Register Now For A Fantastic Coloma Wedding Showcase!


Our sister publication, Real Weddings is super psyched for an upcoming, one-of-a-kind wedding showcase on January 15 in Coloma. If you are a bride-to-be or know one, make sure you check out this...

Celebrate Coloma Weddings: Discover Your Treasure Event!

During this unique event, you’ll have the opportunity to visit the wedding venues in the beautiful and historic Coloma Valley. Tour the facilities, taste food from the venues’ preferred caterers and meet other top wedding vendors from the local area.

All participating venues are within 1.5 miles of each other. The event runs from 1-5 p.m. so you will have plenty of time to visit all the venues!

Tucked away on Hwy 49 between Sacramento and South Lake Tahoe, the Coloma Valley is nestled in California’s Gold Country. With outstanding venues, beautiful scenery, and fabulous vendors, this event is not to be missed! The show producers say, “No matter your budget, theme, or unique vision, we have a venue to meet your needs — and planners to help get you there!”

Each of the venues will be providing their own prizes so you’ll want to make sure you register at each of the venues you tour so you can be in the running for all the fabulous prizes that will be given away. Bring labels brides…hint, hint!

And ladies, here’s a suggestion: If you’re bringing your groom along, you might want to drop him off at the Sierra Nevada House (corner of Hwy 49 and Lotus Rd) for some “guy time.” Sierra Nevada House will have football on the big screen, brews and snacks on hand all day. And, once your fella is settled in for some guy fun, you and your girls can make your way leisurely through the tour.

The event is free to attend, but pre-registration is encouraged. Click here to register in advance!

Visit any of these participating venues from 1-5 p.m. on January 15th. We’ll be at the Coloma Country Inn handing out complimentary copies of the newest issue of Real Weddings Magazine, along entry forms for our next cover model contest!!!

American River Resort – 6019 New River Road in Coloma. 530-622-6700, americanriverresort.com

Bella Vista Bed & Breakfast, Inc.- 581 Cold Springs Road in Placerville. 530-622-3456, bellavistainc.net

Also, the show’s producer advises that despite today’s technology, cell phone reception can be an issue in the Coloma Valley area. Additionally GPS services may loose their connection en route. They suggest you take notes of these locations and get directions off the Web site of the venue you would like to begin at.

For more information, visit colomaweddings.com.

Looking forward to seeing you there!

In September 2003, husband and wife team Terry Carroll and Wendy Sipple launched their little company (originally called Sierrastyle Publishing) with one goal in mind...to produce a high-quality local magazine for the community of Folsom.
