We could not have made it through the many unexpected changes that 2020 brought to our wedding planning without the responsive, professional and calming staff at Delfosse Vineyards. They helped us change our wedding plans, not once, not twice, but three times. They bent over backwards to come up with ways to recreate our event, but still keep it as close as possible to our pre Covid plans. We finally moved everything to 2021 and we know, whatever comes our way, the team at Delfosse is going to be there for us. We wanted to say THANK YOU! We are so glad we chose this venue!

Keith, we appreciate your kind words SO MUCH. And we have so much respect and admiration for how you both worked through the many Covid issues with such grace and maturity. This is a year where all of us - couples and vendors alike, learned a lot about being patience, understanding and coping in ways we did not anticipate. Your ability to "roll with the punches" has been exemplary! We could not ask for better partners in planning and navigating! We are SUPER excited about your 2021 wedding!

Perfect Wedding
Having our wedding at Delfosse was the best decision we ever made. We knew we wanted to have our wedding at a winery, and visited them until our head spun. Once we saw Delfosse, and especially after we met the staff, we knew we didn't have to look any further. The property was beautiful, the food was incredible, and the staff went out of their way to make sure we were happy. You get the feeling that you're family there, not just a customer. The wines are, of course, to die for (we love love love the Malbec). Spending the night in the cabin after the reception was all we could have hoped for, sitting in front of a warm crackling fire with a picturesque view of the beauty right out the window and ending our perfect day. This will definitely be an anniversary visit!

Looking Forward to the Future!
Our wedding was originally scheduled for April of 2020. We moved it to August, then finally decide to move it to 2021. The staff at Delfosse has been extremely flexible, understanding and patient while we changed our plans over and over. We wanted to take a moment and say THANK YOU for their generous and gracious response to a very challenging year. We can't wait for our 2021 wedding at Delfosse and look forward to celebrating many anniversaries there in the future.

We have been so fortunate to have such wonderful couples like you and Paul to work with in this very unusual year.
