I truly had such a good experience with wedding planning with Villa de Amore and Myla and Mandy. If you are not much of a planner or want to be more hands off for your big day, this is definitely a venue I would look into thoroughly. They have so many resources and vendors all wrapped into one price and streamlined. Since they do weddings four days a week, the team is well prepared for almost anything and has thought through the entire day from start to finish. As a pride, my advice would be to be as specific and organized as possible when communicating with the team, as they do this often they are well prepared, but it made for a more seamless planning process because I was diligent in prepping information, creative design choices, and confirmed every step of the way. I give the venue 10 out of 10 stars, my pain point was with the DJ vendor. While I think they try to do a good job, they're not hitting the mark. When I mention about following up and confirming, you need to be as specific with them as possible. Outline everything and don't leave anything to chance. In my experience, they were disorganized and had mixed communication- though our dancing and evening wasn't effected the planning process was. All in all, I would recommend VDA has your place to get married and trust to execute your big day. Happy to speak with any bride looking at this venue find me @sincerely_siena on IG read more

I can not say enough about this venue. We got married there two weeks ago and everything was absolutely perfect. I can honestly say there was not one thing that went wrong. From our perspective and the guests. HUGE KUDOS to David, Mandi, Michelle, Kylie, Amber, and the catering staff. They worked with me so graciously up until the last minute. I changed décor and floral design about a month before the event and they were so kind and made sure everything was exactly what I wanted. The communication was very timely and clear. This venue really works with you to make sure everything aligns with your vision. Mandi and Amber went above and beyond for all of the design and all our guests keep telling us how they felt each event felt like a brand new experience (ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, and dancing). Michelle was in charge of florals and it was exactly what I pictured in my mind. She matched my colors, vision and vibe directly to what I wanted. Kylie was our coordinator and she was truly amazing. She kept our bridal parties in line (we are a little rowdy) and made sure each event flowed perfectly for the day. Our guests really complimented the catering staff as they were seamless and made sure dinner was a smooth success. The food was great and the steaks were huge! AJ was our DJ and he did an amazing job on making sure the dancefloor was always filled. Reliving the day for this review only makes me smile because it honestly was a perfect day. From my perspective and the guests, it was a day that had no hiccups, no drama, nothing was out of place. I can truly say that Villa De Amore and all of their team members are amazing at what they do and I HIGHLY recommend considering this venue for the wedding day of your dreams! read more

DREAM VENUE!! had an unforgettable weekend thanks to everyone over at villa de amore!! Our guests were in awe with how gorgeous and spectacular this venue was. The Design team, Kylie, took my inspiration and turned it into something more beautiful than we ever envisioned. Every detail was immaculate. With so much going into it I did not want to set my hopes up to high but truly out did herself. I'm still speechless and she was so fun to work with. Daryl, the chef, since the day we went to our tasting we were is disbelief that such amazing food could be served at a wedding. We dine out a lot and never did I think venue food would surpass my rating from a 5 star restaurant. I remember leaving the tasting saying it was better than any meal I ever had. They give you options and you can mix and match but the plates were perfectly curated that they needed no changes, we were over the moon that our guests would be able to feast on Chef Daryls food, best I've ever had. Not exaggerating. Our officiant Father Huerta who we selected from the options the venue gave us could not have been a better match for us. Knowing both our family's speak English and Spanish he offfered to do the ceremony bilingual. It was a hit!!!! He did it perfectly and it went smoothly. It was an honor to have him marry us. The Dj, AJ, from Ross creations set the tone for the night, he felt the vibes and perfectly selected all the jams that made the night unforgettable. He kept the vibe going and executed all the songs we choose for our dance and entrances without any issues. He was a hit!! Also bilingual which we loved!! Michelle with floral, was a pleasure to work with and all of the florals incorporated in our day looked like it was taken from a fairytale. They were perfect, fresh, and presentation was straight out of a movie. Our photographer, Nathan, was our absolute favorite. When looking into their different photographers they offered his work was true art. The way he captures every perfect moment, we fell in love with his style instantly. He was super friendly, open, welcoming, fun & knows what he's doing and does it extremely well. Getting photos of your day is one thing but Nathan provided more than just that to us, thinking about how I get to show these amazing shots to our future family one day gets me emotional. They aren't cheesey, forced, or played out poses. He truly captures everything in such a unique, fun, and original way. I will treasure these photos for a lifetime to come. Last but not least, a true gem, Amber, our day of coordinator. I wanted to give her the biggest shout out. I can not stress how much Amber played a huge roll on why my day was so amazing. During this whole process from the time we booked the venue, she has been so involved. Always letting us know she's reachable and available for any questions. She helped in so many ways, made the best suggestions for any situation we had and found resolutions. I'm not sure how many times she had to resend stuff to us but she did it with so much patience and understanding. She made sure she guided us and was there in anyway she could leading up to our big day. The day of rehearsal she welcomed our bridal party with the most genuine smile and personality, she was the sweetest. She made sure we were prepped for the following day. The day of, she was there every moment, how she did it almost so effortlessly, I don't know. I want to believe the reason why our wedding went so amazing and smooth was mainly due to Amber. She hit every cue, everything was so well organized, I did not feel like I was alone or didn't know what was going on. She made sure everything went accordingly and did it with a smile and such ease. She had me emotional when I couldn't not get help bustling my dress and putting on my veil, and she stepped in without hesitation. She did not let me down one bit and she's a true professional. We love Amber!!! That's our girl now!!! She was there's constant till the grand exit. She had all of our stuff ready to go once the night ended and even helped put it in the car herself. Like what!!! Customer service 1000000/10. THANK YOU AMBER!!!!! It's almost unbelievable that everything was included in the venue price. At first I was not sure what to expect since this was all inclusive, I feared that there would be a reason as to why we would have to select from their options but I was wrong. Villa De Amore only offers the most top notch experience, through and through. I spent 3 years looking for venues until we found this place, and it checked every single box. THANK YOU VILLA DE AMORE & ENTIRE TEAM, PHENOMENAL JOB!!! You gave us our dream wedding at a fraction of the cost compared to any other place. You will not find this anywhere else. THIS IS IT!!!! So many pple on the team not mentioned also played a huge part, THANK YOU!!! read more

Couldn't have asked for a better wedding or day of/planning experience! Not only is this location a beautiful dream BUT the staff is absolutely fantastic. Everyone was I ncredibly helpful throughout the entire experience. We were able to book the venue, do our food tasting, the design appointment with Mandi, rehearsal, and our wedding day all with detailed information and assistance. We couldn't have had the best wedding without them and especially since we were out of state while planning all of this. The design team made it so easy to pick out decor and stick to our vision. We put our trust in the team and they absolutely delivered. Our day was beautiful and the flowers were just breathtaking. We used all of their recommended vendors as well. There is a reason they are recommended! We loved working with DJ Ross and his photobooth company and LMP studios for photography. We even used their suggested vendors for our cake (Cakes by Debbie). Everything went smoothly especially since these vendors have worked with Villa de Amore so many times. I have to give a special shoutout to Havilah for coordinating our perfect day. She was an absolute delight to work with and she is just so genuine and sweet. We never felt rushed by her, but instead always supported! She was very detailed in everything she needed to run our day and went over every step and list with us. She kept us on track for the day but also helped to keep it fun and moving for us. She was so nice and helpful with our families and bridal party as well. We couldn't have asked for anyone better. She is also exceptionally organized! read more

Villa de Amore was truly the wedding venue of our dreams. From the moment we began planning, the abundance of resources they offered (e.g., beautiful props, customizable color palettes, and thoughtful design elements) made the entire process feel seamless. It was incredibly helpful to have everything we needed in one place, and the ease of coordinating florals, décor, and overall design brought our vision to life effortlessly. On the day of our wedding, the experience was nothing short of exceptional. Our coordinators, Myla and Amber, and designer Mandi went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. Their attention to detail, calm presence, and genuine care for us made the day feel relaxed, joyful, and unforgettable. We felt supported every step of the way, and it allowed us to truly enjoy every moment. My husband and I cannot recommend Villa de Amore highly enough as it is a stunning venue backed by an extraordinary team that genuinely cares about making your day magical. read more

I had the absolute best experience working with this team for my wedding! Amber was my coordinator, Mandi was my designer, and Michelle handled all things floral and they were each incredible in their own way. Amber, thank you for being such a wonderful coordinator and always so prompt with your responses. From start to finish, everything ran perfectly. On the wedding day, when the unexpected rain came and I started to feel stressed, you handled everything with such calmness and professionalism it truly put me at ease. Mandi, you've been with me since the very beginning, and I so appreciate your patience and creativity throughout the whole process. Even though the "big" flower didn't work out because of the rain, the smaller florals on the arch were stunning, and the second colorful arch you designed was such a showstopper I received so many compliments! Every part of the design was absolutely beautiful. Michelle, thank you for bringing my floral vision to life with the iron gate arch. It came out exactly how I had hoped, and the colorful reception florals were even better than I imagined. I was completely obsessed with the combinations you chose! This team went above and beyond to make our day unforgettable. I couldn't recommend them more! read more

Absolutely loved this venue and the coordinating staff. They provided excellent all inclusive suggestions and ideas from beginning to end. Not to mention the food was amazing! They would be the ideal wedding venue for anyone! The only reason I gave this a 3 star and not 5 was because of the required inclusive DJ - Ross. We had sent him the music lists weeks in advance to prepare for our wedding day. On the day of the wedding and as I was sitting at my sweetheart table, he came to me and asked for the list. I had replied that this was sent weeks ago which in turn he said I should have sent it again. Now, this was very unprofessional as I would not have the time to pull this out during my wedding. I had asked my friend to work on this and luckily she managed to find the list. On top of this, many of my guests requested songs and none were played. We are a music loving couple and our guests were as well. This was one thing that they mentioned were the only setback of the wedding. As much as Ross is a veteran at the venue, he was not friendly to my guests. I hope that in the future, the venue will decide on allowing other approved vendors as this was my biggest regret. read more

Got married and had the best day of my life here at Villa De Amore. I would recommend this beautiful wedding venue to everyone. We received endless compliments about how beautiful the venue was. It's an all inclusive venue so it comes with a coordinator, DJ, Design team, Floral, officiant, and photographer. Everyone was so helpful and made the big day so special for my wife and I. We loved working with our coordinator Havilah. Havilah knows what she's doing and made every little detail we wanted come to life. I can go on and on but Villa De Amore is such a special place for anyone who gets married here! read more

3 stars feels generous given our experience, but here is our honest review of our wedding at VDA in May 2025. Villa de Amore is undeniably a stunning venue. It truly is beautiful, and all of our guests kept commenting on how gorgeous everything looked. The setting made for a romantic and picturesque backdrop, and for that, we're really grateful. However, despite how beautiful it was, we were left disappointed by how unorganized the actual day felt, especially after planning for over a year to make everything just right. One of the biggest issues was that our coordinator was switched at the very last second from Havilah to Amber. While we're not trying to completely discredit Amber's effort, she simply didn't do a good job managing the flow of the day. She started our ceremony late, which completely threw off our timeline and left us with barely any time for dancing at the end of the night, something we were really looking forward to. The whole day felt rushed and scattered. Just one other example of the unorganization: during our ceremony, the bread for our communion was not put out. That moment was meant to be sacred and symbolic, and its absence made it feel incomplete and disappointing. On top of that, we paid for a second food tasting and finalized specific dishes with the chef, only to be served something entirely different on the wedding day. The pasta dish had overcooked noodles with hardly any sauce, and the ravioli came with a completely different sauce than what we had agreed upon. We're incredibly thankful that we hired our own photographer, because she and her assistant ended up stepping in and helping keep things on track, filling in gaps that should have been handled by the coordinator. In the end, while the venue itself is gorgeous and set the stage for beautiful memories, the lack of organization and attention to detail sadly overshadowed what could have been a perfect day. We understand that mistakes happen, but it truly felt like all the time, money, and emotional energy we spent over the past year planning this once-in-a-lifetime event went completely out the window. read more

Ruined my special day, the coordinator was unprofessional and could not keep anything together, half my guest mistaking thought that when we taking pictures we actually left and my coordinator did nothing to stop anyone from leaving. This resulted in me having to cancel serval planned dances as the guests were half gone. The facility did Not provide trash service which was not discussed and so my deposit was held unless I took all of my trash home Myself! Please Brides beware Villa de Amore will trick you and ruin your day too! To the business owner . This is not fraud! How dare you! More proof of how unprofessional this facility is! Attacking the Bride again, 6,25,2005 was my wedding date. Thanks for the further trauma read more

If you want to find the best wedding venue, look no further!! From start to finish, I had the best experience ever! Everything was perfect, from the design to the coordinator to the timeline! I was not stressed out at all, and everything went so seamlessly. I love how you don't feel like you're in one area from ceremony, reception, cake cutting, and dance floor. 10/10 highly recommend!! read more

I was married in January 2022 and it was the absolute best experience I could ask for! All of the staff is so nice and they know exactly what they are doing. Wedding planning was so stressful for me but everything that the villa did was a breeze! They took the planning out of my hands and left me with a breath of fresh air! All I had to do was tell them what I wanted and they made my vision come to life! I would recommend this venue over and over again. I could cry writing this, THANK YOU SO MUCH VILLA DE AMORE! read more

This venue is a 10/10. We had our wedding 10.18.24. The best day ever. We had the best experience with this venue and I am so grateful. The owners, design team, florals, catering, and coordination were wonderful. They helped throughout the entire wedding process and I never had too many questions. I didn't have a wedding planner, however, this team guided me beautifully. My guests were in awe of the venue, service, food, bartender, and organization. The wedding flowed beautifully. Karen, my coordinator was on top of everything. They worked with whatever extra vendor I had included and incorporated them into their team so everyone was clued in on what's going on. Thank you VDA!

My first visit to this breathtaking venue was last week 20 May 2021 for a truly beautiful wedding. The happy couple chose this place wisely. The views were lovely. The on-site staff were super friendly and helpful and attentive. Only complaint: the waitstaff could use a lot of training about clearing tables. The ceremony was outside with a view of the neighbouring vineyard as was the cocktail area. The dining room was a great size and opened up into a couple of courtyards. There were picturesque spots and staged seating areas with chandeliers all over the grounds. It was so well thought out. We eat and danced and laughed and celebrated with adorable bride and groom until the evening. It couldn't have been a better day if we tried! Well done, Villa de Amore! read more

Avoid this place at all cost. They are good about charging you up front, never refund your money in case of emergency cancellation more than 100 days before ! On top of it the owner Eileen wouldn't even discuss the possibility of rain check for future event which could land them bigger profit. To me that is bad business practice will deter future clients events. We are extremely disappointed with their bad handling of our event would never recommend or go there again . read more

I just had my wedding at Villa de Amore this past weekend and had to leave a review to express how incredible my experience was with the venue, its team, and preferred vendors from start to finish. TLDR: I would highly recommend this venue to anyone. We had an amazing experience with them and we cannot sing enough praises for all their in house (design, catering, florist) teams, preferred vendors, and most importantly, our coordinator, Havilah. The long version: The venue itself was gorgeous and we loved that they only book one wedding per day so you and your guests are able to enjoy the entire area. Planning, designing, and coordinating was an absolute dream and the vendors we used (LMP for photography & Ross Creations for the DJ) were amazing. VDA's coordinator and design teams were so accommodating to all requests, big and little, and the display tables, table set ups, decor, etc. looked just as we envisioned. Mandi, the designer, took all the inspo pictures we sent her and somehow made them even better. Michelle, the florist, was incredibly sweet and knowledgeable. I'm not much of a flower person so had little opinion to work with and her floral designs came out gorgeous. Catering was amazing too and portions were huge -- I would definitely recommend their shrimp orecchiette entree! All guests that managed to snag their late night tacos sang praises for those as well. There never seemed to be too long of a wait for drinks with their bartenders too. Their preferred vendors we went with for photography and DJing were amazing as well and reached out to us immediately after we signed the venue contract. It was so relieving to see them work so well and side by side with the coordinator and venue. The main MVP of the experience and day of wedding was our coordinator Havilah. She was beyond amazing and handled all requests (including day of) with such grace, kindness, and professionalism. The groom and I, including our guests and wedding party, were blown away by her. From day one, she made it clear she was always in our corner and was ready to handle anything that came up. I couldn't thank her enough at the end of the night for everything she did for us. If you book this venue, I 100% recommend asking if she could be your coordinator! read more

Just had my wedding here on 4/4/25. And honestly, it was the happiest day of our lives thanks to Villa de Amore (VDA). My guests can't stop raving at how beautiful the venue, decor, delicious food, landscape of it all and most important, how effortlessly everything flowed and service being beyond EXCEPTIONAL. They really have it down to the tee. All-inclusive really is all-inclusive (unlike other venues that uncharge for every thing extra)!!! The morning of my wedding, one of my bridesmaids mentioned it was the most calm morning she ever experienced as a bridesmaid. I was worried i forgot something but really, VILLA DE AMORE had everything covered so I didn't need to stress at all. Myla was my Coordinator and OMG. The BEST. I can't even put into words how effortless she made my day and had so many compliments from my guests about her too. The way all the staff at VDA accommodated to my every million request and emails (sorry!!) with such grace and professionalism was absolutely top tier. They really captured the essence of my vision and truly everything came out 10x more beautiful than I imagined. Without a doubt, hands down, nothing but 5 stars from this bride (and groom). Thank you to VDA (and my husband) for giving me the wedding of my dreams. Oh! And before we booked VDA... my now husband was nervous to book because he wanted a small intimate court- wedding with just our parents (because he is so shy and was scared of being center of attention). He's SO glad i didn't cave to his requests and he's so happy we had our wedding here!!! We can't wait to get our photos to relive the day through the memories!! THANK YOU VILLA DE AMORE!! read more

We chose Villa de Amore for our March 22, 2025, wedding primarily because of its stunning grounds and all-inclusive offerings, and for the most part, it delivered on its promise. The property provided countless picturesque spots for photographs, and the floral arrangements and overall décor matched the bride's vision perfectly. Pros: Having the majority of the services--catering, photography, coordination, etc.--in one place reduced much of the stress that often accompanies planning a wedding and finding outside vendors, and this convenience was a major benefit. The florals were amazing- Michelle and her team did a wonderful job and knew exactly what we asked for. The decorations and little details were also perfect- Mandi and the design team nailed it. Our guests had high praise for the bartender (I wish we had his name!), who was incredibly social and kept everyone's spirits lifted. Brian Graham, our officiant, was also phenomenal; he thoroughly explained how to obtain the marriage license and made us feel completely comfortable from the moment we began the ceremony process. The coordinators, Havilah and Myla, were very pleasant to work with during the planning phase and were responsive to our emails during their office hours. Cons: It was difficult to track down our coordinators if something was needed while the celebration was in full swing. Several miscommunications before the big day also added stress, including confusion about the date of the rehearsal and sending old coordinator paperwork. Despite most guests saying that they enjoyed the food, sadly, even though we gave the catering team a separate tip, a number of guests did not receive their salads, and others were served the wrong meal despite correct designations on the table cards. We also had planned a table dash but when the time came for this, our coordinator suggested having each table come into the bar area for pictures. This would have taken forever, which was the entire point of quickly going table to table, so we said no and stuck with the original plan. During the table dash, the DJ did not play the songs that he was given (maybe he wasn't aware that it was happening - not sure). Guests noticed that the ballroom and ceremony aisle were still being set up when they arrived, which was off-putting and did not create the seamless, polished environment we had envisioned. We had also asked for the "cigar lounge" to be set up outside for guests, but this was not done. We had also arranged for any pre-paid meals from canceled guests to be boxed up for us, but that never happened. The bride spent countless hours making everything clear and organized for the venue, so missing on these minor details was a huge disappointment, especially considering what you are paying. Some additional communication lapses were frustrating, as well. We discovered that gifts from our guests were placed in the groom's car, but no one informed us of this, leading to confusion at the end of the evening about where these were. The groom was also instructed not to open the bride's gift right away but was never given further direction on when he should open it. Another unfortunate incident involved an extra photographer that the bride's parents had arranged - and the venue was informed of months in advance. The venue apparently did not receive the paperwork needed from him, but we were only informed of that after he arrived at the wedding. The venue did not allow him to stay. We should have been informed well in advance of wedding day that he had not yet submitted the correct paperwork so we could communicate with him to make sure the venue got what was needed. We were not super impressed with the photographers provided by the venue, and wished they would have suggested some photos with a little more creativity. There is so much going on with the bride and groom on your wedding day it is hard to also have to worry about doing fun and creative photos. A little more creative vision and instruction from the venue's photographers would have been nice. Overall, we still thought our wedding was beautiful and a special day, but the lack of communication and attention to detail in certain areas was definitely disappointing. If reviewing on a 10-point scale, we'd give this venue a 6.5/10. read more

I got married here on July 7th, 2024 and it was PERFECT. The stress of wedding planning was taken off my shoulders by the amazing coordinating, design, floral, photography, and catering team of Villa de Amore. They were so flexible, communicative, attentive, and detail-oriented. They all made my wedding magical. On the day of, Havilah, the coordinator was an absolute angel. She is absolutely phenomenal. The schedule of events went seamlessly and we had time to do everything! We are so happy to say we truly enjoyed our wedding day. From the first day we toured this place, my husband and I just knew! The pricing is also hard to beat considering their all-inclusive covers just about everything except the cake and desserts. They truly have it all! Don't hesitate to tour and book this venue. They are all so kind and really make you feel right at home. Thank you so much Villa de Amore! read more

Wonderful, beautiful, tasteful, elegant, sublime wedding/event venue. We were here for a wedding, and it was one of those "everything was perfect" events. Cocktails on the front patio, with superb views of the surrounding vineyards. Gorgeous area for the ceremony itself, featuring a large open gazebo for the couple to exchange vows. Later, it was where the dinner was held. It was a bit chilly so there were heaters set out to help keep guests warm. I spent some time wandering the premises in between the main events, and there are so many pretty spots for taking pictures - an arch with a chandelier looking out onto vineyards (with a spectacular sunset too, if you're lucky), or a rustic little bench in a private nook, were just a couple that caught my eye. The food and drinks were excellent. I especially liked the crab cake appetizers, and there was also a flatbread that disappeared VERY quickly. The drinks were great - custom drinks themed for the bride and groom. Everything ran very smoothly - just great organization and attention to detail. read more

I would definitely recommend this wedding venue for anybody looking for a team that is always on your side. The Villa is all-inclusive, covering floral, design, catering, and day-of coordination. They have vendor partnerships (included in your cost) for photography, cake/desserts, DJ, and wedding minister. This venue is so efficient, professional, and accessible. They were so communicative, especially when we had to postpone our wedding due to Covid. The pricing is reasonable for the amount of security and effectiveness they offer. The venue is absolutely beautiful and our guests had a great experience overall. Every single vendor is top-notch at their jobs. Coordination was right on, food and desserts were amazing, photography was beautiful, the DJ was fun, and the minister was good. Floral and design were gorgeous. It is really apparent in the wedding industry that it can be hard to feel like vendors care about how special your day is. The Villa was really successful in handling things professionally but always being attentive to our needs and our requests. They were so generous when we needed to postpone our wedding from 2020 to 2021, and even hosted us on our original date in 2020 so we could have our official ceremony. In 2021, the day of our ceremony and reception was literally perfect and the Villa handled everything without a hitch, which was so important after waiting so long to finally celebrate. I have so much appreciation for the Villa and would recommend this venue to anybody looking for a beautiful, all-inclusive place to host a wedding. read more

What a beautiful venue! I was lucky enough to attend a wedding at villa de Amore, tucked away in beautiful Temecula. My girlfriend and I attended the reception, and arrived with ease as there were plenty of signs that led us to the private lot. Everything from the sparkling lights on the trees to the beautiful quaint ballroom. The courtyard was beautiful, there were beautiful velvet couches to sit on and everything was so magical! Staff members were nice the bartender was always smiling and the drinks were amazing. Weddings at wineries have always been so beautiful, but this one takes the cake (no pun intended). Honestly, I think it was because of the size of the courtyard & ballroom that it made the wedding so beautiful. I didn't have a chance to take many pictures because we were having such a wonderful time celebrating the bride and groom! read more

Just got married here (February 2023) and had the absolute best time. The day could not have gone better. The venue is beyond beautiful and has many different sections that help break up the different moments of the wedding. One thing we really enjoyed about the venue is that it is all inclusive. That means you are paying just one place and everything is arranged through them. That means no other vendors you have to worry about if you do not want to. This saves yourself from a lot of potential headaches and mishaps. All the decorations are on-site and you can customize your wedding in so many ways. It is truly a magical experience. As for the day itself, the best part (aside from marrying the love of my life) is how organized the staff is. They are all on headsets and communicating every step of the way. You have a request at any moment, and its handled. For me, I wanted a cold brew that was available during our cocktail hour and we were too busy to enjoy because of pictures. I made the request right before our grand entrance into dinner and it was already sitting there at our sweetheart table a few moments later. Karen, thank you and all the other helpers so much for that. To expand on that, there are a few options you have to choose for photography if you go with the in-house options. You can see their styles when you choose. Our main photographer was a woman named Nicole. She was an absolute blast to work with and made that photo hour fly by. She was so fun and kept the energy high and entertaining which helped us from burning out from all those photos. I would give her and her team 5 stars by themselves. We got numerous compliments after the wedding about the food. First, the food was absolutely delicious. It was so yummy and we wish we werent so stressed from all the direct attention that day to enjoy it more. No worries though because the team boxed it up for us so we could enjoy later. The portions were also very generous. None of our guests left wishing they had more to eat. It also helps that there is late night tacos which helped anyone who might have wanted a snack later in the evening. We were just so beyond amazed with the whole team there and couldn't be more grateful for making our day magical. We aren't too high maintenance, but they let us feel like we could ask for anything and it wouldn't be a bother. They gave us a peak into what royalty must feel like. Thank you to Karen again, and Mandi for her own personal touch she did for us because she was attentive to even small conversations we had months ago during the planning stages. Amazing! Oh and DJ Ross was an absolute legend. The guests loved what he played and we loved how he worked with us. I know I am missing a lot in this review, so just know we loved every aspect of this venue. I love that this will always be a special place and all the people involved will always be special to us. If your day is anything close to ours, it will be the most memorable moment of your life. Looking back, we honestly can say we wouldn't change a thing. Go with this place everyone, your guests won't be disappointed. Oh, last thing. The price is very comparable to many other places in the area. We looked at cheaper places to try and save money, but after you go and outsource all the food, decorations, music, etc, it ends up being the same, if not more, than Villa de Amore for a worse place (in our opinion). This made choosing VDA a no brainer. read more

I couldn't have asked for a more perfect venue for our wedding. If you are getting married, I would HIGHLY recommend an all inclusive venue and even more so picking Villa De Amore. From the beginning, everyone was so friendly and easy to work with. They were incredibly helpful and responsive. The venue is absolutely beautiful. What sold us was how easy it was to plan, they take care of every single detail, including decor, coordination, florals, DJ, etc. and the best part is all the vendors work together all the time so they know how to operate as one flawless team. David (owner), Mandi (design), and Tori (coordinator) were the team we mainly worked with and they completely made my wedding dreams come true, making it a beautiful and stress free day. I could talk for hours about how much I loved this venue and team. THANK YOU VDA, every single one of you are absolutely the best. read more

We recently had our wedding at Villa de Amore in June and it was absolutely perfect! We couldn't have asked for anything more. This venue is beautiful and nothing short of exceptional in every regard. I would give VDA 6 stars if I could. It has everything you could ever need for a wedding. Villa de Amore is very deserving of its spot among the top 15 wedding venues in the US. The staff was super accommodating and easy to work with throughout the entire process. They provided just about everything we needed for our wedding day. This includes catering, bartending staff, floral arrangements, furniture, decorations, wedding officiant, photographers, DJ services, and so much more that all come included with the package. Every detail was handled with the utmost care and professionalism. The food was incredible, easily the best wedding food we've ever had and many of our guests shared this same sentiment. The owners, day-of coordinators, and design team were lovely and they ensured that the entire weekend went as planned. Their attention to detail and commitment to making our day perfect were evident in every moment. We couldn't have asked for a better team to bring our vision to life. We want to give a huge shoutout specifically to Eileen, David, Mandi, and Havilah for working with us every step of the way. Villa de Amore is amazing and we cannot recommend it enough! We hope to one day be lucky enough to attend a wedding at this venue as guests so we can experience it all again. read more

VDA is a great place for any special occasion. Our wedding was in July 2024, and one of the hottest days of the month . Despite the heat, it was a beautiful ceremony and everything went great and beyond our expectations . The staff worked well together as a team and delivered. This is a special recognition for LMP photographer, Sheryl & Team and the Videographer Warren. They did an excellent job coordinating their times and movement to capture our specific events of us, family and friends. They followed us throughout the event and took great photos and videos of the beautiful scenes . They made great recommendations throughout the afternoon and night and were very open to any request. They were patient, respectful and understanding of our needs and wants . I wound definitely recommend these teams and Villa De Amore. Thank you. C and J read more

I had my wedding 2/18/23 and I had such a magical experience with Villa de Amore. My day of coordinator was Brittany was so great at communicating with me and navigating us to stay on schedule in a gentle way. I did not feel stressed at all. The venue itself is gorgeous and had so many places to take photos and is spacious. I appreciated the venue being all inclusive in which they have venders that are familiar with the area and prioritize weddings. The cake that we ordered from the vendor elegance on display was just as delicious as when we tried it at the cake tasting. DJ Ross had everyone dancing and having a great time. I highly recommend getting married at this location. It was wonderful to see the design team and florals become a reality. I got so many compliments on the food so thank you catering and to the bartenders for providing great service. The venue has a design team that will really create your dream wedding. I cannot thank you enough for the little details and artistry that made our wedding unique to us. read more

I cannot say enough good things about Villa de Amore!! I got married here 1 week ago and everything about the day was... practically perfect?? I know that sounds pretty unbelievable but it's a common thing for brides to have so much going on on their wedding day that it just flies by, they don't get to eat dinner, they don't have time to talk to everyone (at least in all the disaster stories I've heard!) but that wasn't the case for me!! I have VDA to thank for that. From the beginning with the planning process, you can tell that they are 100% committed to making your wedding a success and making it your own, as well. You get to be as involved as you want to be or even if you did the bare minimum, it would still be beautiful! They have a lot of things that you simply just have to say what your preferences are, and they just take it from there. You don't have to be worrying about all the little details like buying a flower girl basket or a stand for the flowers. They have all those things! And they let you use everything without any up charge. It was the most affordable option, and you weren't losing out on anything either. David was quick to respond to emails and I didn't feel like I was ever in the dark with anything. On the day of the wedding, Brittany was our coordinator. She was AMAZING! She would check to make sure we needed anything, even from something as small as getting us a to go box with some extra cake and tacos, or me switching the schedule on the day of because I wanted to get pics with everyone. All the worries I had about the execution of the day were totally eliminated when I saw how on top of it she was. Honestly, I'm still in awe of how wonderfully my wedding day went. And I love their transparent pricing, how coordinated all the vendors were, and how much they took off my plate in the planning process, yet it still 100% felt like our day with our own special touches. I LOVED it. Thank you so much VDA!! read more

We just had our wedding here and it was everything I wished for and more. The beautiful white flowers everywhere were stunning. The decor team did a fabulous job at creating my vision. Our coordinator Tori was awesome, she really kept my head on the right track and was there for whatever we needed. I would definitely recommend this venue and this team! read more

We truly cannot thank you VDA enough for creating such a magical wedding day for us. My husband and I both agree it was, no doubt, the best day of our lives. VDA is absolute perfection from the breathtaking bridal suite, to the elegant cocktail hour with a pianist and endless photo opportunities, to the sleek cigar bar (which was a huge hit!!!), to the stunning ballroom, to the incredible, super attentive and knowledgeable team. Every single VDA member was amazing. David and Eileen were accommodating every step of the way and answered all questions quickly. Mandi's designs were stunning, and we could tell she truly took note of our requests. Karen, our day of coordinator was sooo sweet and meticulous. All of their recommended vendors were fabulous, and we received so many compliments on the food. Would highly recommend this venue to all!!! It offers the convenience of an all inclusive package yet has the flexibility to create the wedding of your dreams. read more

My husband and I had our wedding at VDA in April 2022, and we were extremely happy about how it went. The venue is stunningly beautiful! The pictures speak for themselves. We had our wedding ceremony at the vineyard gate, cocktails on the patio, dinner in the courtyard, cake cutting in the rose garden, and dancing in the ballroom. It really felt like 4 or 5 different venues in one that guests progress through over the course ot the night. The all inclusive packagage makes planning very straight-forward and it includes a lot--a full 8 hrs of use of the property (much longer and more private than surrounding wineries), trailers worth of design and decor items that you can choose from (saving lots of money in rentals), floral, catering, linens, photography, DJ, etc. Laura, the coordinator, was amazing! She and her assistant handled everything smoothly, answered every question, and anticipated our needs throughout the night. The floral and design turned out just as I imagined. We requested some additional florals beyond what is typically included, and it was executed perfectly. My only recommendation--if you are requesting/paying for extras outside of the standard package, make sure to check in on those requests the week of the ceremony to make sure they happen. Overall, a beautiful venue, a smooth wedding day, and memories that we will cherish forever. It's been almost 4 months, and I'm still aglow and so happy about how things turned out. Thank you VDA! read more

I literally can't give enough praise to this venue!! My husband and I just got married here for New Years Eve, and I keep hearing how amazing of a time people had! I've also heard how smooth it went! As the bride, if there were any issues, I never noticed. This venue is EXTREMELY BEAUTIFUL! Photos really do not do it justice! Please go see for yourself. The staff is incredible with communication and execution of detail. Our day of coordinator Karen was the sweetest woman I could've asked for. She immediately felt like a friend and made the day so smooth and perfect! Can I also mention the food?! Everyone said it's the best wedding food they had ever had! Walking around it looked like every steak was cooked to perfection! The late night tacos were also a huge hit. Shout out to DJ Ross who didn't let the party stop! He was on board for keeping the Packer score up to date, projected the New York ball drop live, hit those cold sparks at the perfect time! I didn't get a chance to talk much to our bartender but only hear positive reviews. It really is an all inclusive dream experience! I could only hope I get invited to a wedding back at Villa De Amore to enjoy it as a guest next time. We were a very happy bride and groom through the whole thing! read more

My husband and I visited many different wineries and wedding venues in Temecula before deciding on Villa de Amore, and we are so glad we did. We found out about VDA because we had attended a wedding there the year prior! We loved the setting, the food, the street tacos. So we already knew that they could pull off a great event. Price Price was great for what you get. Other wineries had comparable costs, but did not include cake, DJ, officiant or photographer. VDA includes all those vendors PLUS the catering and bar staff. Food Food was absolutely delicious! As a vegetarian, I'm always disappointed by the sad token vegetarian entree at weddings - or by having to just eat sides and bread. They had several vegetarian options on the menu, but none that really spoke to me. So the chef worked with me to create a summer pasta just the way I wanted it! Bar There are 2 huge bar perks for VDA. The first is that they allow you to bring in your own alcohol. We were quoted $13k for beer and wine open bar at most other wineries. With VDA, we spent about $5k on Wilson Creek wine, and beer and liquor from Costco, and had plenty left over. Second, VDA has a liquor license. Most of the other wineries in the area will only allow beer and wine. Setting You just can't get better than VDA for setting. All the wineries are gorgeous, but because VDA is specifically designed as a wedding venue, they've set up SO many photo opps. We got married in the vineyard, had cocktail hour on the patio and had dinner in the courtyard, before moving inside to the dance floor. All of our attendees STILL have photos they took at the venue as their Facebook profile photos, 4 months later! From the vineyard to the vine-covered hoopla, to the twinkle lights and fountain in the courtyard, to the lit awning where the cake is cut, to the rustic truck on-site, there are endless photo opps for you, your wedding party and your guests. Staff Staff is the best! Eileen is delightful, and Laura is so nice and so easy to work with. Monique is a very talented designer and Amy the caterer is so talented. Ross the DJ was also attentive and charismatic. read more

Beauty venue, the views were amazing specially during sunset. The service here by the bartender, servers, the coordinator were all amazing.

As the mother of the bride, I am simply overwhelmed with how enchanted and magical the whole wedding/evening was. I never dreamed it would come out as well as it did. All the staff is so professional and accommodating. The whole event was like a dream. The minister made the ceremony so memorable and touching; the cocktail hour felt like we were in Beverly Hills; the dinner was divine and so delicious and so filling; the personable DJ made the evening fun filled; the cake cutting in the rose garden was enchanted; the bar tenders were 5 star; and all the workers including the wedding coordinator were stellar. We had a cigar bar and it was a huge hit and looked like it came from a Hollywood movie set. I highly, highly recommend this venue. They were so easy to work with and so professional. It was truly a dream come true for us! read more

I cannot say enough amazing things about this venue. They took away all the stresses of wedding planning! Their package includes: Venue, florals, decor, DJ, photographer, cake/desserts and everything else you can possibly think of. The only thing you need to bring is alcohol and they provide mixers! Also of note, you don't have to go with their provided photographers, ministers etc. We personally chose a different photographer (not to say theirs weren't amazing!) and didn't use their minister. In the case you don't use their services there is a discount provided off the package total. Laura the coordinator is an angel sent from heaven. She not only answered every single on of my scatter brained questions leading up to the big day but she also was amazing during the rehearsal and big day! Many of my friends commented on how patient and nice she was. I truly owe my amazing wedding experience to her. I was never stressed out and I seriously had the best day of my life (so did my husband haha) The cake and desserts were made by elegance on display and she truly brought my vision to life. She was also very patient (I changed my cake design like 3 times after our initial meeting). The desserts were delicious and everything was devoured within minutes. The food was done by their in house catering. We had 3 passed appetizers, a salad and main course. We had the beef short rib and chicken marsala as our main choices (they also provide a vegetarian/vegan option) and wow they were so delicious. It didn't taste like typical wedding catering and our guests thoroughly enjoyed their meals. Decor and flowers. Wow wow wow wow. Monique and Aimee brought my vision to life. We had our walk through and went through what we liked and didn't like and she put together the entire decor and it was stunning. Same with our flowers! Everything was so beautiful and I didn't have to pick out anything. They took care of everything from the ceremony decor to centerpieces to random signs and a cigar table. It was just so beautiful. DJ Ross made our first dance and song theme so special. We had a greatest showman theme and prior to the wedding we discussed what we wanted and he created a custom version of the song to fit the timing of our grand entrance. He was such a joy to work with and if I ever need a DJ again he will be at the top of my life. He's honestly just a cool guy who knows how to read a crowd and get them pumped up! Lastly the venue is stunning. From the piano bar room to the vineyard views, there's a photo op for everyone. The staff are so welcoming and everyone said the service was impeccable. The bartenders and servers were so nice. They have security as well and she was a riot! I truly loved everything about this place. Please do not hesitate to book this venue. They will take away all of your stress and make your wedding the best day of your life! read more
