Monserate Winery Reviews

I couldnt recommend Monserate more. Carissa and Kiki were absolutely amazing and they made our wedding perfect. They went above and beyond and were so incredibly helpful. The day of the wedding went by seamlessly.

Monserate Winery made our wedding a dream. Their team is so helpful and made our big day everything I wanted and more. The venue was beautiful and I love how there is multiple options on where you can get married on their property. Annie was very responsive and flexible with all of my requests. During the day of the wedding, I didn’t have to worry about one thing at all and felt very confident in their team to handle everything. I can’t say enough good things about this venue.

Having our wedding at Monserate Winery was a dream!! Kiki and her team were super helpful throughout the process. Their new Tuscany venue is where we got married and it turned out beautifully. I highly recommend!

Oh my goodness, where do we even begin. Having our wedding at Monserate was the BEST decision we've ever made. The venue was stunning (winery in SoCal ... duh), but the real sell are the people that work there. Annie + the team made our dreams become a reality, working with us every step of the way. It can be so overwhelming to plan a wedding, but at Monserate, it feels achievable. If you are looking for a venue that allows for outside catering, plus has incredible wine and venue space, you need to book here. We heard more compliments about the venue AND staff than we can remember which is the BEST feeling. You have to book here!!

Monserate was a beautiful wedding venue and winery. It has a perfect outdoor ceremony space under trees and cocktail/reception space around the pond. The trees and pond provided a perfect backdrop for the ceremony and shade for guests. The turf lawn and cement floor under the awning created a lovely reception space for dinner and dancing.

Wine and bar service from Monserate was great. All of the white and red wines we chose were delicious as well as the full bar service offered by Monserate. Kiki and the rest of the Monserate staff were extremely helpful throughout the planning process and day of the wedding. Many of the tables and chairs for ceremony and reception are included from Monserate, reducing the number of items needing to be rented from caterers or other vendors. They were also very flexible with any last minute changes. We would highly recommend Monserate to anyone looking for a winery wedding venue!

Monserate winery was an amazing wedding venue. It has so much space for people to spread out. The ceremony sites are breathtakingly beautiful. Each ceremony site has large trees that provide so much shade for the guest, so if you're getting married in the summer like I did, it wasn't too hot. The ponds are such a gorgeous backdrop for photos. The day went so smoothly. Working with Annie, the venue coordinator, was really fun too. She helped us organize every little detail about the day so that we were prepared. Everyone at my wedding kept telling me how much they loved the venue :)

This venue was wonderful, every detail was perfect and it was so naturally beautiful for a wedding!

On Friday March 24th all our dreams came true when we had our wedding at the gorgeous grounds of Monserate Winery. Annie their coordinator for the last year has been both professional & pleasant to work with from beginning to end. Our rehearsal, rehearsal dinner & wedding day went so smooth with the help of Annie & her staff! We are so incredibly grateful to them and so happy we chose this venue for the most important day of our lives!

Monserate Winery became our "go-to" place from the minute we entered the tasting room. The staff are so welcoming and the environment beckons you to return again and again! We enjoyed our times here so much that my son not only chose to propose here, but he and his bride were married on this beautiful property as well! Monserate Winery gets our highest recommendation!

Absolutely loved our wedding experience at Monserate. Annie and her staff were friendly and accommodating throughout the process. The venue is gorgeous and all my vendors were able to thrive. Would recommend this venue!!

Monserate is an absolutely beautiful winery, the scenery alone is worth going with them! Annie and her team there were fantastic and very easy to work with. Can't recommend them enough!

We had our wedding November 5th, 2022 at Monserate. It was an absolute DREAM. My (now) husband and I worked with Annie throughout the whole time we planned our wedding. She was absolutely amazing and made the whole experience/day of perfect. She responded quickly, made sure we understood everything, and that we had everything we needed on our special day. All the workers were wonderful as well and the venue itself is absolutely stunning. All our guests loved it and had a great time.

This place is such a gem. You will absolutely love this venue if you’re looking for something beautiful, customizable, and private. From the the ceremony sites under the gorgeous sycamore trees to the grassy lawn and lake not to mention the endless vineyards - your eyes will light up. Our wedding guests are still telling us this is the nicest wedding they have ever been to. This venue puts a lot of time and effort into making your day unforgettable - and Annie is the greatest! So helpful, kind, and responsive. She helped my fiancé and I with so much during the planning process and the day of went off without a hitch! Can’t recommend this venue enough ❤️

Monserate Winery was the perfect place to get married. The setting is beautiful - a perfect mix of nature and thoughtful construction. The staff was amazing - especially Annie! Annie was there for every step of the process. She was supportive while being very relaxed. The wine made by Monserate is amazing as well. Overall I’d highly recommend Monserate winery for any couple looking to get married at a beautiful, affordable, and truly special venue.

Monserate is the dream venue! We had our wedding here in May 2022 and it was more perfect and beautiful than we could have ever imagined. From the beginning, Annie was always so helpful, informative and available to answer any and all of our questions. She, and all of the Monserate staff, went above and beyond to help our vision for our big day come to life. The majority of comments we got from guests were about how gorgeous the venue was and how awesome their staff was. Monserate may be a Fallbrook hidden gem right now, but I know it will be an extremely sought after venue in the very near future. If you're on the fence, just stop by for a glass of wine to check it out, or get a tour from Annie, and you'll be sold...it's the best! :)

I attended a wedding as a guest and the experience was nothing short of amazing. The ceremony took place beside a beautiful vineyard and underneath several old sycamore trees. The reception was underneath the pergolas with the pond, trees, and sunset as the backdrop. The food was delicious and the wine was even better!

We couldn't be happier with the entire wedding experience at Monserate Winery. From the moment we booked with Annie, the quality of service and detail, to the gorgeous venue, both the wedding planning and wedding day were perfect! My family and friends were raving about this venue and the natural beauty of its surroundings. Thank you to Annie and Monserate Winery for making my daughters wedding the perfect day she had dreamed of!

We visited Monserate when it was dirt, trees and vines. There were no buildings, the wine wasn't ready and landscaping for the venue had just begun. However, the energy of the property, it's natural beauty and the family's story compelled us to book on faith.

We wanted a vineyard with water and the option of a full bar.
Very few venues in the Temecula/Fallbrook area offer all of that. Most of the wineries don't have a liquor license or a natural water feature. Monserate ended up being a perfect fit for us.

I could not have been happier with my Monserate experience from start to finish! Annie and her team were an absolute delight. Our ceremony was in their standard site, but we wanted our guests to experience all of the property so we planned our cocktails to be across the pond amidst the vines and our reception on another side next to the pond. The celebration was immersive and our guests haven't stopped raving about how beautiful and magical Monserate is.

The day of our wedding Annie ran a tight ship! She was lovely with all of our family/guests, made sure things ran on time. She even made sure my husband's favorite whiskey was on hand :) It's the little, personal touches that make this venure and the team so special. The experience is personal, not corporate. Your wedding experience truly matters to Annie.
Communication between Annie, myself and my designer (Oak and the Owl) was excellent as well. I can honestly say that if there were hiccups on the day I didn't notice.
Bonus - their wine is delicious too!! No compromises with Monserate Winery.
Thank you to Annie and the entire family/team!

This is a world class property which continues to get more lovely all the time! It’s family owned and provides top quality service and attention to detail. My daughter’s wedding was beautiful and we couldn’t be happier with the venue and staff. I would highly recommend!

We signed our contract for a wedding at Tuscan Estate prior to the project being completed and just had our wedding this past weekend. The venue is gorgeous and everything screams Italy. I personally loved all the cobblestone. We had our reception in the Barrel Room which accommodated 180 people well. I wouldn't go more than that. From the linen, silverware, goblet cups, and chairs.. the place is very photogenic and beautiful. The courtyard has my favorite market string lights, which adds to the romantic feel. My bridesmaids and I really enjoyed the bridal suite as well. It's spacious, new, and a great place to take candid pictures while getting ready. My husband and his groomsmen also enjoyed their suite that had a keg, TVs, and games! The picture opportunity on this venue is immeasurable.

The staff at Monserate Winery were very pleasant to work with. They are diligent, genuine, and most importantly, fun to work with. Kiki was amazing. She always replied to my calls, emails, and texts and I can't put into words how much that helps an anxious and stressed bride. She really made sure my vision for decor and timeline can true. On numerous accounts I spoke to other staff members and they were all pleasant as well. I appreciated their flexibility and accommodations. The only thing that was a downfall to having a lot of guests and a plated meal is the amount of time it takes for the food to be served. Looking back I wish I would've asked for more servers or a different plan for food to be served more efficiently. Overall though, my wedding day was perfect in my eyes and I had such an amazing day surrounded by my loved ones. I would recommend Monserate Winery to any prospective couples.
