I had the absolute pleasure of getting married at this venue just a month ago, and I can confidently say it’s a hidden gem! Everything came together beautifully. We chose the Elite Package and worked with their in-house florist, Events by Floral Sensations (amazing floral arrangements omg!), DJ from JC Entertainment, and cake vendor, Bo Cakes, while bringing in our own officiant and photographer. Every detail went above and beyond my expectations. I'm still getting compliments on how gorgeous the venue was and how amazing the food tasted! Iveth, our coordinator, was incredible. She made the entire process so smooth and stress-free, which truly says a lot coming from someone with a Type A personality who usually struggles to let go of control (LOL). The venue also provides a wedding planner to help keep everything organized and on track, which made the planning process so much easier for me. The day of coordination went without a hitch and Kyle, our DJ, did such an amazing job with the music for our ceremony and the reception and Iveth was on top of everything! The food was absolutely delicious! Admittedly, we were a little hesitant after sampling it at the extravaganza, where much of it was overcooked, likely due to the small bite-sized portions prepared for the crowd. But don’t let that discourage you. On the actual day, the prime rib was cooked to perfection, the sides were flavorful, and everyone kept raving about the tray-passed appetizers. Will set aside a special platter of appetizers for my husband and me so we wouldn’t miss out while we were taking family portraits during cocktail hour. The drinks were another highlight! Strong, flavorful, and consistently complimented by our guests! At the end of the night, they packaged up our leftover cake, 2 plates of leftovers to go with a bottle of champagne with a thoughtful thank you note. I would do it all over again! I am so glad I came across Wedgewood Weddings, you guys have an incredible team! To the Orchard Team: Iveth, Will, Sara, Anissa, Krystle, Kevin, Oscar, Rileigh, Abby and Marcella, thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making our day so special. We couldn't have done it without you all! And Will, thank you for being so awesome and letting us feed your catfish LOL and the turtles at the end of the night.

Galway Downs by Wedgewood Weddings was an absolute dream venue for our wedding. From the very first planning meeting, the team was incredibly responsive, attentive, and friendly in helping us bring our vision to life. The value they provided was unmatched - the naturally beautiful space required minimal additional decor, and the add-ons like the photo both and cold touch sparklers were very memorable. We felt like no small detail was missed thanks to Ashley, Austin, Aubree, Devin, Ireland, Kylie, Makenna, Mikayla, Austin (our DJ&MC), and DJ (our banquet coordinator). They truly feel like family by the end of it all. We are forever thankful to the entire Galway Downs team for making our wedding day so special and stress-free.

We are still floating on cloud nine after our wedding at Temecula Creek Inn this past weekend. From start to finish, the experience was absolutely magical. We hosted our rehearsal in the beautiful Meadows and used the lush grounds as a backdrop for our bridal party photos in traditional Vietnamese dresses—it made for the most stunning, heartfelt moments. Our actual wedding took place at the Stone House, and it was nothing short of perfection. One of the unexpected highlights of a spring wedding was seeing all the rose bushes in full bloom. The entire property was incredibly green and well-maintained—a noticeable difference from other nearby venues that relied on artificial turf, which felt less authentic in comparison. TCI’s grounds are truly exceptional, with a rustic, romantic charm that brought our Bridgerton-inspired enchanted garden theme to life. From the babbling creek and grand tree canopy to the string lights and lush lawns, every corner of the venue shined with natural beauty. If you're dreaming of an outdoor wedding, look no further. One huge perk is that TCI isn’t subject to a 10pm curfew, which gave us the flexibility to keep the celebration going. Because they’re owned by Pechanga, we were also able to provide guests with shuttle rides to the casino for an unforgettable after-party. And for the golf enthusiasts in our group, the nighttime glow golf competition was a surprise hit—something we’ve never seen at another venue! The Stone House itself is steeped in history and full of character. With its cozy fireplace and intimate feel, it offered what I can only describe as understated luxury—warm, inviting, and personal without ever feeling over-the-top. During our ceremony, several guests told us they saw golden specks floating in the air as the sunlight streamed in—it was probably pollen, but it looked just like fairy dust. Truly a fairytale moment! A special shoutout to Erika P., who answered all of our many questions with patience and clarity. The front desk staff greeted us so warmly, and every team member we interacted with—from housekeeping to the servers at Cork Fire Kitchen—was attentive, friendly, and genuinely kind. Thanks to TCI, we had the wedding of our dreams, and we already can’t wait to come back for a future anniversary stay.

We got married through the Riverside courthouse at the chapel. It was so easy and affordable, but also very beautiful and special. We were allowed to have up to 40 guests, which was exactly the size we were looking for. The chapel is gorgeous and the photos we got were stunning. I highly recommend as an alternative to a courthouse or city hall wedding.

The Riverside Art Museum was an absolute pleasure to work with for a wedding I DJ for. Their communication style was caring, thoughtful, considerate, detailed, and professional throughout the first of contact til day of the wedding, and throughout. The quality of their work and the overall value they provided was truly impressive - the venue was elegant, with breathtaking views that made for a truly memorable setting. When the ceremony ran behind schedule do to the bride not present as of yet, the staff was incredibly accommodating. One thing I must note that I don't see to often. They stayed out of the way until all of the guests had departed before efficiently breaking down the space. It's shows their thoughts are on the couples having a great time up until the last minute and giving the guest time to exit. Not trying to clean up and break down around the guest just to get off sooner. Kisbel (Event Manager) and the entire team felt like close friends committed to making their friends special day a success! I couldn't have asked for a better wedding venue and staff to had worked with for the first time. Highly Recommended!
