Amazing, and Unique to every event

Villa Chanticleer was the perfect venue for my Winter, Indoor Wedding. I'd recommend this venue for all sorts of events as it's a large spot with so many different and unique areas to gather! My husband and I had a very clear vision for the day and how we wanted to feel, the flow of the event, and the design. Leilani was an absolute pleasure to work with. She was informative, quick to respond, always willing and able to do site visits, and had solutions for every question!

Beautiful Venue

I was so enamored with the site initially and our wedding day ended up having the perfect weather despite the small sprinkles that happened around the ceremony. Being nestled in the forest made a perfect background for photos and the indoor area made a great place for dinner and dancing. All the tables and chairs are set up before the day and made it easier to focus on decorating. The venue managers were professional and helped from the beginning to the end.

Perfect Venue

We had our dream wedding all thanks to Villa Chanticleer! It is a gorgeous venue and very reasonably priced. My husband and I cannot thank Leilani enough for all of her help in making our wedding day absolutely perfect, we are immensely grateful!

The Perfect Wedding Venue

Villa Chanticleer is a hidden gem. You could not ask for a more perfect wedding venue. Between the gazebo area for the ceremony, the lawn area for the cocktail hour, and the two beautiful rooms for dinner and dancing, it couldn't have been better. We received so many compliments from our guests on just how lovely the setting is. As other have had to do, our wedding had to be rescheduled due to COVID, but Leilani helped us chose another date and helped to ensure everything went according to plan. She was never too busy to answer our many questions. I highly recommend!

Amazing wedding experience in a gorgeous setting

Villa Chanticleer was a wonderful spot to host our wedding. Not only was the outdoor space perfect for our ceremony, the team was able to work with us to accommodate some changes to help our guests feel more comfortable with COVID protocols for the event. The space is beautiful and we went with one of their inclusive packages to include alcohol and we could not have been more satisfied. The bartenders (Jennifer, Cindy, and Melissa) were all delightful and great with all our guests. Thanks for all the hard work to make our wedding work, Leilani & team!

Amazing wedding venue & staff!

We had our small COVID wedding at Villa Chanticleer and it was perfect! We originally picked the venue because they allowed for much more time and flexibility than other venues and it was a gorgeous area. Leilani was an absolute pleasure to work with - she answered tons of questions with kindness and adjusted to our constantly changing plans with so much patience and flexibility. When COVID restrictions caused us to have to change our plans, Leilani and Villa Chanticleer were so accommodating and understanding, they were one small piece of relief in a ton of stress. We ended up having to change our plans multiple times, even leading up to and on the day of the wedding, and they handled all of it gracefully. Our guests loved the venue and thought it was beautiful. Truly a fantastic place to have your big day, we would highly recommend!!

The Perfect Spot!

This space was the most perfect spot to hold our small wedding. The property is beautiful, especially with the wisteria in full bloom and the lush green lawns, and the gazebo as a lovely spot to say our vows. And just as wonderful as the grounds themselves, the staff were phenomenal to work with and made us feel like we were in good hands from day one. It was more than we ever could have hoped for.

Beautiful venue & helpful staff

AMAZING PLACE!!! I definitely recommend Villa Chanticleer for ANY event. We used it for both our ceremony and reception. I loved the views and our guests also commented how beautiful and clean it was. Even though we were unable to use the garden due to the light rain, Leilani, the coordinator helped us with the last minute changes. Looking forward to hosting the next event here.

The Perfect Venue!

My husband and I got married at the Villa last Spring and couldn't be more happy with our choice to have it there! The outside garden ceremony area is naturally gorgeous, and you can't go wrong with their indoor reception hall. We had about 150 guests which all comfortably fit on one side of the building, including the dance floor. The bar area makes a great cocktail hour location for guests to have a snack and drink before the reception. We can't say enough about Leilani and Jennifer! It was so nice not to worry about a single thing on our special day, they took care of everything down to the small details. They also have a bridal room for girls to hang out and get ready in that is very roomy and cute, and a grooms room for the guys! The Villa also has amazing spots for photos! There are so many venues in Sonoma County, but this one is worth putting on your list of places to visit for a venue location!

Beautiful and wonderful

My husband and I had a winter wedding in January of 2018.

We found Villa Chanticleer just a few short months before the wedding date and were so blessed by an easy, and stress-free experience. The staff went above and beyond to help us sort through details and ensure the most memorable day possible. We were so blessed to have the outdoor wedding of our dreams and indoor reception. Everything was easily accessible for guests and everything was simply beautiful!!

If we could go back and do it again, we would pick this venue one thousand times over. Thank you, Villa Chanticleer and staff, for helping make our wedding day the most amazing, beautiful, and special day possible! We are forever thankful.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
