MSR was by far our dream venue. Not only are the views and property absolutely stunning, but Scena and Susanne were incredible to work with. Wedding planning is hard and stressful, there’s always something you didn’t think of, but, believe me, Scena already has and has already worked it out for you. A God send Our family and us had so much fun staying here as well. We loved being able to stay for 4 days, wind down with our close family after the wedding, and relive the moments together. It truly makes the weekend more special when you don’t have to pack up and get out the very next day. I could go on and on about how wonderful our weekend was. I highly recommend MSR and working with Scena and Susanne. It’s worth the trust me!

Blue Agave Club is part of a family of great Mexican Restaurants located in the Bay Area. Located in the heart of downtown Pleasanton, Blue Agave Club first opened its doors in April, 1997. Being the very first restaurant in the area to debut high-end Mexican cuisine, it was clear there was something special about Blue Agave from the very beginning. Boasting an impressive list of premium tequila, BAC had a huge impact on our community by introducing the art of tequila tasting. It wasn’t long before we quickly became well known for our 100% Blue Agave Tequila margaritas, featuring a secret homemade sweet and sour recipe.

Callippe Preserve Golf Course was an absolute dream venue for our wedding! From the moment we first reached out, Morgan Chandler and her team were friendly, responsive, and kind throughout the entire planning process. They went above and beyond to ensure our special day was gorgeous and professional in every way. When we encountered a few bumps along the way, they took care of it right away without any fuss. The staff at the venue was incredible as well! Setting up all of our decor, serving dinner and everything in between took so much stress off of my plate and I will always be so grateful!

From our first conversation with Elliston Vineyards, we knew we had found our venue. The team was incredibly transparent about every detail and even gave us a spreadsheet to calculate costs ourselves—no surprises, no hidden fees. Their coordinator Kat was with us the entire day, handling everything from setup to teardown, which let us actually enjoy our wedding instead of stressing about logistics. The mansion interior is stunning on its own, so we barely needed to decorate, and the parking and accessibility made it easy for our guests to get there. Everything ran smoothly because Elliston thought through every single detail before our big day. We can't thank them enough for making our wedding feel effortless and special.
