HMB Wedding Location
Long Branch as a Half Moon Bay wedding location offers guests a range of activities before and after the wedding.
For folks planning a wedding with their guests in mind, the Long Branch of Half Moon Bay is the ideal wedding location. Rather than guests filing into a church and squirming in a church pew as they await the bride’s arrival, Long Branch guests can roam the western town, check out the saloon and gambling tables, and stroll the surrounding pastures. As the big moment arrives, wedding guests enter the quaint chapel as the bride approaches, sometimes on horseback.
After the ceremony, the reception at our Half Moon Bay wedding location is more than food and champagne. Guests are issued a cup of authentic chips to try their luck at roulette, crepes, or black jack. Other wedding guests may choose to pan for gold or use the archery range. Others may prefer to sit around the open fire pits. History buffs can study the many old west artifacts around the town.
Meanwhile the bride and groom can meander amidst their wedding guests, seeing them well entertained and enjoying the different activities offered. The enormous barbecue gets fired up which adds to the smells that get the taste buds watering. The huge bar from the movie set of The Quick and the Dead is open and wedding guests keep a lookout for Sharon Stone. Country music pervades the entire town and dancing breaks out. This location 3 miles from Half Moon Bay allows for complete privacy for dancing the night away.
Photo opportunities are everywhere to the delight of the wedding photographer. Wedding guests break out their own cameras to catch the moment. The barnyard critters cooperate and are used to being photographed. The goat poses on a pile of rocks; the potbelly pig just lies in place; the horses nuzzle the guests. The bride and groom ride off into the sunset, knowing they have treated their guests to a Half Moon Bay wedding experience they’ll never forget.
