About

Domenico Winery is a romantic wedding venue located in San Carlos, California. You no longer have to travel all the way to Napa for an authentic winery wedding. Aging, French Oak wine barrels make the perfect backdrop for a night of fun and celebration. The venue is available to host bridal showers, engagement parties, receptions, and rehearsal dinners.

Facilities and Capacity
The Cask Room at Domenico Winery is an ideal spot to hold your wedding reception. A small private patio sits just off the cocktail area with three outdoor couches. With market lights strung throughout the winery, guests can enjoy a glass of premium hand-crafted wine as they eat and dance the night away. The 6,200 square foot space has a maximum seated capacity of up to 300 guests.

Ceremonies
The Cask Room at Domenico Winery is only able to accommodate ceremonies indoors within the same room as the reception. For a traditional theater-style ceremony set-up (additional cost of $1,500), the maximum guest count is 150 guests as space is needed for both ceremony/reception (the ceremony area can then be used for dancing or food stations). For a non-traditional ceremony (no additional cost) where guests watch from their dinner tables, this opens up the guest capacity to 270 comfortably.

Not only does Domenico Winery provide a great atmosphere for your guests, but they provide several event services to help enhance your planning experience. The rental items that are available range from centerpieces and furniture to drapery and lighting. The event services include:

Best wedding venue ever!

We had our wedding at Domenico Winery in San Carlos this past January, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the moment we started planning to the final moments of our wedding night, the entire team went above and beyond to make our day absolutely perfect.

Bruna, our wedding coordinator, was incredible to work with. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine care for our event made all the difference. She guided us through every step, ensuring that all logistics were seamless and that we felt fully supported throughout the process.

Karla, the sales manager, was also fantastic in helping us get everything set up from the very beginning. She was thorough, accommodating, and made sure we had everything we needed to bring our vision to life.

One of the most impressive aspects of Domenico Winery was how well they helped coordinate all of our outside wedding vendors. We had a lion dance team for entertainment, an outside DJ, outside catering, a boba cart, and our own florist and designer. Despite working with multiple external vendors, the Domenico team ensured that everything ran seamlessly. From set-up to execution, their coordination was flawless, allowing us to fully enjoy the day without any stress.

The venue itself is stunning—Domenico Winery offers a warm, intimate, yet elegant setting that was perfect for our celebration. The wine barrel room added such a unique and romantic ambiance, and our guests couldn’t stop raving about the atmosphere. The bar staff and service team were equally fantastic, providing exceptional hospitality that made everyone feel well taken care of.

From our preliminary planning meetings to the final timeline coordination, everything was executed perfectly. The flexibility and dedication of the Domenico team allowed us to fully immerse ourselves in our wedding day, knowing that every detail was in expert hands.

We highly recommend Domenico Winery to any couple looking for a beautiful venue with an outstanding team. This is truly one of the best hidden gems in the Bay Area—a five-star experience that delivers exceptional quality at an unbeatable value.

Thank you, Domenico Winery, for making our wedding day so special!

Stunning Venue & Exceptional Team

Domenico Winery was the perfect venue for our wedding reception. From start to finish, the entire experience was seamless, thoughtful, and genuinely stress-free - which is exactly what every couple hopes for.

The venue itself is absolutely gorgeous and truly a hidden gem. It has a timeless, romantic winery feel while still feeling polished and elevated. The space flowed beautifully for a reception, and our guests could not stop commenting on how stunning everything looked.

A huge shoutout to Bruna, our onsite coordinator, who was truly amazing. She was calm, organized, and incredibly attentive, making sure every detail was handled so we could fully relax and enjoy the night. Having her there made the entire evening feel effortless. The Domenico team clearly knows what they’re doing.

If you’re looking for a beautiful reception venue with an exceptional team that makes the process easy and the celebration unforgettable, Domenico Winery is an incredible choice.

Lovely venue

Our wedding was on September 2025 and we are glad to have it here. The food was delicious! We love the amount of space and lighting of the area. We had over 200 guests and they were all able to fit comfortably. Beautiful atmosphere and aesthetically stunning. Thank you Domenico’s Winery San Carlos!

Absolutely Gorgeous Venue

ABSOLUTELY book this venue for your wedding!!! Do NOT hesitate!!! I’ve been here twice before for a holiday and an adoption party, and knew back then that I wanted to have our wedding here….and it was before they remodeled it! Ashley, Marina and Bruna made it the best day ever! The whole process of planning the wedding to the actual day was so easy and effortless. They were very accommodating to all of our needs and decisions. When our wedding day came….it was absolutely everything that we (or I should say I lol) envisioned. We 💯% recommend this venue to celebrate your big day!!! You won’t be disappointed!

June 22nd Wedding at Domenico coordinated by Bruna Medeiros

From the very moment we stepped on location of the venue, Bruna went above and beyond to make sure she was using all of her resources to cater to not only the bride and groom, but also to our parents who were heavily involved in the planning process. We all had a voice that was heard and felt very welcome requesting multiple additions and exclusions to the wedding packages. Bruna helped us tailor the perfect fit to our event all while working within our budget. Domenico has a lot of trusted vendors to refer for outside food, photography, entertainment, and other services. On the day of the wedding everything went exactly the way we had planned in fact, it went better. We had a stress free transition through all parts of the event and had complete trust that she would step in to solve any issue that arose. If we could do it all over again with Bruna as our coordinator we would. I highly recommend Domenico Wine and Osteria as a venue for any potential couple seeking an intimate and aesthetically pleasing place for their special celebration.

Best Day of my Life

I know it’s a cliche, but I’m just happy it was true for us! Domenico gives the vibe of being outside with the high ceilings and rustic atmosphere and yet gives you the warmth and shelter of being inside. A solid dance floor was a top priority for me, and it did not disappoint. The food was fantastic with plenty of options we got to sample. They were very accommodating of dietary restrictions (huge for me). Bruna was simply a dream. They were so responsive, helpful, and caring. All the details came together such that we could really enjoy the day and savor the memories. I should have written this review on my laptop so I could write more. But in short, as my now husband just said, “I’d go there if I got married again.” haha Very grateful for an amazing celebration!

Great experience planning

Domenico winery made our wedding for us. The first question our coordinator asked us was what we wanted from our wedding and we said as stress free as possible. They did just that. Everything came together so easily once we did the tasting night and knew exactly what food, drinks, color scheme down to type of chairs. We were allowed to keep things simple and add more a la carte food items as we saw fit. The Syrah room upstairs was well used for me to get ready and also do the tea ceremony. Also gave my husband and I a moment to ourselves in between the tightly packed evening. Our coordinator Bruna was amazing and kept us on a smooth schedule. Thank you for everything Domenico Winery! This was by far our best decision to pick this venue.

Domenico Review

We had our wedding at Domenico Winery on 10/26/24. From start to finish, our experience at Domenico Winery was always top notch quality. We worked with Karla throughout the process and couldn’t have been more happy to work with her. Karla’s professionalism and hospitality really shined throughout our wedding planning process. Karla was always quick to reply to our wedding planner and was always willing to help us find ways to save money. She was constantly willing to meet us for meetings and always made sure we made our deadlines. On our wedding day, she went above and beyond to make sure all our needs were met, and even help us set up some tables for last minute guests. The decorations, food, and lights were exactly how we pictured it. The Domenico Winery team executed everything on our contract extremely well. All of our guests kept on raving about the food and drinks. The ambiance of the whole venue was very cozy and comforting despite having 160 guests present for our wedding. Please do not hesitate to use Domenico Winery as your venue, if you’re looking for a place that has good food, good atmosphere, and a great staff! And please use Karla to help you with your wedding planning process!

Amazing Venue and Amazing Staff

Everything about my experience with Domenico was great. Karla and Bruna made planning our wedding and reception as seamless as possible. They were flexible, extremely helpful, and proactive. From our first tour to the clean up at the end of the party was taken care of by the team. I highly recommend having a wedding at Domenico.

Beautiful space, caring professionals!

My husband and I had our wedding reception at Domenico Winery in October 2024. Working with Bruna was such an easy, fun and collaborative experience!
She genuinely cares about the people she works with and we cannot thank her enough for all the love and care she showed us during the entire process to the day of. Everything I wanted came to life! The entire team at Domenico Winery made our wedding day so special and beautiful! Everyone is so professional and really knows what they are doing. They have a great list of preferred vendors that made the process super easy when choosing a photographer etc. We had gorgeous uplighting and cold sparks that really lit up the room. The level of wow was up there! Our party was so fun! The space felt dreamy, elegant, and timeless with the checkered dance floor we chose, the draping, gorgeous flowers and candles! Everyone loved the food - shout out to Chef Gary! They said it was the best wedding food they'd ever had. The drinks were amazing, including the espresso martini bar (wow factor)! We had a band, photo booth, entertainment, and DJ's - our timeline was full, and it all happened in an organic way. I wouldn't change a thing except if I could slow that special day down to savor every second. Our wedding is now one of my family and I's favorite memories. Our guests also really enjoyed the late night pizzas, cookie bar, and donut bar that Domenico offered, YUM! The wine is amazing, we danced the night away, and had an amazing time. Thank you again especially to Bruna, Marina, Gloria Chirichillo & family, Chef Gary, Karla, Aaron, Pia and everyone who helped make our night so incredible. I would do it again in a heartbeat!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Domenico Winery is a jewel of a venue tucked into the very busy San Carlos area. So much versatility in the space! The staff is very accommodating and easy to work with!

Cakes by Maggie Cakes by Maggie Wedding Cakes

Domenico Winery is one of my favorite venues, hands down! They do an amazing job of creating that fairytale space that you've always dreamed about as a kid growing up. As a vendor, I have had the pleasure of creating several wedding cakes to be displayed there, and it was always a pleasure to come up with a design that matched their cozy, sparkling space. Their service is always top-notch, and they are extremely organized - if I had to do it all over again, I would not hesitate to use them for my own wedding!
