Amylee M. Sent on 05/28/2023Amazing 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. -

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! -

Jody M. Sent on 05/28/2023Amazing 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! -

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!!

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. -

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. -

Hailey M. Sent on 02/22/2023Breathtaking 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. -

Elisha M. Sent on 02/06/2023Loved 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! -

Daniel B. Sent on 09/27/2020Sept 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

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 :) -

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! -

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. -
