    They really made our dream wedding become a reality. It was everything we could have planned for and more! The location was gorgeous for an evening wedding, the food was wonderful and the friendly staff helped us through all the details and really made our wedding dreams come true.

    Had a great time

    My husband and I LOVED working with Katelyn and Alicia.. they made the night one to for surely to Remember. I will be honest I was almost turned off by my first approach with Allen!. He was not interested in what I had to say cause of the money I was spending with them, he told me if I could up my budged by $3000 he could work with me. I didn’t let that turn me away, so when I had my other meetings I fell in love with the venues all the ladies!.. on our night Alicia made sure very thing was perfect from the decorations to the food ❤️

    Perfect and stress free wedding

    As soon as I visited the venue, I knew this was where I wanted my wedding! It's so beautiful... not too big not too small ... perfect! The pond, the water fountain and the gazebo was exactly what we wanted. Nicole was AMAZING to work with and she helped us along the entire way. She explained everything in detail, offered suggestions when needed, she was flexible and patient. Fast forward to the big day. The set up was exactly how I imagined it. All the vendors did a wonderful job. The guests complimented the food and set up. I loved our banquet captain (shout out to Melissa). Lisa was also great ... we shared a lot of laughs. Nick the DJ was great kept the party jumping. It was so nice to not have to think about every single detail, set up, clean up, etc. Everyone had a ball! The wedding was perfect and I highly recommend Wedgewood Brentwood!

    The place where magic happens!

    I could never thank them enough for making my dreams come true! From the first day of me sitting in that office, the GM made sure I was comfortable and ready! I know it’s a business for them but they made it do personal! NICOLE!!!!!! SHE IS JUS AMAZING!!!!!!! I CANT BELIEVE IT TO THIS DAY!!!! Day or night! Email or phone! She was there! I was NEVER frustrated or anxious! I told my husband, if we had to do it again I would spend even more money cause they made it worth it!

    I can’t think of a negative! Whatever yu want, they make it happen!!!

    Beautiful, stree-free day!

    Working with Lisa and Nicole was such a blessing. These girls are on top of their game. I would email them with a question and would have a response within 15 minutes. They planned my wedding in 4 months and I never felt stressed. Everyone I talked to would say I was the most calm bride-to-be they had seen. The day of my wedding I was able to enjoy and let loose as Lisa and Melissa took charge. Food was delicious and our bartender was great. If I could go back and change something, I wouldn't change a thing.

    Best day ever

    My husband and i had the absolute best experience. Any time I had a question or just to check on something the girls were so quick to email me back and always so nice! Which goes a very long way with all the stress you feel when you are planning your wedding. The day of neither of us even felt nervous about anything going wrong, because of how they make sure everything you want is done accordingly. They did the best job and I would recommend them to any one getting married.

    Lisa and Nicole are the best. They really know wedding and how to get the most of your day. You can tell they really love what they do and it shows. Everyone that works there is just a hug away from being a family member (not that they actually hug you unless you hug them first). Me being the bride and a bit of a control freak and keeping with tradition and not seeing the groom before I walk down the isle to him. They would not only update me on their progress but would help me sneak a peek at things before not only my soon to be husband showed up but my guests too. They made me comfortable and calm no stress at all. What ever I needed I either asked or they anticipated it and had it there for me. Everyone is still talking about our wedding, the venue the food everything was great. I will be back for my 10 year vow renewal. Oh and Mike's Bakery their cake vendor is the best. We are going to have them make us a cake every year for our anniversary.

    So far, all of my dealings with this venue have been impeccable. I started emailing them in February 2014, and while I wasn't ready to make any venue visits until last month, they never refused to talk to me or take me seriously. I have dealt with Lisa in person now twice, and Nicole over the phone once, and both of them in numerous emails. The location is beautiful and the inclusive packages are unbeatable. I am so excited to get elbow deep in planning with them over the next year and a half.

    Oh my gosh this place is amazing they do everything! We don't have to go find other vendors they provide them all and it's so simple you just tell them what package you want and it's done! Nicole is the best she is putting together our wedding and her personality is great she doesn't try to push you to upsale you, she gets you what you want and I love it. And it's beautiful of course I can't wait for me wedding in July!

    Nicole and Lisa are with you the entire step of the way from your first meeting to the big day. The event staff is so helpful and take all the worries out completely. I would totally recommend them to anyone. Our wedding was a package deal. We brought in s few vendors of our own but that's because we personally knew them. Otherwise we would of done all vendors through the designed package. They offer 4 differently priced packaged to fit your budget and guest count. It makes planning so much easier. I absuluty love this vendor.

    We got married November 1, 2014 and it couldn't have been a better experience! From the start Nicole and Lisa were always there with answers to all our questions quickly and thoroughly. The package deals can't be beat...they truly take much of the stress out of planning a wedding because they do it for you. I can't say enough about our Banquet Captain, Sherye...she was so attentive all day, from taking care of me and my bridesmaids to making sure my husband and I had full champagne glasses throughout the reception! Her staff is stellar. Our DJ, Doug was exceptional! He kept everyone on the dance floor and still wove in the requested tunes on our playlist.

    Nearly a month later, our guests are still saying it was the best wedding they've ever attended and are still raving about the food! Wedgewood-Brentwood was an exceptional experience overall!

    I had my dream wedding AND reception here....my husband and I couldn't be more pleased and couldn't have possibly picked a better place to have it. From our coordinator, to the venue location, the food, the staff...we were so pleased. Honestly treated like a King and Queen. We were waited on hand and foot, as well as our guests. Everything was tailored to exactly what we wanted. The food - a complete buffet spread to feed an army- was amazing. All of our guests raved about how wonderful the food was!!! Thank you all so much for doing such an amazing Job!! To Lisa, Nicole, Cherie....you were awesome and I couldn't thank you enough!!!

    We had a wonderful wedding. Everything was beautiful. The whole process was stress free which allowed me and my groom to relax and enjoy everything. All of the food was fantastic. Many of our friends and family said this was the best wedding food they had ever had. The salmon was soooooo delicious! Many of our friends are seasoned "foodies" and said the food was great! The DJ service provided was awesome. The dance floor was packed all night. The shuttle service to the hotel was a great accommodation that was used by most the guests. Definitely recommend Wedgwood at Brentwood for a wedding and reception venue :)

    Great staff over there. They helped us with all our questions and if they did not have the answer they got it very quickly for us. They were very polite and helpful. The location is amazing for the ceremony and the reception hall is wonderful.

    The best part was their packages cover everything from florist and cake to DJ and caterer so you do not have to deal with all the different vendors separately. This took so much out of our hands and left us a ton of extra time to deal with everything else that had to be dealt with like last minute additions, lost guests, lodging needs, and planning our honeymoon.

    We had our wedding reception here in late February. We booked in March of 2011 and I knew from the very beginning that I had made the right decision for our reception venue. I visited a number of venues in the Livermore area and finally decided to try out Brentwood since it was close to our church. Upon my first meeting with Lisa, I was immediately sold! After taking my husband (fiance) to visit the location, he agreed that their packages were definitely the best way to go and a great value for your money. It was SUCH a relief to have *so* many things included in the reception package. I could not have been happier with TLCakes, Paula's Family Florist, the DJ and the Photobooth company. Everyone was truly top notch. Being a bride, you tend to suddenly develop OCD tendencies and Lisa and Nicole were experts at assuring us (me) that everything was going to be fine and helped us make decisions on things such as invitation wording, linen choices and which appetizers to serve. It may seem like a minor thing, but a huge plus for me at this venue was the chivari chairs that are included. These were always an upgrade at other venues and would have cost us upwards of $700+ elsewhere, which we just did not have in our budget. It was great to have such nice decor already there on-site.

    Our wedding reception went perfectly and it was definitely all because of the staff at Wedgewood Brentwood. The catering manager kept our reception flowing smoothly and easily accommodated us extending our reception a half hour. The DJ kept everyone dancing all night and totally didn't mind my two page long song list. I have to *highly* recommend adding on the photobooth!! It was totally awesome and all of our guests took multiple photos. The CD we received afterward of all the photobooth pictures was truly one of the best things that came out of the whole evening; memories we will have for a lifetime. The food was also equally impressive. We were able to chow down on some appetizers in the bride's room with our wedding party during cocktail hour and they were all quickly devoured and more were immediately brought out for us! We had the salmon and filet for dinner and the filet was cooked perfectly and the salmon was also excellent! Throughout the whole planning process we mainly worked with Lisa, but both her and Nicole were always quick to respond to my emails and phone calls and were completely patient with us even when we had some bank issues that delayed our final payment. We are still awaiting our wedding photos and I can't wait to see them, the grounds of the golf course I am sure made for some fantastic shots. All things considered, I will most definitely be recommending this venue to anyone I know who might be getting married in the future!!

    Our wedding couldn't have been any better, or easier to put together. The staff is amazingly easy to work with and is very patient and understanding. The food was amazing and served in large portions (appetizers, too!) so people don't leave feeling hungry. We had several comments on how good our food was.

    We were married at the Brentwood location 2 weeks ago and it was PERFECT! We got the emerald package that included the DJ, hotel stay for 1 night, cake (we took this out and used a different baker so they credited us for the cake), chocolate covered strawberries to be served with the cake, personalized toasting flutes, and so much more. The DJ was Matt and he was great, he played most if not all of the songs we requested and kept the party going. The only thing that he kinda messed up on was the song the bridal party was announced to. The BP was supposed to be announced with Sweet Emotions playing in the background and then when my husband and I were announced he was supposed to change the song to Pour Some Sugar On Me, instead he played Pour Some Sugar on Me for the BP and my husband and I. Which was fine, it wasn't a big deal and if he did change the songs it may have not flowed as well. Our package also included a wedding planner, we got Nicole. We had Nicole for the entire process, and she was so amazing, very fast when it came to returning my calls and emails, super sweet, always smiling, she was a really important part of our wedding going so smoothly she was great! The Food, ohhhhh yes delish!!! We got the apple almond chicken and filet mignon duet plate. The chicken was so good! We got so many compliments on our food. We weren't expecting much since it was "wedding food" we were pleasantly surprised, it was great! I will definitely go back just to eat. Our package also included the officiant, we got Rev Ray, he was very nice. The only thing he didn’t do was tell our guests to be seated after I got to the alter… So our guests were standing the entire ceremony, good thing it wasn’t a long one. We also used their florist, Paula she is great at what she does! She helped me pick the flowers and it looked gorgeous, exactly what I wanted. The banquet captain, sadly I forgot her name but she was super nice! She took care of my husband and I for the entire evening. Always asking if we were ok, if we needed anything, not in an annoying way either. She was very nice it was great having her around. We had the wedding of our dreams, I highly recommend having your wedding here, everything was beautiful. With such great staff, and an amazing price, you really can’t go wrong here.

    We just recently had our ceremony and reception here (11/7/10).

    It seemed like everytime we came here, called or emailed them, we received a response from a different person; however, everyone got back to us right away and knew what was going on with our wedding.
    The prices are what sold us (even though as soon as I saw this place I knew this was the one!). They first asked what our wedding budget was, and even though it wasn't a huge budget, they tried to work around what we had. Yes, we ended up spending way more than expected, but everything was so worth it!
    Allison and Elise were AMAZING!!! Super nice girls with so much knowledge and patience.

    Our officiant was Anthony Patterson who was super nice, professional but also funny. We met with him and instantly felt so comfortable. Unfortunately he couldn't make it to the rehearsal because of "an emergency" but Elise did a great job anyway!
    It did make us a little nervous about the wedding day but Anthony showed up (early) the day of. Aside from him not making it to the rehearsal, we couldn't have asked for anyone better to marry us. He made our guests laugh and we loved the way he spoke...his voice is very deep but clear.

    DJ Shawn Storm was incredible, he was able to mix in Latin music and English music very well without making it awkward. When I met him the day of the wedding, he was super nice and basically told me "I will play whatever you want whenever you want. You just let me know!" He definetly got the party started and played good music.

    The whole staff the day of our wedding were so great! There was a really sweet woman (forgot her name) who served us drinks, carried our plates to our table and made sure that we were all well taken care of.

    Unfortunately it RAINED the day we got married so we weren't able to get married outside by the gazebo and have the amazing view, BUT they did wait until the last minute (it stopped raining) and asked me what I wanted to do, so I gotta give them credit for that!
    Allison went as far as driving to the outside ceremony site (20 min before the ceremony) to check it out and let me know if it was possible to have it outside.
    We ended up having the ceremony inside (the banquet) which worked out perfectly! It was nice and cozy, the set up was really nice and they refunded us $1,300 because of that! (sweeeet!- Honeymoon money!!)

    We are so grateful for everyone at Wedgewood! Our wedding was AMAZING, it was everything I have ever wanted and more!

    Kimberley, Roxanne, and Tiffany Rock! The venue for both the ceremony and reception were beautiful. We had our wedding towards the end of October and the weather could not have been more more perfect. Mid 70's with a very slight breeze. We had an evening ceremony and it was timed just right. The area is very nice and gives you that wine country side feel and look. By the time we started to take some of our photos, of just the wife and I, the sun was just setting and it painted some gorgeous orange/amber hughes over the small hillside. The staff were very efficient and had their timing down very well. They were extremely friendly and accomodating. We heard of horror stories with vendors and things not being done right, but Wedgewood and the team executed this flawlessly. My wife is a very detailed person and she told me that she would not change a thing, and trust me when I say this, that is saying a lot!
