Fairy tale wedding…as the MOB, that was what my daughter called Sebastiani's Winery wedding she recently had. Loreena and Gaston were a dream to work with. Our wedding planner was the one who suggested this winery as we are from the East Coast, and had no idea where to even begin to look for venues. It is built of stone and old wine barrels. Her reception had dancing in the tasting room, dining in the barrel room, cake in the room with a roaring fireplace, and photo booth in another room. The staff was courteous, professional, and the Foley Family wines were impeccable.

We chose Sebastiani for our small week-day wedding & they did a spectacular job! They worked with us and shared advise to ensure our wedding went as smoothly as possible. The wine was amazing! We used vendors from their recommended list and were thrilled! The space was amazing and we had so many compliments! & the staff was amazing in doing little extras to make sure the day went off without a hitch! I heart you Gaspar, Alex & Vicky!

If you are looking for a venue that gives you the opportunity to utilize all of their space, Sebastiani Vineyards and Winery is what you're looking for. You actually get to make use of all the space from the fountain area, deck setting, to the tasting room to the barrel room. This place is wonderful not to mention the people you work with. Alex was beyond a saint helping us plan for our wedding. She was responsive and always willing to help. Thank you Alex for making our wedding day run smoothly and keeping us so reassured that we made the best decision for our wedding location!

What a wonderful place to get married! We have nothing but great things to say about working with Sebastiani. The Barrel Room is gorgeous, the grounds are beautiful, and it's conveniently located to the city center (a quality not to be underrated if you want a wine-country wedding!). Gaspar and Alex were incredibly easy to work with, and their commitment to making our wedding special was deeply appreciated. You won't be disappointed.

Let me start off by saying this......getting married in Sonoma is NOT an easy task, especially as a local. My husband and I searched for months for the perfect fairy tale location for our September wedding and found most of the locations to be crazy expensive and packed with pages and pages of ridiculous rules. Finding Sebastiani was like a breath of fresh air.
Gaspar and Alex were an absolute pleasure to work with, and made the planning process stress-free for me. There wasn't a single concern working with them and I never once felt like we weren't in control of our special day. They were flexible, knowledgeable, and there were several times that I went to them for their opinion, and I am so pleased that we went with all their suggestions.
The day of, Michelle made sure the event went smoothly and even helped us keep our "rowdy" guests under control (I mean.....what's a wedding without a few of those?). The event space was GORGEOUS and I've been told several times that our wedding was the most beautiful that our guests had ever seen. We wanted a location that was beautiful on its own without having to spend a ton on flowers and rentals, and I can honestly say that although our florist did a stunning job, we really didn't need much! We had our ceremony on the lawn under the arbor, our wine hour around the fountain, dinner in the barrel room and dancing/cake in the tasting room. It was so great to be able to totally spread out with our guests and they loved spending time in each of the different areas. And the location is perfect as it's right next to Sonoma Square which made getting around and experiencing Sonoma very easy and fun for our out of town guests.
We went with a catering/coordinating/everything package with The Lodge, which is definitely the way to go as everything is packaged, rather than seeking it out a la carte. And they're a pleasure to work with as well.
Overall it was the best day of our lives (so far!)!

We had such an amazing wedding here at Sebastiani! Alex and Gaspar were great to work with! The opening up of the entire space was just perfect, and everyone loved the wine barrel room with the Italian lights...what a warm and elegant wedding we had! I'm forever happy!

I just had my wedding at Sebastiani and it was perfect! I knew I wanted to get married in wine county. It was the first site I saw and I knew this would be the place. I went to several others and there was no comparison for the site and the cost, as you received more for your money here than at the other sites I visited. I did not find too many wineries with an indoor reception site. I instantly fell in love with the barrel room and knew it would be perfect for my vision. I especially liked the large barrel with the staircase wrapping around it, which made for a great grand entrance. I got married there as well, in front of the fountain under the arches, with a view of the hills in the background. It was just lovely! As the site stood on it's own, I did not need to spend much money on decorations and had a low flower budget. During the year of planning, there was a change of coordinators which I was not informed of and the winery was sold, but it did not seen to impact much of anything. I also like their wines, and with the wine club, they have some very affordable wines. I couldn't have been happier with my selection of venues.

My wife and I wanted to get married in wine country, at a winery, on a budget. I know, I know...cue laughs, right? But we had it all planned out and were determined to make our dream a reality. We wanted to have our ceremony outside, our reception in a barrel room, and we wanted to be able to serve great tasting wines throughout the evening. Because of our budget it was pretty damn tough to find a spot, but in the end, Sebastiani made it happen! After joining the wine club for a minimal fee, we were given a discount on the site and a discount on all of the wines purchased for the event. It was awesome.

Budget details aside, Barbara Rose - the event coordinator at the winery - is absolutely wonderful! She was extremely helpful with every aspect of our planning, always responded to our questions within a day, and was super friendly to boot. Her support staff at the winery was great as well. After we booked our event, they always made sure to say hello and treat us like special guests anytime we came in to taste or meet with Barbara.

So, if you're looking for the perfect spot for your wine country wedding, I highly recommend Sebastiani. Not only is it a great site, with great staff and yummy wines, it's also right off the Sonoma Square. Which made rollin' out to the local pub after the reception and then getting everyone safely back to their hotels a piece of cake!

Piper at Sebastiani is a real gem. She is so nice, responsive, and organized. She worked out all the details with my planner and florist. Her staff was great. I was stunned to see what they did with the barrel room. They even got us a permit so our dogs could attend the wedding!

When I'm looking for the perfect Wine Country Wedding site with both indoor and outdoor options, and a romantic, Italian feel, I always look at Sebastiani Vineyards and Winery. The barrel room there is to die for! With the largest wine barrel in the world as it's focal point, a wrap-around staircase (it's that big!) and overhead bistro lighting, it's a Wedding Planner's dream to work with. During the wedding season the rose garden is a luscious backdrop of green with white roses and the fountain courtyard is the perfect place for after ceremony hors d'oeuvres. What's best, though, is that if there should be rain or cold weather, the entire winery is at the disposal of the client, so there is plenty of space in the Tasting Room for a ceremony and hors d'oeuvres, moving seamlessly into the Barrel Room for dinner and dancing. Love this place.

I just want to say THANK-YOU!!!! Barbara Rose at Sebastiani Vineyards and Winery was a pleasure to work with. As a wedding planner we work with many venues. The key to a successful event is working with other professionals that "get it", and she does! It is a pleasure working with Barbara because she understands the business and emotional side of weddings. We all must be flexible and hear the vision of our clients. I would recommend Sebastiani Winery for any event. Barbara Rose is the best!
