    Dream Wedding, Perfect Venue

    I got married here on July 7th, 2024 and it was PERFECT. The stress of wedding planning was taken off my shoulders by the amazing coordinating, DJ, design, floral, photography, and catering team of Villa de Amore. They were so flexible, communicative, attentive, helpful and detail-oriented. They all made my wedding magical.

    On the day of, Havilah, the coordinator was an absolute angel. She is absolutely phenomenal. The schedule of events went seamlessly and we had time to do everything! We are so happy to say we truly enjoyed our wedding day.

    From the first day, we toured the villa, my husband and I just knew! The pricing is also hard to beat considering their all-inclusive covers just about everything except the cake and desserts. Their food was also SO delicious! Our guests had the best time and loved all the food! They truly have it all! Don't hesitate to tour and book this venue. They are all so kind and really make you feel right at home.

    Thank you so much Villa de Amore! We are forever grateful

    Absolute best venue for your dream wedding

    I couldn't have asked for a more perfect venue for our wedding. If you are getting married, I would HIGHLY recommend an all inclusive venue and even more so picking Villa De Amore.
    From the beginning, everyone was so friendly and easy to work with. They were incredibly helpful and responsive. The venue is absolutely beautiful. What sold us was how easy it was to plan, they take care of every single detail, including decor, coordination, florals, DJ, etc. and the best part is all the vendors work together all the time so they know how to operate as one flawless team. David (owner), Mandi (design), and Tori (coordinator) were the team we mainly worked with and they completely made my wedding dreams come true, making it a beautiful and stress free day. I could talk for hours about how much I loved this venue and team. THANK YOU VDA, every single one of you are absolutely the best.

    Best Wedding Venue!

    My husband and I got married here in October 2023- if you're looking for a wedding venue in Southern California, look no further! I truly cannot rave about Villa de Amore enough. There is a reason they were booked out a year and a half before our wedding day, so definitely book early! David, Eileen and the team just get it and they are truly experts in all things weddings. As a type A bride, it was so nice having all the details laid out and everyone at VDA being so easy to work with (with quick communication!). Almost everything is included, which saves money, time and effort not having to bring in a bunch of outside vendors, and the bar is BYOB, which helps a ton if you can get discounted alcohol. Karen, our coordinator, truly was a miracle worker and made everything run smoothly. Mandi, our designer, was amazing and helped us decide on our vision including flowers which was not my strong suit. The venue is laid out perfectly for weddings, and it's rare to have a private venue for 9 hours on your wedding day (without public wine tasting!). Many of our guests said it was the best wedding they've ever been to and loved everything about the venue. Perfect for photos and video- highly recommend upgrading to the videography package with the drone! Thank you VDA for making our big day the best ever!

    Wonderful, breathtaking venue!

    This venue is an amazing private venue with gorgeous, spacious grounds and breathtaking views. Not only is it beautiful, but its staff shows the highest level of professionalism and commitment to helping you design and execute the wedding of your dreams. Mandi and Sierah performed miracles with the design of the day and Tori executed a flawless day being the most attentive coordinator! I cannot say enough about this venue and strongly recommend it!

    Couldn't have asked for a better planning/wedding experience

    We had our wedding at VDA on 7/21/2023 and I cannot recommend this venue enough. I was a little nervous that an "all inclusive" venue would mean having to choose from certain pre-chosen options but everything we wanted they were able to do specific to our taste! The whole planning process was incredibly easy and all laid out for us. All of our guests said this was the best wedding food they ever had and the whole night VDA made sure that my husband and I had everything we needed (bringing drinks to us, appetizers to us during pictures, always asking if we needed anything but also getting to enjoy the whole night). The venue is beautiful and you can really make this exactly what you want for your wedding.

    Thanks for the memories!

    Our wedding was conducted on 7/15/2023, and we could not be happier with how it turned out!

    We booked VDA over a year in advance, and all throughout this time VDA has been clear in their communications and requests, and quick in their responsiveness to our inquiries. From flowers, cakes, photography, and music, VDA made the process so much more simple than if we had to built it all from scratch. Frankly, it likely would have cost more time and money to have the wedding we wanted (and which VDA delivered) if we had to do everything on our own, so in our minds it was a very sound investment.

    Day-of coordinators were on point. Speaking as the groom, I never felt lost or otherwise at a loss for “what to do next,” and if I did have a question, it only took a moment to scan the room to find a coordinator, and they would immediately come over to help me out. The same can be said for the wedding party as well: If there were ever any need, the coordinators were easy to spot, and quick to attend to those questions.

    (My only regret WOULD have been that I did not have time to enjoy any of the taco bar. As we were packing up for the night and leaving the venue, one of the coordinators provided me with a plate filled with tacos, despite my having not mentioned my disappointment. Again, they are INCREDIBLY attentive!)

    The venue itself needs no exaggeration: The beautiful scenery and décor are accurately depicted, and you have so much flexibility in customizing each area for yourself and your guests to relax, have fun, or revel in the moment.
    It was a bit warm the day of the wedding (apx. 93 F), but our guests were well attended to with ice water and parasols during the outdoor ceremony. Cooling did not appear to be a problem inside, and by the early evening, there was a refreshing breeze that took any remaining edge off.

    The cigar bar was a last-minute addition, and we were concerned it may have been a flop. But the stunning and inviting décor that VDA assembled as part of this feature instantly drew many members of our family, and was perhaps a “hot spot” as far as conversation, fun, and photos.

    Vendors that work with and are familiar with VDA were all wonderful, including Elegance on Display, Captured Photos Booths, Leah Marie Photography, and Ross Creations.

    Thanks for the memories!

    Best day ever!


    We had our wedding at VDA just about two weeks ago and are still on cloud 9 from it! This was a destination wedding for us and most of our guests travelled to California from the East coast. Our guests have been absolutely RAVING about how beautiful this venue is, how great the food was and just how much fun they had at our wedding. From a planning standpoint, I don't have anything but great things to say! Planning from across the country was made easy because this is an all inclusive venue. It is amazing to work with vendors who have all really worked together before. It made things so much easier for us and the day really went off flawlessly. Our coordinator Karen was beyond helpful leading up to the wedding and even more so on the day of. Mandi did a zoom call with us to help us select all the details and florals that all came out absolutely beautiful. My whole vision came to life.
    The staff at VDA are truly professionals and experts in hosting weddings. They run like a well oiled machine! I highly recommend this venue to anyone who is thinking of it as a "maybe". The pictures just don't do it justice - it is a stunning place to have your wedding!
    Thank you VDA for helping us to create our dream wedding!!

    Amazing Experience with VDA May 2023

    As the mother of the bride, I am simply overwhelmed with how enchanted and magical the whole wedding/evening was. I never dreamed it would come out as well as it did. All the staff is so professional and accommodating. The whole event was like a dream. The minister made the ceremony so memorable and touching; the cocktail hour felt like we were in Beverly Hills; the dinner was divine and so delicious and so filling; the personable DJ made the evening fun filled; the cake cutting in the rose garden was enchanted; the bar tenders were 5 star; and all the workers including the wedding coordinator were stellar. We had a cigar bar and it was a huge hit and looked like it came from a Hollywood movie set. I highly, highly recommend this venue. They were so easy to work with and so professional. It was truly a dream come true for us!

    Amazing VDA Wedding May 2023

    We truly cannot thank you VDA enough for creating such a magical wedding day for us. My husband and I both agree it was, no doubt, the best day of our lives.

    VDA is absolute perfection from the breathtaking bridal suite, to the elegant cocktail hour with a pianist and endless photo opportunities, to the sleek cigar bar (which was a huge hit!!!), to the stunning ballroom, to the incredible, super attentive and knowledgeable team.

    Every single VDA member was amazing. David and Eileen were accommodating every step of the way and answered all questions quickly. Mandi and Veronica's designs were stunning, and we could tell she truly took note of our requests. Karen, our day of coordinator was sooo sweet and meticulous. All of their recommended vendors were fabulous, and we received so many compliments on the food.

    Would highly recommend this venue to all!!! It offers the convenience of an all inclusive package yet has the flexibility to create the wedding of your dreams.

    Gorgeous venue beyond my dreams

    We hosted our wedding at Villa de Amore in March, and everything was absolutely stunning and more beautiful than I could imagine. The venue was beautifully decorated with elegant floral displays, breathtaking views, and plenty of picturesque spaces for guests to mingle and dance the night away.

    David, Eileen and the staff at VDA are all incredibly friendly, professional and accommodating. The food was delicious and plentiful, the drinks were expertly crafted and served with a smile, the cake and dessert treats were all so delicious and beautifully presented. My flowers were stunningly gorgeous and I cannot thank Mandi and Veronica enough for creating such a beautiful bouquet.

    I had the pleasure of working with Brittany as my day of wedding coordinator, and I can confidently say that she was an essential part of making the day run so seamlessly. From the very beginning, she was organized, responsive, and attentive to details. Throughout the day, Brittany was incredibly kind, calming, and supportive. She kept everyone on schedule throughout the day, helped troubleshoot any issues that arose, and allowed me to enjoy the day to the fullest. I also have to thank DJ Ross for being fantastic to work with, helping make the day run smoothly, taking the time to make sure we have all the details and timing correct, and creating some unforgettable moments with the cold sparks.

    The end result was truly unforgettable. The wedding was absolutely stunning, and everything ran like clockwork thanks to the professionalism of the entire staff. I received countless compliments from my guests about how beautiful and well-organized the day was. Everyone at VDA was a pleasure to work with, and helped make my wedding day one that I will cherish forever.

    Absolutely Magical

    Villa De Amore felt like family. From Mandy and Veronica working on design with us and getting to know us as a couple to Karen walking us through the day like a fairy godmother. It was truly a magical experience. I couldn’t imagine a better venue and group to work with. We also chose Melissa for photography and Ross for our DJ, and both of them went above and beyond.

    Breathtaking venue that is also Stress Free

    I had my wedding 2/18/23 and I had such a magical experience with Villa de Amore. My day of coordinator was Brittany and she was so great at making sure I was comfortable, fed, on schedule, and did not stress. I did not feel stressed at all. The venue itself is gorgeous and had so many places to take photos and is spacious.
    I appreciated the venue being all inclusive in which they have venders that are familiar with the area and prioritize weddings. The cake that we ordered from the vendor was just as delicious as when we tried it. The DJ had everyone dancing and having a great time. I highly recommend getting married at this location. It was wonderful to see the design team and florals become a reality. I got so many compliments on the food so thank you catering and to the bartenders for providing great service. The venue has a design team that will really create your dream wedding. I cannot thank you enough for the detail and artistry that made our wedding unique to us.

    February 2023 wedding

    If I could rate more than 5 starts I would. This all inclusive venue will make the brides wedding planning a breeze. For a set price they include flowers, food, appetizers, pianist, cake, coordinator, DJ, late night taco stand and much more. I am not a crafty person and I absolute hate party planning so when I came a cross a venue that offers it all; my decision to elect Villa De Amor was easy. The customer service was outstanding and the organization exceeded my expectation. And the venue it’s self is absolutely BEAUTIFUL! My wedding was in February and the grounds were green and lively. Not to mention we got a good amount of rain in the weeks leading up to the wedding so although the vineyards were empty they still looked green. The last item that stood out to me was that they basically have a home goods storage in the back so I got to go in there and select all the furniture and decor. It doesn’t get better than this.

    Loved our first experience

    If u don’t want to have to worry about all the small nuances and all the little details, i would HIGHLY recommend using this company. I felt like I had so little to actually worry about when it came to the wedding. They catered to my every need and were so pleasant to work. Even when it came to last minute changes. If you want a stress free wedding, book through villa de amore, you won’t regret it :)

    Perfect wedding venue

    Villa de Amore is the perfect wedding venue. My wedding was an absolute dream and I owe it all to the wonderful staff. Everyone we worked with was so helpful, especially Laura the coordinator. The designers/florists also did an amazing job. And of course the food was incredible. I can't say enough great things about this venue and highly recommend if you want an outdoor venue that is all-inclusive.

    We got married 11/12/2021 and it was hands down one of the best days of my life largely due to the amazing job they did at Villa de Amore! Everything was super organized and stress free and everything I wanted for the day plus some! Would highly recommend this venue!

    Great all-inclusive venue!

    After searching many venues, we found Villa de Amore and we are so happy we went ahead and booked them for our wedding! It really does include almost everything but the dress… stunning views, beautiful bridal suite, photographer, florist, baker, catering, linen, design, officiant, coordinator, DJ… amazing!

    Planning a wedding during COVID was stressful but VDA made the transition smooth. It was definitely a plus having almost all the vendors we needed through VDA because that meant I didn’t have to worry about reaching out to multiple vendors to see if they were available for the new wedding date; we simply told VDA the new date we wanted and they took care of the rest!

    Huge thank you to Laura, our coordinator! She. Is. Amazing. Always on top of things, answered all of my emails in a timely manner, and made sure everything ran smoothly the day of 

    The entire team goes above and beyond… they keep in touch with you throughout the wedding process, make sure all of your questions are answered, and are very professional.

    David, Eileen and the rest of the VDA team, thank you all so much for everything you did. Our wedding was beautiful; we and our guests had an amazing time. We can’t wait to come back and visit!

    Sept 2020 Wedding - Flawless and Beautiful

    What a two year ride it has been with Villa De Amore trying to plan a wedding during 2020. Lets start with the beginning. When we first arrived at VDA in 2018 after touring five possible winery event sites, we both knew immediately that we wanted to get married at VDA. This place is breath taking, unique, and your guests will absolutely be impressed. The pitch is all you need to do is show up with your dress and suit on your wedding day. Everything else is taken care of. We were sold (I was sold on the midnight taco bar).

    When we got the announcement that our wedding was canceled due to COVID a week before the wedding, we were devastated. VDA did everything in their power to make the date transfer as seamless as possible. They took care of us and the vendors. Anytime we had questions or nerves, they were always happy to talk with us and make sure all the plans are ironed out.

    The entire team and vendors were extremely professional. We had two sites, three different wedding plans, and an ever changing guest list. With all that, we did not have a single thing go wrong on our wedding. The wedding was beyond our expectations and we even planned it with them.

    Look no further if you are planning on getting married in Temecula. We could not recommend them more and we know you will be just as happy as we are with having your wedding at VDA. Thank you for being our shining moment in one of the hardest years. ~ Jessica and Dan

    Beautiful!

    Our wedding was just perfect! Laura the wedding coordinator is amazing. She is on top of it!! I loved how everything was inclusive. You get to pick out everything you want, there are just a few things you need to do yourself. It was a gorgeous venue!! We all absolutely loved it and eas so happy I got to get married there.

    Best day of my life!

    I cannot say enough amazing things about this venue. They took away all the stresses of wedding planning! Their package includes: Venue, florals, decor, DJ, photographer, cake/desserts and everything else you can possibly think of. The only thing you need to bring is alcohol and they provide mixers! Also of note, you don't have to go with their provided photographers, ministers etc. We personally chose a different photographer (not to say theirs weren't amazing!) and didn't use their minister. In the case you don't use their services there is a discount provided off the package total.

    Laura the coordinator is an angel sent from heaven. She not only answered every single on of my scatter brained questions leading up to the big day but she also was amazing during the rehearsal and big day! Many of my friends commented on how patient and nice she was. I truly owe my amazing wedding experience to her. I was never stressed out and I seriously had the best day of my life (so did my husband haha)

    The cake and desserts were made by elegance on display and she truly brought my vision to life. She was also very patient (I changed my cake design like 3 times after our initial meeting). The desserts were delicious and everything was devoured within minutes.

    The food was done by their in house catering. We had 3 passed appetizers, a salad and main course. We had the beef short rib and chicken marsala as our main choices (they also provide a vegetarian/vegan option) and wow they were so delicious. It didn't taste like typical wedding catering and our guests thoroughly enjoyed their meals.

    Decor and flowers. Wow wow wow wow. Monique and Aimee brought my vision to life. We had our walk through and went through what we liked and didn't like and she put together the entire decor and it was stunning. Same with our flowers! Everything was so beautiful and I didn't have to pick out anything. They took care of everything from the ceremony decor to centerpieces to random signs and a cigar table. It was just so beautiful.

    DJ Ross made our first dance and song theme so special. We had a greatest showman theme and prior to the wedding we discussed what we wanted and he created a custom version of the song to fit the timing of our grand entrance. He was such a joy to work with and if I ever need a DJ again he will be at the top of my life. He's honestly just a cool guy who knows how to read a crowd and get them pumped up!

    Lastly the venue is stunning. From the piano bar room to the vineyard views, there's a photo op for everyone. The staff are so welcoming and everyone said the service was impeccable. The bartenders and servers were so nice. They have security as well and she was a riot! I truly loved everything about this place. Please do not hesitate to book this venue. They will take away all of your stress and make your wedding the best day of your life!

    Best Venue and Team!

    We got married at Villa de Amore in May 2019. We always imagined that planning a wedding was going to be one of the most stressful things we would ever have to do but thankfully this was not the case. Choosing Villa de Amore as our wedding venue was the best decision we could have ever made. David and the rest of the VDA team were incredibly helpful, organized, and responsive. The venue already has a list of vendors that they work with so it removed all the stress from having to find vendors and coordinating with the venue. Monique was our wedding designer and helped customize the venue space with the abundance of accessories they have to choose from. She helped bring our vision to life, working very hard to make sure every detail at each space was perfect. Robin was our florists who helped bring our color scheme to life. She did a beautiful job with all our floral displays making it look like we spent a lot more money on flowers than we really did. Aimee is the head of catering at VDA and her team were wonderful with our guest during cocktail and dinner. The food was delicious!! Elegance in Display helped make our dessert table dream come true. Too many delicious desserts to choose from. Ross Creations played all the right music and kept our guests dancing the night away. Our photographers Adventure Stories captured every single emotion and moment beautifully. Last but not least, Laura our day of coordinator was top notch. She made sure everything that day ran smoothly making the day an absolute dream. The venue itself is beautiful with sparkling twinkle lights and amazing views all around the property. Our guests still rave about the venue to this day. We highly recommend Villa de Amore to anyone and we can’t thank them enough for making a wedding day dream come true!

    So much beauty. Highly recommend.

    Villa de Amore is the perfect wedding venue. We got married there in July 2019, and it was absolutely amazing. The natural beauty of the place is stunning. Flowers, fountains, statues, and endless photo ops. Several guests who attended our wedding are seriously considering using the venue for their own weddings or their kids’ weddings. They could not stop talking about the place. I think most guests who went to that wedding now have a photo of themselves somewhere at the venue as their new profile pic on social media. It was that gorgeous. The sunset over the beautiful Temecula hills was an incredible addition.

    This venue has preferred vendors (florist, baker, photographer, DJ, etc), who, if you choose to them, can be included in your price of the venue. It’s nice to make all of your payments in one place. We still got to work with each of the vendors individually and have our own meetings and planning sessions with them, but it was nice knowing that they are used to working at Villa de Amore and have that solid contact and relationship with the venue.

    Besides the beauty of this place, the staff is just as incredible. Laura is the day of coordinator, and she went through every detail with us while making it seem like a breeze. She was super fast to respond to emails and questions from me. I felt confident on the big day that she had every detail taken care of, and I could relax and enjoy it.

    Aimee was our caterer, and she made our guests very happy with all the delicious food. At our first food tasting she made us feel very taken care of and explained everything. She even accommodated us to come back a second time to make sure we got the menu perfect.

    Monique, the designer, made our wedding vision come to life. We were looking for a dark vintage theme, and I sent her pictures and ideas ahead of time. We then met with her to discuss and pick out decor, and she knew exactly what we were looking for. We had the best time looking through the venue’s supply of old antiques, beautiful vintage couches, and every shade and color of picture frames, candle holders, and vases you could ask for. She was quick to respond to any emails and questions from me as well. At the wedding, her choices on how to display the things we liked was impeccable. She came through 110%, and her stylized choices were a highlight of the wedding. Thank you so much Monique for your creativity and attention to detail.

    The rest of the staff was great as well, including Diana the security guard, who had my back all night and kept me from getting lost. She was even dancing at the end of the night by the entrance while we all danced at the reception. Eileen gave our initial venue tour, and her love and pride for the place was inspiring. David helped me over email, and Marcela helped us pick out our linens and reception table details.

    We used the venue’s preferred DJ, Ross Creations, their preferred baker, Elegance on Display, their preferred florist, as well as one of their preferred photographers, Adventure Stories by Us, who I was over the top impressed with, and for whom I’m leaving glowing reviews on their own respective pages.

    Villa de Amore was the perfect platform on which to have the biggest event our lives. The beauty of the space along with Monique’s decor and the professionalism and efficiency of the staff made our wedding the highlight of the summer. Thank you VDA, for everything.

    Absolutely Amazing

    the day we decided to go with Villa de Amore as our wedding venue we had a total of 6 different locations to look at. Villa de Amore was our first stop of the day. David was very easy going and calm, explained everything answered every question we had. we left to check out the nect location and while in the care the boss (my wife) said lets go grab a glass of wine because Villa De Amore is our wedding location.

    The whole process so simply simple and easy. they have everything you need and all you have to do is show up and decide what food you want, the type of cake or baked goods you want. every detail that your fiancee has about a dream wedding Villa de Amore will make it happen. you get to choose what type of chairs you sit on all the way down to table settings and decor.

    The staff are just outstanding and very helpful. The day of the wedding is just show up and enjoy they take care of everything.

    Our wedding dream come true

    We had our wedding at Villa de Amore last month and it was THE BEST decision ever. The wedding venue was beautiful, romantic and dreamy. Every corner was an Instagram-perfect photo op!

    Our VDA designer, Monique, decorated the already beautiful venue with props and "photo stations" that made our pictures even more stunning. She was very patient in helping me find the props I needed to portray the "Coco Chanel meets Great Gatsby" style that I wanted. The best part of all is that these props are included in the picture. I love Monique and appreciate her so much!

    Laura, the VDA coordinator, has been super helpful during the whole wedding planning process and her expertise truly shined on our big day. She orchestrated a very smooth wedding day and we were on time for everything activity as planned. She was also very professional and quick in replying all of my emails and messages. I could not have asked for a better coordinator.

    The food for our wedding, including both appetizers and entrees were exceptional. We chose the crab cakes, stuffed mushrooms, and cheese/bread/fruit platter for appetizers and ribeye steak and swordfish for our guest entrees. Our guests absolutely loved the food and we are still getting compliments almost a month after! Lastly, the bartenders were friendly and quick with the drinks there was barely a line.

    We cannot thank the VDA team enough for making our wedding dream come true. I've done my research on many wedding venues both in the Bay Area and Socal and VDA ranks #1 in my books in terms of venue, food, service and value. I am so glad we chose VDA for our big day!

    You should book them now!

    I don’t know how I stumbled upon Villa De Amore. Probably a late night last minute attempt to find the venue of my dreams instead of settling. When I walked into this venue I knew I’d get married here. I had a budget but at the same time not not really so it was wonderful to find a place where it was all included! No hidden fees. I had flexibility and was able to have my own cake, I still used their bakery vendor for cupcakes and my own photographer. My flowers were amazing, the food portions were great and tasted amazing. My steak literally cut like butter! My friends and family are still raving about my wedding. My husbands grandma stated it was the best wedding she’d ever been to and she’s in her 80s! I couldn’t have asked for more and honestly I want everyone to have their wedding here!

    Dream Venue for your Dream Wedding

    My husband and I got married at Villa de Amore May 2019. The moment we had stepped foot on the property we knew we had to get married at this beautiful place.
    The coordination with the Villa is as simple as it gets. You get a response to any of your questions within a day or two and David is absolutely on top of things.
    The day of the wedding was an absolute dream. The flowers came out stunning, Robin is a true artist and did an amazing job with the flowers.
    Monique is the Villa's secret weapon! She makes any of your wedding visions come true and will decorate the whole venue in a the most pictures set ups. She has a true eye for details and personalized the venue perfectly for our wedding.
    The food was absolutely delicious. People loved the appetizers and dinner, the big portions and quality of food, as well as the late night tacos. The food was an absolute hit.
    The venue lets you bring your own alcohol which we absolutely loved. The bartenders and dinner staff was on top of it. Quick and friendly service! We couldn't have asked for more.
    DJ Ross was great! He played good music and kept the crowd dancing.
    We got our cake from Elegance on Display and absolutely loved the way it turned out. It looked absolutely beautiful and tasted incredible.
    Laura the Coordinator is a true hero. She made sure that my husband and I had the most amazing day and that we had nothing to worry about. She coordinated guests, made sure everyone was taken care off, kept the day organized and most importantely made sure that bride and groom were happy and had a drink in their hand. She is amazing and I don't know what we would have done without her.

    The Villa is a dream venue come true. We received so many compliments from our guests about how beautiful this place is and how well taken care off everyone felt.
    Wedding planning becomes so easy with this venue. Do yourself a favor and don't hesitate booking. It is a stress-free and effortless way of celebrating the most important day of your life. The Villa takes care of everything without you having to worry about planning the little details. You can actually enjoy the wedding process :)
    We are so happy that we got to celebrate our wedding at this stunning venue. Villa de Amore turned our dreams into reality! We had the most amazing day

    Beautiful property with an amazing team!

    The Villa de Amore property is stunning and the staff are professional, pleasant and extremely organized! VDA was the first and only property my fiancé and I toured. We had a couple other tours scheduled but decided to cancel as we felt VDA was everything we needed and more. And we love that it is a family run business, you can tell there is a lot of love and care that has gone into the property. We finalized our contract and the various managers/vendors/coordinators have reached out to us to help us begin our planning!

    Best day ever!

    The perfect day for my daughter and my new son in law! I’m a VERY “wordy” person but everything about the wedding day (and rehearsal) was so perfect, it has taken me two weeks to compile how to express how amazing everything actually was. Let me start by saying that I am generally the planner of ALL parties and celebrations for my family as well as my company so when my daughter and her fiancé found Villa de Amore and told me that they were going to make all of the decisions on their own with the guidance/assistance/suggestions of the staff at VDA, I was shocked and a bit skeptical. They are everything and more!

    Eileen/David/Aimee: A family owned business and they all truly care about each client that comes there way. Every time to reach out with any type of questions they are quick to respond and guide you through the process. You need to realize that even though you hopefully will only be doing the wedding thing once, they handle weddings daily so let them go ahead and be the experts. They have the patience of Saints.
    Oh my goodness the food was excellent! I am a big foodie and I loved it all. Everyone could not stop talking about how good each bite was!

    Laura: The day of (and rehearsal) coordinator. This seems too small of a title for her. She should be called the “Day of EXTRAODINARE”. Laura is the sweetest person! Someday I would love to work along side her. She gently herded our family and guests like cats as we wondered around looking at everything. She was always there when you needed something but never in the way. It’s like she knew what you needed it before you did. My daughter had a tiny issue with the boning in her dress poking her side and Laura quickly grabbed some thread and stitch my daughter right into her wedding dress while she was still wearing it. Laura to the rescue!! I could go on and on about Laura but you get the idea.

    Meghan and Vishnu: These photographers are the sweetest couple. My daughter and her new husband have never taken professional photos before so they did what they were told and felt very comfortable with them. The shots are breathtaking. They will take your “must have” shots for sure but their style of photography is more so to capture the beautiful candid moments that the couple (and guests) share as the day/evening goes on. Love this!

    Diana the security guard: Now it’s not often that you make comments about how awesome a security guard is but I’m telling you that even Diana was great! She interacted with the guest that went out for air and she even ran to get my MOB bag out of the bride’s room for me then ran it back so I didn’t have to lug it around for the night.

    Flowers/Décor/Cake: I don’t know the names of who they use BUT just go with who they recommend! Flowers were beautiful and exactly what my daughter and her husband wanted. The décor (lots to choose from) was perfection! The cake was the best cake I have ever had. My family is not much of cake eaters but this cake was absolutely incredible!

    DJ Ross and Ross Creations: Lastly but certainly not least…Obviously the party portion of the reception is highly depending on just how good your MC & DJ are. Well DJ Ross did not disappoint! He kept the party going! We had ages 28-70. Dancing, laughing, lots of love & just an overall FUN night!

    This was the perfect day for my daughter and my son in law and from the mother of the bride; I must say a HUGE THANK YOU to all at VDA for helping my daughter’s dream wedding come true!! Much Love!

    GORGEOUS and Dream venue!

    David gave me an hour long tour. Everything offered makes for an enjoyable experience planning a wedding. All the difficulties that I had planning my first daughter’s wedding 5 years ago would have been avoided had I known about Villa De Amore. Hopefully this is where the wedding will be if I can afford it!!!

    Villa de Amore's reply:

    Hi Margo,

    We hope to see you and your daughter here soon! We will definitely make planning easy and she will have an amazing event :)

    A magical place to get married

    My daughter and son in law were married at Villa De Amore in 2015. It was such a wonderful experience for our family and friends. The food was excellent and overall service was impeccable.
    My son and his fiancé have decided to get married here in 2019. We are looking forward to creating more family memories at Villa De Amore.

    our vision and our day came together wonderfully

    Words and ratings cannot adequately express just how delighted we were with our big day at Villa de Amore. Although we live in Arizona we knew we wanted to get married in southern California. We took the time to tour 15 different venues and Villa de Amore was by far the best. As an all-inclusive wedding venue with a responsive staff, they made planning so easy for us despite the distance.

    There are many advantages to Villa de Amore. Firstly, the property is incredible. The landscaping and the estate are absolutely stunning and meticulously maintained. Secondly, the staff is awesome. The entire staff is responsive, kind, and professional. Thirdly, the cost is reasonable. As an all-inclusive venue, they do not nickel and dime you like many of the other venues. You supply your own alcohol which saves a great deal of money. You also have the flexibility of using their select vendors or opting for your own choice of photographer, florist, bakery or minister. Lastly, the cuisine at this venue was mouthwatering. Scheduling the tasting was easy and there were a wide variety of foods to choose from for the appetizers, salad and entrees. The plated dinner service was elegant and all the servers were professional and proficient. Who can forget the late-night street tacos? Overall, the cocktail hour and the reception dinner was a food lover’s dream. The food was delicious and our guests left not only satisfied but impressed.

    We are so grateful for the entire team at Villa de Amore. They dedicated much time and effort to ensure that our vision and our big day was as wonderful as it could be. We could not have wanted more.

The grounds are gorgeous, the catering is spectacular, and the staff could not have been more helpful and accommodating! Huge shout out to David, Laura, Monique, and Aimee for all they did to make our wedding day so special. As the bride, I could not have imagined a more perfect day, all thanks to this venue!

    Villa de Amore gave my husband and I the wedding of our dreams! The location/surrounds are absolutely breathtaking. In the distance you have the beautiful views of Temecula vineyards. On our first site visit, we immediately fell in love with the landscape. There are also a variety of different spaces (courtyard, vineyard, ballroom, rose garden, etc.) that were all utilized during our wedding which made for a dynamic night.
    David, the manager, is great and so easy to work with. He is accommodating and very responsive.
    We chose The Studio as our photographers for the big day and could not be happier with how our pictures turned out. Katie and Amanda were so great to work with. They were great at making our entire wedding party feel so comfortable in front of the camera.
    All of the food is made on site under the direction of Aimee and her catering team. We could not be happier with the quality of the meals and how meticulous the staff was at making sure all of our guests' dietary restrictions/meal choices were correct.
    DJ Ross, the Villa house DJ was there to assist our DJ and make sure everything ran smoothly and sounded great.
    Monique, our design coordinator, was able to bring our vision to life. All of the design details that I never would have dreamt of made for a picture perfect day. Our flower arrangements came out perfect!
    Laura, our wedding coordinator, is absolutely amazing. She is a super woman. She was there every step of the way to support us and made sure everyone/thing was on point. The day wouldn't have been the same without her.
    All in all, we loved everything and everyone at the Villa and would highly recommend it for their quality and professionalism. It was truly the best day of our lives.

    Villa de Amore was an amazing venue. Our guests were amazed by the property and the service. The price was also very reasonable for an all-inclusive venue and also it was BYOB so we saved a ton on alcohol!

    Stop looking! Villa de Amore is the most perfect venue in Temecula. The staff is so talented, kind, and genuine. Being that it is an all inclusive venue, it helped so much with the details and the vendors working with the Villa team. Book your wedding at Villa- you and all your guests will be stunned

    Me and my husband got married at the villa April 29th of this year and we couldn't have had a better day! Everything was perfect! The entire villa family was so helpful throughout the entire planning process. I couldn't be more grateful for them a special thanks to Aimee for the linen selection monique for all of the decor preparations and Laura for making everything happen on the day of! Everyone is so great! The venue is absolutely beautiful and we got so many compliments on the food we had selected! From appetizers to entree to happy hour tacos it was perfect! This is the most amazing venue and I would highly recommend them to anyone!

    Our Oct wedding at Villa de Amore was nothing short of awesome (!) And yes, that's awesome with an explanation mark :). Everything flowed so smoothly and was relatively stress-free, from the planning up until the big day. Also because it was an all-inclusive venue, I only had to hire a videographer and a string trio for the ceremony, but of course live music is totally optional.

    The whole Villa team is truly exceptional, and I really love how they work together...so most of the time, I can talk to one person and they will know to communicate the details/decisions to the rest of the staff and team. It just made things really easy and actually kind of fun to plan. I loved that I would get responses either immediately over the phone, or at a minimum within 24-48 hours through email. Impressive right? With so many couples, it's amazing how efficient and professional the whole Villa team was!

    My guests seemed really pleased overall with the food, drinks and overall vibe of the wedding. They commented on how gorgeous the venue was, the flower and decor really helped to bring personality to the ceremony/reception, cocktail and photo op spots. The reception went great, everyone was laughing during the games and the DJ brought tons of folks to the dancefloor. Our wedding was on a Sun, but so many guests stayed until almost the end!

    Special thanks to Sheila's crew on flowers, Monique on decor, Aimee's team for catering and table arrangements, Eileen and David for answering my many calls and emails.. and last but not least Laura, the lovely coordinator who made everything run so smoothly that day. Even the cake turned out beautiful. A+ as a whole...

    If you're looking for a lovely venue and a great team to help you put together a gorgeous wedding, I highly recommend you consider this venue, at least pay a visit to VDA. If you've already booked them, Leah Marie Photography does amazing work, and check out Sidebyside Cinema for video...Both did such a great job :).

    Charlie and I got married at Villa de Amore on October 8th, 2016. We looked at a large number of venues in the area and this one stood out for so many reasons. The obvious reason was because the venue was absolutely gorgeous, but there is much more to planning a wedding than just what you see on the big day. You work with so many people and the planning process can be very overwhelming. The staff at Villa de Amore made this process beyond easy, and so enjoyable. They treat you like a friend as opposed to just a client and put in so much effort to make sure your vision becomes a true reality. Our wedding day could not have been more perfect and we thank the Villa de Amore staff and all their recommended vendors for their professionalism, kindness, and services. As the months go by our guests still call us just to talk about how much they loved our choice in venue and all the details of the day. We HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommend this venue for any newly engaged couple!

    We absolutely had the most amazing wedding EVER and its all because Villa de Amore!!! Every single last detail exceeded all of our expectations and we had the best day of our lives! The food was unbelievable. Most weddings have OK wedding food but outs was OUTSTANDING! All of our guests raved about it! We did the Ribeye with blueberry butter, Garlic Mashed Potatoes and Cedar Plank Salmon. It was unreal.

    The flow of the night could not be more perfect. We didn't feel rushed but also didn't feel like there was ever a waiting around moment. The ceremony, cocktail hour and dinner service was perfection. The Villa are PRO'S at what they do and it shows. The venue is also STUNNING and all of our guests were at awe.

    We wish we could do it all over again and again and again and again! Thank you Villa de Amore and thank you Laura Capone, Monique, David and Eileen and everyone else you had a part in our perfect day!

    I had my Villa De Amore wedding back in June this year. Eileen, David, Aimee, and the rest of the staff were very welcoming and accommodating.

    Monique, the wedding designer, truly cares about your design ideas, and works with you to get your vision of your wedding into reality.

    Laura is so sweet and thoughtful when it comes to being the wedding coordinator. She gives her best effort to make your wedding day an unforgettable and fantastic one.

    Thank you Villa De Amore for a fantastic wedding!! :-)

    Villa de Amore is EVERY bride, groom, parents of the bride, parents of the groom, bridesmaids, groomsmen, guests, and vendors dream wedding venue. It's the picture perfect venue and planning our wedding was the same as a perfectly oiled machine. We fell in love with not only the venue, but everyone there!
    David took his time showing me around the venue and made sure I had all the time I needed to take in it’s beauty. He answered every single email I sent him within 24hours. He listened to my opinions and was truly there for me.
    Eileen, you were so excited about all the things I wanted to share from my time abroad and for the wedding and you truly made me feel like a special bride.
    Aimee and Michael took care of our catering. The food at the Villa is unforgettably DELICIOUS! We have really picky people on my side of the family and we are still receiving calls from guests telling us how incredible the food was.
    The security, servers, and bartenders were also incredible. They were so respectful, kind, and comforting to all of our guests. They all moved so quickly and never got in the way of anything. They made sure all of our guests had what they needed and never interrupted conversations among the guests.
    Monique is so creative! You show her your vision and she brings it to life. We told Monique we wanted a Tuscan winery feel and my God, our day looked and felt like we were in Italy!!
    Laura took care of our two completely different families. Let me just say that it could have been a headache the day of the wedding, but Laura, well Laura, made it into heaven on earth. She made my husband and I feel like a king and queen.

    They say you forget people throughout your lifetime, but you can never forget how someone made you feel. We felt so loved and so special working with everyone, and that is something we will cherish forever.

    If you want your wedding day to be the best day of your life without any stress, Villa de Amore is the only place to go.

    Our wedding day was beyond perfect. After being engaged to my best friend, we wanted to find the perfect venue that we could celebrate our “Happily Ever After.” We searched and visited a few venues and then came across of Villa De Amore, we scheduled an appointment and fell in love. The all-inclusive package was a big plus for us, as we were both teachers. The staff at Villa was amazing, from wedding preparation and responding to emails, to the day of making sure everything was perfect.

    The food was AMAZING! I was so impressed with the different variety of food choices they had during tastings, and it allowed for us to pick the best meals. We had so many of our guest talk and rave about the food. We enjoyed the variety of different appetizers that were offered (BBQ sliders are a must!) along with the amazing entrees. The food was beyond perfect and delicious! Aimee and her staff did an amazing job!

    Laura was a fabulous coordinator! She was so loving and made sure that everyone was taken care of, and everything went smoothly. I would have been lost without Laura and her smile. She did everything she could to make our wedding day absolutely perfect!

    Designing our perfect day couldn’t have been done with out Monique. She is amazing and took all of our ideas and Pinterest boards and made them come alive during our wedding day. She has an amazing prop room that allowed for us to use different props to add to the even beautiful landscaping and setting.

    Villa De Amore is the most beautiful wedding venue in Southern California. Our guest are still raving about how this is the “Most beautiful place” to get married and how they were able to experience one of the best weddings ever. I thank everyone at Villa De Amore for making our dream wedding come true!

    So I will admit, when we first found Villa De Amore, I was concerned about the full service aspect. What if i don't like what they are using? BUT I am SOOOO THANKFUL we went with Villa. Laura, Aimee, Eileen, David... You are all the best and I am so grateful for all your help. Laura, the wedding coordinator, is the best! She thought of everything and was always willing to help. Everyone at the Villa is amazing and you will not regret going with the Villa. Go with Villa De Amore! You can thank me later! :)

    Stop looking and book this venue!! They are absolutely amazing and make everything so flawless and beautiful! They are all inclusive, and to be honest, at first I was kind of worried about that. I was scared that everything that was included was going to be extremely basic and anything additional would be an upgrade. WRONG! They truly include everything and it turns out gorgeous and extremely convenient. For example, I found a lot of other venues were charging money for individual pieces you would want to use to decorate (like mirrors, couches, card boxes, etc.). At Villa De Amore that is all included. They have a HUGE room of different pieces you get to go through and chose from for your decor and set up. My guest were in 'aw' of the locations beauty, professionalism, flexibility, and food!! They are family owned and have a list of preferred vendors, all in which are so easy and fun to work with. You don't have to lift a finger in decorating, set up, or clean up. You just tell them your vision and wants for the day and they make it happen. Not to mention they all have such a calm and sweet demeanor. There was a good chance of rain on our wedding day, so the day before they ran me threw the different options in case of that and let me explain my vision if that did happen and make me feel so confident and comfortable that they had everything handled to a T. I cannot thank them enough for giving us truly the perfect day and making this process not a stress at all. I feel bad when brides are sick with stress over planning because my venue took care of all that and I just got to enjoy the entire process. I LOVE this venue.

    ATTENTION ALL BRIDES WHO WANT TO HAVE THE MOST PERFECT AND MAGICAL WEDDING EVER:

    Prior to my wedding, my husband and I were overwhelmed with all of the researching and planning that went into our special day. Let me help save you time when it comes to finding the PERFECT wedding venue/team of vendors (they provide almost all vendors that you could need-it is a packaged deal!) who do not make you break the bank! The entire staff/team are just the best-in every way-am I am super picky and meticulous.

    The beauty of their magical/unique/fairytale esque vineyard speaks for itself. The premise is absolutely breathtaking all throughout the year (we visited various times throughout the year and got married on April 1st). Their food is an experience all on its own. Everything is organic, made on site (by Aimee who is the best!) and dangerously delicious! The entire menu (we tried so many different options at the tasting session) is fabulous and they come in super plentiful portions at the tasting and on the wedding day. At the risk of sounding redundant, the service was exceptional! Beyond anything I could have hoped for. You DO NOT need a wedding coordinator because their Venue coordinator does EVERYTHING (way more than what "venue coordinators" typically do). Her name is Laura and she is fabulous, super communicative and genuinely cares about you having the best day ever. Decor-they have a fantasy prop room with everything and anything you could possibly want to achieve any type of genre/look/feeling. Monique is in charge of creating your vision/aesthetics throughout the entire premise and she has impeccable taste and a total sweetheart. Flowers-spit your vision out to Eileen (a complete doll!!) and she will bring it to life in the most beautiful way possible! Ross-fun, professional, sweet experienced DJ who will show your guests a great time!

    There are so many more special things about Villa de Amore that I want to share with you but I have no room left.!!!!!!!

    Our wedding day was perfect--planning the wedding was daunting for me, both my husband & I are busy physicians and the wedding came at a time where we both had just changed jobs, changed homes, and were getting settled in to our new positions. We were able to have our perfect wedding at Villa de Amore and I couldn't have imagined a better place.

    First off, looking back on the day, the whole setting was beautiful. We are both Chinese, and although typically our families (at least mine) find good food at Chinese restaurants and don't expect much from American cuisine...all our guests raved about the food, and even our health conscious relatives devoured the abundantly plated delicious entrees. My husband and I both got plates with both steak and shrimp, AND had time to eat to our heart's content. Not being able to eat ourselves was a big fear of mine (it's what my mother seems to remember most about her own wedding).

    The setting was beautiful. We had both guests from California and Chicago and they were all impressed and fell in love with the wedding venue. It seems like the guests had so much themselves at the site, many of my friends changed their Facebook photos with photos of themselves and their significant others as their profile pictures. My mother in law's friends praised her about the wedding, saying it's "the best wedding venue" they have been to. My parents and relatives don't believe that it only cost us what it did. As they say, our wedding "was a true success."

    What I loved about the wedding was the people, the setting, the quality and love that each of the staff members puts into their work. David was always super helpful, with his prompt replies to the emails. My wedding cake turned out more beautiful than I could have imagined. My decorations were beautiful. And the day of Coordinator Laura was amazing, and made the whole day stress free (even though apparently we almost lost the rings!). Coordinating only required 2-3 visits in person.

    OH MAN. Where do I even start?

    Eileen: She is the sweetest woman. Patient and helped me with the stresses of the wedding and everything else that plays into the big day. We went out there over and over and she was just as helpful before we decided to have our wedding here as she was after.

    David: Answered all of my (stupid) questions with a smile. He was super knowledgable and helped us make important decisions.

    Aimee: The food was AMAZING. She is amazing. Such a real individual and made me feel calm before and during the event. She worked with us and what we wanted to do and different ideas for food / ice cream bar / etc.

    Monique: I was probably her most boring bride. But she always had a smile on her face and she executed my vision perfectly.

    Laura: Oh Laura. I love you. If I could have Laura at every big and stressful event of my life it would make me happy. She made my day run so smoothly. She wasn't intrusive like i have seen some day of coordinators be. She would ask questions when she needed to but she ran the whole thing flawlessly without me.

    The Venue was beautiful. And they know how to run a wedding perfectly. They are total professionals and their waitstaff/ bartenders were fantastic as well. I would do my wedding here again if I could!

    My husband and I were married at Villa de Amore on December 20, 2015 and we could not be any happier than we are with our choice. We looked at two other venues and Villa de Amore was the third one (and the last!). We corresponded with David and Eileen to set up our appointment and met with Eileen the day of our appointment. When we drove up and entered Villa de Amore, it was the most beautiful venue. The long driveway made it romantic and it was private (only one wedding party per night, unlike other wineries or hotels where you have "uninvited" guests wandering around your ceremony and reception). We met with Eileen and she was such a sweetheart! She is so personable and you can tell she really gives her undivided attention to every single bride and groom, whether they book the venue or not. She took us to the bridal suite and deep down, that was the moment I knew we had to book Villa de Amore. For my husband, it was the fact that they let us bring our own alcohol (including liquor and no corkage fee) and saving us a ton of money in the end. It took us about a week to make our decision. The two choices to have the ceremony were the courtyard and the vineyard, both breath-taking in their own right. The all-inclusive package is also what drew us in; they provide your officiant or priest, DJ, florist, cake, photographer, day of coordinator, and a designer (you get a design day where you meet with Monique, who is amazing by the way, and she will help bring your vision to life with how you want your table setting, display for cake, display for the welcome board, etc.). The only two services that you must use are the caterer and the DJ. We choose to use all of their services, but brought in our photographer.

    If we could get married again, there would be no doubt in our mind that we would choose Villa de Amore. We would not change a single thing about our wedding day. It was everything that we could imagine - perfect.

    Our wedding at Villa de Amore was as perfect as perfection can get. Its a great feeling when every single one of your guests tells you on your wedding day, "This is the BEST wedding I have ever been too" or "This is the most BEAUTIFUL and PERFECT wedding i've ever attended" and that is true when you have your wedding at Villa. We booked our wedding a year in advanced as we just fell in love with the venue the moment we laid eyes on it. Eileen and David the family-owned team really make you feel like you're not just another wedding but rather like you're family.

    Our day ran so smoothly thanks to Laura, the coordinator that is included in your package. Laura is awesome and friendly and you'll love working with her! You also get the pleasure of working with their wedding designer, Monique who has such a passion for what she does and she makes you excited about your "wedding vision".

    Lets talk about the food.... YUM! The in-house catering team at Villa de Amore creates exceptionally delicious food that your guests will rave about. Aimee the catering manager will work with you on any special-requests and they even have an in-house baker that will bake fresh-bread daily. We even had baked treats at our Bridal suite the day of! Nice touch!

    All-in-all, if you're looking for a private venue with gorgeous views, great staff and service, then Villa de Amore has you covered!

    My wedding at Villa de Amore was amazing. Everything turned out perfect. The day of coordinator Laura Capone is simply amazing, she is friendly, attentive and keeps everything on track. She always made sure my groom and I were taken care of as well. I am still getting comments on how this was the most beautiful venue they have been to a wedding at! I wish I could do it all over again!

    I don't even know where to begin, so I will start from the beginning. Villa de Amore was the fifth and final venue we looked at in our search for the perfect place to get married. We loved the vineyard feel without the commercial feel of the wineries and that was the problem with the golf course as well we didn't want our wedding to be a spectacle for strangers to gawk at. The grounds are absolutely beautiful and private everything is picturesque any picture you look at from the Villa will tell you the same. The Villa is in the business of weddings and they know what they are doing. All of our vendors came recommended by Villa de Amore, we felt more comfortable hiring them because they were backed by the venue and they did not disappoint. The in house catering done by Aimee and her team was/is absolutely amazing, we received so many compliments about the meals from our guests--they loved it! The design day with Monique was a ton of fun too, the Villa is beautiful by itself but the added design elements that they offer help to personalize the venue and make it feel like yours for the day. During the course of planning I had a number of random questions and I always sent an email their way in which they were always prompt to reply. Ross the DJ did an awesome job and made sure to keep the guests on their feet. Laura our day of coordinator was sure to keep everything in order and made sure that we always had a drink in our hands :). Rehearsal day I was a bit stressed out but once I handed over all the required materials to Laura (seating chart, meal choices, table cards, song choices, etc.) I felt like all was in good hands and it was all about having fun and enjoying our wedding. Our wedding was incredible our guests had an amazing time and it will be talked about amongst our friends and family for years to come. Villa de Amore will always be a very special place for us as it holds one of our most favorite memories.

    When I think back on the day of my wedding the one word that comes to my mind first is PERFECT. I couldn't have dreamed of a more perfect day and the wonderful staff at Villa de Amore made it happen. The owner, Eileen, and her children, Aimee and David, run the business and they are so wonderful to work with. They went ABOVE & BEYOND my expectations to make sure that everything was exactly how I wanted it to be. The food was delicious and the late night snacks were a big hit with our guests! The wedding coordinator, Laura, is absolutely amazing and made the day seamless. From bringing us snacks and beverages in the bridal suite to fixing my broken bustle (probably 3 times) to bringing me drinks on the dance floor, she was there whenever I needed anything and made a huge impact on our day. The designer, Monique, did a beautiful job with all of the decorations and really made my vision a reality. They have a whole container full of antique furniture, vases, crystals, chandeliers, frames and really anything you could dream of. Anything I wanted or needed, they figured out a way to make happen and made the process so easy that I want to do it all over again :)

    The venue itself is amazingly beautiful and so well laid out. Our parents received multiple hand written thank-you notes from our guests while we were away on our honeymoon thanking them for being invited as it was "the best wedding ever!" I would HIGHLY recommend Villa de Amore to everyone!!

    WOW, that sums it up. Perfection down to the littlest detail. First of all the venue is gorgeous, food is delicious (we had every guest compliment the food), friendliest staff and the only venue we found that has everything we could ever need. We are new parents and I must say that planning a wedding with a newborn is insanity. Thank God to this venue they made it all possible and made planning for us a piece of cake. I already have recommended this venue to my friends and family. All the vendors they have was awesome. Special thanks to their DJ, Studio at Villa photographer, catering (superb) and the pastor Mark Lohman who was beyond excellent. Thank you to all the staff that made it all happen, we had our dream wedding because of all of you...

    My fiancee and I are getting married here in April and every aspect of this place is amazing. They are with you for every step of the way and have a crazy amount of decor that you can choose from to personlize the place. The staff is fantastic and very easy to get ahold of and all vendors that they work with are the same way. We've already done our food and cake tasting and everything was SO SO good, it was extremley hard to choose because of that. We cannot wait to get married here because we know the experience is going to be even better than the process of planning it has been!
    Update: Our wedding was amazing, I could not have asked for a better day and they went above and beyond to make everything perfect and it was. Our guests are still telling us how it was the best wedding the have ever been to, from the decor to the friendiness of the staff, to the awesome food, that everyone said was not like any food they've ever had at a wedding (because it's delicious!)

    Villa provides an all exclusive wedding which no where else my wife and I visited could come close to offering. We had looked at 5 different winery's before Villa and really had our mind set before even showing up to Villa, but once we stepped on the property we knew Villa stole our hearts. After the weddig my wife and I were talking and there wasn't one thing we would change from that day. We talked about every aspect of the wedding and we wouldn't change a thing, not to mention nothing went wrong and it was so smooth and you could tell Villa's staff handles weddings on the regular basis. I was one of those guys going into it thinking the money would be wasted and we could have used it to buy a house, but once the wedding was over I would have paid double what we did for that same day/experience over again. It was indescribable the love we felt throughout that day and everyone who attended couldn't stop saying how beautiful the venue was and how much fun they had. Villas staff takes care of business and I recommend them for any budget and to anyone who wants zero stress on their wedding day.

    This Venue is a MUST!!!!! If you are looking for the WHOLE package - LOOK! NO! FURTHER! We could not have had a better experience! From day one everyone was so helpful and oh so amazing with every aspect of our Wedding! It was such an amazing experience! Our wedding was truly a Fairy tale, something straight out of a story book!!! We could not have had done it without the amazing people at the Villa - Eileen, David, Aimee, Monique and Laura. Our Guests are still talking about how Breathtaking the Venue is, how delicious the Food was, and the service was out of this world!! One of the Best weddings they have ever been to!

    We truly do feel like we are now part of this amazing family (The Villa). As a Bride and a control freak - I felt so confident and at ease that my day was in such great hands. Laura was my coordinator and everything went just so perfectly! I couldn't have had done it better myself. Monique - my designer set every little thing that I had requested and wanted for our wedding with such grace and thought, that everyone thought I had done it all.

    This was the First Venue we looked at, and after just looking at one more Venue, we were back with our Deposit check. Another great thing about the Villa is, that you can bring in your own alcohol! That's right!!! It will not cost you an arm and a leg to have a premium OPEN BAR! If that doesn't make you want to get married here...I don't what would!

    I can just go on and on about how FABULOUS our wedding was...but I think you should experience it all at Villa de Amore yourselves!

    Villa de Amore is absolutely amazing! From the many different beautiful views down to the staff, my wife and I were very content and couldn't be any happier. Laura our wedding coordinator was very excellent and had everything under control, she definitely loves her job. If something needed a little touch up or something was missing, she was able to fix it within minutes. The whole wedding was SPECTACULAR thanks to the professionalism, organization, and much much more. words CANT even describe how happy we were as well as our guest.

    I cannot even begin to describe how incredible our wedding was. First, this venue is absolutely breathtaking. My husband and I looked at a few wineries in the Temecula area and none came close to the natural beauty, layout, and architecture at Villa de Amore. A huge plus for us was that you get the entire venue to yourself for your wedding. This meant that our guests could enjoy every part of the venue without having to worry about letting strangers in/out and we didn't have to feel like zoo animals during our ceremony. The venue alone will sell you on this place - you have to visit.

    But apart from the venue, the service of this place is seriously unmatched. Any questions, concerns, last minute thoughts/changes we had were responded to and accommodated with such grace and professionalism. It's really a one-stop shop in that your day-of coordinator, decor specialist, and caterer are all working at the same place. This saves so much time and headache in having to communicate with three different vendors on the same issue. On top of that, they offer the "all-inclusive" package. This seemed a little bit strange to me at first because I was worried that it meant corners would be cut. Let me assure you that the opposite is true. They contract with the BEST florist, the BEST photographers, the BEST DJ, and their catering is terrific. We offered our guests the option between the Pork or the Steak entree and both were a hit. The portions are generous, the seasoning is perfect, and all of the ingredients were impressively fresh.

    Really, you won't find a better venue.

    Villa De Amore completely exceeded all of our expectations! They made the stressful process of planning a wedding seem like a breeze. They literally take care of everything and are so well organized and know what they are doing. It was hard for me to give up control, but I'm glad I did because they went above and beyond anything I could have pictured. Compared to all the other venues in wine country, this place was a no-brainer for us. It is all inclusive so you don't have to manage/coordinate several vendors and everyone is so professional and talented. You are not settling by any means to do this all inclusive, the florist is incredible and will completely capture your vision. We chose Melissa for our photographer and she was AMAZING! She has the eye for capturing the special moments and it doesn't seem staged at all when she suggests poses. Now for one of the most important factors, the food. Our biggest pet peeve is when the food is a disappointment at a wedding. You spend all the money and you expect the food to be delicious and at least served warm, but that isn't always the case. Not here! We had our tasting and got to try several different dishes and couldn't decide because everything tasted to good! The day of the wedding did not disappoint! The food was served fast, was hot and was absolutely delicious!! Everyone was talking about it! They even do a snack (street tacos or sliders) later in the evening for guests to enjoy. Honestly, there is no competition for this place. There are so many different places on the property to take pictures and you have it all to your self, you don't have to share the venue with anyone else on your big day. The owner, Eileen, is so sweet and you can tell she puts her heart and soul into this place. I would recommend this to any bride that is on a budget, is working and has limited time, or anyone that wants a beautiful scenery and professional staff and a day to remember that all your guests will be talking about.

    I could not have asked for a better, more helpful, beautiful, and all inclusive place to get married then the VIlla de Amore!

    My husband and I are dual military, and covering every little detail was very hard and time-inclusive. They were so accomidating with our EVERY need, and stupid question, and they made this the most unpainful process! I loved getting all the help and all the details that their staff bring and we are so thankful for everything they did for us!

    our wedding day was so great!

    Love love loved Villa de Amore. First off, it's a family business and they really treat you like you're part of their family. Leading up to my big day, I've called, emailed, and even showed up in person with questions/concerns and each time they were very responsive and provided me great customer service.

    The venue itself is just spectacular with amazing views of grapevines surrounding the entire property. All the detail really give it the first class quality that I loved. And my favorite part about Villa de Amore is that you get the entire property to yourself! There is no strangers crashing your wedding, or your guests wandering into other people's events.

    Another great thing about Villa de Amore is that it's sort of a one-stop-shop. They provide all inclusive packages that includes most vendors that you'll need. I chose to use my own photographer and wanted a videographer as well as a photo booth, so I had to coordinate those myself. But all others were minimal coordination on my part (you do have to meet with those vendors to tell them what you want but you don't have to worry about paying them separately). The unique thing about this venue is that you have to purchase your own booze (they provide the bartenders but you have to stock their bar), but the little bit of hassle that it adds to your pre-wedding-to-do-list was outweighed by the huge cost savings. I just went to Costco and purchased a little over $1,000 worth of booze and that was way more than enough for 100 guests ($400 was suggested but we wanted top-shelf and we kind of got crazy with wanting to provide a wide selection). Had Villa de Amore required us to purchase the booze through them (like most other venues), our bill would have easily been $4,000 and up (based on the top-shelf open bar that we did).

    The cost is a bit pricey but the level of service and quality that you receive for it is worth every penny.

    The staff at Villa de Amore was wonderful throughout the whole year long planning process. They were very helpful and responsive to all my emails. The coordinator Laura was so great on the day and made the event go so smoothly. We couldn't have asked for a better venue. The site was just beautiful and I love how all the vendors work so well together since they're familiar with the venue.

    BEST VENUE EVER! If you want to have the most romantic, beautiful wedding ever... then you need to check out this venue. I fell in love at first sight. All my guest's said it was the best and most beautiful wedding they've ever been to. SO thank you Villa for the amazing experience. Their staff is so on point and hard working. Laura is an amazing coordinator! She did such a great job and always made sure we knew what was next and that we had a drink or food or anything we needed. Monique did a fantastic job decorating all the different set ups, I couldn't even believe how beautiful it was! I also made last minute changes with Aimee in regards to the centerpieces because the ones I chose, weren't working with the family style tables and she was so accommodating and understanding and made it beautiful!! THANK YOU EVERYONE!

    Villa de Amore is one of the most magical venues in Southern California!! My guests felt like they were transported to a little Tuscan villa. Every single person at my wedding commented on how spectacular each aspect of the venue was. The entire staff is so helpful, friendly and accommodating. The all inclusive package gives you such an organized and simplified planning experience. What surprised me, however, was the level of talent you receive with their florist and caterer! The food was delicious! The flowers were beyond gorgeous! They went out of their way to make sure we had exactly our vision. The vendors and staff at Villa de Amore treat you like family. I highly recommend booking your wedding at the enchanting Villa de Amore!!

    The Villa did the most amazing job. It turned out to be the best day of my life thus far! But of course you're kind of expecting that. We missed our own rehearsal because we forgot to get our marriage license earlier in the week. We are from Iowa so it was a little nerve wrecking not knowing exactly what the villa looked like but it ended up being just perfect! We got to choose specific details a few days before and everyone was eager to meet with us. They were flexible with planning and always got back to me. I had a TON of questions and they always made me feel important and like my opinion mattered. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Mark Lohman was our officiant and he was awesome! The planner Laura definitely knew what she was doing and helped calm my nerves. Amazing staff and beautiful grounds!

    This venue is absolutely beautiful! You get the gorgeous vineyard scenery you would with a winery but with more privacy and an intimate feel. All inclusive package was definitely worth it. Our wedding was exactly what we wanted and hassle free, both during planning and the day of. Everything ran like clockwork during our wedding day. The staff was amazingly professional and attentive. The food was great. DJ Ross and especially his photobooth were great. His wife manned the booth and helped with pictures and made us a cute album with all the photobooth printouts. All the vendors were amazing and in the end they all worked together wonderfully. We can't say enough good things about this place!! Thank you to Eileen and David and the rest of the staff at Villa de Amore for everything!!

    My husband and I were married here on October 26, 2014, and we both felt it was the wedding of our dreams! The venue was incredible, and the day was absolutely perfect. For months leading up to the wedding, the staff (especially Eileen and David) were very responsive and attended to our questions and concerns with patience. We visited the venue a few times before the big day, and each time we were blown away by how gorgeous it looked in all seasons. The staff at the Villa does a terrific job of checking in and keeping you on task - they give you a timeline that allows more than enough time for things like guest responses, seating arrangements and menu choices. Many of my friends who've gotten married at hotels were usually working on seating arrangements the days before their weddings, but we finished our over a month before and literally had nothing to do the weeks before the wedding. The best part about the venue is its privacy - the day of my wedding, I didn't want random onlookers or hotel guests crashing my reception/cocktail hour. At the Villa, the only people present were venue staff and our wedding guests, and it was great to be able to steal away to certain spots throughout the night and have some alone time with my new husband! We also recently received our wedding photos and they are gorgeous - the venue in October is extremely lush and vivid, and our photos looked like they were out of an Anthropologie ad (the Villa provides great photo props and sets that really enhance photos, and they're all FREE). I really could go on and on about how great this venue is, but you should check it out for yourself! I've already recommended the venue to my recently engaged friends, and many of our wedding guests have done the same after attending our wedding. Even months later, we are still receiving rave reviews!

    Loved, loved, and loved the Villa. They are so professional, accommodating, and responsible. My husband and I are so happy we found this place. It's all inclusive, they provide catering, flowers, photography, Dj, cake, and officiant. If you want a stress free wedding planning experience you should pick the villa. All their vendors are professional and contact you as soon as you email them. My husband and I couldn't have asked for a better place to get married.

    Everything I expected and more. Beautiful location, helpful staff. Coming from a background with working bit events it was nice to sit back and enjoy the day. I had nothing to worry about and Laura did a great job when little things came up. I am recommending them to everyone I know that is getting married

    So happy with how the photos turned out. It was a wonderful way to start our life together!

    My husband and I got married at Villa De Amore September 19th 2014. We booked the venue about a year in advance and was not able to get the date we wanted (we wanted October 3rd). So we settled for September 19th. If you are interested in this venue book your wedding day asap. Especially if you want to get married on a Saturday.

    I feel like we got a lot of bang for our buck getting married at Villa De Amore. The venue is all inclusive. It includes the venue, the minister, the cake, the florist, the photographer, the dj, the caterer and bartenders. The staff and all of the vendors were very friendly and easy to work with. All of the vendors work was excellent. Our guests raved about how delicious the food was and how gorgeous the scenery was (you are surrounded by vineyards). A ton of money was saved by going to Costco and Bevmo to buy alcohol, rather than the bar packages that most of these wedding venues offer.

    Our wedding day was flawless. Laura, the wedding day coordinator made sure of that. Everything was perfect! I definitely recommend this place to everybody.

    I knew i wanted to get married in Temecula and had scheduled 4 appointments to different venues/wineries. Villa de Amore was the 1st stop of the 4 appointments. I would compare all other venues to the Villa bc there is no comparison. The Villa is a true gem to have my wedding. There is no other wedding venue that has the expertise, top notch service, flexibility than the staff at the Villa de Amore. Since the day I first visited I was greeted with warmth, love, and excitement. This is a well oiled machine that provides a one of a kind experience to each person. I never stressed out during the day of my wedding because I knew the Villa was well coordinated with all of the vendors, the fluidity of the day was smooth, and caring. I highly recommend this place for weddings. I would love to attend a wedding here for others!!

    Prior to visiting Villa de Amore, my fiance (at the time) and I looked at over 40 venues from Santa Barbara to Temecula and we were not satisfied with anything we saw. From the moment we walked up to Villa de Amore, we felt like family. We were blown away by the beauty of the grounds, I was in tears...this was the place I was going to get married. One of the best parts for me was what was included in the price, Photographer, Caterer, DJ, Florist, Minister, Cake, Bartenders, and we could bring in our own Alcohol! I am sure I am missing something, but it was all part of the package..I didn't have to go searching for the vendors, which was helping as I was finishing up my last year of grad school! This made the planning process so easy. They also have a list of recommended vendors for makeup, photobooths, ect.... which was super helpful. Every crazy email I sent with millions of questions was answered right away. The entire staff was so warm and helpful. My favorite part of planning was the design day where I got to go throught this huge shed of decorations and point out what I liked. All these added little details made for a beautiful wedding! The day of the wedding was perfect and I would not change a thing. My guest loved everything and said it was the most beautiful wedding they had ever been to. I would not change a thing about my wedding and would do it over again in a heartbeat. To everyone at Villa de Amore, THANK YOU, you made our wedding out-of-this-world AMAZING!!! Love- Lance & Jennifer Williams 9/6/14

    The staff is amazing here! They all genuinely care about you and the service that they provide. I had the pleasure of working with Laura as our coordinator. She was so easy to work with and made the wedding day flow completely stress free. Throughout the whole planning process David was amazing and responded to emails/questions within the same day.
    This venue is all inclusive so they have vendors available for you to choose from. It honestly saved a lot of time and stress searching for vendors.
    The venue is itself is breathtaking and I would defiantly recommend it to all future brides.
    A thank you to all the Villa staff for making our day magical and memorable!

    My husband and I truly cannot say enough about this beautiful venue and amazing staff! We booked our wedding in February 2013 for our June 2014 wedding, and every step along the way was absolutely flawless. From Villa’s all-inclusive wedding package (which includes the most wonderful vendors) & their absolutely amazing, helpful and sweet staff (especially Eileen & David, who we worked with most & were always available to chat and answer questions), our planning process was honestly so much smoother than we could have imagined. On our wedding day, Laura was no exception. I can’t say how many times my husband and I previously heard, “something is bound to go wrong on your wedding day, but one day you’ll laugh about it…” As such, we felt that much more blessed with the fact that Laura made the entire day PERFECT. She literally took care of everything, from ensuring that my husband and I got a chance to eat, to transitioning our guests from the ceremony to reception to cake cutting to keeping us posted on time (which goes by very, very fast!). Since that day, the Villa staff has graciously invited us back to visit whenever we are in town – a gesture so small, but means so much. Not to mention – have you seen this place?!?!?! It is GORGEOUS. We totally recommend the vineyard view for the ceremony, and prefer Villa so much more than a winery since it is a private estate, you can provide your own alcohol [hello 5 cent wine sale] and obviously everything else I mentioned above. Villa de Amore truly holds a special place in our hearts for making our wedding planning process so smooth & flawless. We recommend this place 110% for anyone who is looking for a beautiful, perfect wedding in Temecula.

    I am so blown away by not only this breath taking venue, but how amazing and helpful the owner and her staff have been through this processes. I have heard of horror stories from friends that were previously married and how difficult there wedding venue made there experience. But Eileen and David have by far made this process so amazing and stress free for the both of us.

    My finacee and i are getting married at Villa de Amore in November, and we are both so excited!!

    My husband and I got married 2 weeks ago on 5/10/214 and I have to say that it was absolutely amazing!!

    I've been thinking of how I was going to write this review because I wanted to cover everything.
    We found Villa online last March and went out for a visit based on the reviews and we signed the contract on the same day! After meeting the staff we were immediately impressed! We in fact signed the contract that day!!!

    Here are some points that I want to highlight
    1. Communication was great during planned. They answered all my silly questions that I emailed really fast. They also sent very timely emails regarding property updates and payment information
    2. The contract is very clear and they are very upfront about everything
    3. The property: there aren't words to describe how amazing the venue is.
    4. Design day was flawless. I brought probably 30 questions to ask and Laura answered them ALL before I could ask
    5. Wedding Day - truly amazing. They have a well oiled machine and then are totally on point! Every single guest knew where to be an when and they also made sure all details were attended to. I still to this day have people tell me it is the best wedding they've been to because it was just totally thought out and everything was seamless!

    All in all I can say that as a Bride there is a lot to take on for a wedding.. and Villa de Amore and their staff takes a huge amount of stress off! The property is everything you could hope for and more!

    From the moment we stepped on the property, my fiancé and I knew this was going to be our wedding venue. Eileen was so kind and welcoming during our site tour and you can see the pride she takes in continuing to make this venue better and better. The staff was so amazing throughout the planning process, that they began to feel like family.

    During our rehearsal, we had a pretty serious medical emergency happen with my fiancé. Laura and Eileen made sure an ambulance was called right away and handled the situation like pros. They were so great in keeping everyone calm and preventing me from having a nervous breakdown. I wasn't sure if we were going to be able to have our wedding the next day, so they made sure all the vendors were updated and aware of the situation.

    Thankfully we were still able to have our dream wedding the next day, and it turned out even more beautiful than I could have imagined. Every single one of my guests commented on how gorgeous the venue was. I can't begin to thank them enough for everything they did for us. I would highly recommend this venue!!! It is a million times more amazing and private than any of the wineries in the area and you will definitely get your money's worth!!

    My husband and I kept saying we wish we were guests at our own wedding at the Villa! The day was absolutely amazing; the team at the Villa is so professional and coordination there was superb. I was nervous having the venue far away during the planning phases, but the day/night came out more beautiful than I could have imagined. The guests raved about how beautiful the venue was and even specifically were impressed with the coordination and efficiency of the staff. Laura the coordinator was such a sweet person to work with; she made sure we had everything and was not pushy at all. David responded to all my emails during the planning phases timely which I appreciated. The Villa added a new fountain recently which is beautiful and adds an extra wow factor to the venue. All the vendors were absolutely amazing as well. Renee the caterer, Marcella the photographer and Jennifer/Sheila the florists and table design...they were all such a pleasure to work with and they all helped me create my vision for the wedding. I hope to be invited to a wedding here in the future!! Thank you for the beautiful memories!

    We LOVE Villa de Amore and are so grateful we were able to get married there! It's everything we wanted our wedding venue to be ~ romantic, elegant, private, and magical. The grounds are perfectly maintained and stunning. The sunsets at the Villa are heavenly. We loved the fact that we got the Villa to ourselves our entire wedding day and that they have their own vendors included in an all inclusive package. It made planning a wedding so much easier and less stressful knowing that all of the vendors are familiar with the property and its owners. David and Eileen are outstanding! They always responded promptly to our emails and phone messages throughout the planning process. All of the Villa's vendors were easy to work with and very accomodating. THANK YOU Villa de Amore for making our fairy tale wedding posssible!

    This location is in the heart of Temecula wine country. We chose this venue to have a vineyard feel without the public able to access our wedding day. The staff there was quick to act on my wife and I's requests and everything moved along flawlessly. We absolutely enjoyed every second of our time there.

    Villa de Amore and its staff is more than just a typical venue for your wedding day. At Villa de Amore they treat you like family. They make sure that your wedding day is as stress-free as they can possibly make it. They never pressure you to make one choice or another. They simply ask you what it is that you want to do. There were a few issues the day of my wedding, which consisted of the best man forgetting his pants, a family member running late that I chose to read a poem during the ceremony, The flower girl ripping the ring bearers flower off, me getting my husband’s boutonniere color on my dress while taking a picture, and more, even some that I didn't know about until it was all over. Even with those few issues, Amiee and Eileen made sure that I was calm and assured me they had everything under control. Not once did I feel stressed out because whatever decision I made they were fine with. They never told me no or that they could not do that. Not only do they treat you, the bride, like family, but even the rest of my family and my husband’s family told me that they felt like Aimee and Eileen were family. They went above and beyond what I feel their job called for, and that’s what made me feel stress-free and showed me that they genuinely cared about me and my wedding day. There are not enough words to express how grateful I am to have had Aimee and Eileen by my side taking care of any and every issue that arose that day. I am so glad and thankful that I chose this venue and got to work with all the amazing staff members of Villa de Amore.

    I could not ever possibly give this venue or the amazing people that work there and with them, anything less than five stars. Everything was absolutely amazing from the moment my husband and I stepped foot on the property to take our tour. I am much of a procrastinator unfortunately, and the villa helped me in any and every way possible that I could imagine without any hesitation or rudeness all the way to the very last minute of the night. My necklace broke while we were taking pictures in the vineyard and they took the necklace and did everything they could to fix it, which I thought was beyond repair, before we even went back out to be introduced as bride and groom. It's little things like that, as well as the major things obviously, that made this venue special. My husband and I still talk about the wedding as well as still hear about it from guests numerous guests. It was the most amazing/beautiful day and venue, I wouldn't have done it any other way. Thanks so much, Dave and the Villa family.

    Drive up the palm and rose lined private drive on Calle Cabernet in Temecula to arrive in paradise. Villa de Amore is the ultimate location for a dream wedding. Located at the top of a hill with 365 degree views of vineyards, Villa de Amore offers privacy, elegance, and photo ops. After interviewing several local wineries as locations for my daughter’s wedding, Villa de Amore was the winner. This family-run business cares about making the Big Day a special occasion. Every step of the process from booking the venue to the final goodbye was easy, hassle-free, and tranquil. Only one celebration is executed daily between the hours of 2-10pm offering every client full run of the property with the utmost in luxury and service. The grounds are breathtakingly beautiful, with elegant garden rooms, vineyard views, waterfalls, ponds, paths, twinkling lights, and arbors exude romance. Not much other decorating is necessary. Villa de Amore is a one-stop shop. With choices in vendors, everything is included except the alcohol. At most winery venues, the client is required to buy and serve only that particular winery’s offerings. At Villa de Amore, we were able to bring in whatever we wished. The bartenders were professional, and each vendor was stupendous. Our remarkable team included catering by Renee Bitoni, Desserts by Elegance on Display, DJ John Brigante of Divine Entertainment, and Photography by Leah Marie. Villa de Amore is designed with celebrations in mind. Ceremonies may held in a variety of outdoor spaces and the ballroom is large enough to accommodate 170 dining guests in case of inclement weather. They handle the clean-up and by the time the evening had ended, our things were packed and waiting at the front entrance, ready to be loaded into our vehicles. One short stroll through the grounds to make sure that everything was accounted for, and the fabulous day was sadly complete.
    With gratitude to everyone at Villa de Amore. Perfect!

    We were married at the Villa on Oct 4th. From the first day we saw the venue David made us feel comfortable and at ease with all the planning. David was also there on our big day and made the day run super smooth. There was minor issues throughout the day that came up but we never felt stressed and some things we never even knew about until it was over because David handled everything so smoothly. Leah Marie Photography, Soirée Designs, Bitonni Catering, Elegance on Display, and Aaron the DJ were all top notch!!! All our guest were blown away by the beauty of the venue and the quote of the day was "This was the best wedding ever!!!" We would highly recommend this venue to anyone looking to work with professional wedding vendors and coordinators at a gorgeous venue in the beautiful Temecula Wine Country. Trust us you won't be disappointed.

    I can honestly say that my wedding day was stress-free and was perfect thanks to everyone at the Villa. I tried to find something that went wrong, but I could not. All the staff was so knowledgeable, helpful and kind. They went above and beyond what I expected and I was extremely pleased with their services. They were on top on the schedule and day of events and I would do it all over again by how simple they made it on me. Weddings are what they do and they do them very well. Even my family and friends were so pleased with everyone and the BEAUTIFUL facility. It was a gorgeous and perfect day. Thank you for making my day such a success and a memorable experience!!!

    I absolutely loved this venue from the moment I went to look at it the first time. My fiance and I had already been to 4 or 5 wineries in the area and almost didn't look at the Villa, but decided to go check it out. When we pulled up, Eileen, the owner was in the garden hoeing her plants and I immediately knew I was going to like her. She is very sweet and down to earth. I live about 8 hrs away and really liked the idea of already having vendors picked for me so I didn't have to worry about looking for them. All the vendors are very responsive and communicate well via e-mail. The other wineries we looked at only give you four hours for the wedding and reception, which I don't think is a lot of time at all so the 8 hours the villa gives you is great! We also liked that you could buy your own alcohol as it works out to be a lot cheaper than the other venues. On our wedding day nothing went wrong and everything moved extremely seamlessly. The Villa does so many weddings they have them down to a science and keep your day moving along. I did not have to worry about a single thing and Eileen would come check on me to see if I needed anything. The whole crew were very professional and accommodating and I loved my day. Towards the end of the reception the villa cooks an extra snack -tacos, sliders etc. and many of my guests said this was money due to the amount of alcohol they had consumed. I had so many compliments from my guests about how beautiful the villa is and how great it was to have cocktails before the wedding! The day after the wedding my new husband realized he had left his sunglasses there and called Eileen who found them the next day and they were mailed to us.
