White Sand Beach Ceremonies
Exchange vows on a white sand beach with the lake stretching out behind you and the sun dropping toward the horizon. Guests find their seats on the sand.
Waterfront & Lakefront Wedding Venue
A white sand beach, a private pier, and a sunset ceremony on the lake
On the Water
An Actual Lakefront, Not a Lake View
Plenty of venues advertise a water view. The Silos at Velocity Island sits directly on the lake, with a white sand beach at the shoreline and a private pier that extends out over the water. Your ceremony faces the lake at golden hour. Your first-look photos happen on the pier. This is a true waterfront and lakefront wedding venue, not a ballroom with a window.
The property is in Woodland, California, 20 miles from Sacramento and within 90 minutes of the Bay Area. For couples who want a beach or lakefront wedding in California without flying to the coast, this is the closest thing to a destination wedding that is still a short drive from home.
The Setting
A Beach, a Pier, and a Sunset
Three things almost no other lakefront venue can offer together.
A Private Pier Over the Water
The pier extends out over the lake, perfect for first looks, sunset photos, cocktail hour, and a sparkler send-off over the water at the end of the night.
Golden-Hour Sunsets
The ceremony grounds face west across the water, so the light is behind you at golden hour. It is the kind of backdrop photographers plan an entire timeline around.
More Than a View
A Lake Your Guests Can Actually Use
Most lakefront venues give you a view. We give your guests the water.
Because the venue is part of Velocity Island, your guests can paddleboard, wakeboard, swim at the beach, and enjoy the water park next door. A lakefront wedding here is not just a photo backdrop. It is a full day on the water, which is something no other lakefront wedding venue in the region offers.
- Paddleboarding and wakeboarding on the lake
- Swimming at the white sand beach
- Aqua park and water slides next door
- Sunset bonfires on the beach
