Picture perfect, dream venue!

Before I ever started planning my wedding, the only thing I knew was that I wanted it to be outside. We held our wedding ceremony and reception at The Oaks venue at Nelson Family Vineyards in mid-October. We used their on site wedding planner, who was fantastic. We planned our wedding from across the country so having her help was invaluable. The day of was perfect. The coordinator made sure everything was running smoothly by communicating with all other vendors. All of our guests loved the venue and had a blast! Nelson Family Vineyards was perfect for us and I could not recommend them enough!

The Nelson family did an outstanding job with our event, and the setting was breathtaking. They're very nice people with no pretense or formality. They took our event very seriously, and definitely addressed any concerns we had. Our guests were very impressed with the location and the wine, and many people asked me how I found out about the place. It really is a hidden gem. They worked well with all my other vendors to ensure that everything ran smoothly. The wedding was beautiful, and I could not have asked for anything more. Thanks Michelle, Tyler, and Chris!!!

Nelson Family Vineyards is a beautiful rustic location to have your wedding. With all the charm of Sonoma County but at a fraction of the cost, they provide not only a lovely site, but a relaxed and personal approach. I have worked with them on multiple occasions and must say that every Wedding at Nelson Family Vineyards has been a wonderful experience.
