Our wedding at this venue was an absolute dream come true! The property has stunning Italian Tuscany vibes, complete with romantic cypress trees that made for the most beautiful backdrop. The ceremony area is incredibly romantic and felt so magical on our big day.
Our wedding was from 5-10 PM, and I loved that I could start getting ready there at 12 PM while my fiancé had his space starting at 3 PM—it made the whole day flow seamlessly. The food was amazing, and our guests are still raving about how delicious everything was!
Victoria, our wedding coordinator, was truly exceptional. She was so organized, professional, and caring—you can tell she genuinely loves what she does and goes above and beyond to make sure every couple has an unforgettable experience.
We had the most memorable day of our lives, and all of our guests couldn’t stop complimenting the venue and the amazing food. I highly recommend this venue to any couple looking for a breathtaking location and a stress-free, perfect wedding day!

The BEST Wedding Venue in Temecula
Falkner Winery was an absolute dream venue for our October 2025 wedding, and we truly could not have asked for a better experience!
We were initially drawn to Falkner because we wanted a winery setting that also offered a full-service experience—including catering, wine, and hard alcohol—and they delivered on all fronts. Having their day-of coordinator, Victoria, included in our package was a huge advantage. She was incredibly organized, responsive, and instrumental in making the entire process feel seamless from start to finish.
From the moment we booked, we were given a detailed planning checklist and access to a curated list of preferred vendors. As a couple who doesn’t naturally gravitate toward event planning, this structure made a world of difference and helped us stay on track without feeling overwhelmed.
The venue itself is breathtaking—reminiscent of Tuscany, with stunning vineyard views and an unforgettable sunset backdrop. The bridal suite was a beautiful, comfortable space to get ready with our family and friends, and the barrel room provided the perfect setting for the groom and incredible photo opportunities.
The food exceeded expectations. We attended a tasting prior to the wedding and were impressed, but it was even better on the day itself. Many of our guests told us it was some of the best wedding food they’ve had.
On the wedding day, everything ran flawlessly. Victoria ensured the timeline stayed on track and handled everything behind the scenes so we could fully enjoy the moment. The entire team operated with professionalism and ease—it truly felt like they had everything under control.
We also opted to extend the evening by renting out the restaurant for an additional hour, which was one of the best decisions we made. It gave our guests more time to celebrate with dancing, drinks, and late-night bites in a fun, relaxed setting.
Overall, Falkner Winery delivered exceptional value and an unforgettable experience. Our wedding day was everything we hoped for and more, and we are so grateful to the entire team for making it so special!

A Wedding Dream Came True!
From the beginning of the first call through our initial tour, questions along the way, the rehearsal itself and finally the "big day", Loretta, the owner and Danielle, the wedding coordinator, made our experience and our guests' experience incredible! Our daughter's and new son-in-law's wedding was a perfectly beautiful and joyous event! There were no concerns- just a fun, relaxing and enjoyable wedding. A dream come true! We HIGHLY RECOMMEND Falkner Winery for your wedding venue!

Beautiful venue with awesome staff
We had chosen Falkner winery for our March 2020 wedding. Loretta, Kristina and their staff were all very accommodating to all our requests (we had planned 2 ceremonies followed by a reception). Throughout the whole planning process, Loretta and Kristina were both very responsive and answered all my questions with great details.
Unfortunately, due to COVID-19, we had to postpone our March wedding and Loretta worked really well with us to help us choose a new date in August 2020. Then, the winery caught a fire because of which they couldn't do weddings for a while and Loretta immediately called to inform us about this and suggested some other venues so that we could continue with our wedding plans. She also promptly offered to refund us the full amount without us even having to ask. I was very sad that we couldn't have our wedding at Falkner winery but I was really amazed to see how well Loretta handled everything. We eventually ended up getting married at South Coast Winery in Temecula but I want to thank Loretta and her team for all the effort they put in planning our big day. My husband and I can't wait to go back to Falkner winery in a few years to renew our vows.

Best Decision Ever
Loretta and her staff we amazing from the early stages to the final moments of our day. I couldn’t have picked a better winery not only for the beautiful views, but, the amazing staff. The tasting went smooth and was delicious, the rehearsal went smooth. We really wanted a pinnacle ceremony but a garden reception, Loretta and her staff were able to make our dreams come true. Kristy, (Kristina) was our coordinator and I cannot tell you enough just how amazing she was. She was always responsive to emails, understood our vision and executed it perfectly. Falkner Winery thank you for making our dreams come true!

Beautiful Venue and White Glove Experience
My husband and I got married at Falkner on 10-19-19 and couldn't recommend it enough to others who are looking to tie the knot in Temecula. The venue is incredibly gorgeous, private, and flexible for different areas to do your ceremony and reception. Loretta, the owner, takes a very personal approach to the experience her couples have during the venue selection process, planning leading up and the actual day of. Krissy and her whole staff are very professional, responsive, and creative to ensure that your dreams for the big day come true. Additionally the food options were cooked by an actual chef and we still have guests raving about the food and wine.
Overall our experience was better then we could have ever asked for and our day was more special because of Falkner and the whole staff.

Loved the Venue
My wife and I planned our wedding from across the country. We moved to Michigan but wanted to get married back home in California surrounded by family and close friends. It was hard choosing a venue relying only on photos and reviews but my wife and I are so glad we chose Falkner Winery. The venue was beautiful and they were wonderful to work with. We had the pleasure of working with Loretta Falkner and their event manager, Khristina. A few days before our wedding, there was a wild fire in the neighboring city. We were stressed and worried because our plan was to do an outdoor ceremony and reception. We called Loretta and Christina to discuss the situation but they both told us to relax and offered moving everything indoors. We felt bad for the last minute changes but they assured us that it was totally fine, everything will be taken care of and for us not to worry. Well it turned out the winds were blowing the smoke away from the venue on our wedding day. We asked to go back to our original plans for an outdoor ceremony and reception. Without hesitation, they agreed and made it happen. I don't know many venues that will bend over backwards during wedding season for their customers but Falkner Winery went above and beyond. My wife is a very picky person(I hope she doesn't read this) but she couldn't stop raving about Khristina and the venue. I would highly recommend checking out this venue for your special day. Loretta, it has been a pleasure working with you for over a year. Thank you for taking the time to stop by and introduce yourself during rehearsal. Kristina, thank you for making our special day perfect and please thank your kids for sharing their mom with us- we kept you at work pretty late. Again, thank you all for making our special day truly amazing. I couldn't have asked for a better experience.

Amazing venue!
We had our wedding at Falkner this past June, and it was one of the best decisions we made. The venue is absolutely stunning. We particularly loved our ceremony site (the Pinnacle site), which starts with an incredible walk between cypress trees/under jasmine and leads to the ceremony site surrounded by white rose bushes with beautiful views of the hills and vines. Everything was in full bloom in June! I cannot count the number of guests that told us how beautiful of a setting it was. Loretta and Krissy were great to work with from the very start and much more accommodating than other venues we spoke to. They were so responsive and professional, and we really felt like they cared about us having a wonderful wedding day there. They were very accommodating to our wants/needs. They helped us get farm tables and cross-back chairs from a local vendor and were just generally helpful since they know the Temecula Valley and vendors there well. And they have hard alcohol, which 90% of wineries do not have a license for. Overall, it was a fantastic experience having our wedding at Falkner. We can't wait to go back and visit!

Hidden Gem- breathtaking scenery, unbeatable prices, hardworking and professional staff
Words and ratings cannot adequately express how PERFECT our wedding day 5/6/2019 was at Falkner Winery. We chose Falkner Winery because of how intimate it felt- nestled on a hill with breathtaking vineyard views. We had the privilege of having Krissy as our event manager. From the moment we requested for more information to the very end of our wedding, all of our questions were answered and all of our concerns were put to ease. We even had a Monday wedding. Krissy is usually off on Mondays, but she switched her days off that week to handle our wedding. Our wedding day was so much more than we prayed for and that’s all because of the venue, wonderful staff, and Krissy! If you are still considering Falkner, I would reach out to them and you’ll be comforted as soon as you speak with Loretta that you’ve found the right venue.

Falkner Winery Weddings Are a Dream!
When my now husband and I were looking for the perfect wedding venue we were told to check out Falkner Winery in Temecula. We knew we wanted an outdoor ceremony at a winery with an indoor reception and cocktail hour in a barrel room. After visiting Falkner Winery we fell in love with the venue and felt like not only were all our boxes checked for the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception but we were also blow away at the professionalism during our tour. We could tell right away that this wasn't their first rodeo but that they've been hosting and running successful weddings for years. We booked the venue that day and couldn't have loved the whole experience more. Our wedding day was a dream and we LOVED our day of coordinator Krissy. She made everything so easy and stress free. We felt like we could actually enjoy the day and put our full trust in her to run everything perfectly. She made sure we ate dinner and that things stayed on schedule. Our guests loved the venue, the food, and of course the wine! It was all incredible. I couldn't recommend Falkner Winery more to brides looking for a romantic and gorgeous vineyard wedding.

Best Venue in Temecula at the price
Other couple’s reviews did not disappoint when we booked and eventually held our wedding at Falkner Winery. We were lucky enough to have Krissy as our coordinator, as I’m pretty sure she could run a wedding in her sleep at this point. She knew exactly what to do, even when I was completely dazed and exhausted after all the pictures and emotions. Loretta was a huge help as well, as she touched base with me every step of the way regarding payments and updates. Both ladies are incredibly friendly and ready to help with anything.
The winery as a whole is the perfect wedding spot. After looking at a few places, we realized we couldn’t beat this venue. Falkner has an incredible view, great staff and everything included at a reasonable price. The open beer and wine bar was great for us, but they also received their liquor license recently, which is great! The most important thing to remember is that this place was meant for weddings (and wine making), so they have it down to an art. You really don’t need to worry about much come wedding time compared to other places that aren’t as wedding oriented. And you get an INCREDIBLE background for pictures.

Professional and Heartwarming Customer Service
I worked directly with the owner who gave us detailed and professional service that was heartfelt and genuine. I highly recommend this location for the secluded romantic feel and especially liked that we have an outdoor venue past 9pm (11pm) to enjoy our night under the stars with no noise restraints and away from the highway noise. The property has a stream of market lights that enhance the mood and the property is extremely clean and organized. Thank you Lorettta.

Naturally Beautiful Venue
Falkner Winery is an absolutely beautiful place to get married. The grounds have so much of their own natural beauty. I definitely have to give all the credit to Krissy the event manager because she was absolutely amazing! Everything went off with a few small mishaps that were never noticed by guest. Definitely recommend this venue.

Falkner went above and beyond our highest expectations!
Our experience was a 10. Loretta and her staff are so competent! Crissy is amazing and worth her weight in gold. She not only helps the whole day of the wedding but is available to answer any questions beforehand.Our daughter lives in Taiwan so this was a destination wedding . We had not one problem! Our food was 5 star. The wine was flowing all night. Our 100 guests that came from China,Sweden,TawainAlbania and all over the USA have said it was the nicest wedding they have been to. My one huge regret is that I forgot to buy her wine to bring home to Minnesota! They don’t sell it here. I am so sad about that☹️ DMT

Loretta and her team are honestly the best people to work with. They REALLY care about your day and take the time to check in, follow up and make sure you are not stressing! Also this venue provides almost every detail for your reception, or saved us so much! When we have a vow renewal it will be here again!!

Best day ever!
I am beyond grateful that we chose Falkner Winery for our reception venue! We looked at so many different places, but ultimately just fell in love with the outdoor "Yard" space at Falkner with its incredible views and intimate feel. We also loved that Falkner has their own catering staff and facilities on-site and of course that they provide the wine and beer as well. It just made things easier not to have to worry about booking a separate caterer too. We booked with Falkner exactly a year out from our wedding date (9/28), and our coordinator Krissy was SO helpful answering all of our questions leading up to the wedding, especially toward the end when I had new questions popping up every day. Krissy truly served as a day-of coordinator for us, and we did not need to hire our own. She helped me with the vision for the space and mapping out where everything would go. I dropped off all of our signs and extra decor the day before the wedding and she and my florist arranged everything beautifully the day of the wedding. We had our ceremony at a church nearby, so when we made our grand entrance at the reception and finally got to see the Yard space all set up, we were just blown away! There is something about the light at Falkner during sunset that is just magical. We timed it so that our first dance happened just as the sun was starting to set, and there was this gorgeous, golden glow all around the space. We got really lucky with the weather too - it was about 75-80 degrees all evening and just perfect to be outside. We got so many compliments from our guests on how beautiful the space was and how nice it was to be outdoors. The serving staff for the reception was awesome, and the food was really good! Krissy took such good care of us and had plates and glasses of wine waiting for us when we got back from taking sunset pictures in the vineyards. We were so hungry and it gave us a chance to just sit and enjoy our food before starting to mingle with everyone. The only part of the meal that wasn't as good as it was during the tasting was the prime rib. We paid extra for the carving station at the buffet but unfortunately the meat was very chewy and overcooked, so that was a little disappointing. But everything else was delicious, and Falkner also has a lot of Gluten Free options on their menu which was good for our guests. Krissy helped keep everything running smoothly and on-schedule during the reception too - from special dances to the toasts to the cake cutting. Everything flowed really nicely and we were able to open the dance floor pretty early which was good because our guests danced the entire time!! It was seriously the best day - better than we ever could have expected! At the end of the night, we did a grand exit and my husband and I left for our mini-honeymoon in Dana Point straight from the reception so we needed to make sure we had all of our luggage, cards, guestbook, etc. packed in the car. I gave Krissy a list of things that needed to come with us before the wedding and she did not forget a single thing! I was seriously so impressed. She even sent us off with some champagne for the road which was so sweet :) We can't thank everyone at Falkner enough for our amazing wedding day!! If you are looking for a gorgeous winery venue in Temecula and an awesome coordinator, look no further than Falkner Winery!

I recently got married in July and we had the best experience with Falkner Winery. Out of all the venues we toured my husband and I were not only satisfied with the beauty of Falkner, but we were so pleased with how organized and how much information Loretta was able to provide us in making our decision to have our wedding at their winery. She asked questions and showed pictures to help ensure that we were picking the right time of year to get married. I'm such a visual person, so I appreciated that very much.
After making our decision to get married at Falkner and starting the planning process I would have a million questions. Krissy patiently and effortlessly answered each and every one of them, making me feel comfortable and even more secure in our decision. As the wedding date approached I naturally had more detail oriented questions and ideas I'd like, Krissy was again always all ears and provided me with great feedback.
On the Rehearsal & Wedding Day I do not think we could've asked for a better Event Manager than Krissy. She ran Rehearsal smoothly, yet still helped maintain order (with 6 people on each side makes for a lot of side conversations). This lead me and my husband to have more confidence that our Wedding Day would run just as smooth. Our Wedding Day was beyond perfect. Everything flowed smoothly and I know this can all be attributed to this venue and Krissy. I felt like I didn't have anything to stress out about because it was all thought of beforehand. If anything was needed Krissy was there in a heartbeat. She even ran to get my Mom a cup of water before the ceremony started because her nerves got the best of her. Bottom line, if you want a wedding with beautiful scenery, wonderful staff, a fair and knowledgeable owner and an amazing Event Manager than you won't be disappointed with Falkner Winery!!!

Beautiful outdoor setting for the wedding and reception. Everything was in bloom the end of July. Lots of shade and great weather. Wonderful food. Everyone loved the market lighting and twinkling candles. Krissy, our coordinator, did a fantastic job keeping everyone calm and happy. Highly recommend Falkner for any wedding.

Falkner Winery has legitimately made all of my wedding venue dreams come true. When searching for the perfect spot, my husband and I saw a lot of spots that didn’t fit the exact vision we were going for. Until we stepped into Falkner Winery. I remember when we got there we saw the garden reception area, looked at each other and said “this is it”. With the biggest smile on our faces. I still get chills thinking about how perfect it was! The views are so spectacular and so beautiful and whimsical it hit every single look we were going for. The food was amazing and the wine was so delicious!! You just can’t go wrong with this place! Let alone, the staff was absolutely amazing! The owner Loretta Falkner was the person who originally toured us around her property. The next day we emailed her telling her was wanted to book!! She was so awesome! Loretta is so fortunate to have her colleague and day of coordinator Krissy. SHE WAS SO AMAZING. There isn’t even enough space for me to write how awesome Krissy is. She was so quick to reply to all my emails. My wedding day would not have gone so smoothly if it wasn’t for her. She was our guardian angel that day and handled everything with poise and ease. My husband and I are so grateful for Krissy. Whoever books this venue is so lucky to have her! Thank you again, Falkner Winery! We love you!!!

5 Stars doesn't do Falkner winery justice, Yelp, I need more stars! We were looking for an outdoor garden wedding and this venue exceeded our expectations. Beautiful is an understatement.
The professionalism, care, attentive & helpful spirit, personable service, attention to detail, everything was so spectacular-spectacular, from my first tour mid July 2017, to the culmination of our wedding on 03/17/18. This was the ONLY wedding venue tour that we needed to take, it literally encompassed every important dimension of our dream wedding. We fell head over heels in love upon first sight.
Thank you sooo much Falkner winery, we look forward to celebrating our 1 year anniversary with you next year!

We had our wedding at Falkner Winery on 3/19/18, and the experience was nothing short of amazing. Loretta was always very responsive with any questions I emailed her and she ensured me everything would run smoothly-we live in Ohio, so we had to plan everything via phone/email. Silvana was our coordinator, and she was awesome. She made sure everything moved along the way it should, was always at our beck and call, and was just a wonderful person to have present on our wedding day. The food was delicious, and we had so many people comment to us after the wedding how much they enjoyed it. Falkner has a stunning view and every single employee we came in contact with at Falkner provided us with excellent customer service. Not only on our wedding day, but on the two other occasions we visited Falkner as well. Thank you, Falkner Winery, for helping to make sure our day was special!

I can not express how absolutely AMAZING Falkner Winery and their wedding team is. Our wedding day on was a dream come true all thanks to them! From the start Loretta was so sweet and answered all of our questions and concerns quickly and professionally. Her chearful friendly personality really made you feel welcome and a part of the Falkner Winery family. Then came Krissy. Oh My Lanta! There are no words for how amazing she is! I've met other wedding managers or day of coordinators and no one compares to Krissy. I was expecting at least something to go wrong on our wedding day because usually something does.. but nothing did! Our wedding day was PERFECT! And IF there was a problem, Krissy and her team were so quick and good at fixing it that NO ONE noticed. Not even this bride! One thing that really impressed me is they set up EVERYTHING for you. Even the stuff we brought from home. The food and wine were so delicious. The professionalism the employees have is too notch and the venue and view is BEAUTIFUL. Our wedding day was defiantly the BEST DAY EVER. And I owe it ALL to Falkner Winery, Loretta, Krissy and their team! Thank you SO much for making our day PERFECT! I HIGHLY recommend this venue to anyone looking for the perfect wedding in wine country!

We had our wedding here October 15, 2017 in the pinnacle and it was so amazing! We fell in love with the ceremony site in the vineyard as soon as we saw it and knew this was where we wanted to have our wedding. Loretta the owner of the winery was a pleasure to work with. She was very prompt and responded to any questions in a timely manner. That is so helpful when trying to coordinate with your vendors! Our day of coordinator Cassie was on top of everything. We did not have to worry about anything the day of the wedding. Everything went perfectly as planned thanks to Cassie. She was there to put us at ease. We also used 3 vendors(officiant, dj & cake) from their preferred vendor list which were amazing! We chose not to do a food tasting before the wedding but everything we chose for the buffet was delicious. Also, the option for having the cocktail hour in the barrel room was great, our guests loved it. My fiancé and I dreamed of having a wedding in Temecula and the affordability of this venue is incredible. I would highly recommend Falkner Winery for your wedding Day. Not only is it beautiful but they really make sure you have a perfect wedding day!

Falkner was a great package at a very reasonable price! Their packages offer a lot which gave us an opportunity to add some personalize touches for our wedding. They have a great relationship with a lot of vendors in the area, which is helpful especially since you will be working with a few different ones so its nice that they all know the venue, and the people they will be running into. This was the case for our flowers and our sweetheart table since we rented out own separately. Both os which spoke very highly of both the venue and Loretta, the owner. Communication is great between Loretta and the coordinator which was AWESOME to help with the stress of planning. With their help I felt that I was able to enjoy my engagement and my wedding day! The day of the event we ran into some problems and Cassie was ALL over it, she was super flexible and willing to work with any hiccups that came up so really allowed me the opportunity to just enjoy my guest and the dance floor! THANK YOU CASSIE!

I cannot express how amazing Falkner Winery was on my big day. Not only did they make the whole process as easy as possible, they were there and available whenever I needed them. Loretta was quick with responses to any questions I had and was so amazing with us. We gave her our budget and she helped us create the most perfect day. Then there is Krissy. Words cannot explain how lucky Falkner is to have seriously the best Wedding Day Coordinator there is!!!! She was so amazing. Handled everything the day of and made my big day feel like it was out of a fairy tale. She dealt with all the details and kept the day moving so smoothly, that if there was an issue I had no clue about it. The team at Falkner Winery was beyond excellent and thanks to them I had my dream wedding become a reality. The food and wine were amazing and you couldn't ask for a better view and venue. All I can do is thank you Falkner for making this brides big day dreams come true. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for the perfect wedding.

It is with great pleasure to give my highest of recommendations to Falkner Winery. Krissy and her team were INCREDIBLE to work with! She is so calm, creative, organized, and friendly and made our wedding day perfect! My fiancé originally found Falkner and I immediately fell in love! We chose to get married on the Pinnacle side which is just beautiful, it’s like 3 venues in 1 location! The enchanted walkway/ceremony site are phenomenal, the Barrel Room for the cocktail hour is nice and cool for a hot wedding day, then upstairs to the restaurant for the reception with a view of the vines and wine country is breathtaking. I’ve been to plenty of weddings where the food wasn’t good but the food here was amazing! I had lots of guests tell me how much they enjoyed the food. Krissy and her team made sure everything went perfectly and even packed up our decorations so we could enjoy our time dancing with friends and family. I couldn’t thank them enough for making our wedding day one that I will never forget! If you are reading this review… go book your date because you aren’t going to find another venue this well priced, a friendlier staff, and Krissy! Thank you, thank you, thank you, for making our dream day perfect and beautiful!!!!!
PS… Make sure you stop by the tasting room to see Caroline! She helped us anytime we came to visit and we even invited her to our wedding! So lucky to call her a friend!!

I don't know where to begin about how amazing this place is. From day one Loretta and her team have truly made everything about us and our wedding day and not about the all might $$ like so many other venues. They were such a pleasure to work with and so helpful with all the small details leading up to our wedding. Their communication by phone, e-mail and text made everything so easy. 5-Stars for flexibility is a total understatement in my opinion. We chose the garden venue, and all week leading up to our wedding the weather was warm, sunny and 95 in May. The day before our wedding the rain forecasted for the next week moved in quicker than expected. In our contract we were liable to provide a tent in the event of bad weather for an additional cost. The morning of our wedding it poured rain, was 50 degrees and 40 m/h winds. Unfortunately, all the rental companies were all out of tents and they couldn't find anything for our garden wedding. Our fantastic coordinator Krissy, not wanting to stress me out, just handled it and made it work. Though they didn't have to, they closed their tasting room early to set up and moved our entire reception inside so our guests were comfortable. Our band and dance floor was set up in their barrel room and everyone stayed warm and dry while we danced the night away. Everyone went above and beyond to make sure our wedding was fabulous even if it wasn't what we had originally pictured. It was a night/wedding no one will ever forget and it would have never been if it wasn't for the amazing staff and coordinators. Oh and the food is delicious...that is the first thing our friends and family tell us when they talk about the wedding. If I could do it all over again, I would do it here in a heart beat! I can't give them enough kudos for ALL they did and didn't have to do for us.

Loretta was extremely flexable me helpful when we were selecting our dates and vendors. She gave us a list of vendors which work with her and the Falkner crew often. Everyone was knowledgeable, friendly and more than willing to help us. Cassie, our wedding coordinator was amazing. She was prompt, helpful and had great ideas. During the wedding, she worked nonstop to make sure everything went smoothly. Cassie made sure we had everything we needed and all of our guests and the wedding party were where they needed to be when they needed to be there. We were very happy with the Falkner Winery and strongly recommend it for your wedding!! Not to mention the wine is great!!!

I cannot express enough what an amazing venue this is! The outdoor wedding site was absolutely gorgeous and the indoor Pinnacle was stunning at night for our reception. The staff and ownership at Falkner were a joy to work with. Krissy, our wedding coordinator was impeccable, going above and beyond and even helping me out with my special needs daughter. Loretta the owner was involved throughout the process, always responsive to my many questions and helpful with numerous special requests. It was so wonderful to be able to relax and enjoy my special day, knowing that all details were being well taken care of. I highly recommend this wedding venue and would give more stars if I could. Our experience was flawless from start to finish and it doesn't hurt that the wine is fabulous!

Falkner Winery was the first and only winery we toured for our venue. We knew after meeting Loretta and touring the grounds it was the perfect place for us! We wanted an outdoor wedding so we chose the Garden. It provided the perfect setting! Loretta, Cassie, the staff, food, wine and scenery couldn't have been more perfect for us. We absolutely loved everything about Falkner Winery!! They are amazing!

From our first meet with Loretta until the day of the event it was perfect communication and delivery was perfection down to every detail.

Oh and the bridal suite was gorgeous and spacious. Krissy and Loretta were soooo amazing to work with and will literally accommodate anything to make your special day perfect. Everybody absolutely loved the wine (they even bought bottles to take home). Oh and the food! Everybody kept saying how amazing the food was!! Ugh I can't say enough good things!

We had an absolutely beautiful wedding at Falkner Winery - my husband and I got married at the Pinnacle Garden and our wedding was everything we imagined and more. Loretta was very helpful right from the beginning and was flexible with our requests (i.e. doing a sparklers exit). Our wedding coordinator, Cassandra, which was included in our package met with us a few weeks before the wedding to get all the details in place. Throughout all of our planning, Loretta made herself available to answer all of our questions. The food was amazing as well and the wait staff were very attentive to our guests. Also, we still have guests raving about our wine choices (perks of being a wine club member). Thank you Falkner Winery for helping us have the wedding of our dreams.

We had an absolutely beautiful wedding at Falkner! The planning and execution was perfect! Working with Loretta to plan all the details was easy as she provided GREAT, reliable and responsive vendors. The venue was amazing and food and wine were incredible! Our guest continually comment when they see us how much fun they had and how great the venue was. This is by far the best venue and the best value for a winery wedding in temecula!

Everything about our wedding at Falkner Winery was just incredible! Loretta was very prompt, kind and reasonable with our pricing needs. From beginning until the day off she was available for any questions we had.
Silvana and Tina - our 'in-house' wedding planners were wonderful! Very helpful and sweet and now friends!
The food, oh my, the food.. AMAZING! Who says the bride doesn't eat at her wedding?! I most certainly did and enjoyed every bite. The top sirloin was juicy and tender, MAC-n-cheese out of this world and the zucchini and squash medley delicious.
Venue was perfect, sunset was perfect, staff was perfect, the whole experience was perfect. Not one hiccup the entire evening, all thanks to Falkner Winery! I would recommend them one hundred times over!

Falkner Winery was the most beautiful, picturesque venue a girl could want. Every single wedding guest (and non-wedding guests that saw my wedding video/pictures via social media) said it was the beautiful wedding they had ever been to or seen. The owner, Loretta, is incredibly easy to work with and very accommodating. I was an out-of-town bride and the entire wedding planning process with Loretta and her wedding coordinator, Cassie, was the easiest process ever...zero stress involved because they take care of everything...from the food, drinks, table settings, table linens, table numbers, vendor recommendations...everything! I would highly recommend Falkner Winery if you want a remarkably gorgeous venue with a stress-free planning process!

It seems like every big event has some hiccups or at least one minor disaster! This was not the case with Falkner! If I had to create the perfect wedding experience, it would start with Falkner! Loretta and Krissy were such a pleasure to work with! I'm generally one to only leave negative reviews but they deserve a huge kuddos! My fiance and I got married on July 8th, a week later we're here on our honeymoon and I feel compelled to leave a review. My wife and I were not the most decisive when it came to the wedding so having Loretta and Krissy to help navigate us was so helpful! For the few things we wanted to do out of the norm, they were very accommodating! We feel like we had a special find with Falkner! Thank you for putting up with our crazy families :-)
Thank you so much for making the most important day of our life, the best day of our life!

Falkner Winery is gorgeous. We loved our wedding coordinator, Chrissy. Chrissy was patient and made the day go so smoothly. We also loved working with Loretta. She made you feel like part of the family. The reception food in the Pinnacle Room was outstanding. The guests raved and said it was the best food they've ever had at a wedding reception. It was! The ravioli was unfreaking believable!

The first time we visited Falkner Winery, we immediately fell in love. We checked other venues in Temecula but Falkner captured our hearts with its breathtaking view. Their wedding package has everything you need plus unlimited wine and beer! Loretta, the owner, was very helpful and made sure we were within budget. She was very flexible with our options and catered to our request to serve a BBQ menu for dinner. Krissy Komlenic was our Wedding Coordinator and she’s the best! We met her 2 months before our wedding for food and wine tasting; and she also was with us on our Wedding Rehearsal the day before the wedding. Krissy made sure everything ran smoothly - from following our timeline to setting up a few of our requests to cuing our wedding march. After our exit march, there was already a tray of hors d'oeuvres and glasses of wine and champagne waiting for us! She never made us feel rushed, she ensured that my groom and I were part of the cocktail hour. She also helped me bustle my gown (3 layers was no joke!) and even use the loo! We were the first to be served at dinner and she kept bringing us wine (we said we wanted to taste all 4 wines!). Krissy was very accommodating and friendly, replies to emails quickly, and she definitely knows the ins-and-outs of a wedding. You can never go wrong with her. Even the bartenders were lovely, I remember them putting up a sign that the bar was already closed, but my Dad still wanted a drink. When he said he was the Father of the Bride, he was immediately poured a drink! Our wedding was stress-free and beyond beautiful thanks to all Falkner Winery staff!

My wedding was an absolute DREAM thanks to Falkner Winery and their incredible staff. The moment I stepped foot on the property I knew this was where I wanted to get married. The grounds are beyond gorgeous and the service is top notch! Loretta, the owner of the winery, is bubbly, friendly and energetic. She was there throughout the whole entire process to answer any questions and was prompt and professional. Krissy was our wedding coordinator and I cannot say enough good things about her! She listened to everything I said and helped make my dream become a reality. The best part was I knew I could completely trust her to take care of all of my needs. And for a bride planning her entire wedding on her own, that was invaluable. We had our ceremony down on the lower lawn and the reception in the Pinnacle Restaurant which was the best of both worlds. The day of our wedding was completely flawless! The weather was beyond gorgeous and the sunset was breathtaking! If there was a problem I NEVER knew about it. I was actually able to enjoy our wedding and relax the whole evening. The food was delicious and all the guests raved about it. Krissy made sure we got our food first so we were actually able to eat it and have a quiet moment together at our sweetheart table. It was WONDERFUL. Our pictures came out beautifully too! This is the BEST setting for a winery wedding. I cannot say enough good things about this venue. I would do it all over again 100 times if I could! Thank you Falkner Winery for truly giving me the best day of my entire life!

After scouting many locations in Temecula for our wedding ceremony and reception site, Falkner Winery was the standout choice for us. It's natural beauty is unparalleled. Upon our first visit to the winery we not only met Krissy - the best coordinator in the world who was by our side every step of the way - but we also met the owner Loretta - which is just one of the many ways that Falkner rises above all other options. Where else do you meet the owner to talk to them about your questions / let them know what you want? We looked at around 50-60 different wedding locations and Falkner is the only place where the owner made him/herself available to us. Additionally, our wedding had some special needs that had to be figured out. My husband is Indian and I am Catholic so we needed to do two ceremonies, and our Indian ceremony was definitely more "outside the box" than the ceremony that most venues provide. While other locations tried to make our wedding fit in with what they typically do, Falkner made it clear that they were there to make sure our wedding suited OUR needs - not the other way around. They have wonderful packages to chose from if you want to go the standard route, but also help you customize something more specific if that is what you want / need. In the end - Falkner was phenomenal at creating OUR dream wedding which I know we wouldn't have had anywhere else.
The food was amazing, the wine fantastic, the location is GORGEOUS, and best of all the service is impeccable - not just on the wedding day but every step of the way! Krissy handled all of my needs with ease and made sure that I was having fun instead of worrying about what needed to happen when - that's her job and she excels at it! All of our family and friends said it was the best wedding they've ever been to. My only regret is that we're only getting married once - because we'd love to go back to Falkner and do it again!

Hi All,
So I know I'm late, but these past 2 months have been hectic with the wedding, a big move, and a new job! I just wanted to be clear that my tardiness has nothing at all to do with the service or attentiveness of Falkner Winery. I absolutely LOVE THIS PLACE!!! Krissy was our wedding coordinator and she was amazing! She made sure everything was set up how we envisioned (if not better), she made sure that Derrick and I had a chance to eat, she made sure the little brothers and nephews behaved themselves, and most importantly she put ketchup on our table!! lol Match made in heaven!
I would recommend Falkner Winery for anyone looking for that beautiful, natural ambiance. Everything up there is so gorgeous! It allows you to save on decor and flowers because the view is just breath taking. The owner Loretta is also a gem. She worked with me every step of the way and I am so grateful to have had such an amazing experience.
Everyone should get married here! It's gorgeous, the food is excellent and Krissy will keep you sane and stress free. Worth every penny :)

I cannot say how much I loved having my wedding at Falkner Winery. When looking for wedding venues, I only looked at Falkner and one other one. Honestly, the other one was my original dream, but I did not find the people there half as welcoming and warm as the Falkner employees. After booking our wedding, we joined the wine club, and were there often. The people in the tasting room knew who we were and we always so nice and serviceable. Loretta Falkner and our wedding coordinator, Krissy, were always extremely responsive and helpful in any emails or phone calls we made leading up to the wedding. I never met Loretta, but Krissy was absolutely a star. AMAZING.
From the time we first met her on our initial tour, to coming back to book, to coming in for our final design meeting, and especially the day of…she was a rock star from start to finish. She always had great ideas for things concerning the wedding and made sure everything I wanted was in place and ready to go. During the wedding, she was spectacular at making sure things moved along, which was my biggest concern. She made sure my husband and I, along with the bridal party, had food and drinks for the cocktail hour while we took pictures, kept people’s speeches on track and flowing, served our dinner for us, and, even when the wedding was over, brought my husband and I beers while we waited for our ride to our hotel.
If you are considering booking Falkner, do it. You won’t regret it. The staff is amazing and the venue itself was beautiful and looked like a fairytale. I wouldn’t change a thing, and I am so sad that it’s over, but I am so glad I have great experiences to look back on for a lifetime. Thanks, Falkner! (And especially, Krissy.)

We had an amazing experience using Falkner Winery as our wedding ceremony and reception location. Loretta did a great job walking us through the property, and Krissy was amazing in coordinating and executing the day.
I'm so grateful we found Falkner when we started looking for wedding locations. The property itself is beautiful, and they really take advantage of it with the pinnacle ceremony location overlooking the vineyard. The yard garden reception area is amazing; the lighting is beautiful, the bar is immense, and they really know how to lay out the space to get the most out of it. The reception hit the exact tones and feel we were hoping for, classy and elegant while also feeling relaxed and comfortable. We also had a pre-ceremony gathering in the barrel room, which is a great space and was an awesome start to the afternoon.
We found Krissy to be exceptionally responsive and flexible to everything we wanted to include in the reception (how many people have bounce houses as a marquee feature??), and she was awesome guiding it all through on the day of. Her staff was fantastic too, I was really blown away. I watched one lady pause from pouring champagne for the toast in order to go help our daughter who was complaining about another boy being mean to her. Really above and beyond stuff, it felt like being at a party thrown for us by good friends.
The food was wonderful, exactly as we'd tasted and our guests were raving about it. The bar service was great, and they were happy to serve some specialty beer we brought in on top of what they provided in the standard package.
I would highly recommend Falkner to anyone looking for a wedding venue, if we had it to do again we would book with them in a heartbeat.

LOVE LOVE LOVE Falkner Winery!
We were married on the Pinnacle side and it was magical. The location was beautiful, Krissy and Loretta were responsive to my millions of emails, they were patient with me, helpful, and supportive the whole time!
The food was great (I will say, if you order the steak, ask them to cook it medium instead of medium-rare, some of our guests thought it was a little too rare for them) but other than that everyone loved it!
Krissy was on top of everything and really helpful when it came to coordinating our bridal party, letting us enjoy the moment and making sure we had our important decor pieces out and then returned to us.
Loretta was attentive and responded to all my emails in a timely manner.
Again, I can not stress how detailed, on top of everything, and professional this venue is. It is great for photos and amazing overall.

Our wedding day was absolutely perfect at Falkner! From the day we walked in to visit the venue for the first time, Loretta and Krissy were very helpful. Our coordinator Krissy, was amazing and the day couldn't have gone smoother with all her help. We also hosted our rehearsal dinner in the garden and it turned out so beautiful. The entire staff was helpful and on top of everything. It helped relived so much stress and allowed my husband and I to truly enjoy the entire weekend. I love then entire winery and I'm so glad that we chose this as the place to celebrate our wedding!

We had our wedding at the lovely Falkner Winery. What a FANTASTIC experience. From the first meeting with the lovely Loretta (who is so accommodating and kind) to the day of the wedding. The setting was absolutely beautiful. We chose to have the wedding in the Pinnacle. It's this fantastic restaurant that overlooks the vineyard. The sunset is just ridiculous beautiful. The ceremony was out on this grassy plot in between the vineyard. It was just beautiful. Then the food. The food is not half bad for wedding food. We were just a tiny bit disappointed at the tasting..but the day of the food ended up being really pretty tasty! Like I said, for wedding food..this is really quite yummy! Lots of options to choose from as well. Then our wedding coordinator- KRISSY- oh my gosh. She was the absolute best. She made the day happen. She is such a hard worker and sweet person. So easy to work with. She's very honest and realistic. She knows what will work and won't. Her advice was super helpful. She made sure our wedding went very smoothly. THANKS KRISSY. The day was perfect. We are so pleased. Wouldn't change a thing! Thanks Falkner Winery. Highly recommend them.

I loved Falkner!! We had our wedding there on July 18. Loretta and Krissy are an amazing team! From the moment we stepped foot on the property we knew it was where we were going to get married. The sweeping views of the vines from Pinnacle and ceremony site were breathtaking. Loretta and Krissy were always available by email if we had any questions in the planning process. The food was delicious and all of the staff were very friendly.
Krissy, the on site coordinator was great! She wrangled my crazy family (which can sometimes be like herding cats) through the rehearsal and remained cool calm and collected throughout the entire day of the ceremony. Having rain in the middle of July on your wedding day is not every bride’s dream (it definitely wasn’t mine) but Falkner took everything in stride. We had to change locations on the property but they set up the barrel room beautifully. Krissy made sure we stayed on our timeline and took care of everything. She even helped give some of the more “bossy” people in my family jobs to keep them busy and off my already full bridal radar. I would recommend this venue to anyone looking for a beautiful location with people who really do care about making sure you have the best day possible.

From the monment that we called Falkner Winery, Loretta Falkner was warm informative,and quick to respond with any question we had. She personally set up an appointment and met with me to show us the winery with in that week.Then when we met her in person she excitedly showed us the the winery and explained how everything would take place. The winery is beautiful, the perfect place for a wedding or any event. Krissy the wedding coordinator is friendly, patient and very helpful. The staff knows what they are doing and made our wedding memorable and made all the preparations feel effortless. I highly recommend Falkner Winery for its location, professionalism and service.

I got so many compliments that I had the best wedding reception anyone has ever been to! Falkner was so helpful with accommodating all the little things, even bringing bridesmaids lunch while getting ready! Krissy was my coordinator and she was the best!!! I can't wait to go back and have the food there for our anniversary!

Krissy - our wedding coordinator from Falkner - is the absolute best in the business!! She listened to our every need at our meetings prior to our wedding day and was super gracious when I would pop in and make unplanned visits. I had no stress the day of the wedding knowing everything was going to be perfect and under control thanks to Krissy. She even came up with amazing ideas for my handmade decor when I struggled to find/have an idea for their location. Both Loretta and Krissy were very accommodating! Because we were the only wedding that day we were able (for a few $'s more -- so worth it!!) to have our ceremony at the pinnacle ceremony site an our reception in the yard garden area. Both Loretta and Krissy were very prompt with email exchanges.
A majority of our guests were very familiar with Temecula wine country but had never been to a wedding at Falkner! They had no idea the pinnacle ceremony site existed - having wine tasted at Falkner before and were very impressed with the venue and Falkner's service. They raved about the views and the vines. It's totally worth noting we had an incredible sunset during our first dance! Our guests also loved the food & wine as much as we did!! All around amazing venue and wedding experience. Also for brides like me who are all about the photos...our photos are phenomenal especially the ones taken during the "golden hour" in the vines after the ceremony!

We just had our wedding at Falkner Winery in June 2015 and it went off without a hitch! We knew we wanted both our ceremony and reception to be outdoors so we chose the Yard Garden area. Our coordinator Krissy was amazing and put my mind at ease about absolutely everything. She was responsive and attentive to our every need. The food was great, service impeccable, and our guests had a wonderful time. We will always have a special place in our hearts for Falkner, Krissy, and her whole team for helping make our wedding day a success!

It is without reservation that I recommend Falkner Winery to any bride considering a Temecula wedding. Falkner provided us with the wedding of our dreams – and made the entire process completely stress-free (no easy feat when it comes to wedding planning!). We chose the Pinnacle side, with our ceremony on a hillside overlooking the gorgeous vines. We had our cocktail hour in the barrel room and our reception in their Pinnacle restaurant with a breathtaking view of the valley. Not only was the setting absolutely stunning, every detail went off without a hitch thanks to our absolutely incredible coordinator, Krissy. I was a very detail-oriented bride, with a list of specific requests that I was afraid they may find daunting. However, the entire Falkner team are consummate professionals and every SINGLE detail was enacted just as we’d envisioned. If there were any problems, we were not aware as Krissy handled it all – even serving my husband and I our dinners and making sure we ate before mingling. She checked on us throughout the night, kept the timing right on schedule, and from our initial planning meeting to saying goodbye to her on the big day, was a huge source of support, encouragement, and calm! We feel SO blessed to have had her with us on the most important day of our lives – she is not only talented, but clearly loves what she does and made us feel so very special despite all of the weddings she must run! Loretta is always incredibly responsive and helpful. We quickly noticed all of her awards during our initial meeting with her, and it was immediately evident in our dealings with her why they had been bestowed. She is amazing – she knows her business, knows her vendors, and knows her brides, and quite frankly, her knowledge and experience is invaluable. Additionally, the food and wine was absolutely delicious, and we still have guests commenting on the selections. From the setting to the service, we cannot say enough about Falkner Winey. Book now!

I already knew I wanted to get married at a winery in Temecula, and Falkner is the best! You can't beat their amazing views. We got married in the secret garden/pinancle room package with a plated dinner. It's so beautiful. People are still talking about it. Our coordinator, Nancy was amazing. She took care of us all night and made sure everything went smoothly.

Our wedding was an absolute dream, in fact - it was better than a dream. Falkner winery is such a beautiful venue for a wedding and we feel so blessed and thankful to be able to have had our wedding there. It was perfect. We wanted our guests to experience what we experienced when we first visited Falkner for wine tasting. At the time, we only saw the upper garden area and just loved how intimate it was. We just had such a great feeling about the place. We knew it was where we wanted to get married. Knowing that, we scheduled a tour with Loretta and she blew us away with the lower garden ceremony area and pinnacle reception hall. We had no idea there were so much more to the winery than what we initially saw. We loved everything about it and booked that day (a year in advance - when you know you know). Best decision we ever made. Loretta was so awesome to work with, she answered all of our questions and even quickly responded to my random questions at odd hours of the day. A few months before our wedding, we met our day of coordinator - Krissy. Oh how we loved Krissy! It felt as if we've known her forever. She truly helped bring our vision to life and made the process so easy and seamless. I provided her what she needed and she pulled everything off without a hitch. Our guests continue to talk about the wedding and have said it was one of the most beautiful weddings they have been to. I referred one of my colleagues who is getting married there in Sept. and my husband has referred his colleague as well. It's just such a great venue with some pretty remarkable people that will ensure a wonderful and memorable experience. Thank you, Loretta and team for being part of one the best days of our lives. Needless to say, you can't go wrong with Falkner Winery - great venue, good people, great food and exceptional overall experience. You won't be disappointed.

Love, love, love this venue. It was last in our tireless search for a wedding spot. They include so much for what you pay and let me tell you, the food and wine is simply superb! If I could do it all over again, I would pick this place all over again. If you're lucky, you'll get Krissy as your coordinator- she is awesome! I want to keep this short and sweet, so if you're still deciding or haven't yet, this is definitely the place for you. I didn't have to worry about a single thing! All I remember on my wedding day is how much fun I had! That says it all.

Amazing sunset ceremony overlooking a beautiful vineyard. Reception was at the Pinnacle restaurant that transformed into a gorgeous and fun filled party for all my family and friends. Staff was very professional and helpful. This winery stands out from the other wineries because it sits atop a hill overlooking the vineyards. Amazing views, memories, and pictures that I will always remember from our special day !

We had our wedding at Falkner on May 3rd, 2015 and have nothing but good memories. For our wedding we choose to do the Yard Garden venue. Our wedding at Falkner went above and beyond our own expectations! Loretta the owner and Krissy K. our coordinator are both incredible people to work with. They are very sweet and kind ladies who really care about their clients. Loretta was always quick to answer me directly with any questions I had. Once our wedding got closer we got our wedding coordinator Krissy . Krissy made sure our day went exactly as we had pictured, granted there was some things that went wrong given the windy weather we had but Krissy took it in her own hands and worked her wedding coordinator magic and made everything just as perfect as our original plan. Krissy was our right hand women all night. She made sure as soon as the ceremony was over that my husband and I (and our bridal party) got to enjoy in our cocktail hour by bringing us drinks and food where ever we were. She was always there when we needed her. Before the reception she helped bussle my dress while my mother was entertaining our guests while my husband was in the bathroom with a nose bleed. She made sure when it was dinner time that we were the fist ones to get served and from there she followed through and made sure everyone else was served in a timely manner. She never made us feel rushed. It was so stress free knowing our set up and tear down was 100% taken care of by Krissy and her team. Krissy was a huge part in our big day and we will forever be grateful we had her to help make it all possible and make our wedding something we will always remember. We loved getting to meet and work with the amazing staff Falkner had to offer. Our wedding was beyond perfect.

I LOVED Falkner Winery so much that I joined the wine club and plan on coming back for many many different types of events whether it be dinner, girls weekend out, lunch with my folks. anniversary, or just because. Loretta and Krissy covered all the bases, dotted the I's and crossed all the T's. They made sure I had everything I needed. The venue itself is amazing. I had the yard garden package and it was perfect. I loved that pretty much everything I could think of other than the the florist, dj, cake, and photographer was already there and they had all the other vendor suggestions ready. The staff was quick and I was not without a drink or yummy food the entire time. Krissy was there the entire time from tour, planning and the whole entire day of. I don't know what I would have done without her!
The view was amazing and the natural colors in the sunset and the lights they put up in their trees and over the reception area made the entire night seem so magical. The bartender, whom I feel so bad that I can't remember his name, was so nice, funny, and entertaining. I would recommend this venue to anyone and everyone. You will not be disappointed.
And all the wines are delicious. All of them.

When I was looking for a venue, I was looking for a place where I could have a summer night wedding. A place in a beautiful garden, where it was warm and I could have market lights strung across the clear dark sky. After we visited Falkner Winery, there was no doubt the Yard Garden would be the perfect setting. What we loved: The staff is beyond amazing to work with. Loretta, the owner, personally made sure we were taken care of. It was refreshing to have that quality service from the top. At other wineries/venues, you may never meet, let alone see the owners. Nancy was our wedding coordinator and she was an absolute angel from the wedding heavens. Any question, concern, want or need was taken care of with clear confidence that everything would be perfect. The day of staff was great too, friendly and very kind. Equipment and services. 80% of what you would need to host a wedding, Falkner has it to offer in their price. There is NO better deal than Falkner! Food, drinks, tables, chairs, lines, china, staff, wedding coordinator, dance floor, and the list goes on. I felt like all we needed to do was to show up with flowers in hand because everything was taken care of. The beauty of the venue. If you’re looking for an outdoor wedding venue, the yard garden is a perfect location. Market lights included! To be warned: The venue is located in the awesome location where the ocean breeze cools down from the Temecula heat. But from 3pm to 5pm, it can get a bit windy. Do not worry! The winds die down at exactly 5pm. I think it’s important to share because I freaked out for a second but nature worked it out perfectly. Promise! What my guests loved: The location, the beauty of the venue, the staff and especially the FOOD. The food is delicious! People can be skeptical about wedding food and it gets worst if it’s buffet style. Not at Falkner. They have their wonderful chef cater in a full functioning kitchen which is a huge plus. The food is amazing! We are thrilled to have picke

We had the outside yard venue at Falkner Winery. Everything turned out so beautiful, everybody was impressed with not only how beautiful the venue was but how awesome the service was as well. We had Nancy as out coordinator and she was AMAZING! They know how to throw a wedding!

It really couldn't have been a more beautiful day, everything was PERFECT. My husband and i fell in love with this venue as soon as we set foot on that long wooden porch entrance. And let me say it was the perfect place for our rustic themed wedding. Loretta was AWESOME. She booked our wedding and was so organized and very educated on everything wedding! She was awesome at answering any of my questions and keeping us informed throughout the 8 month time frame we had between the booking and actual wedding date.
As we got closer, i got to know our day of coordinator, Nancy. Nancy was THE BEST! At no moment did i feel worried, my complete confidence lied in her. She immediately gave me that vibe with her quirky, go-getter, positive attitude. I must have emailed her a million times a day the week before the wedding, i felt like i was so annoying! But Nancy was always there to answer the smallest question i had, and for that I'm so thankful! She did an excellent job on the day of our wedding, being so hands-on. She even helped during my freakout moment when i swear it felt like an hour of my sister trying to figure out my bustle. My wedding set up was perfect, timeline went perfect, and everyone was happy, thanks to Nancy!
I really feel like i couldn't have picked a better venue. We had a garden wedding, fully outdoors at 6pm. Weather was perfect, not hot at all and by that time the wind had died down. All my guests kept commenting about how beautiful everything was. The views all around were breath-taking and made a perfect backdrop for our wedding photos. The food was AMAZING. Another compliment from guests. We were so busy greeting our guests that we barely had 10 mins to sit down and eat, but boy oh boy i remember loving that sirloin, mushroom chicken, and the yummy sides. The open beer and wine bar was definitely a crowd pleaser! Im so happy we found Falkner and wouldn't change anything about our experience. Thank You Lorretta and Nancy and all your staff!

I had my wedding here on 8/8/14 and it was absolutely perfect. Krissy did an amazing job as a coordinator, making sure I had everything I needed. The location (the garden area) was perfect, the Falkner team set up all of my decor and flowers, I didn't have to worry about a thing. The entire Falkner team seemed to really care about making my night perfect, I think her name is Silvale, brought me some magic spray that took red wine off of my dress. Everyone raved about how beautiful the location was, how delicious the food was, and how much fun they had. You get what you pay for and I had my fairy tale wedding here. Thanks Falkner Winery & Krissy!

I cannot say enough good things about this venue. It absolutely was the reason my wedding was as perfect as it was: Gorgeous lush vineyard location made our pictures effortlessly beautiful. Wonderful coordinators to help you with all the details. Great food blew everyone away. The BEST value you will find anywhere in Temecula!

The negotiation process was smooth and clear. Loretta was very attentive and helpful. I had Krissy as my wedding coordinator and she was INCREDIBLE. She paid close attention to all my requests and was a very good listener. My wedding was everything I've always wanted!!!
Thank you so much Loretta & Krissy,

I had my wedding in July of 2013, and this review is long overdue. However, everyone at Falkner Winery (Stacy and especially Loretta Falkner) were terrific. The reason why we decided to take a look at the venue, despite them not having my original date was because my sister loved how responsive and friendly Loretta was. At first site, my heart sunk because I knew that a gorgeous venue like this would have been out of my price range. However, Loretta was more than flexible and willing to work with us to ensure we had the wedding of our dreams.
Though we had to communicate mostly via email since I lived in Phoenix, Loretta was very quick with her responses, no matter what time of day or if it was on a weekend.
The venue is absolutely gorgeous, the ceremony site makes you feel like you're in Alice in Wonderland, and the Pinnacle restaurant was a perfect place to have the reception and the food was phenomenal.
If you're planning on having your wedding in Temecula, I highly recommend Falkner Winery over any other venue (I've had friends who did them elsewhere and mine was the best!)

We just had our wedding at Falkner on March 22, 2014. I can say that using this venue really took the stress out of the wedding. From start to finish the staff at Falkner Winery went out of their way to make sure that we got everything we needed. The owner of the winery Loretta can seem a bit abrupt at first, but in dealing with her throughout the year I understood that she is passionate about her winery and really wants to make sure that you get what you need. KRISSY!!! Krissy, is the wedding coordinator of all wedding coordinators!!! She is hands down one of the best people I have ever had the good fortune of knowing. She went out of her way to make sure that every detail of the wedding was taken care of. I have never seen anyone work as hard at their job, and truly care about what they're doing as much as Krissy. She took care of absolutely EVERYTHING!! From signs, to table numbers, to changing the linens at the last minute, to making sure that we had chairs for grandparents to sit in at cocktail hour, Krissy leaves no detail out. Our wedding was the perfect day, in the perfect setting, with the best coordinator in the world.

Falkner Winery was an amazing venue. I got married in the upper garden behind the tasting room (which is cheaper and IMHO, actually the better of their two wedding locations). Firstly, it's gorgeous. During the day, the sun set back-lights the venue. Once it gets dark, there are beautiful twinkle lights everywhere providing soft lighting. The food is great. They even did a customized menu for us that wasn't part of their normal menu for no additional charge. The chef listened to our input during the tasting and I felt like they were really working to make it fit what I imagined. They also include an open beer/wine bar. Only basic basic domestic beers and their wine, but it's unlimited and free, which my guests appreciated. They also provide a day of coordinator - mine was Stacey - who did an amazing job. She created my wedding timeline with me and coordinated with vendors. She made me feel like she would have everything figured out for me - and she did. The day went by perfectly. She also handled anything that came up day-of without stressing me out. Finally, the owner, Loretta Falkner, is very laid-back and direct with her venue. Her cost includes everything except the cake, dress, flowers, and extra decor. That means gratuity for all the staff is included already, tax is included already, everything she promises and no surprise charges. She allowed us to bring and they served our outside beer/wine/champagne without charging a corking fee. She also didn't charge extra for cake cutting fees. Everything was clear and up-front. And... she worked with me and I got a great price. Overall, I would recommend this venue to anyone getting married in the Temecula wineries. Many of my guests have already let me know it was the best/most beautiful/most fun wedding they'd been to and it's largely thanks to Falkner Winery.

We had our September outdoor wedding in the Garden area at Falkner Winery. It was absolutely gorgeous. We could not have dreamed of a more perfect day. The leaves were changing, the sun was setting, and everything was outdoors and beautiful. Tons of our guests commented on how it was the most beautiful wedding they had ever been to. We are from out of state and Loretta and Stacey were absolutely wonderful to work with. They were very accommodating and went above and beyond to make sure they were available to us when we were in town and that they were doing things we couldn't when we were back home. This was not our first wedding venue we toured but because of the value we ended up choosing Falkner. I could not be happier that we did, as I had no complaints. I would recommend Falkner Winery to anyone who asked me, and say that if you want an absolute flawless wedding coordinator that will assist you in whatever you need to ask for Stacey. Thank you again to the Loretta and the staff at Falkner for making the day of our dreams come true!

Falkner was an amazing place to have our special day! We were so happy with the way everything turned out. Their value was so good when you compare other places. Falkner did not charge cake cutting fees and other misc fees that other venues charge. The bar was an open bar, which is also a really good value. The food was amazing, we had people talking about how good the food was! The setting was to die for!! We chose to have it in their garden setting since we are in southern CA and wanted an outdoor wedding. The winery closed at 5pm, so it was a completely private wedding. Loretta answered any emails I sent super fast, and everyone in the staff was professional and helpful. We couldn't have picked a better place and recommend this to anyone and everyone!

Our wedding here was a dream come true. Beautiful and never wanted it to end. We had the garden wedding and the food was a 9. Fenominal wedding food all my guests loved it and raved about the night. The staff was amazing and our coordinator nancy was so amazing I can't speak highly enough of her. She made us so relaxed and made sure all our wishes were possible. Loretta the owner was just fantastic. I certainly recommend this venue for any romantic couples who are looking to have a beautiful wedding without the heavy price tag of one.
My hubby and I paid for our own wedding and yes we would do it again same location if we have to. this venue was out of this world beautiful and private.

Our wedding was the best day of my life so far, and it would not have been nearly as perfect anywhere other than Falkner Winery!
My husband and I wanted a winery wedding and were astonished to see how expensive they were before stumbling upon Falkner...their all-inclusive package is truly an amazing deal. The winery is absolutely gorgeous - we wanted an outdoor, rustic feeling wedding and that is exactly what we got in the garden/yard area. Beautiful twinkle lights wrap all of the trees, it's a perfect setting!
Loretta was very helpful during the entire process, as was Stacey, Falkner's wedding coordinator. On the day of, she made sure everyone was where they needed to be, when they needed to be, and the night was as smooth as I had hoped for. The food & wine - amazing. I highly recommend the chipotle mahi mahi with the lime cream sauce, and the portabello mushroom ravioli, and of course the luscious lips wine!
They are also very accommodating with premium beer choices - my husband is a beer aficionado and Stacey made it easy for him to get the Stone IPA he wanted. We have the most phenomenal pictures in the vineyards outside, and the light during our ceremony was this beautiful golden color...the natural beauty of this place is really must-see. I can't tell you how many people told us this was the best wedding they've ever been to, something every bride secretly wants to hear! :)
My only complaint is that we had requested the top layer of our cake be saved, and unfortunately whoever cut the cake didn't get the memo, so we weren't able to save it. Once I emailed Stacey after the wedding to tell her about this, I got a pretty generic reply not really even addressing my complaint. That was disappointing, but as the only thing that went wrong on our wedding day, I'll take it!
I would absolutely recommend Falkner to any future bride...thanks Loretta and Stacey!

This was the wedding of my dreams! My husband and I are from Canada and spent so many hours of research and stress trying to find the right place in California to hold our wedding. We finally stumbled on the idea of having it at a vineyard as it would make a beautiful natural setting for a wedding that we couldn't exactly bring too much stuff to. We looked at many different wineries trying to find the right one, the one that would allow so few people, etc.. As soon as we came across Falkner Winery, we knew it was the one for us! Loretta was very quick at putting together a package for us (and a extremely reasonably priced one!) and answering our dozens, upon dozens, upon dozens of emails and questions we had. We got really excited as the date neared because we got to speak to Stacey about the menu choices, decor, etc... And she was soo incredibly helpful with it all!
Of course it's very nerve-wracking when you can't see the venue before hand, but we were blown away when we got there. We chose the garden ceremony and reception and it was just perfect!! The weather was beautiful, and everything just looked amazing! Stacey was so incredibly on the ball with everything, helping us with every little detail, making sure we ate (which by the way the food was INCREDIBLE!!! We got SO many compliments on it all! Stacey ensured we were fed, and even packed us food to go!) making sure everything was in order, EVERYTHING! I can't thank her enough! And not just Stacey, all the staff we encountered were extremely professional, friendly and helpful!
All our guests raved at how it was the best wedding they had been to, and we certainly had an amazing time! My only regret is that it couldn't last all night as we were having too much fun!! I only wish we could re-do the entire evening just so I could have as much fun as I did that night! It exceeded my expectations by far and I cannot thank Loretta, Stacey, and all the staff enough! THANK YOU!!! :)

The garden is an incredibly amazing event for a wedding. It was an intimate setting and the glow of the lights over the dance floor after sunset was beautiful. I decorated with lots of bright colors and it truly was an enchanted evening.
Loretta, the owner quickly answered any question that I had, I had hundreds.
The vendors on their list were incredible to work with.
Stacey was great to work with. She was on the ball and answered every question. She knows her stuff.

I will forever be thankful that we chose to have our wedding and reception at Falkner Winery! From the very beginning, Loretta and Stacy were wonderful to work with. Loretta worked with us to help us find the right package to fit within our budget, and then throughout the whole planning process, she was easy to reach and quick to respond to all my questions. Stacy was absolutely incredible as our wedding manager! She made sure everything was perfect before, during and after the wedding, and I'm convinced that she is the main reason why the ceremony and reception ran so smoothly. All of the guests absolutely LOVED the venue and said it was one of the most beautiful weddings they had been to. The food was delicious and the service was excellent. Loretta, Stacy, and the staff at Falkner Winery brought my dream wedding to life!

Absolutely breathtaking setting and views! Up high on a hill (There are several pretty vineyards in Temecula that are on flat land-not nearly as special as this venue) which gives your guests beautiful views and your photographer a lot of beautiful photo options. We had the vineyard to ourselves for the night because we had a large enough guest list. I would try and do this as we had the ceremony in the vineyard, cocktails in the Pinnacle (Gorgeous vineyard views!), dinner, dancing, cake cutting in the garden (String lights overhead a must) and late night dancing back in the Pinnacle. Our guests raved over the beautiful setting and romantic atmosphere! Most importantly, Our daughter and her husband LOVED their wedding and cannot stop talking about how beautiful it was!

Everything was perfect before and during the wedding. I was an out of state bride that really wasn't looking forward to planning a wedding from 3,000 miles away but working with Falkner couldn't have been any easier. Loretta (winery owner) really knows her stuff and only wants the best for her customers. By using Falkner Winery's recommended vendor list, I was able to find all of my vendors in one week and they were all fantastic! Stacy (Falkner wedding coordinator) was great and really knows about weddings and how to make sure everything runs smoothly.
