What people are saying..

"Park Place Special Events came to my rescue when my wedding was canceled in Vegas last minute. The venue is beyond beautiful, and the price was very reasonable—it actually ended up being cheaper than my original wedding planned in Vegas."

"Park Place is a fairytale come true! Everything was PERFECT on my wedding day, and I'm so glad we chose to celebrate the best day of our lives at such an incredible place."

"Park Place is a beautiful lakefront venue located in the middle of Shafter farmland. A great place for weddings, reunions, or any other party get-together."

"We had our dream wedding at Park Place last month! Wayne and MaryAnn were always available to discuss details and were very knowledgeable and helpful with every aspect of the planning."

"I will forever be grateful to MaryAnn and Wayne for working with Mario and me. Our wedding was April 17, 2021, and everything turned out beautifully."
