The Huntington is so drop-dead beautiful, I decided on the spot this is where my next wedding is going to be held. Then I went and looked it up. Weddings START at $40,000 and go up to $100,000. That's just for using the venue, not including food, a dress, a diamond-encrusted carriage.

The Huntington is the former private estate of railroad magnate Henry Huntington. This was his WINTER home. Better find myself a railroad magnate. There are 130 acres to explore and we only saw a fraction of that.
