Romance is in the air
Willow and Oak Estates wedding venue is the real-life love story of high school sweethearts Emily and Steven Herring. Originally built by the Palmer family in the early 2000s, this Creston estate was designed with legacy in mind. From the Spanish-style home to the hand-dug pond, orchard, and signature barn, the property saw its first wedding in 2005, when Emily and Steven were married beneath the oaks she grew up with.
Today, they welcome couples from around the world. With Steven’s expertise as founder of All About Events, recognized as 2025 Best Rentals by California Wedding Day, and Emily’s deep connection to the land, they’ve created one of Paso Robles’ most heartfelt destination wedding venues.
