Why We Love Sherwood Country Club Weddings
Just south of Thousand Oaks in Ventura County, Sherwood Country Club is a prestigious hideaway, a world-renowned golf course and country club. It’s been the site for some major golf tournaments as well as the set for various movies and TV shows–understandably, since the property is pristine, stately, and gorgeous. The property even gets its name from the 1921 filming of Robin Hood back in the Golden Age of Hollywood (it was nicknamed the Sherwood Forest by the cast and crew). And from the Clubhouse to the scenic golf course, it boasts every luxury you can imagine from those glorious days. If you’re looking to host the wedding of your dreams in the height of SoCal style, look no further than Sherwood Country Club.
Wedding Prep at Sherwood Country Club
Upon entrance up the winding circular driveway to this exclusive club, you’ll first see the Clubhouse, a Georgian-style brick mansion. Grand white columns against the deep red bricks create a classy atmosphere upon first glance, which continues as you walk through the doors. Inside you’ll find elegant decor with antique touches placed throughout. Among the labyrinth of rooms in the bride’s dressing area, with floor-to-ceiling windows along a curved wall. This is the perfect spot for you and your bridal party to relax, be pampered, and make memories together as you await the moment you’ll tie the knot.
Wedding Photography at Sherwood Country Club
Both the classic architecture of the Clubhouse and the sprawling manicured grounds serve as beautiful backdrops to some unforgettable photos.
