Great Food and Staff
The food provided at our wedding was varied yet classic and delicious. The staff members were incredibly helpful and were fantastic to our guests. Our guests complimented us on how nice the staff was and how easy they were to work with, as well as complimentary of the food. Would recommend.

Colin was fantastic to work with and made sure everything ran smoothly on the day of the event. We got many compliments on the food (we chose the hors d’oeuvres and buffet options) and an open bar with champagne. The courtyard was a beautiful setting for the ceremony, and felt very secluded and private. Highly recommended for smaller weddings such as ours, which had 35 guests!

Sage's service was incredible!!!
Sage's service was beyond amazing. Colin, their coordinator for our wedding planning and day, was SO kind, and helpful. He was always there for us when we had doubts, questions, and he always had a quick solution in mind! We had our ceremony and reception at Sage, and both things were simply perfect. Guests were so comfortable and had so many good comments about the wedding that I was amazed. Food was super good! The drinks were great as well. They had a variety of selections that made it easy for us to decide based on what we really wanted. It was simply, special. If you are thinking on hiring Sage, you just have to!

The most perfect venue!
We had our ceremony at the Rose Garden and the reception at the lower patio / courtyard / Ideas Lounge. It was absolutely perfect! The garden was still in bloom and the al fresco dining had such a great feel to it. It was nice to have so much space to roam but still feel intimate. The pond was a great feature and it was so nice to feel secluded and in nature. We got so lucky with the weather too! The service was great, the servers were very polite and attentive. The bartender looked out for the bride and groom and made sure we were pacing well enough to not get sloppy. Alita, the venue coordinator, was so great to work with and was easy to communicate with. She worked well with my day of coordinators and she was very accommodating and responsive with my requests along the way.The food was delicious, tender and tasty. Everyone wished there was more of everything! We did buffet style and had a whole suckling pig which got people talking and my Filipino side loved the homage. We had a tiramisu cutting cake and they were able to match our dessert and people were obsessing over the tiramisu cake they served. The french fry bar for late night snack was clutch too! I can't imagine a better venue. This was more than everything we had envisioned and hoped for.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
