“My husband and I  got married at Truffle Pig Winery by Wedgewood Weddings last October, and I honestly cannot imagine a more perfect or stunning place to get married. The vineyard is absolutely breathtaking — rolling vines, gorgeous scenery in every direction, and such an elegant yet warm atmosphere. From the moment we arrived, it felt magical and serene and the minute we walked in we knew it was going to be the place to have our most special day. The venue itself is incredibly well-maintained and thoughtfully designed. Every space flowed beautifully, from the ceremony area to cocktail hour and reception. Our guests could not stop talking about how gorgeous everything was, and the photos turned out unreal because the backdrop is just that good. What truly made our experience exceptional, though, was our coordinator Crystal. She was an absolute angel from start to finish. Crystal went above and beyond in every possible way — organized, calm, kind, attentive, and genuinely invested in making our day perfect. She answered every question, anticipated needs we didn’t even know we had, and handled everything seamlessly so we could truly relax and enjoy our wedding day. I truly forgot about everything that still needed to be done on the wedding day jus to find as I walked down the aisle that everything was made to be perfect. Having her there made all the difference, and we felt so supported and cared for the entire time. Truly I feel like we have made a friend for life in her and we can’t thank her enough.  If you’re considering Truffle Pig Winery, I cannot recommend it enough. Between the jaw-dropping vineyard setting, the professionalism of Wedgewood Weddings, and the incredible support from Crystal, it was truly the wedding of our dreams. We will cherish our experience here forever and will forever continue to recommend it.”

“We truly had the most amazing experience with Wedgewood Weddings at Galway Downs! Choosing an all-inclusive venue ended up being the perfect balance for us. It took so much of the stress and work out of searching for vendors on our own, while still giving us the flexibility to customize our package and make our wedding feel completely personal to us. Every planner and coordinator we worked with was incredible throughout the entire process. They were always available to answer questions, guide us through decisions, and offer valuable insight while still allowing us to bring our own vision to life. We also absolutely loved the vendors included through Wedgewood. Everyone was attentive, professional, and genuinely cared about creating exactly what we wanted. A special shoutout to the vendors we worked with through Wedgewood—our florist, bakery, photographer, and DJ—who all went above and beyond for us! Each of them took the time to understand our vision and helped bring every detail to life so beautifully. The venue was also incredibly flexible in allowing us to bring in additional outside vendors beyond the ones they provide, which made everything feel even more personalized and truly ours. Our wedding turned out even more beautiful than we imagined. We got the ease and support of an all-inclusive experience without sacrificing the ability to personalize our day, and that was exactly what we wanted. It truly felt like our dream wedding came to life, and we are so grateful to the entire Wedgewood and Galway Downs team for making it happen!”
