Born from a promise and nurtured through decades, Deer Park Villa embodies a legacy of love and commitment to creating unforgettable Northern California wedding experiences. The story begins in 1927, when Joe and Antoinette Ghiringhelli held their wedding-night dinner at a restaurant tucked into the hills of Fairfax. Charmed by the special property—originally opened in 1916 as a lodge—the young newlyweds made a promise to each other that one day they would own it. In 1937, their dream became a reality.
