Bernardus Lodge is one of the more upscale wedding venues you can find for Carmel weddings - recently listed by Condé Nast Traveler magazine as one of the world's best places to stay. The lush property is perfect for an outdoor wedding setting, followed by premium wine and dinner options. Our couple Jenna and Kent were married at Bernardus Lodge and had an emotional ceremony against the beautiful green backdrop, and danced the night away inside the lodge.
