  Rios-Lovell has a beautiful vineyard, gazebo, pavilion, reception room, and ballroom. There is also a nature reserve across from Rios, so the view is gorgeous. Rios was a significantly more affordable venue than the other wineries in the area. The staff was great to work with. They helped us with a payment plan. They welcomed us whenever we brought family and friends by to show them the venue in the months leading up to the wedding. They coordinated with us to set up and decorate, and helped us bring in our own caterer.
  
  We had about 250-300 guests and over 50 of them were kids, so we were intent on finding a venue that had plenty of space for kiddos and was also away from the road or parking lot. The kids at our wedding had plenty of space to run around and play. We had our receiving line in the front room, buffet in the main room, drinks and hor d'oeuvres at the wine bar, dinner in the green space, dancing in the gazebo, and the candy bar and games in the pavilion.
  
  Highly recommend this venue!

  This place was a real gem. We actually found it just driving by while looking at other winery's in the Livermore area. We were pleasantly surprised. Most of our guests have never attended a winery wedding in Livermore, we have not stopped getting compliments on how beautiful the venue was.

  Loved this winery, it was a true gem. Loved having our wedding there. You can have a beautiful winery wedding without having to go all the way to Napa, and the value is great for those wedding budgets.

  I had been slightly apprehensive when I learned a new company would be managing my wedding at the venue I'd booked over a year before after seeing it and loving it. From my first contact with Willowstone at the Vines, I was reassured by the fact they were familiar with the venue and dedicated to my having a positive, stress free experience. They had helpful suggestions about organizing the room and coordinating the timeline. They worked together well with my other vendors. As my wedding had been booked before, I had a different caterer so I cannot comment on their menu but if it is anything like the service, I would believe the best. Also, by the time of my wedding, they had done extensive cleaning, lending everything to smell fresh and look shiny and clean. Another highlight were the changes to the bridal suite. The new furnishings were beautiful, bridal, comfortable, and great for prep pictures. The Willowstone at the Vines has added to an already great, beautiful venue for weddings.
