Avensole Winery Reviews

I will forever remember Avensole. The whole process has been so easy because of the coordinators. All of our guests were in awe of the venue. I loved every part of the process and our venue so Much. I’m so grateful.

My husband and I were married at Avensole Winery on August 19, 2023. We definitely made the right choice in choosing Avensole for our wedding. We frequented Avensole often for dinners and wine tasting. Always admiring what a beautiful venue it is. The day of our tour we fell in love with the venue even more and booked our wedding date. The wedding team at Avensole is fantastic! They all helped make this planning process stress free. We worked with Brianna and Jessica before being assigned Yasmin as our coordinator. Yasmin was amazing to work with. She was personable, caring, very organized and helpful. She truly wanted our day to be special and everything we envisioned. The Avensole team worked so well with the preferred vendors we chose and together they created the most perfect day. The food and the catering staff was exceptional. From the presentation of the food, the taste and the serving staff. It was wonderful! We received numerous complements from our guests on how beautiful the venue was and how amazing the food was. Overall, it was the most perfect day to remember. I highly recommend Avensole Winery to any couple thinking of getting married in Temecula.

We fell in love with Avensole when we first toured it as a potential venue for my daughters wedding. We booked it on the spot and haven’t looked back since. Working with Brianna and Yasmin was so much fun and their entire staff was friendly and knowledgeable. The scenery as well as our cocktail/reception areas were stunning. The food from their caterers was amazing and displayed beautifully. Every one of our guests said it was the best food they’ve had at a wedding! The bride and groom spent their wedding night at the beautiful bridal suite on sight.

We had the wedding of our dreams at Avensole Winery on 5/28/23! We live in the L.A. area and started to look at venues in Southern California almost right after we got engaged in early 2022. We'd never been to Temecula and toured some amazing venues while vacationing in nearby San Diego, but we went back to L.A. knowing that we hadn't found the right venue yet. I did some research and stumbled upon photos of Avensole. I was immediately struck by the gorgeous rotunda and the sheer beauty of the property. I knew in my heart that this was our venue! We decided that we had to book a tour of the venue soon after and we made the trek back to Temecula for a weekend. Everyone who works at Avensole is a consummate professional, and we were greeted and cared for the kindest people. One of these individuals is Jessica (the now GM, I believe) – she is wonderful. She took us on a tour, and the grounds are even more beautiful in-person. We also had two guests who are in wheelchairs, and the property is very much wheelchair accessible. After the tour, we received a free wine tasting and were first introduced to Bryse, who is also wonderful and ultimately helped us pick out the best wines for our wedding. We were sold! We quickly placed a hold on the date that we had in mind. We were soon contacted by our coordinator, Yasmin, who was incredible. We had a few meetings with her before the wedding, and she helped us brainstorm ideas for the wedding, logistics, and décor based on our vision. She was so organized, responsive, and helpful during this whole process, so when our wedding weekend rolled around, it was eerily seamless! From the rehearsal to the ceremony to the beautiful reception space to the delicious food – everything went without a hitch! There was also a lovely woman in the bridal suite right before the ceremony (her name unfortunately escapes me) who was a calming force and so sweet, and the security guard (her name also unfortunately escapes me!) made us all feel safe and supported. Other random observations: there was a super bloom in the Spring and the flowers on site were lush, stunning, and happened to match our wedding colors. My husband also helped a rogue turtle find its way back to the pond on the property. A few of us think that these were signs for good fortune. Our wedding experience was absolutely lovely, and I am thankful for everyone at Avensole for helping us make these memories that will surely last forever.

We literally had the best day of our lives on our wedding day at Avensole!
My husband and I met in California but had recently moved to the east coast when we started planning our wedding. We decided early on in our planning journey that we wanted to get married in the Temecula wine country area. We were nervous to plan from so far away but started contacting many nearby venues. After calling nearly 20 different wineries in the area, we finally reached out to Avensole and spoke with Jessica. We knew after speaking with her for five minutes that this was going to be the venue we would be married at. Jessica was so informative in the short time of speaking, and she quickly sent us a proposal and quote. We quickly decided to choose this venue based on the breathtaking scenery, as well as the amazing customer service. We knew we could easily plan an out-of-state wedding here as well with the excellent customer service that Jessica and Avensole offered.
For anyone wondering, this is not a budget venue, where you can hope to get lower prices. Avensole was an amazing value and completely worth every single dollar in my opinion. Just don’t expect to come here and negotiate prices- you get what you pay for 😊.
Sierra, our wedding planner was an absolute dream to work with. She was always available by email, or by phone, and always answered our questions in a timely matter. We never felt like we were out of the loop even though we were out of the state the entire planning process. The wedding day was absolutely the best day of our lives, everything went perfectly! Our guests still comment on how gorgeous Avensole was, how the food was so delicious, and how it’s the best wedding that they have ever been to!
Sierra also saved the day with my dress bustle when no one else could figure out how to do it! Everyone was in panic mode as it was time for our grand entrance, and in came Sierra and figured it out in literally 2 minutes! We truly wish we could go back in time to the most magical day ever with the best atmosphere, food, and staff around. We can’t thank Avensole, and Sierra enough for everything! We plan to make it a tradition to come back and visit each anniversary! Thanks again!

We had the most magical wedding at Avensole Winery. Naturally the venue is so beautiful, it was truly the best day ever! Jessica and Brianna were on top of everything from day one. They made the process so smooth and enjoyable. All our questions were answered as needed, and because we live out of town, the staff at Avensole assured us we were in great hands! Our emails and phone calls were so seamless, the staff is highly knowledgeable and experienced. The food was SO delicious, our guests were impressed by the presentation of the food, especially the chicken and steak! I'm so happy we chose this venue, everything was perfect thanks to the amazing staff. This venue will forever hold a special place in our hearts. Thank you Avensole!

The whole Avensole team was amazing making sure everything was flawless, but special shout-out to Sierra who made planning our special day such a breeze. She was responsive and made sure to communicate important details to us, as well as going over every little detail to make sure our vision became reality. Our day was perfect from beginning to end and we would absolutely do it all over again!! Thank you to the Avensole team and thank you Sierra!!

This location is naturally beautiful! The view of the vineyard is breathtaking!
Yasmin was our coordinator and everything was perfect for our wedding. The food was delicious and the staff were very friendly. We had our perfect wedding and we wouldn't change a thing! Our guests loved the place and we received many compliments.
We highly recommend Avensole Winery!

Avensole winery was such a beautiful venue with the hillside view of the vineyard , the covered patio for cocktail hour and the indoor/outdoor vibe of the reception area. Me and my husband were instantly blown away at our tour and from the moment we signed our contract the team at Avensole was nothing short of amazing. We worked closely with Yasmin who is way more than just a day of coordinator. We met with her on multiple different occasions to discuss and decide on details for our wedding day. She was so helpful and made the planning process as painless as possible.
The food here is also amazing both in taste and presentation. Our guests raved about the passes hors d’oeuvres as well as our plates menu options.
Unlike most Temecula winery’s Avensole does not have a 10pm curfew and they do have a full open bar package which includes hard alcohol. Those two factors were very important to us and we were so happy to have the beautiful scenery of a vineyard without the strict rules.
Definitely add Avensole to your list of venues to tour, you won’t regret it !

We got married at Avensole this past weekend and they seriously made our dreams come true. The PERFECT venue for our 100-person wedding. The wedding coordinators are more like wedding planners as they are so involved and provide so many recommendations. They made everything so easy for us. Our wedding day turned out better than I expected! Everything was so organized. We loved the indoor/outdoor environment that made our covid-conscious guests very comfortable. We had so much fun and everyone said it was the best wedding they've been too. You seriously cannot go wrong with this venue. First off the venue is BEAUTIFUL and the staff here is amazing!

Our wedding day at Avensole could not have been any more perfect or stress-free! While planning, a big priority was our guest's experience since most would be traveling, so we wanted a venue that captured the beauty of Temecula Wine Country, served delicious food, and had an indoor/outdoor space that flowed easily from ceremony, to cocktail hour, & reception — Avensole was all this for us and more. Their team's experience, professionalism, and efficiency were unmatched throughout the entire planning process and their suggested vendor list was a great resource. Our venue coordinator, Sierra, was phenomenal! We appreciated how thoroughly she answered all of our questions and walked through details of the day, provided thoughtful insight on different timeline and design aspects, and overall made planning a breeze - I looked forward to our details meetings with her because I left each one feeling even more confident in our planning and excited for the wedding day!

Our guests are still telling us how much they enjoyed the food at cocktail hour, dinner, and the late night taco station! One of our favorite parts of the planning process was getting to go to the tasting event hosted by Avensole, not only was it a great opportunity to taste and consider food selections, but we also enjoyed meeting vendors at the event, seeing an event there in action, and having the chance to meet other couples hosting their wedding at Avensole. I also especially appreciated their gorgeous/spacious bridal cottage the morning which made getting ready relaxing and fun.

We couldn't have had a better experience and highly recommended Avensole!

We fell in love with Avensole the day we toured it! We loved that the property had both a bride and groom suite. The areas for the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception were all gorgeous. Not much needs to be added thanks to Avensole’s natural beauty! Catering, linens, and alcohol are also factored into your package which helps so much in planning - less vendors to have to shop for! But the biggest selling point was definitely the staff. Everyone is so kind, friendly, helpful, and responsive! Their wedding team is amazing! As a person who typically hates group projects, they made it a breeze! My venue coordinator, Sierra, was perfect and really helped bring our vision to life. I put my trust in her and the Avensole team and they delivered! I would highly recommend Avensole!

Avensole Winery was the absolute most perfect venue for my husband and I's wedding. Everything about this venue is breathtaking from the vineyard, to the atmosphere, to the indoor and outdoor spaces...just perfect! We had the pleasure of working with Yasmine and from start to finish she was so helpful and supportive. Without her I don't think our wedding planning and wedding day would've ran so smoothly. Any question or help we needed she was right there to lend a hand with a smile. I highly recommend having your special day here, you will not regret it!!

Avensole Winery is the best venue. The venue itself is gorgeous, and the staff are extremely helpful. They helped make sure that our day ran smoothly, and they were very responsive and helpful as we approached our wedding day. We couldn't have asked for a better place to have our wedding. The food was also delicious, which was really important to us. We highly recommend Avensole for your special day!

This venue is absolutely amazing. They have such an amazing team that made planning a wedding super easy. I don’t think my day would’ve been as perfect or as easy-going if I had my wedding at any other Location.
Everything about the day was perfect and even leading up to it it seemed really simple and easy especially because the great team that worked there made it so easy to plan a wedding with very little stress. Their food is insanely delicious and I’m still receiving texts to this day on how great the meal was. I highly recommend this venue and think that everyone should go see it regardless of if you’re getting married there because it is absolutely stunning. The outdoor ceremony with the gazebo made me feel like a real life princess and the inside ballroom was so breathtaking I didn’t have to worry about bringing additional decorations because the venue itself was beautiful.

Avensole is the PERFECT wedding venue! My spouse and I toured 10+ venues in SoCal and this one had everything we were looking for, ie.: gorgeous natural landscape, incredible food, professional staff, stunning ballroom (no carpet!), ample free parking, and spacious bridal and groom suites. Avensole's pricing was straightforward and fair, and we really enjoyed the delicious food/wine tasting. Coordinators Jessica and Yasmin were so helpful and responsive to our many questions throughout the planning process. Our wedding itself ran extremely smoothly and was a major success thanks to the incredible staff. This place is a gem and I 10/10 recommend it!

From the first time we did a tour of the venue to even after the wedding was over, Avensole has been an amazing venue! The wedding coordinators and staff were amazingly sweet, responsive, and helpful. The venue itself is gorgeous and all of our guests were in aw of its beauty (and the tasty food). We could not have asked for a better place to have our wedding. The memories will last forever and we will happily visit again even without a wedding to attend. We cannot recommend this place enough.

If you are looking for a stunning winery, but you don't want some big commercial venue that makes every wedding look the same, or a very small venue that doesn't really cater to brides but will do it anyways for the extra income, then Avensole is just right. It is the goldilocks of wedding vineyards (and trust me, we looked at a lot!)

My husband and I picked this venue for our destination wedding. Having picked a venue on the other side of the country we went off pictures online and multiple email threads with the staff. Our wedding coordinator was Sierra Money who was fantastic!
The pictures online of the venue are very accurate but the venue is even more beautiful in person. Speaking with a wedding coordinator via email was very effective and easy! Sierra answered all my emails in a timely manner. She had a very calm demeanor and was very knowledgeable.
Avensole winery is 5/5 stars. The staff are accommodating and professional. They large glass doors in the ballroom create a beautiful indoor-outdoor space. The food was delicious. Most of the wedding guest said it was the best wedding food they have ever eaten.

My husband and I had our wedding May 2022 and we couldn't ask for a more perfect wedding. Our venue coordinator, Jessica, executed every last detail perfectly. She was amazing to work with during the wedding planning process. She answered all emails promptly and helped me figure out the details I was struggling with (table settings, wedding timeline, etc.). I received so many compliments from our guests about how beautiful the venue was! The flowers and vineyards were in full bloom which created an unbeatable ambiance. We also received a TON of compliments about the food! We repeatedly heard "that was the best wedding dinner we've ever had!" I would 100% recommend having your wedding at Avensole! We couldn't be happier with how ours turned out!

Long story short: this venue is perfect & has the best team. You should stop looking & book ASAP.

Our wedding was hands down the best day of my & my husband's life & a HUGE reason is because Avensole is a SPECTACULAR venue & has the most incredible team managing all the details every step of the way (we started calling them "The A Team"). I can't even count how many people came up to me at or after the wedding to tell me that it was the best wedding they had ever been to. The Avensole team goes above & beyond to make the entire wedding planning process seamless, fun, & stress free! They also assign each couple an Avensole Coordinator (which is already included in the wedding package at no extra cost) who personally helps with all the wedding details from the time that you book all the way through the actual wedding day, which is such a huge help! We had Sierra as our coordinator and absolutely LOVED her - she was so organized, thorough, thoughtful, & genuinely excited to help us make our big day as amazing as possible. She also brought up a lot of things that my husband & I hadn't even thought about yet & kept us on track with making decisions & meeting deadlines. She also provided some amazing insights into what worked at other Avensole weddings she's coordinated & recommended some great vendors. I honestly didn't even hire a separate wedding coordinator because she was so incredible! I could go on & on about how much we loved her, but there's a limit on the word count & so many great things to say about Avensole. The actual grounds of Avensole are STUNNING & they truly built the space to optimize the entire experience of the big day. The flow of the event spaces is truly flawless. The ceremony site is absolutely gorgeous & just a stone's throw away from the bar for cocktail hour (which is a huge help because it's a seamless transition after the ceremony to the party)! The bar is also connected to the reception hall, which is absolutely beautiful as is - the reception hall has huge glass sliding doors to a big outdoor terrace overlooking the vineyard (the Terrace already has bistro lights & HEATERS), making for the perfect indoor/outdoor wedding reception. Also, as a bride, I appreciated that the cottage that I got ready in, which is so cute & perfect, was a very short walk from the ceremony site through a path that's hidden by the vines - it made it easy for me to get to the ceremony (in heels!) but also allowed for the perfect "grand entrance". One of the most important things for me & my husband was the food & Avensole absolutely knocked it out of the park. During the planning process, they hosted a tasting event (which was so fun!) & we had a chance to try the food from their catering partner, Coast Catering. WOW! We were stunned & so were all of our guests! Everyone was telling us it was the best food they had ever had at a wedding - & we have some friends & family with very discerning palates! The hour derves were incredible (my fave was the poke tacos!) & the dinner was absolutely delicious. We did a "duet" where we served both Chilean Sea Bass & Hanger Steak - both were so delicious & cooked perfectly. We also did a "late night taco" add on where Coast Catering set up a taco bar on the terrace (we did Skirt Steak & Carnitas) & it was AMAZING! Everyone loved it & it was the perfect late night snack after everyone got hungry from all the dancing.

Sierra was our coordinator, and she was a dream to work with. She is professional, energetic, sweet, and so passionate about what she does. She went above and beyond to make our day perfect! During out first meeting with Sierra, my husband and I were not really sure what we envisioned our day to look like. We had a few ideas that Sierra took, and with her creativity, brought to life in a vision board that we had in our inbox before we even got home from our meeting! The rest of the planning process was so organized and each meeting with Sierra was incredibly productive and fun.
Everyone on the wedding team at Avensole was a pleasure to work with. Planning a wedding for the first time, you have a lot of questions while having to make a ton of decisions. Every time that I reached out to anyone on their team, their responses were prompt and incredibly helpful. I can hands down say that having our wedding at Avensole was the best decision we made because of their team. We did not have to worry about anything!
On the day of wedding, it was so nice to have a beautiful bridal suite and groom’s suite to get ready in on site. It made everything so simple and stress-free. The food was incredible, and the wine is amazing. All of our guests raved about both! The service staff at our wedding were so friendly and professional! One of our servers even brought us out a plate of appetizers while we were doing photos to make sure we didn’t miss them!
After the wedding was over, we all said, “can we do this again?”. It turned out more beautiful and amazing than we could have imagined.
I would recommend Avensole Winery to any couple who is looking for an intimate and beautiful vineyard setting, an amazing team, and a fun and stress-free day that you and all of your guests will remember forever!

Our wedding at Avensole was absolutely beautiful! We had to postponed our wedding celebration from fall 2020 to fall 2021 due to the pandemic, but everything turned out well in the end. Our coordinator, Jessica, and her staff were amazing and so professional. Any couples having their weddings at Avensole will be in good hands. We like that everything can be done in one location. They have a great caterer that they used for weddings. Our guests complimented on the food and told us everything were all delicious. Avensole offers a menu tasting event for their couples, so they can sample the caterer’s menu and get inspirations from the reception decorations. It was so helpful! The grounds at Avensole is so beautiful that it doesn’t really need much decorations. If you’re looking for a winery wedding in Temecula, Avensole is highly recommend as the venue.

Amazing experience/coordinator

Right when we walked down the flower path I knew that this was our wedding venue. I loved the fact that this venue was not “commercialized”. Jessica, Bri, and Sierra were always there and had continuous communication throughout the process. One thing that made the process so much fun, that I know not alot of venues do, is a date night for the couples for your food tasting. We not only got to see what the reception area would look like with all the tables set up, but we also got to meet the couples that were getting married too!
The wedding day went so smooth and Jessica was always there to check on us and make sure we had everything we needed and/or wanted.
This was a night to remember and I wish I could relive my wedding day every weekend at this beautiful venue!
