    A day to remember!

    My best friend got married at Ernest Hemingway Vineyards and it was such a lovely experience. The team at Hemingway made the whole wedding party feel at ease and everything was so beautiful and organized. The ceremony was held in the stunning olive tree pergola area, there was a delicious dinner held in the Barrel Room, and we had an iconic evening of dancing outside under the stars. It was a night to remember and the wine was SO GOOD. I can’t wait to return to Paso to visit this winery again!

    Beautiful Setting and Delightful Staff

    Modern ascetic with all the charm of a family owned vineyard!

    I attended a gorgeous wedding at Hemmingway, and I can't recommend it enough for the modern pinterest bride. The grounds made for AMAZING wedding photos! There is a really pretty olive grove that made for some of the most beautiful wedding photos. Hemmingway really is one of Paso Robles hidden gems!!

    Stunning & Magical

    The Hemingway venue is absolutely stunning. The winery itself its beautiful, but what makes this venue so unique and better than the rest is that you are treated like a member of the family 100% of the time. They don't treat you like just another customer. The staff are warm and welcoming and go above and beyond to make your experience truly memorable. This venue has multiple options for ceremony and reception locations all over the property. We got married at sunset at their pergola with swings (which also happens to be where I proposed to my wife). Our reception was in their barrel room filled with farmhouse tables, silks, twinkle lights, and a chandelier. We danced under the stars and twinkle lights right outside the barrel room where cocktail tables and a delicious food spread was provided by the on site chef. Our wedding was truly magical and we cannot thank the Hemingway venue enough. Thank you for making us part of the family.

    Great Functional Venue

    I DJ'd a wedding here on November 12th, 2021.
    The venue has plenty of electrical outlets, all placed out of sight so every photo taken at the event never shows any clutter. Couples never have to worry about power issues and couples don't have to worry if any rain rolls in because they have a beautiful indoor option for the reception/ceremony.
    Very friendly staff, super clean venue, and a great location.

    5 stars for Ernest Hemingway Vineyards

    I got married at EHV in November 2021 and it far exceeded all of our expectations! From the planning process, to picking out the food and wine, to the rehearsal dinner, to the final big day - we were treated like royalty! The family at Hemingway goes above and beyond to make your wedding experience exceptional. It was truly worry free and so much fun. I’m so happy we chose this venue and would recommend to any bride who is looking for a gorgeous country feel with a chic ambiance. 5 stars!

    Unmatched hospitality!

    Let me begin this review by saying: I am a HUGE Ernest Hemingway fan. I even have a tattoo of a quote from For Whom the Bell Tolls. I was elated to even find a Hemingway themed winery during my wedding search, but even more thrilled with how much Jennifer and Darrin have honored the man's legacy! We booked this venue for our rehearsal dinner, and the guests have not stopped talking about it over a month later. Jennifer, Darrin, and Flannery went SO above and beyond what we ever could have imagined for the evening. There were so many special touches that they curated for us, and made us feel like family every time we walked in the door. The wine, the atmosphere, the beautiful scenery, the hospitality, and my god, THE FOOD! Chef John prepared a beautiful meal for us that left everyone so impressed. We felt so proud hosting our guests at EH, and it's such a special memory for me to hold forever as such a big fan of Hemingway's work. And seriously, the wine is top notch. This is a winery after all, so it's important to mention! Having tasted so many of the wines in the Paso area, I can say with an unbiased opinion that their wines are among the best.

    Truly amazing, memorable, lovely

    From the moment that I arrived on the property I felt calm & relaxed. The ambiance was beautiful & peaceful. The wine tasting room was a fresh modern feel and the wines were delicious. The staff was extra nice and gave me a fabulous tour of the many ceremony & reception sites. I felt that this was an amazing place because the staff & owners were so flexible with the ability to host my wedding indoor or outside. They have these beautiful white gazebos tucked inside of an olive tree orchard and I choose that site for my ceremony. I also choose their gorgeous wine barrel room to host my reception. The staff had set up a projector screen outside and we watched photographs of of life leading up to our lovely wedding. I could go on and on… about how absolutely amazing and special that the Hemingway Team made me feel. My guests kept saying all night long how they were having such an amazing time! I knew that I choose the right venue and I hope that you do to. Best Wishes

    I went to a baby shower here and was in awe. The venue is absolutely gorgeous. The decor is so classy & modern. The people that work there are so friendly & helpful. I was extremely impressed. Everything was first class. I will definitely have my future event here. I highly recommend this place to anyone who wants to have beautiful event with 5 star service.

    Making it Happen

    The owners and the wedding planner were a saving grace for anyone planning a wedding during the pandemic, they want to help make your wedding happen! Due to Covid like many other brides, I had to cancel my original plans due to travel restrictions and also having to abide by military restrictions, and the Ernest Hemingway Vineyard said we will help! They go above and beyond helping me find vendors they trust and finding them last minute to help make my wedding happen. Jen the wedding planner is always a text away if I have a question or even to remind me of vendors or details I may have forgotten. The team is so helpful and friendly and just want to help make your wedding wishes come true!

    Great to work with!

    I own The Floral Parlor in Paso Robles and I have done four events at this property and all of the Ernest Hemingway team have been so helpful and accommodating.

    Match made in wine heaven

    Cutest venue ever. This staff is beyond accommodating and lovely. Jennifer is gods gift to brides everywhere. The owners, are absolute dolls being super patient with my utter neediness. And the lead bartenders Spencer and Javier deserve ALL THE TIPS. You will NOT be able to pass up this venue.

    What a dream!

    Words cannot express how grateful I am to be working with the staff at Ernest Hemingway Winery. Our wedding is set for October, 2020 and being a "covid bride" everything is unknown and flat out scary trying to plan a wedding during this trying time. Our previously planned venue only has indoor space and is unable to host our wedding, I frantically called other venues trying to still make this wedding happen. From the moment of my first phone call to the venue I knew this venue was the right place to host our [now] intimate family only wedding. Jennifer Render (the events coordinator) has been a TEAM player from day one. Jen has helped me plan table settings, connected me with a florist and caterer, and has just been a GEM from day one. My fiancé is a sommelier & wanted to taste the wine before we purchased cases for the wedding so we made our way to tour the venue. Javi & Spencer in the tasting room were absolute dolls. As far as Ernest Hemingway Winery’s wine- we suggest the Russian River Pinot & the 2015 Cab. The venue setting is absolutely stunning and will easily accommodate large weddings or the small wedding we are planning. Everything you need from oak tree for ceremony site to a deck dance floor. I have already recommended this venue to other friends in search of the PERFECT party location. Might I suggest to JUMP on this location before someone else books your dream date.

    Ernest Hemingway winery great wedding venue.


    I had the pleasure to be part of the grand opening of Ernest Hemingway winery in Paso Robles, California on November 23, 2019. I must admit, it was everything and more than I expected. The winery is welcoming, spacious, warm and friendly and the wines are amazing. My favorite is the chardonnay, but I must admit that their rose' made me a believer. My friends could not decide which red they liked the most, because they were all so good. Their wines had great flavor, full body, easy to drink and smooth. The grand opening was so fun. There was great music, it was beautifully decorated with lots of fresh flowers and the wine and food paring could not have been more perfectly orchestrated. Thank you all for opening a great winery in Paso Robles. I wish you all great success. Can't wait to bring all my friends and family to visit you!
    This winery has great grounds for weddings ,
    birthday party's , anniversary or any occasion to get together with family and friends. Check it out, you'll be amazed.
    Cheers to you Ernest Hemingway Winery.

    Over and Above My Expectations!

    I hosted a holiday event here for about 250 people which consisted of family & friends. The on-site event planner took care of everything: arranged catering, floral centerpieces, valet service, extra staff, she was there every step of the way as I needed her. I was at ease knowing that my special holiday event was going to be perfect and that I would be able to relax and enjoy my guests with no stress. Thanks to everyone there at Ernest Hemingway Winery! I will definitely be back; the wines are delicious!

    Great Place to have a wedding!!!

    I love this winery!!! I had my wedding here and it was so beautiful with lots of big oak trees and a nice environment . I love having the animals added to the venue. The wine was very good and so was the food. The flower arrangements were so pretty and above and beyond my expectations. I also loved the service that you get here and so did my guests. I would recommend this place to anyone who would love to have a beautiful wedding .

    Great place for a celebration....

    I attended a wedding at the Ernest Hemingway Winery. The facility is AMAZING, & the property has a clean, beautiful setting, with wonderful staff that make you feel right at home. I would highly recommend this as a place for couples to consider as a Wedding Venue, or just a place to go enjoy the some of the first wine around...
