My husband and I had an incredible experience with Fallbrook Estate by Wedgewood. From the very beginning, the planning process was truly stress free. The team took such great care of us every step of the way and made the entire experience feel seamless. On our wedding day, our coordinator DJ was amazing, and along with Stephanie, they did an outstanding job making sure everything ran smoothly. They were always one step ahead, which allowed us to fully enjoy the day. Our guests had the best time and couldn’t stop talking about how much they loved the celebration. As the night came to an end, Sierra went above and beyond by helping our family gather all of our décor, making the wrap up process effortless. We are so grateful for the entire team and would highly recommend Fallbrook Estate to any couple looking for a beautiful venue and a truly supportive team.

I got married here at the beginning of June and it was the best day of my life and Forgotten Barrel definitely made it an amazing day. When I first came here to tour the place, Alyssa made me feel like a bride and not just another person looking for a venue. She was easy to work with and definitely was one of the many selling points of picking this venue for our wedding. The day itself was flawless and all our guests had a great time here.

The Vistonian was a lovely venue! We loved all of the greenery and natural light inside the venue. It was spacious and allowed for plenty of room for our guests. The bridal suite was also spacious with lots of mirrors and outlets. We used the venue for both ceremony and reception. It was an easy transition going from one to the next. We worked with Shelly, the venue coordinator, and she was fabulous! Great communication from when we toured, booked, and up to our big day. The value for what we got was amazing as well! We did their all inclusive package and were happy with the price for all that we got: tables & chairs, bridal suite, catering, open bar, and DJ.

Picking a wedding venue is now easy task and I'm so grateful to have found and chosen Shadowridge.

Codie was absolute perfection, she is so sweet and kind, she handled the day of coordination amazingly, she was there for me whenever I needed her, and she knew exactly what to do even when I had no idea! The reception hall was GORGEOUS, I loved how everything was set up, she did everything and more to help ease the stress of my wedding day! I couldn't have done this without her, Codie, I'll forever be grateful for all of your help and pure kindness. The food service was also great, we received many compliments on the cocktail hour foods and dinner service! All of the staff there were incredibly kind and nice, the bartenders, staff, chefs, bus boys, everyone was amazing. Our DJ Arnie was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING, he is recommended by Codie and works frequently with Shadowridge and I'm so thankful we booked him.
