Charming and stylish, casual yet sophisticated. Ron and Yesenia's wedding festivities at The Perry House in Monterey so aptly captured the style and personality of this captivating couple. The enchanting bride was adorned in lovely lace and crowned with a darling wreath of pretty blooms. Out in the lush landscaped garden, Ron waited patiently by the rustic stone wall, anxious for the long-awaited first look at his beautiful bride.
A bright and sunny day greeted guests as the vows were said under the garden pergola. The clear blue skies were a perfect match with the flirty bridesmaids' dresses, abundant hydrangea bouquets and even the fun ribbon streamers that saluted the newlyweds. The celebration continued in the elegant Perry House with plenty of dancing, music and fun and a lavish buffet. Every detail of the day conveyed a relaxed and happy vibe, right down to the simply chic wedding cake, adorned with blooms and rustic twine.
Vintage architecture, awesome views of Monterey Bay and city lights, and incredible, innovative cuisine. Your wedding event at the Perry House is all that in a convenient Monterey location just one block from downtown.
The stately Queen Anne Victorian was originally built in 1860 by ship captain Manuel Perry; the home is on Monterey's "Path of History" tour. The quaint residence was renovated in 2010 and transformed into an intimate wedding venue. The beautifully decorated interiors offer a relaxed atmosphere, and ensure you'll have little need for additional décor or rentals.
The Perry House can comfortably accommodate up to 130 seated guests outdoors, and up to 80 guests indoors. The second floor Harbor View Lounge is the perfect place for your pre-wedding preparation. Relax in the plush sitting area and enjoy the balcony view before your walk down the aisle. You may choose to hold your ceremony in the delightful garden, surrounded by fragrant blossoms with the backdrop of the Monterey Bay. Two tenting options are available, just in case Mother Nature fails to cooperate! Alternatively, choose an off-site beach or church ceremony followed by a wonderful Perry House reception.
The festivities commence with a cocktail hour in the Carriage House. With its bar, fireplace, and cocktail seating, your guests can enjoy drink and passed hors d'oeuvres under the stunning stained glass domed ceiling.
