    My wedding was perfect thanks to the Vineyards

    The owners James and Sorror as well as all of the staff, including Dina and Juan, were absolutely amazing. They had everything covered, were there for me every step up of the way, usually before I even knew I needed something, and were both professional and considerate. The venue itself is breathtaking. It's only been 3 days and I'm already wondering what reason I can find to go back. Choose the Vineyards and you won't regret a thing!

    The Vineyards's reply:

    Thank you for your review; we appreciate you choosing us to host your day and enjoyed planning it with you and your family. We'd love to have you back again and again!

    Epic Wedding of a Lifetime!

    Mystical Bubbles, Glittery New Orleans Elegance, and Otherworldly Magical Love!
    Sounds Fantastical doesn’t it?! Too surreal and unattainable for a December Wedding in The Greater Los Angeles Area. Then it looks like you haven’t been to The Vineyard’s in Simi Valley yet have you? :)
    At the start wedding planning is a maze of unknown desires and avenues to explore. Especially if you have never planned a magnificent affair before. There is a hope, a shot in the dark perhaps that a logical wedding plan will somehow manifest and that you’ll receive all of the excellent guidance you’ll need.
    We chose to go to the Book. How to plan a wedding for dummies. Educated and semi confident we put our scoping things out skills to the test! The Wedding venue options in Los Angeles and surrounding cities are endless. Or are they?
    For us there was only one possible venue authentic to our vision. A venue that ultimately exceeded all our expectations and treated us like gold. A venue with outstanding professionalism, magic touches, and a flair for solving any obstacle unique to our wedding vision.
    That Venue is The Vineyards in Simi Valley, CA.
    The first sign of excellence begins at The Vineyards gorgeous entrance. Greeted by the owners Shadi and Soroor you quickly feel that this is where genuine kindness and love reside. Where what you do as a profession collides with what you love at every moment of the day. Immediately at ease you take a seat and all your wedding questions are answered. Shadi and Soroor even cover questions you hadn’t thought of…questions you truly needed to ask! At every meeting no matter how busy Shadi and Soroor are they will stay with you as long as it takes to make sure everything you have your heart set on is covered.
    A tour of the impeccable Vineyards brings happiness and excitement! Attention to detail and good vibes radiate from every corner.
    The Vineyards offers several extraordinary breathtakingly romantic options for your ceremony. If you choose an outdoor ceremony your backdrop is a graceful seemingly timeless mountain range. The sensational sun loves to peek through often casting beautiful glowing rays at just the right moments...elevating your stunning wedding backdrop to the next level.
    We chose the mystical water wall for our ceremony. It was important to us to have the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception at one venue for the comfort of our guests. The Vineyard’s is truly a one stop phenomena. Offering all of this and more.
    The Vineyard’s cocktail room is a dreamy elegant space that you’ll want to spend your entire day and night in. From soothing water trickling down the sparkly windows to the glittering candles, twinkle lights and unique cozy chairs. Every comfort and charm is thought of. The bartender’s and servers are gracious exceptional professionals. I love how our guests never waited long for specialty cocktails that they are still raving about.
    My fiancé and I gravitated toward a theme of New Orleans Elegance with small hints of gothic Anne Rice flair. We will always be in awe of Shadi and Soroor and how they perfectly manifested our vision. The Vineyards meticulously followed all our instructions and wishes. They added gorgeous grand elements we hadn’t thought of and turned our reception into a glittering New Orleans Jamboree!!
    One must not forget the delectable food The Vineyards offers. What a feast of scrumptious options for everyone! We wanted a wedding dinner that was savory and divine. We added specialty dishes for our guests and when the chef added his genius cooking expertise the result was off the charts delicious! We went home from The Vineyards tasting wanting to order every single item from the appetizers to the main dishes!
    The Vineyards offers wedding packages that are affordable and extremely easy to navigate. Any questions or hesitations are always addressed with kindness and clear instruction. All of my emails to The Vineyards included the phrase “thank you many times over for making my stress level go way, way down!”
    I love how The Vineyard’s offers an exquisite bridal dressing room. Any bride that has been dreaming about her wedding day will find this room as just beyond perfection. The groomsman dressing room is equally spacious and superb.
    Our guests still rave about how seamless and magical our wedding was. This was truly a wedding mission for us. To have our guests walk into The Vineyards...experiencing our vision from beginning to end. We wanted our guests to be completely comfortable at all times. It was extremely important for our elderly guests to be able to move and enjoy the celebrations with ease. As you can guess thanks to The Vineyards we had all of that in spades.
    To make a wedding with so many moving parts appear seamless takes a dedicated team. My fiancé and I were the main event but the team at the Vineyard’s really are always the silent stars. The Vineyard's behind the scenes coordination is flawless. Communication is clear and the event flow is incredible. Every single staff member was pleasant and professional and is an absolute testament that the same staff have been at the Vineyards for years. The stellar behind the scenes team made our wedding legendary!
    On a special note I wanted to express my gratitude for Shadi's immense talent and authentic care. Shadi has an innate knack at problem solving anything on the spot! My wedding dress had a French bustle that was no easy feat to tie up. Shadi completed the task perfectly in record time!
    The Vineyards gave us the most epic Wedding of a lifetime. Thank you just doesn’t seem to be enough. We decided to give this review from the heart expressing our immense gratitude and love for The Vineyards.
    I can confidently say that you also can walk through The Vineyards beautiful doors and have all of your wedding wishes realized. There’s a cliche phrase found everywhere that says dare to dream. I’ll use it anyway because you can dare to dream...The Vineyard’s will make it happen. Married 12/03/2023

    The Vineyards's reply:

    Thank you so much Heather for such a thoughtful review of The Vineyards! It was truly an absolute pleasure being a part of you and Erik's special day! It was so fun planning out all the details with you and seeing your vision come to life! Thank you for entrusting us with such a special day and for allowing us to be witness to the love shared that day. It was certainly a wedding we will never forget! We are so honored to be where your journey as husband and wife began!!

    Stunning venue & amazing staff

    The Vineyards staff is absolutely top notch! They think of EVERYTHING and make wedding planning so easy. My husband and I had the honor of working with Shadi, Soroor, Jimmy & Deana and we were absolutely blown away by their professionalism, hospitality and customer service. I will forever recommend the Vineyards to everyone! Additionally, the entire staff from the Vineyards is so kind and helpful - from the bartenders to the wait staff, you seriously can’t go wrong with having your event here. The food and drinks are impeccable and I hope someone I know has an event here soon because we already miss it! Thank you all for such an unforgettable wedding and wedding planning experience! - The Muñoz

    The Vineyards's reply:

    Gosh! Thank you for your wonderful review of The Vineayrds! We are so happy that you had an amazing experience - we live to to hear those words of joy and are happy that you are part of The Vineyards' family. Thank you for choosing us!

    The Most Amazing Experience

    The first moment I was at the location really just made me feel that it was my wedding venue and would mesh seamlessly with my theme. The family and staff were wonderful and I will forever be grateful for their amazing dedication for making our wedding better than I imagined it to be. For being so flexible and almost always having goodies for us to snack on while we spoke in person about each detail.

    The Vineyards's reply:

    Thank you for your kind words and review! We loved hosting your wedding here at The Vineyards! We enjoyed your event as much as you and family did; everything was planned so well and we loved helping to make your dream come true!

    Amazing Venue

    From the day we discovered this wonderful venue we knew that our wish for a beautiful wedding would come true. The family that owns this business (Shadi, Saru and Jim) are experts in the wedding planning process. Our wedding at the Vineyards was so easy because they have vendors for everything you need. The photographer, DJ, cake and flowers went above and beyond to make our vision a reality - they were all incredible! The food is comparable to any fine dining restaurant and the servers made sure that all our guests were well taken care of. We cannot thank them enough and highly recommend them. It honestly felt like they were family because they put their hearts into what they do.

    The Vineyards's reply:

    Thank you for your review! We appreciate you and appreciate your kind words. We hope to be of service again soon.

    Outstanding venue


    We are BEYOND grateful that you all orchestrated the best day of our lives. From the moment we came to check out The Vineyards we both fell in love. Not only with the breathtaking venue, but with you all. We did not feel like we were just another couple, you remembered details about us, and we truly felt special.

    Our wedding day was the most magical day. From beginning to end it was spectacular. Our guests have been raving about it from the venue, staff, drinks and food. We have always felt so comfortable entrusting you with this big important day. It is an extremely intimate day, and we were so happy to have you all conducting it. From the vendors (hand selected by you all) to the staff, everyone marched to the same beat. We felt incredibly lucky to be able to get married there. I recall going to the delicious food tasting and crying as we pulled through the gates, just so happy to get married there.

    The vendors-DJ’s Jason and Juan, bloom wildly florals, Porto’s, and photographer James-absolutely outstanding. Beyond any expectations I held. I’m not from Ventura County and I’ve never planned a wedding before (lol) so to have the vendor package as an option, saved lots of headaches I’m sure. For each person/vendor we chose from the options provided, I did the same selection process for when we chose the venue, I went off of how each person I contacted made me feel. Everyone was amazing from start to finish.

    With all of our love and gratitude,

    Traci & Alex

    A dreamy, hidden-gem of a venue!

    The Vineyards was hands down the best decision we made for our wedding day! The entire team (Shadi, Jimmy, Soroor, Deena) was helpful from the moment we toured the Vineyards to the moment we left on our wedding day. The venue is beautiful, lush, and meticulously decorated. We chose to have our ceremony at the garden site and our reception in the ballroom. Our guests loved the venue layout and kept raving about the food. We had a very specific music-themed wedding, where we wanted to incorporate little touches of our story, and the venue and team were able to help us execute our vision seamlessly! They were very accommodating when we wanted to enter the venue early for hair and makeup and helped us with our timeline, which made everything on the day-of go smoothly. If we had to do our big day again, we would 100% choose the Vineyards every time! We cannot recommend them enough. Thank you to the entire team, we are eternally grateful for your support.

    The Vineyards's reply:

    Thank you so much for your amamzing review of The Vineayrds. Thank you for joining The Vineyards' family.

    The Best Venue Ever

    My husband and I chose The Vineyards for our wedding and I am so happy that we did. They were so involved and on top of EVERYTHING! They even had people with headsets coordinating around the venue the day of to make sure that everything went off without a hitch and our day of coordinator was constantly checking on everything to make sure it worked out.

    The thing that really got us to choose this place in the beginning was honestly their vendor package. If you include the vendor package with the venue, then you get the photographer, DJ, florist and dessert included in the price! You get to choose which vendors you want from their vendor list, so you have numerous options in each category. It made planning the wedding SO much easier and every vendor that we chose from their list was amazing!

    This venue was by far the best thing we invested in for our wedding and it's very well priced for everything that you get. The food was fantastic, the drinks were great... There wasn't a single thing I could complain about for our wedding day. They truly helped make our wedding the perfect day and got rid of a lot of the stress that most brides complain about. I would highly recommend considering this venue for your wedding.

    The Vineyards's reply:

    Thank you for allowing us to host your wedding at The Vineyards. We enjoyed hosting your wedding and serving you, your guest and family.

    Best Wedding Venue!

    I can't recommend this venue highly enough! Shadi did not hesitate to answer any and all of the many questions I had leading up to the day of the wedding. She was so helpful and took much of the stress out of the wedding planning process. On the day of the wedding the entire staff could not have been more wonderful! The ceremony and reception spaces were beautifully set up, any guests needing assistance were driven around in golf carts, and they made sure we didn't have a single worry. Our guests can't stop raving about the delicious food, picturesque location, and welcoming and friendly staff. Our wedding was perfect thanks to the Vineyards and would give more stars if I could.

    The Vineyards's reply:

    THANK YOU - THANK YOU! We loved planning your wedding with you and enjoyed hosting your wedding here at The Vineyards! We love to keep in touch with you and feel free to stop by to remenisce! We love to see you!

    Look no further!

    I don't even know where to begin on how grateful I am that we booked The Vineyards for our July 8th wedding. We had visited 3 venues, but The Vineyards made us feel like family. Wedding planning can be overwhelming and stressful, but The Vineyards literally made this as easy as possible. BOOK THEIR PACKAGE. Florist: Scarlett the florist understood my vision off of Pinterest pictures and delivered the most beautiful bouquets, centerpieces, and floral arch that was picture PERFECT! We needed extra florals and she worked within my budget to give me what I wanted and more.
    Photographer: Lasaundra Photography-Go on her IG and you will see why we booked her! All their options were great, but she was so easy to get along with and gave us the most beautiful wedding photos! I cannot wait to frame and display them all!
    Coordinator and DJ: Deana and DJ Kryp2nite! OMG I cannot thank these 2 enough and I give them all the credit for such a perfect wedding. I know things go wrong at weddings, but to this day I have NO idea what happened at ours. I also wanted a packed dance floor the entire night because my family LOVES to dance. Kryp2nite kept the music flowing and the dance floor stayed full until 11 pm.

    Shadi, Saroor, Jimmy, WE LOVE YOU GUYS! You all have a stunning hidden gem in Ventura County-a literal wedding oasis. We are so thankful for The Vineyards family. You answered every question, eliminated every concern, and made us feel like family. If you are still reading this, BOOK THIS VENUE. I researched, weighed out costs, and visited other venues, but it’s not even a close comparison. Brides, they will take care of you! You have waited for this moment and The Vineyards has it all. Their package saves you time on researching vendors and they will recommend other vendors you may need. Your guests will love it too! The entire venue is picture worthy, the food was mouth-watering (another big factor for us), the drinks are incredible, and their vendors are the best in the area! Look no further, you will NOT regret this!

    The Vineyards's reply:

    We loved having your wedding at The Vineyards! Thank you for allowing us to be part of your beautiful day.

    Everything was amazing!

    After visiting multiple venues and becoming hopeless, coming across the Vineyards was the blessing we needed. Not only is the venue clean, beautiful, and photogenic from any angle, owners Jimmy and Soroor make every step of the way enjoyable. They’re personable, attentive, and are very down to earth. The whole family is incredible and their kids made our wedding day even more enjoyable by guests as our bartenders. The speedy responsiveness they have to any of your anxiety filled questions made the whole process of wedding planning so much more manageable. If you’re on the fence of any venues, rest assured in that the Vineyards feels like a close family member is helping execute your dream wedding. The food at our wedding was incredible and there are so many tasty options. I can’t wait to celebrate anniversaries at their restaurant to keep the memories going!

    Vino Supremo

    Elegant and well located - all adjectives that make this wedding venue unique. Wonderfully supportive staff that were there for us from when the first vendor showed up at noon to when the lights were turned off at midnight. Our guests were so impressed with everything they saw and experienced.

    Love our Vineyards Family

    The Vineyards was the first venue we toured, and it was love at first sight. We immediately felt at home, and despite visiting many other venues, we always kept coming back to The Vineyards and knew this was where we wanted to celebrate our wedding. The Vineyards is family-owned, and Soroor and Jimmy go above and beyond in making their clients feel welcomed and part of the family. We were a COVID couple that got heavily impacted by multiple postponements and rescheduling. Soroor and Jimmy were incredibly helpful and accommodating, and they remained positive throughout the whole experience. We were lucky to host an intimate dinner reception after our mini ceremony outdoors, and then our big reception a year later indoors. This venue is perfect for any event. It is beautiful, both inside and out. It is unique and has a special charm that you won't find anywhere else. The landscape outside is gorgeous and the views are amazing, especially at sunset. The inside is spacious and elegant. The food is delicious; our guests are still raving about the meals. And the entire Vineyards staff is absolutely incredible! They are friendly, professional, and welcoming. I can't say enough about this place, and my husband and I are looking forward to staying in touch, visiting their restaurant nights, and hopefully hosting another event there in the future.

    Thank you for your amazing review of The Vineyards. We loved having you here and we thank you for choosing us! Welcome to The Vineyards' family.

    Family Owned and They Treat You Like Family!

    Our wedding was perfect. I couldn't be happier or more blessed to have my ceremony and reception at The Vineyards in Simi Valley.

    When my Husband, then Fiance, and I toured the venue, The Vineyards became unforgettable. We knew somehow that this was "the place." We had some really beautiful kind of supernatural things happen during the first few weeks of engagement and at this place we had butterflies follow us around as we toured, then again when we signed our contract, and again on rehearsal day. It was like divine confirmation. We had a very short engagement and basically had 3 months to arrange EVERYTHING for our wedding. People asked us how we did it, and honestly, outside of eating, sleeping, and breathing wedding planning, a lot of credit goes to Soroor and Jimmy and Shadi and the team at The Vineyards. Having an inclusive venue with a trusted vendor package made preparing in limited time so much easier! I truly got to enjoy my wedding day and didn't have to worry about the schedule, decor, or things going to plan because I knew I was in good hands.

    We called places right away and of the 7, only 2 places picked up, including here. We got a tour the next day and were smitten. Soroor told us she wouldn't accept our money today even if we wanted and to go explore other venues and options first for peace of mind. We were blown away with that. They wanted to make sure we were happy and found the right place for our wedding more than securing a deposit and booking a date and at the same time were confident in their venue and knew if it was right we'd be back, and we did return to book shortly after!

    From beginning to finish, the team at The Vineyards treats you like family. They're attentive, assuring, ready to help with suggestions, and radiate warmth and kindness. They know you by first name basis, work with you, and sincerely love their work. We picked out our engagement ring from a family owned business in Ventura and we felt good also knowing our venue was family owned and operated and supported people in our own community. You don't get the same feeling from a corporate hotel, golf course, or rental estate. 

    During our wedding and right after, our guests raved about how FUN our wedding was. That meant so much to us! We couldn't be happier and are so glad everyone had a great time. 

    My Dad has a brace and walks with a cane and I wanted a venue with handicap accessibility and it worked out great for him. Even though there are a few steps around the venue, there are alternative paths that are completely flat. They even have a wheelchair on hand if you need it.

    We went with the vendor package and highly recommend it! 

    Here's who we chose:

    DJ - Juan Del Villar (Deejay Kryptonite)

    Juan gives your reception so much energy and as a professional DJ knows when to cut certain songs short or seamlessly transition to another track to keep the vibe going. We forgot to bring stickers for the centerpiece prize game and with quick thinking he ended up doing a napkin game instead. 

    Photographer - Liz and Mia Photography

    Liz is super thorough and communicates quickly. She kept my confidence at a 10 and paid great attention to details. Her assistant Joe was so kind and we are glad we had a secondary photographer to capture more angles and moments with her.

    Cake: Divine Pastry Shop [ @divine_pastry_shop]

    Flavor choices at least for the vendor package were kind of limited but they do incredible work!

    Flowers: Flowers by Scarlett [ @scarlett_theflorist ]

    Scarlett has a true passion for flowers and is very sweet. She got my vision and wowed us with her handiwork.

    Pros:

    - Day of coordinator is included (no matter where you go I highly recommend one!)

    - You're supporting a family run business and vendors who love what they do. I can't say enough about them. Everyone works together and knows the place inside and out. 

    - The venue is gorgeous and offers 2 ceremony locations (garden or water wall)

    - Water wall area is fully handicap accessible, garden area totally accessible with use of golf cart on site

    - Venue package option includes DJ, cake, photographer, and flowers if you want all inclusive

    - The staff is mic'd and can communicate with each other quickly and effectively even when they are across the room from each other.

    - Competitive pricing and value for what you get. When you do the math and add up the extra costs elsewhere, you quickly see how seamless and cost efficient it is to go all-inclusive. It saves a lot of extra work.

    - Easy payment system

    - The bridal room and groom room is HUGE and private. Most places don't have a space at all for the groom or it isn't air conditioned/comfortable. The bridal room alone could house a small wedding ceremony. It's magical and perfect for getting ready photos. The bridal room has gorgeous natural light for true makeup application and its own bathroom so you don't have to risk running into the groom or guests before the event starts. 

    - Ample parking

    - There is only one event at a time in the venue space. You don't have to worry about others occupying the same space. It's only you and your guests. 

    - Twinkle lights included and already set up in reception area

    - Silver and gold options for decor and seating to go with your colors
    In house catering and the food is delicious with good selection

    - Venue allows sparkler exit

    Cons:

    - If you don't like glam or elegant, this venue may not have the right feel for you.

    - 100 person minimum so if you have a very small, intimate wedding, the price might be out of range for your budget but don't be afraid to ask/get a quote.

    - Bubble and rice toss free zone and no fake rose petals outside if that matters to you

    - Indoor real flames (candles etc) requires a permit from the county

    The Vineyards's reply:

    We thank you so much for your amazing review! We truly appreciated helping you and your family celebrate such a beautiful day. Thank you for being a part of our family for years to come and look forward to many years of friendship.

    A magical wedding at The Vineyards

    My daughter and her fiance got married at The Vineyards (Simi Valley) in January, 2022. Everything about this venue and the staff was perfect! (food, get-ready room, picture opportunities, reception room, drinks room, etc.). The bride's grandmother said that it was the most beautiful wedding she had ever been to--that's high praise! I would highly recommend this venue to anyone planning a wedding!

    The Vineyards's reply:

    Thank you for your kind words regarding The Vineyards. We loved hosting your daughter's wedding and hope to see you all again soon. Welcome to The Vineyards' family.

    We LOVED Everything About The Vineyards!

    If I could give the Vineyards more than 5 stars I absolutely would. Everything from start to finish was amazing. We felt like family, and were cared about like family. They were so accommodating, kind, helpful, and with their knowledge and expertise we enjoyed a beautiful day that we will never forget. We could not have been happier with the Vineyards and are so grateful to them for all that they did to make sure our day ran smoothly. I highly recommend the Vineyards and would not hesitate to use them in the future.

    The Vineyards's reply:

    Thank you for you kind words about The Vineyards. We loved hosting your wedding and thank you for choosing The Vineyards.

    11/10! Incredible all around

    Where to start! The vineyards was the most accommodating, efficient, polite, understanding, and most helpful venue we’ve come across. Me and my husband had an Alice in Wonderland themed wedding October 30, 2021, and not only did the venue let me and my husband dress up their venue to fit our theme- they were helpful physically with decor and helped with ideas to create it. This venue is truly “whimsical”. Pricing was great as well. There are different of options to have your ceremony and cocktail hour, which make it easier to bring your vision of your wedding day come together. The food was fantastic with loads of options to choose from to perfectly fit your wedding day (also have vegan and gluten free options for certain people). Since our wedding was themed, the venue provided options with colorful, delicious and unusual themed drinks to help with our Wonderland vision which our guests raved about. The location is close enough to hotels for your guests to stay, but far enough away to be secluded (and have no noise or roaming people around) and feel immersed in this whimsical venue; this gorgeous venue will make you forget their is a whole city around you. I would call this the Disneyland of wedding venues. Their vendors that they provide if wanted are all fantastic, and help your vision come together as easy as possible. We couldn’t imagine having a better experience than we did at The Vineyards. Thank you team Vineyards, for making our wedding be even more magical than me and my husband could ever imagine!

    The Vineyards's reply:

    It was a pleasure to host your amazing wedding! We enjoyed your Alice in Wonderland theme and loved helping your vision come to life. Thank you for your kind words and thank you for allowing us to be a part of your wedding.

    Wedding of my dreams

    WOW. Just WOW! My husband and I got married here October 2021. We first found out about The Vineyards from my aunt who contacted Jimmy I think around October 2020. We went and visited the venue and I fell in love! We went and looked at other venues, however, none of them compared to The Vineyards. We booked with them in January 2021. Soroor and Jimmy were so helpful and easy to work with. They promptly answered our emails with our various questions and made the wedding planning experience so much easier! I loved that it was an all inclusive venue and that the venue is already SOOOO beautiful that we really did not need much further decor. For the decor we did need/want, we brought it on our rehearsal day and they set everything up for us and helped us to take it down and bring it to our cars. The staff were very polite and helped to keep some of our more rowdy family members (and bridal party members) in line. Our DJ was amazing (DJ Kryptonite) and listened to requests from guests, was flexible with us changing the timeline of things as the event was happening, and was easy to work with. Our florist (Scarlett the Florist) was amazing as well. She helped to make my flower dreams a reality and helped me to know what I needed (I really don't know much about flowers, just what I wanted for a color scheme as well as that I wanted succulents). She was able to incorporate succulents into my flowers and they were so beautiful! She was very easy to work with as well. Our photographer, Deana was great and again, easy to work with (key theme of this venue and their vendors is EASY! so awesome). She helped me to feel comfortable while taking pictures and worked with us to get pictures that I know will be great! She even went and chased down some family members who did not want their pictures taken! (I'll further review her on her own review page on the knot's website once I have my pictures so I can add them to the review). The only problem we had was with the bakery that was part of the inclusive package, as they were hard to contact at times, however they made a beautiful cake. We had an amazing and pretty stress-free wedding day (which is an amazing feat for me as I am easily stressed about everything). I can honestly say I had the wedding of my dreams. I am so happy to have done my wedding at The Vineyards and wish I could experience that day all over again! I really, thoroughly enjoyed my wedding day and I truly believe that most of that is due to having picked The Vineyards as our venue and doing their all-inclusive package.

    The Vineyards's reply:

    Thank you for your kind words and amazing review. We loved hosting your wedding and we thank you for your trust in our vendor package. Thank you for allowing us to be a part of your family's celebration and welcome to the Vineyards' family.

    The Vineyards made my daughter's sweet 16 ceremony and reception beautiful. They planned the event perfectly, were flexible and the food was delicious!

    Look no further- The Best of Everything!

    After doing research on over 100 venues, mainly on the beach, and visiting over 25, I landed on the Vineyards because I was planning an LA wedding from New York in the middle of the pandemic and no one was quicker and more efficient to respond than Shadi from the Vineyards. That level of service continued throughout this whole process. However, I cant express how much the service is just the gateway to what an amazing venue this is! The whole process in planning was made so simple, I thought I must've been forgetting something. I send Shadi emails of over 20 questions and she replied back within hours with all of them answered. Then the venue itself is what sold me. The garden ceremony is a must! I have always wanted a beach wedding and this setting topped it. You hardly need flowers for the arch/chuppah as its already so green! The cocktail room has waterfalls and furniture that makes it look so chic and luxurious, and the reception room and bridal suites are stunning! More than half our wedding party told us the wedding itself was gorgeous and being on a budget I was slightly scared that I wouldnt be able to afford a beautiful wedding. The day of the wedding was flawless. If there were any issues, I had no idea! Shadi and Deena, the coordinators, were on top of every detail! One of my vendors were an hour late and they called them and made them get there and give me a refund. A forth of our wedding needed special kosher meals and they accommodated them with no issues. I cant say enough about how amazing this team and venue is. Its absolutely gorgeous and the team is really amazing. Look no further! You can even message me if you have questions! And I cant believe the price. If I were to get married all over again I would choose them again!

    The Vineyards's reply:

    Hi Danielle!

    Thank you so much for your kind words, wonderful review, and for trusting us to be a part of your day!

    We are so lucky to have been able to share such a special day with you and Shai!

    Your faith in our abilities to create a beautiful wedding and memories, especially during the pandemic, means so much to us!

    Forever,
    Your Vineyards' Family

    Gorgeous Venue

    My husband and I recently got married at the Vineyards. Prior to booking the venue we looked at a number of venues but none of them were as gorgeous as the Vineyards. We were initially greeted by one of the owners Jimmy who made us feel welcomed and devoted his time to showing us around. We had a good feeling that we wanted to book the venue once we left. As difficult as 2020 was in regards to planning a wedding, we held out hope for our May 2021 date. Soroor, one of the owners, was incredibly understanding, helpful, and accommodating with all our questions, concerns, and overall, she was an amazing to worn with. We were very lucky that we were able to have our wedding on our original date. Our guests were raving about the beautiful venue, the food, and the service. The Garden area felt so intimate and made our day so very rememberable.

    Food: Personally, finding a venue with excellent food was a big concern of ours. I can say without a doubt that their food is excellent. All of the appetizers and the entrees were great and our guests fully enjoyed their meals. There are many different appetizer choices and entrée selections. Soroor was very accommodating for some of our guests who had dietary restrictions or special requests. For dinner we chose the lemon herb chicken and the grilled New York steak. For appetizers, we chose the avocado egg rolls, beef kabobs, chicken dumplings, and cheese plate. Everything was excellent. We had a hard time narrowing down our choices because all of the food tasted so good.

    Service: The staff was so attentive to detail that they even remembered the drinks that we ordered when we had dinner at the venue on our rehearsal day. Jimmy, Soroor, and the rest of the staff treated us like family and we are incredibly happy that we chose them to host us on our special day. The day of coordination, Deana, was incredibly helpful throughout the course of planning our event and helped ease my nerves throughout the whole day. She was so on top of everything I didn’t have to think about anything and that was extremely helpful because I was so nervous waking down the aisle. Now that I look back I don’t know why I was so nervous everything went perfectly and that’s greatly attributed to the team at the Vineyards. You can’t go wrong with this venue for your special day. It was a great experience even throughout the difficulties of trying to plan a wedding during a pandemic and we wouldn’t have changed anything about our special day.

    The Vineyards's reply:

    Thank you for allowing us to be a part of your beautiful wedding. We enjoyed helping you plan and celebrate with friends and family.

    We thank you for your patience during the pandemic and your understanding.

    Thank you for your kind words! We strive to make every wedding special and and beautifu, and we are happy that we succeeded.

    Our Vineyards family is thankful for choosing us for your perfect day!
