Castle House and Gardens in Santa Cruz, California was the venue for my niece's wedding. It is an absolutely romantic and perfect place to get married. They were married under the redwood trees and the guests were treated to cocktails in the rose garden around the fountain before going to the terrace up at the house for the reception. Castle House and gardens coordinated with the catering and they also do the flower arranging so that everything went very smoothly.
I was able to go early and take pictures of some of the garden before the guests arrived.
There is lots of vertical interest throughout the garden.
More vertical interest.

| There are many arches and arbors scattered about. |
To the right is the chicken house. There is also a pig pen.

| There is also a succulent garden toward the back. I am fascinated by the patterns of the leaves. |
I love the unusual garden decorations. I have no idea what this old tool was for.
To the left is the entrance to the ladies room in an outbuilding in the garden.
Back to the rose garden and fountain.
Front view of the castle house.
Fireplace at the end of the pool terrace. The owners lit the fire when it got dark . The dinner tables were all set out on the adjoining terrace.
I hope you enjoyed the little tour!
Happy gardening.
