An Intimate Airbnb Wedding in the Hills of Tehachapi, California

There’s something magical about intimate weddings—when every detail feels intentional and every guest feels cherished. Jenni and Todd’s wedding in Tehachapi, California, was just that: personal, heartfelt, and completely unforgettable.

Nestled in the quiet hills of Tehachapi, their Airbnb venue offered sweeping views, golden light, and the kind of stillness that makes you pause and take it all in. This picturesque property became the perfect setting for Jenni and Todd to say “I do” surrounded by only their closest friends and family.

Its expansive property, rustic-meets-modern aesthetic, and panoramic mountain views provided the dreamiest backdrop.

Weddings like Jenni and Todd’s are a reminder that intimate, at-home style weddings aren’t just a trend—they’re a return to what matters most. Airbnb properties like this one in Tehachapi allow couples to create a space that feels less like an event venue and more like home. There’s a freedom in that—a permission to slow down, to make decisions based on meaning over tradition, and to let the setting speak for itself.

It also allows for a full weekend experience. Some of the couple’s guests stayed on-site or nearby, turning the event into a mini getaway complete with a welcome dinner the night before and cozy brunch the next morning.

As a wedding planner, I often talk with couples about how they want their day to feel. And for Jenni and Todd, the feeling was clear from the very beginning: intentional, and full of love and lots laughter and dancing.

Whether you’re planning a celebration for 500 or 50, Jenni and Todd’s day is proof that some of the most meaningful weddings happen in beautiful, quiet places.

Airbnb weddings, when planned thoughtfully, can feel effortless and luxurious all at once. With the right team, after all you are creating a venue from scratch, an eye for design, and a couple like Jenni and Todd who prioritize heart over hype, you get a celebration that lingers in your memory forever.

If you’re considering a wedding at an Airbnb property, I’d love to help you bring your vision to life. Let’s make magic together—intentionally and beautifully.
