“As photographers, it is essential for us to be able to work seamlessly with all of the team members on a wedding day. The staff and service at Vellano Estate by Wedgewood Weddings provides such an incredible environment for our team. We have worked with this venue for ten years and we could not be more thrilled to be on property. When we are there we know that our clients are being taken care of from little things like champagne on ice in their prep room and appetizers waiting after their recessional - to big things like tracking down family members for photos and helping everyone stay on pace and organized and most importantly - STRESS FREE!! We love this venue and this staff. 5 stars every time.”

“As a professional photographer, I’ve had the privilege of working at the Diamond Bar Golf Course on several occasions and I can confidently say that DBGC stands out as one of the absolute best. The venue has recently been renovated and has a stunning, airy and open ballroom and gorgeous outdoor ceremony site. Most importantly, DBGC’s events staff is professional, attentive and have been genuinely kind to work with at every event I have had the honor of being a part of. These are things that I know my couples look for when choosing a venue and they can certainly find it all here.”

“Mountain Meadows caught our eye as we loved the pictures that were featured. I looked at their pricing that was available through The Knot and saw that they had very reasonable prices compared to other venues. We decided to book a tour with Gaby, and she was very knowledgeable and answered all our questions that we had. She acted very professional and didn’t hesitate to offer her help. We ended up booking that same day because they had a few booking specials. We picked, a free additional hour of event time, 500 off ceremony site fee, and a free upgrade from classic to premium bar. In addition, we really liked that brands like Jameson, Hennessey, and Patron were in their premium bar package. I know a lot of venues would charge more and would even see these brands on “top shelf” menus. Throughout the whole process, Gaby was very responsive, even though since she was busy with other weddings. She would always make sure to reply on the same day but no later than the next day.  The look of the venue wasn’t too fabulous, but good enough for us. I was a little nervous about the food as I have seen mixed reviews stating that the food is good or that the food is bland. I also been to a Wedgewood wedding early last year with a similar menu and the food was average at best. The Wedgewood Wedding also had prime rib carving which was really dry, tough and well done. However, most of the food at Mountain Meadows was very surprisingly tasty. I could probably pass on the rice, but the scalloped potatoes and mac and cheese were both good. The salmon was okay to me, but I heard from a few guests that they went back for seconds. The prime rib at Mountain Meadows was probably my favorite as it was properly cooked and well-seasoned, which relieved me as I was paying extra for this feature. I know that the short ribs are really good too as we tried this during our tasting, but we did not pay extra for this since we already opted for the prime rib. Mountain Meadows also had great recommendations for vendors as well. The florist that we picked (Tutta Bella) really nailed it with the spiral centerpieces. Everyone loved SomeCrust (bakery) since their cake was very moist and not too overly sweet. The photo booth that we picked also (LX Pix) also had GREAT quality pictures (which I will be posting). Mountain Meadows also allowed outside vendors to come in also and did not require proof of insurance. I know that there are a lot of venues that are very strict and only allow their own services/vendors. We were able to hire an ice cream cart and a late night Kogi Truck to serve tacos. The only con I would say is that we ended up overestimating our guest count early in the process and didn’t adjust until right before the deadline. We ended up making payments for a little over our actual guest count and they mentioned they had to go through an approval process to refund us the extra expenses. My advice is if you would like to book, make sure to give an accurate guest count, or give a lower guest count. That way, you can pay the venue the difference versus going through the approval process. Or if you have a better idea of your guest count, make sure to adjust before you submit the remaining payments. Overall, it was a great experience. The service on the day of the wedding was fantastic. They saved my husband and I hors d’oeuvres as we were taking pictures during cocktail hour. The hors d’oeuvres were delicious and they did not skimp on the portion sizes as well”
