Palm Event Center in the Vineyard Reviews

We recently celebrated our wedding at the Palm Event Center, and we couldn't be happier with our choice! From the moment we stepped into the venue, we were blown away by its elegance and beauty. The decor was on point, creating the perfect ambiance for our special day.

One of the highlights was the amazing food. Our guests couldn't stop raving about the ramen bar, churro station, and fries station. Each dish was more delicious than the last, adding a unique and memorable touch to our celebration.

We loved the seamless experience provided by the Palm Event Center's preferred vendors. Every detail was flawlessly executed, making our wedding day stress-free and enjoyable. The online portal was a game-changer, allowing us to manage everything effortlessly.

The Palm Event Center accommodated all our requests and our large guest count with ease. The entire event ran like a well-oiled machine, thanks to their impeccable organization and attention to detail.

A special shoutout to our incredible coordinators, Nicole and August. They were absolute godsend, ensuring everything was on top of and that our day went off without a hitch. Their dedication and professionalism were truly remarkable.

Thank you, Palm Event Center, for making our wedding day perfect. We highly recommend this beautiful venue to any couple looking for an unforgettable and flawless wedding experience!

We had our wedding here last month and it was so fantastic! Haley was our coordinator and she made sure everything was taken care of leading up to the wedding and everything went smoothly on the day. The staff was super professional food and drink service was great- guests told us it was some of the best wedding food they'd ever had. We even had wait staff following us around as we took some sunset photos after the ceremony with snacks and cocktails- such a thoughtful touch.
The venue itself was beautiful so we didn't have to spend a ton of money on other decorations. We worked exclusively with their preferred vendors and all of them were amazing! Everyone here was fantastic, great with communication, and very professional. I highly recommend this venue if you want a beautiful, stress-free wedding!!

I have been fortunate to make my living as a professional photographer for over 3 decades, worked at countless venues all over the nation. Now base in Livermore CA, I feel extreme fortunate to be able to work at Palm Event Center. Palm Event Center hands down is one of the best wedding/event venues. The staff is top notch, truly focused on their clients and making the wedding/event run seamlessly! As a wedding/event photographer managing time, details, individuals, while still being creative is the goal at every wedding and event. This can be a challenge at times. One of the things that allows me to do my job more efficiently is have a supporting staff around me. The staff at Palm Event Center definitely fits this description! I know that when I have a wedding/event at Palm Event Center I am going to be working with the best! If you are considering wedding/event venues put Palm Event Center on top of your list. Beautiful venue, amazing food, and a staff that knows the meaning of great customer service!

We had our dream wedding at Palm Event on a warm, golden evening in October. The grape leaves were still green and the rose bushes were in full bloom! After finding this venue, we realized later that Palm Event Center is one of the highest rated wedding venues on Yelp (via Daily Meal). Don't do anymore research if you're looking for an organized, beautiful, breath-taking venue. We booked our wedding on a Thursday evening and from the day we put down our deposit, we were treated like royalty. Our coordinator, Genevieve, (shout-out to the most amazing person and best coordinator in the world!!), was organized, friendly, funny, kind and relatable. We met on Zoom for our check-ins, so no need to travel to Pleasanton. Then we had our FABULOUS food and wine tasting at the venue. Let me just say - all our our guests RAVED about their dishes on the day of the wedding. They couldn't say enough of how delicious, fresh, and wonderful their meal was. Then we treated our guests with a late night snack - pizza! It was truly perfect. Palm Event offers open bar, with a full well. We also designed signature cocktails and brought cases of Red Bull for our guests. Whenever we had questions, the team responded within 24 hours and were flexible about decor and desserts. All vendors have to provide insurance and we also bought couple's wedding insurance for the day of. Our rehearsal went without any hitches and Genevieve adjusted quickly and thoughtfully! She honestly made our day so enjoyable and stress-free. On the day of the wedding, there were some details that I wanted to change last minute with the decor and the team quickly adjusted to make our day perfect. I cannot recommend their team and kitchen staff enough! The best moments of our experience were high-quality service from the staff, beautifully maintained venue and winery (I mean the palm tree entrance itself is WOW), and the amazing food and drinks! Thank you Palm Event for making our wedding dreams come true.

Palm Event Center was everything we dreamed of for our wedding. The venue was beautiful inside and outside, especially the estate room. The food and drinks were delicious and well displayed. Genevieve was our coordinator and she was very organized and kept us on our feet through the whole process. Our whole experience from booking the venue to the day of had been wonderful. The whole team at Palm was very professional and thoughtful. We especially loved the champagne and charcuterie board for our bridal suite on the day. Thank you very much to everyone at Palm for making our day special!

The Palm event center was absolutely beautiful and we loved having our wedding there!

Genevieve our wedding coordinator was exceptional and helped us make our wedding a night to remember!

Michael and I will forever be grateful for the ladies at The Palm Event Center.

We got married in the middle of a pandemic-- July 17, 2020. We didn't cancel, we chose to do an intimate ceremony only, and postponed our reception at a later date. And what made this day even more special is that we were their first wedding ceremony since the Shelter-in-Place mandate.

Love truly overcomes ALL!

Casey, Jade, and Marlene were like our fairy godmothers (there was one more lady the day of the wedding, I just can't remember her name, she was awesome too!) -- These ladies were simply amazing -- THEY MADE IT HAPPEN!! We loved them and our families loved them. We will forever brag about their excellent customer service.

Thank you so much for being so supportive and staying positive with us! Everything was perfect and we are truly blessed to have chosen a venue ran by the most fabulous team ever.

We cannot wait to celebrate with you all again! #SequelWedding #PartTwoComingSoon

Love,
Carie & Michael

I stumbled across the Palm Event Center browsing through a photographer’s gallery. Growing up in Napa, I always wanted a wedding in Napa. However since Napa won’t allow weddings except for a handful of wineries and the fact we were paying for the wedding ourselves, we were limited to options. I took a tour to the Palm not expecting to be amazed but I was blown away. Jessica was my point of contact from the beginning. The property was gorgeous, the menu and photos of the weddings were just what I was looking for. Jessica was so organized and efficient in giving me a tour and going over options. I turn 40 in December, so I had a timeline to get married before then. Although it was only February, she informed me that there were no more Saturdays available and just a couple of Fridays and Sundays not reserved yet for 2019. She also said Monday 11.11.2019, Veterans Day was tentatively reserved and the couple had 3 days to pay their deposit That date sounded really cool that I had my heart set for it. Lucky for me, I was able to get it reserved. Through out the wedding planning, the Palm was always easily accessible and quick to respond to my calls and emails. This was essential to me because not only do I live 60 miles from the venue but my wedding planner had a baby a month before my event and I started a new job 3 and a half months before it. They were so Patient with me and explained my options thoroughly. I ended up adding day of/month of coordination with the venue. Jessica was paired up for my event and was amazing! If she wasn’t there, Jade, Nicole, Jenny or someone else was always on top of filling in for her. They do work as a team and I was never worried that I had to wait for a specific person to get back to the office or call me back after her day off. Their vendors list was great and everyone spoke so highly about the Palm Event Center and their sister venue Casa Real. I enjoyed the additional offerings they had such as the donut flambe, poke bar, churro bar, fry bar, etc for late night snacks. I wanted a balloon garland and they knew exactly who to refer. The 2 months before the wedding, my planner had her bag prematurely. My hubby was hands off the planning, so I was frazzled trying to orchestrate everything. Lucky for me Jessica was organized, poised, calm and knowledgeable about everything wedding. I am ashamed I to say I was usually late to our meetings but she made use of our time and kept calm and happy through out our meetings. The rehearsal was a bit stressful due to family dynamics and I showed up an hour late. Jessica fortunately did a walk through with my bridal party. The wedding that night was beginning to set up. So she efficiently instructed us to focus on what we needed to do which was drop off the decor and finalize the seating chart so they would know who had dietary restrictions. She met with our officiant before I got there and assured me even though we ran out of time all was good. The day of the wedding, my chaotic mind forgot the batteries for neon lights, led lights, my special table setting, film for the photo guestbook. Jessica told me to relax and not worry. I had so many items that I wanted to use but because i don’t know how to design or have my planner with me in the end, I didn’t organize my items and just brought all of them with me. Jessica worked with my florists and made use of my stuff to design a beautiful venue. My wedding originally had 90 guests but because I wanted to upgrade to the premium menu. I ended up only having 55 attend. Jessica and Jade suggested I have the event in the barrel room as opposed to the ballroom since we eliminated 4 tables. This also caused stress for me trying to figure out linen set up and hiring or not hiring litigating and rental items. In the end it worked out fabulously. I cannot recommend this place enough. They made my dreams come true!! Food was phenomenal. My guests would not stop talking about how great the food was. I also appreciated that they threw in the premium bar upgrade for top shelf alcohol plus an extra half hour as an incentive for booking one or the remaining dates in 2019.

The Palm Event Center was AMAZING!!! I had my dream wedding here. I can't sing their praises enough! The venue is gorgeous. They have an option to get married outside, or inside a gorgeous room of wine barrels, candles, and uplights (which is what we chose). The customer service is the best. They gave me multiple tours, as I wanted to bring family members to see it after I toured with my fiancé. Jessica, who gave us the tour, is so sweet and helpful! She responds quickly if you email her. Jade, the manager, was also helpful, amazing and quick to respond! Any questions we had were answered right away. They are VERY organized and professional. They are strict in their vendor policies. All vendors must be approved ahead of time. It wasn't a problem though, they approved all of our vendors in a timely manner. They sent us a cute little USB drive to us in the mail (inside a wine cork) with all of the forms we had to fill out, photo examples, vendor lists, menus, etc. They also included a free wine tasting for you and your husband. The venue is pricey, but is totally worth it for what is included! We saw some really old/nasty venues that were similarly priced and less was included! 4 and a half hours of open bar is included! We did not see that at one other venue! They have a few menu options, with upgrades if you would like. They have vegetarian and vegan options as well. The couples food tasting night was amazing as well. Each of you got practically full portions of everything on the menu! So much food! They were so generous portion-wise. It was also nice to meet other couples that were getting married there. If you get married in the winter, you get lots of freebies like outdoor lighting, mulled wine and cider, free uplighting inside, etc. We were so glad to have chosen to get married in January! If you choose a weekday or a Sunday, you also get a much better price than on a Saturday. They book very quickly, so make sure you go months in advance. A year if possible! The ONLY complaint we had is they don't have a place for the groom and his groomsman to stay before the wedding. There is a room for the women to get ready which is great. They have a little lounge behind a curtain that would be great for the men, but they charge extra for that room. But this wasn't a big deal. The guys just came to the venue ready and they hung around the bar area before the wedding. The workers did a good job of keeping my fiancé from seeing me ahead of time. We also opted for the day of wedding planner that they provided and she was amazing. A life saver! Definitely worth the add on. We had Casey as our planner. Again, she was kind, professional, organized and quick to respond. After meeting with her we felt at ease. She helped us make a timeline for the day of, and she helped to make sure we kept to that timeline. She worked with the vendors on the wedding day, so we had nothing to worry about. She will help with ANYTHING you might need on the wedding day. She was very clear and informative at the rehearsal as well. I DEFINITELY recommend the Palm Event Center for your dream wedding!

Having our wedding at the Palm was the best decision I made the staff there was so professional and helpful and made every choice so easy. Every question I asked they answered right away with multiple people checking email. Jessica was our day-of-coordinator and after several meetings and emails with I had full confidence that everything would go as planned and didn't have to worry about anything for the whole day. The venue is beautiful I fell in love with it right away the barrel everywhere and the beautiful vineyard outside really added to the romantic feel. Everything was perfect and I attribute that fully to the Palm Event Center and its staff.

Palm Event Center was amazing! It was the first venue my now husband and I visited when we were checking out venues. We couldn't help but fall in love with the place and book Palm to host our wedding reception. We initially signed our contract with Jessica and she ended up being our wedding coordinator. We loved that we had Jessica throughout this whole wedding planning process. Palm is so organized and we appreciate the timeline they provided us to keep us on track with deposits and meetings. Jessica was more than amazing! Our whole wedding party wanted their own "Jessica".

When my now husband and I first started looking at Palm Event Center for our wedding, we were in total awe of the images we found on their website and of other's weddings we found online. When we visited in person, it was even more breathtaking than we thought. They specialize in weddings and truly, it shows - the venue is a showcase in romance and the staff knows quite literally everything there is to know about weddings. They handle most things in-house: the venue spaces, day-of coordination, food/beverage, tables/linens/chairs/place settings, etc. It was so wonderful to have one vendor who took care of so much. I also cannot say enough about Casey, our day-of coordinator, and the Palm staff. They are efficient, kind, fun to work with and they know how to answer any and all crazy bride questions you may have! :-) Our guests still haven't stopped talking about how beautiful romantic, and fabulous our venue was.

If I could give the Palm Event Center and their team 10 stars, I would. We had our wedding there yesterday on 1/21/2017 and Jenny was our wedding coordinator, and the entire evening was literally perfect and a complete dream. Throughout the 13 months of planning our wedding at the Palm, we've worked hand in hand with their team and I can honestly say I've never experienced better service. They were available to answer any question we had, were extremely accommodating, and were an absolute pleasure to work with. Jenny and Jade are simply amazing, and Jenny helped ensure our entire wedding down to every detail was perfect.

Additionally, the entire Palm staff was five-star, and the best of the best. The drinks, food, dessert, and service were above and beyond. All of our guests continue to compliment us on how excellent the food and service was. The entire team at the Palm is so professional, attentive and I could not imagine our wedding day without their help. If you are considering the Palm as a wedding venue, stop looking and book them. They will make your dream wedding come true.

My fiance and I were so happy with all the services and help that everyone at Palm event center provided especially Vanessa. Everyone was extremely professional and so flexible with all of our needs. We had a traditional ceremony at the vineyard and the staff at palm event center were extremely accommodating. I would recommend this venue to anyone looking for a beautiful setting for their wedding day.

Our September 14th,2013 wedding at The Palm Event Center in Pleasanton was beautiful! It took our breath away! As soon as we walked into our venue, we were in awe of how the romantic and classy vision we had became reality. The ceremony and reception were beautifully decorated. From the intimate ceremony lighting to the rustic, elegant reception set up...they were all perfect! Guests are still complementing on how beautiful the wedding was...the romantic ambiance, mouth watering food, endless supply of quality drinks, and excellent staff. Not to mention the lighting and venue extras added a stylish touch to our wedding. The added extras to our menu...LOVE! It was highly recommended to have their "Day of Coordinator"... Yes, this is a must! Monique, you were awesome! Her incite and creativity helped put everything together. You will want to have her run the show. The staff are all super friendly and attentive. There was never any hesitation on answering questions or provide you information you may need. They are great with giving their professional suggestions... make planning a breeze! Thank you PEC! Job well done!

We walked into this place in June of 2011. We first met with Monique who was great. From day one of steppiing foot on this property everyone has been extremely helpful and answering all of our questions in a quick manner. Our Day of Coordinator was Shannon. She was great in working me on finalizing all of the final details and on the Day she was AH-MA-ZING! She was ready to handle anything hat may have come our way. I woud definitely recommend this place for anyone getting married. Oh and the food.... DELICIOUS! We got compliments all night long.

The Palm Event Center is one of the best places to have your wedding. Not only is the staff AMAZING (Monique, Clay, MacKenzie, Reed (owner) and more) - but their food and service, flexibility and willingness to make your vision come true is impeccable. The property is gorgeous which only helped add to the beauty of our day (and our pictures) -the Palm trees lining the entrance and the wrought iron gates are so 'us.' We got married in the Estate Room (where the wine barrels line the walls from floor to ceiling with tea lights in between all of the barrels and huge wrought iron chandeliers hang from above) - it was exactly what we had envisioned. Our wedding theme was the "4 C's - Candles, Candelabras, Crystals and Chandeliers" and the winery and wine barrels represented our family history of homemade wine. This venue has it all and then some! It was a perfect representation of us! The Cocktail hour was set outside with the backdrop of the vineyards...the weather was PERFECT! Then on to amazing food and drink. With the setup of some of the lounge furniture inside, allowed for a space to relax during the wedding. The floating candles they provided were exactly what we were looking for and added to our 'candle lit' theme. The staff was ALWAYS willing to help and had nothing but positive and supportive things to say about us, our event (my ring)! I cannot wait to host or attend another event there. It was absolutely PERFECT and I HIGHLY recommend this property to others!

The Palm Events Center was such an incredible place to get married and I would recommend it to anyone. The site itself is so beautiful and the staff is so professional and accommodating. We had a very unique wedding and they made sure every detail was attended to. If you can get married at Pam Events Center- do it!

We couldn't be happier with our wedding ceremony, reception, food, organization, it was all wonderful. We were married inside the Estate Room with lit candles on the wine barrels. The reception hall was just beautiful with a wonderful view of the vineyard and garden areas. Our guests can't stop telling us how beautiful everything was. The staff at Beet's Catering and Palm Event Center were wonderful. Monique was our wedding coordinator and she was fantastic. Clay Jackson was exceptional. The food was delicious. This venue was absolutely everything we hoped for and so much more.

The attention to detail in every corner of Casa Real is remarkable. The well-manicured gardens and the enchanting courtyard create a romantic ambiance that is perfect for weddings and special events. The interior spaces are equally impressive, boasting a perfect blend of modern amenities and timeless elegance.

But what truly sets Casa Real apart is the exceptional staff behind the scenes. Having witnessed the behind-the-scenes operations as a preferred vendor, I can attest to the professionalism and dedication of the staff. From the event coordinators to the catering team, everyone works seamlessly to ensure that every event at Casa Real is a truly memorable experience.

It was a wonderful, festive, themed event! The staff was so welcoming and showed such excitement for the guests. Food and drink was yummy! Beautifully decorated and everything was done in the right timeframes! Great venue.

Excellent service and the food was delicious! The bread pudding was fantastic! Decorations were very nice and the set up was very professional. Everyone was so friendly and efficient.

We had our wedding at the Palm Event Center in early June of this year and it truly was the absolute best day! From the beginning, the Palm was so easy to work with and made planning the wedding so effortless. They were quick to respond to emails or questions and executed everything perfectly the day of. As you get closer to the wedding date, you have a venue coordinator that is extremely helpful in organizing everything for the big day. The entire staff is so nice and kind and many of our friends/family even commented after of how kind the all of the venue staff were and how organized and on-top of everything was. The venue is also absolutely gorgeous! The surrounding vineyards, lush gardens, and renewed interior are stunning and our guests had nothing but positive things to say about how beautiful the venue was. Lastly, the food was absolutely AMAZING. If you are looking for amazing food from appetizers to late night snacks for you and your guests, this is absolutely the place! They also were so kind to place all the food and drinks on our sweetheart table so that we didn't have time to spend looking for appetizers or drinks, everything was right there for us to enjoy after visiting with our guests. Because they do weddings/events all the time, everything was so flawless, which allowed us to have a beautiful, stress-free, and truly perfect wedding day. We would 10/10 recommend the Palm Event Center to anyone looking to have an amazing wedding day from start to finish!

My wife and I wanted to thank you all so much for being there for us on the best day of our lives (so far). We have had multiple friends and family come up to us to say it was the most beautiful reception they had ever been to, due in large to how beautiful Palm Event Center is, how well-coordinated the event was, and how welcoming all the staff members were. We couldn't have done it without all of you. So we wanted to thank each of you - Nicole for helping us get started and coordinating through the details, Genevieve for walking us through our planning journey and being so detail oriented (hope everything is going well with the new little one!), and finally Lexi for being there for us the weekend of.

We couldn't think of a single thing that didn't go exactly as planned, and we couldn't have done it without the PEC team. The food was amazing, the wedding went EXACTLY AS PLANNED, and you gave us the wedding of our dreams! We cannot thank you enough for the absolutely perfect day in our lives.

Davy and Elaine!

From the the moment my husband and I saw The Palm- we knew it was a match made in heaven! The friendly and responsive staff answered all our questions and helped bring our wedding vision to life. The wedding weekend went off without a hitch and our day of coordinator, Genevieve made me feel at ease on the day of my wedding and helped the entire day run smooth as can be.
