    Exceeded all expectations

    We cannot recommend this group enough. They exceeded my husband's and I's expectations of what our wedding could have been.

    We found this place by accident by looking through wineries in Temecula after a last-minute cancelation with another venue. The team worked with us the next day. We had a great tour and wine tasting and, after a short discussion, quickly chose Leoness.

    During the following year, they did have a change of staff but stayed in contact with us and kept us in the loop every step.

    Alex and Taryn eventually were the people we worked with, and I could write a book about how amazing they treated us and ensure that...

    Perfect for an intimate dinner

    The restaurant was quick with responses. It was priced adequately for a lovely experience. The staff was very attentive and made the experience even better.

    Perfect Venue - Beautiful Views & Great Coordinators!

    You cannot beat the beautiful vineyard views that Leoness Cellars provides. The backdrop to the ceremony location is just stunning! I still have guests raving that Leoness Cellars was the most beautiful wedding venue they have seen. This venue also provides the unique experience of walking through the vines to get to the reception area, creating a fun photo opportunity for the guests during cocktail hour.

    The Barrel Room is the perfect setting for the reception. It really immerses you into feeling like you're in the wine production room and brings the winery theme full circle. Just have some up lighting around the room and that's all you'll have to do since the room is already so...

    Highly recommend!!! We had the best wedding!!

    Leoness Cellars was the most beautiful venue and perfect location for our wedding! The ceremony spot overlooking the vines is so incredible and breath taking! And the barrel room makes for an incredible evening with your guests and loved ones. The ceremony spot is so beautiful it really doesn't require much of anything in terms of decorations. You will feel like you have been transported to Europe. The catering company used for dinner service (Temecula Catering) was exceptional. We had so many comments that the food was the best anyone had ever eaten at a wedding! We completely agree! The wine at Leoness is also so good! The staff at Leoness on rehearsal and wedding day were incredible! So...

    Absolutely breathtaking wedding

    My husband and I began our search in May 2018 for the perfect winery venue for our wedding day. We have been visiting Temecula Valley for almost four years now and absolutely love everything about wine country. We inquired at various wineries and Leoness Cellars stood out to us in so many ways. It is elegant, allows one wedding per day, a beautiful barrel room that can accommodate about 200+ guests, and has an absolute breathtaking view of the rolling vineyards at the ceremony site. Their red wines are so delicious too! When we asked to visit and look at their establishment for our potential wedding, we were greeted with a warm smile by Mary and Lindsey who showed...

    My husband and I recently got married at Leoness and we are confident that it will be a wedding that is not soon forgotten or talked about. We started the wedding venue search in January of this year, and it was an easy decision once we compared spots of where to have our wedding. Leoness really has it all. Vineyard views, spectacular wine and food, affordable, AND our amazing planner Mary and day of coordinator Alex who we now feel like we will be mailing Christmas cards! Mary made the process so easy. She was responsive and was there for us the entire planning process. When it came to the day of, I felt like I was a holiday...

    Beautiful Venue!

    Bernadette and the entire Leoness Cellars team were fantastic to work with. This Venue is truly magical. All of our guests were in awe once they walked into the ceremony lawn. I could not have asked for a better team to help make my dream wedding come true.

    Amazing wedding venue!!!

    We could not have hoped for a more perfect wedding venue than Leoness. With so many wineries in Temecula, it can be hard to choose- but the view from the ceremony lawn at Leoness made the decision easy for us. Absolutely stunning. After the ceremony, guests take a short walk through the vines to the barrel room for the reception. Our wedding was in August 2021 and the vines were bursting with green leaves and grapes- absolutely gorgeous! Our guests loved it. The only thing better than the view at Leoness was the staff. Alexandra Jones, our wedding coordinator, was extremely attentive, responsive, and so friendly from day 1 . Thanks to her, the day of was flawless. We had an absolutely perfect day, thanks to Leoness! We would recommend Leoness to anyone and everyone!!

    Me and my fiance just went by there for a tour to inquire about possibly having our wedding there and it is sooo beautiful! The lady was super helpful and honest and they took us the same day we called!! I have no problem getting ahold of her and they respond to all of my emails within 1 hour. This place is truly amazing and we look forward to having our wedding there in November of 2017.

    We are absolutely thrilled that we decided to have our wedding at the Leoness Cellars. The venue is absolutely gorgeous! So many places and different backdrops to take pics: white gazebo, brown gazebo, tasting room, barrel room, and the wine yard. Staff is professional, warm, and courteous. And the best part is that we get to have the entire facility to ourselves for the evening! Just our wedding guests; no Leoness customers. It is so wonderful to go about without running into random people or waiting in line for the restroom etc. Leoness has really great wedding packages. Catering, tables/chairs/linens, china, serving staff, wine...all excellent! Mary McCabe, our wedding coordinator, was AMAZING!! I had sprained my ankle, trashed my...

    My husband and I couldn't be more grateful to Leoness Cellars, events manager Laura Mitchell, and coordinator Mary McCabe for making our wedding day the best day possible!

    We got engaged in July 2013 and quickly started searching for a venue in Temecula. We knew that we wanted to be married at a winery but we were also looking for a more private atmosphere. We had been to Leoness before and remembered the breathtaking views of their ceremony site. However, it wasn't until we met with Laura that we knew Leoness would be the perfect place for our wedding.

    From first contact, Laura was professional, responsive, and attentive. When we met initially she gave us a tour...

    Leoness Cellars's reply:

    Thank you so much Kaitlin for the kind words! You and Michael were such a pleasure to work with. We are thrilled that we were a part of your special day and that it turned out exactly how you wanted. We are excited to see your pictures as well. Hope you come back and visit soon!

    Leoness has the most gorgeous ceremony site and the Barrel Room is larger and holds more people than the others in Temecula. From the word go, Laura and her team at Leoness were a wonderful help. We met her at least 4 times and she was always responsive to phone calls and emails. Our guests could not stop talking about how beautiful the winery was and the barrel room is such a unique place for a reception! Laura was very open to our completely redoing the suggested floor plan to meet our needs for the size of our wedding and the extra touches we added. Our family, guests and even our photographer and videographer also had never seen anything like it and thought the place stunning.

    Leoness Cellars's reply:

    Thanks Yael! We absolutely loved working with you. It was fun how you changed things up and made your wedding unique - including your first dance! We look forward to seeing you at the winery again in the future!

    I recently got married at Leoness. It was the best experience ever. The day could not have been any more perfect than it was. Laura and her team were very friendly and made the whole experience very easy. The barrel room looked amazing. The ceremony site was incredible. The pictures came out amazing. Laura and her staff were very attentive but it never felt like they were in the way or anything they made sure everything was taken care of. There were a few tiny issues but I didn't know there were any the day of the wedding because they took care of it all. My husband and I could not have been more happy with how it turned out and would defiantly recommend Leoness to anyone who wants the best experience ever.

    Leoness Cellars's reply:

    Thanks Julie...your wedding was amazing and you were such a joy to work with! Congratulations to you both!

    I was recently married at Leoness and I would highly recommend it to everyone! I was in awe from the moment I saw the view but it wasn't until I met Laura, the wedding manager that I knew I had to be married here. She was so knowledgeable and organized and wasn't pushy like the other places. Laura seemed to really care about our wedding and was so helpful throughout the whole process. She always had a hug for me, which every stressed out bride could use. The entire staff that day was amazing. The winery is gorgeous and the food was great too! They exceeded my expectations. Truly phenomenal!

    Leoness Cellars's reply:

    Thanks you for the wonderful review and we are thrilled you were so happy with everything! Laura is very knowledgeable and we are lucky to have her. Thanks again and we hope to see you back soon!

    I recently got married at Leoness Cellars and it was absolutely perfect. From the beginning, the events team was very helpful and informative. Mary, Britney, and Lindsay were all wonderful to work with - their attention to detail made things very easy for me! Everyone there is super nice and excited to help make your day special. The location is stunning. The ceremony site is right next to the vines and sits on a hill, which gives an amazing view. The guests are able to walk through the vines to get to the reception site, which I thought was a unique feature to Leoness. Couldn't recommend this place enough! Can't wait to go back!

    When we began looking for wedding venues, I pictured a vineyard. As SD residents, I knew Temecula would be the destination. After doing my research, and visiting countless wineries, Leoness stuck out above the rest. Unlike other venues, I knew our wedding would feel intimate and private. I loved how Leoness only allowed one wedding per day. (If you're looking at Temecula venues, that's something I would definitely inquire about...). After booking our wedding with Leoness, I began working with Mary, the site coordinator. She was amazing. I loved how quickly she communicated through email. She was always available for us to meet at Leoness, and always very knowledgable and assuring. I'm slightly sad our wedding is over, because...

    Leoness went above and beyond to make our wedding a fantastic day. They had great communication leading up to the event and were very flexible with our plans. The onsite coordinator made the difference and ran things flawlessly. We even forgot a case of wine keys and they shipped them to us free of charge. Fantastic Venue!

    Everything about this place was perfect to us - the ceremony site overlooks the mountains, the barrel room is awesome, and the patio lets you spend some time outdoors with firepits if you want them lit. We did hit a few snags - even though the venue was always accommodating. The person we were working with left the company abruptly (or at least it felt that way to us) - we were transitioned to a new point person and started working with Lidia and Mary who were absolutely wonderful. Mary thought of everything and helped us along the way. We were a little worried when Leoness started undergoing some construction 10 months before we got married-- just two months...

    After doing extensive research, Leoness Cellars is one of the most beautiful venues in the area. I mean, how can you beat that ceremony view?! We booked them quickly & are so glad we did! Mary & her team were wonderful throughout the whole process & were always available to answer our MANY questions & concerns. This was somewhat of a destination wedding for us, & Mary made sure to accommodate to our schedule whenever we were in town for a meeting, always starting with a glass of wine. Mary & her team truly went above & beyond. We planned our own wedding & it was extremely DIY (even down to the bride’s brothers doing all of the décor...
