As a local professional wedding photographer and the owner of JLeigh Photography, I have had the pleasure of capturing countless weddings at Allegretto Vineyard Resort and I can confidently say that it is one of the most stunning and picturesque wedding venues in all of California. From the moment you arrive at the resort, you are transported to a Tuscan paradise with its beautiful gardens, vineyards, and architecture.

The resort offers a variety of spaces for both indoor and outdoor ceremonies and receptions, each with its own unique charm. The outdoor spaces are my personal favorite as they provide a breathtaking backdrop for wedding photos. The gardens are meticulously maintained with an abundance of flowers, fountains, and charming walkways, making it a dream location for any photographer.

One of the standout features of Allegretto Vineyard Resort is the Tuscan-inspired architecture, which adds a touch of elegance and sophistication to every wedding. The grand entrance with its beautiful arches and columns, and the stunning courtyard with its stone walls and rustic charm, make for stunning photo opportunities.

The staff at Allegretto Vineyard Resort are also a pleasure to work with. They are friendly, accommodating, and always willing to go above and beyond to ensure that the wedding day runs smoothly. Their attention to detail and dedication to making each wedding unique and special is truly admirable.
Another aspect that sets Allegretto Vineyard Resort apart from other wedding venues is the food. The culinary team at the resort uses fresh, local ingredients to create delicious and beautifully presented dishes that are sure to impress both the couple and their guests. As a photographer, it is always a delight to capture the reactions of guests as they enjoy their meals.

In addition to the stunning venue and amazing staff, Allegretto Vineyard Resort also offers top-notch accommodations for the couple and their guests. The rooms and suites are spacious, luxurious, and beautifully decorated, providing the perfect place for the couple to relax and unwind after their big day.
Overall, I highly recommend Allegretto Vineyard Resort as a wedding venue for any couple looking for a beautiful, romantic, and truly unforgettable wedding experience. The Tuscan feel, stunning gardens, and exceptional service make it a dream location for any wedding photographer. I am always excited when a couple chooses this venue for their special day, as I know it will lead to breathtaking photos and a truly magical wedding experience.

I reached out to Allegretto only 6 weeks before my planned date to have a wedding ceremony + dinner for a small group of 20 people. I worked with Annika Moe at Allegretto - whom I highly recommend! - and she made every detail of our big day SO easy. With just a few emails and phone calls, Annika helped me plan a ceremony, cocktail hour with hors' devours, formal dinner, and wedding cake for our group. She even referred me to our officiant. Our experience onsite was even better than expected - the staff was so attentive to our needs and checked in with us just the right amount (not too much, not too little). I highly recommend this venue to anyone that is looking for a BEAUTIFUL place to get married, with excellent service.

I highly recommend having a wedding at Allegretto. I had my ceremony in the Abbey and reception at my grandparents ranch following. I will say almost all my vendors dropped the ball, my three-year old was throwing a fit and it seemed like everything I planned was an epic fail, except for Allegretto. Annika and Nicole were a sense of calm in the storm of the day. I can remember walking out to the Abbey and hearing the incorrect song playing, and having a total fit about it but Annika and Nicole were that sense of peace right before I walked down the aisle. They fixed my veil and opened the doors for me to walk down the aisle (that was a big deal for me because I had been trying to figure out for weeks who would open the doors, that just shows to ask them for help and they will do anything to make the day perfect!).

I want to back track a little to the planning process. My husband and I paid for the wedding ourselves and we were on a tight budget and never thought we could afford such a luxurious event but when I came to Annika with my budget she helped me figure out a way to make it work! We moved it to a Friday and had the ceremony only. It was so affordable and came in almost 300 under budget!

During the planning process we met Doug, the owner. He personally congratulated me and told me how excited he was for me, I thought "Oh he must do that to everyone" but the day of the wedding he came in while I was taking pictures in the grand staircase, gave me a hug and remembered my name!!!!! I have never met an owner that actually cared about each guest the way he does! That flows into my next point of every single staff member being absolutely exceptional! From the bellman, to the housekeeping. They went above and beyond to make sure I did not have one stresser on my big day! The only way you can get such wonderful staff is being an engaged and wonderful owner like Doug! It is only cream of the crop for Allegretto!

Through out the planning process Annika was so detailed in making sure I did not forget one thing! She allowed me to rush in at any moment with any questions and was always there to help! Nicole and Annika had an answer for any question and planning my wedding with them was like planning it with two of my best friends. The always had my best interest in mind and are amazingly experienced!

Once we got back to the room from the disaster of a reception, we had a handwritten note from Annika and a bottle of champagne! I was in tears from what a disaster my reception was but once again my new bestie, Annika, saved the day!

There is not one thing I would change about Allegretto because everything they did was PERFECT!!!!!

So, I please urge you, if you are considering having a wedding or any event in Paso Robles connect with Annika today and I can guarantee you even if everything is a disaster Allegretto will make it the event of your dreams!!!
