“Balistreri Vineyards was an amazing wedding venue for our special day. Their communication was easy and they always replied to us quickly, with no issues. The quality of their work and value was outstanding - the venue was absolutely beautiful, and their pricing was great. They set up everything we needed for our wedding day and were able to accommodate us when the weather didn't cooperate. We would highly recommend this venue to anyone looking to get married. They helped us with set up and clean up, and allowed us to use any vendor we wanted for the food, though their own delicious food was a huge hit with our guests. Balistreri Vineyards was able to help us plan our wedding in just one week, making the process stress-free. We couldn't have asked for a better wedding venue.”

“We had fallen in love with this venue when we toured it for the first time and everyone was so welcoming and great to work with. When we had questions, they answered quickly. They had even taken a Polaroid picture when we toured and now we have a little memory of us at the altar before even booking this venue! We are so grateful that we decided to book at Church Ranch. Working with Amber was so wonderful and she helped me so much right after we booked this venue for our wedding. I know I had so many questions and i could always count on Amber to answer them! We didn’t hire a wedding coordinator, however, My day of Coordinator Laura was amazing and I felt like I could just enjoy the day of my wedding!! The whole Church Ranch team helped my husband and I so flawlessly for our wedding on Sept 24, 2026! We couldn’t have done it without them! Thanks to them, we had the best day ever!”
