Excellent Venue

I had my wedding reception here and--wow!! What an incredible experience!!

When selecting our venue, we met with Alan (the owner) who was really friendly and straightforward with information. Once we had our initial quote and paid the deposit, we worked with Anna (the event manager), who was wonderful every step of the way. There are of course a ton of little details that go into this type of event, but they really made it all come together and the day-of was fantastic. The weekend of our event was a hurricane (in San Diego lol), but they were super proactive about alternatives and options, and we ended up staying dry and it all went well. The staff was super friendly and helpful, and the food was delicious. We got tons of compliments on the venue/live-edge tables/gorgeous plants, food, and drinks from our guests. Aside from all the choices that go into wedding planning which are inherently stressful, they made it really easy by being all-inclusive.

The Perfect Wedding Venue!

We knew we wanted a distillery wedding because we love to support local alcohol places and we couldn't have found a better fit! From the moment we walked in, the space had this perfect mix of nature with the plants and industry that instantly felt right. It looked like everything that was on my pinterest board lol

Mari, Alan and Anna were always there to answer our questions and on our wedding day their staff were amazing. They took care of everything from setting up, the food and of course the amazing drinks! Our friends and family loved the cocktails which kept everyone on the dance floor all night!

One unexpected moment that stands out was watching everyone get so excited over the shiny tanks—it brought such a fun, unique element to the day! Through it all, the FruitCraft team worked seamlessly in the background, making sure everything ran smoothly so we could just focus on soaking up the moment.

If you’re looking for a venue that’s affordable, full of character, and backed by a team that truly cares about your day, we highly recommend FruitCraft

My Most Magical Day at FruitCraft!

FruitCraft is such a hidden gem! We choose their venue because of the beautiful plants and gorgeous tables. They had everything planned with their all inclusive packages which was a gamechanger for us. We were so nervous planning a wedding since we’ve seen our friends stressed out planning theirs but FruitCraft handled everything from food, drinks, dj, to florals. They had options of which vendors we could choose from and they all came in under our budget!

The FruitCraft team went above and beyond to handle every detail, making the entire day feel effortless. Their attention to detail and warm, professional approach let us focus on what really mattered—enjoying every second with our loved ones. Thank you FruitCraft for making our dream day come true!

Urban Oasis with Picture Perfect Moments!

We just got our wedding photos back, and seeing all of the special moments at FruitCraft brought back all the feels. The FruitCraft team—Alan, Anna, and Mari and everyone else deserve the biggest shoutout.

Seeing our family and friends having the best time ever was everything we could’ve asked for. We got so many compliments on the drinks and food which made us feel great about choosing FruitCraft. The staff even boxed up our wedding food for us to take home since we were so busy with our family and friends. They truly went above and beyond to make everything perfect!

Extra Special Moments at FruitCraft!

Choosing the all-inclusive package at FruitCraft was hands down the best decision we made for our wedding! From start to finish, we got to relax and truly savor every moment without worrying about a single detail— Anna, Alan and the whole team had everything covered. The food was absolutely perfect. They gave us plenty of options and even let us customize pancit as an appetizer which is our favorite Filipino dish! The venue itself was stunning, with its warm and inviting atmosphere that perfectly matched the vibe we were going for. FruitCraft didn’t just plan our wedding—they gave us an experience that was unforgettable and felt like us. We couldn’t have asked for a better team to bring our vision to life!

Stunning Green Spaces

Anna, our coordinator, was incredibly friendly, accommodating, and genuinely cared about making our day special. The staff also went above and beyond to ensure every detail was perfect. What really got us to book was their stunning green spaces! The indoor and outdoor areas were beautifully designed with vibrant plants, adding such a fresh and elegant touch to our day. We really didn't have to do much because the space was already so beautiful as is. If you're searching for a venue with top-notch service, friendly staff, and gorgeous green spaces, FruitCraft is definitely the place to choose. We can't wait to visit for our anniversary!

Love this Vegan-friendly venue!

My partner and I wanted a wedding where we could be truly ourselves and FruitCraft helped us do just that! We wanted a very natural look - which was perfect with the plants and gorgeous farm tables- with quality drinks and great food. Anna and Alan helped us create an all vegan menu with their staff. They were so open and understanding that we wanted something vegan but still delicious for our guests. The vegan food options were fantastic, offering a delicious variety that pleased all our guests. The staff went above and beyond to make sure everything was just right. If you're looking for a venue with gorgeous natural space, delicious vegan food and outstanding drinks, FruitCraft is the perfect choice- thank you to all the staff who made our day soooo special!

Unique Venue and Best Cocktails!

We really wanted to find a venue that was unique and had really good cocktails. Our family & friends love going to distilleries and wineries so we wanted to wow them but still find something that was us. We loved the gorgeous plants and just the general feel of the space, it made us feel so welcomed! The bar at FruitCraft had a great range of wines and cocktails made from different fruits, which gave our guests lots to talk about and kept them on the dance floor all night. Our guests loved the tasty and refreshing drinks, which were a big hit all night. The venue's focus on quality and trying new things was clear in their drink choices. If you want a wedding with amazing and memorable drinks, FruitCraft is a great pick. I totally recommend it!
