This venue brought our wedding to life with the sweeping views and nothing but rolling hills as far as the eye could see. We had great locations across the property picked out for photos which was very important to us as we didn't get any engagement photos. The layout of the pavilion worked perfectly for our group, our families loved it. The live band and catering from their preferred vendor list were a hit. Mission Peak Wine made our special day magical. We are so thankful to remember our special day at their gorgeous venue.

This review is long overdue. The staff was really amazing in coordinating our perfect wedding right from the beginning. We were planning our big day from out of state, which you would think would cause a few hiccups but the staff at J Winston Winery made everything very easy. Taylor Kinsey, Operations manager, was always quick to respond, provided great recommendations, had tremendous patience and was very professional throughout the entire process. They offered a package to buy out the winery at a very reasonable price so we didn’t have to worry about uninvited guests or rush any last minute details. The wine packages were just as reasonable; the only tough decision here was deciding which ones to serve. The newly built barn, where we hosted our reception was beautifully done. It had all the right touches with very little need for additional decorations. The day before the wedding we were able to setup/prep anything we needed to and of course enjoyed some of their amazing wine. We were really appreciative of them working closely with our multiple vendors prior to wedding day and getting them all set up on our special day. We can’t thank them enough for making our special day truly magical. We still visit the winery when we’re in town and to this day continue to thank them for the great job they did and reminiscence on the fun we had. Thank you John and the J Winston Winery team for being there for us especially Taylor and Leyla!

Venue considerations

  • Dance floor not included
  • No all-inclusive dining options

We toured several venues, but Guglielmo’s permanent tent and rustic Italian storybook village surrounding is what sold it for us. Also, they had a package deal full of excellent local vendors! We went without a planner, which is risky, of course- but we did it and it wasn’t that hard- simply because with the all-inclusive package, the vendor vetting and research were very easy. Our initial point of contact left the company about a month after we signed, but the woman training under her, Brianna, did a great job assuming the role and owning the position. The wedding was even more beautiful than I could have imagined. The space is so naturally beautiful that when the decorations and settings are placed- it’s just next level simple, rustic luxury. This place is ultimate romance.
