Spring


Springtime on the coast is like the universe is waking up from a long winter hibernation and gifting our hillsides with a rainbow of color we are well on our way to Mid March and the wildflowers are peeking through and starting to beautify the coastal cliffs and hiking trails. We have such an amazing variety of flowers to see, it always amazes me to see the rainbow of color and variety during my seaside hikes. .

Spring is also a time to book a wedding. We are bursting at the seems with prospective brides and booked weddings. 2011 will be a great year for weddings at the coast. All of our couples are wonderful and we are looking forward to making each event unique and special for each couple. Our Executive Chef, Phillip Kaufman, is constantly working on menu's for the upcoming events and we love to see what amazing items he comes up with to match the special couple's vision.

We hope you have a chance to enjoy the rainbows on the cliffs this spring.
