Kayleigh Quarterman(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 06-06-2022 My husband and I just got married at Europa (in the Cie la Vie section) after having to postpone twice due to COVID. It was absolutely perfect, and we are so thrilled that we were able to host our wedding there. The team is outstanding and was very accommodating and patient considering our multiple postponements and changes. The space itself is also beautiful, and the food and wine is delicious. There isn't a single negative thing we could say about Europa, and we are so glad we went with them. Reviewed on 17-06-2022
Irene Han(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 20-05-2022 We just had our wedding on Friday, 05/20/2022 -- the Europa Village team was an absolute pleasure to work with and the venue was delightfully picturesque. Of course we initially fell in love with the aesthetics of the winery, but the friendly, attentive and professional Europa team is what made us lock-in our venue decision. With each and every visit leading up to our wedding (initial consultation, wine & menu tasting, engagement photoshoot) we fell more and more in love with the venue and team.Our favorite venue features were (1) an extremely spacious and beautiful bridal suite, (2) delicious food - received multiple complements from the guests, (3) a beautiful gazebo for the wedding lawn alter, (4) comfortable outdoor dining area for cocktail hour / reception, (5) delicious and wide variety of wine, and (6) variety of photo/video spots (rose garden, cafe area, wine cavern, vineyard)The key Events Team members we worked with were Yesika (initial consultation), Yvette (planning) and Leann (day-of-coordinator). I was naturally anxious leading up to the wedding as I tend to over-plan and over-worry. However, each email and conversation I had with the ladies gave me complete comfort that we were in good hands. I especially appreciated: (1) transparency in prices, (2) thorough and timely responses to all of my questions, (3) their calm, positive and patient demeanor despite my anxiety level, (4) organization to avoid confusion in wedding layout or timeline, (5) patiently accepting the numerous changes I had with the layout and menu decisions, (6) being kind and friendly to all guests, family and vendors, (7) hosting a great rehearsal, (8) showing up at lightning speed anytime I called them on the day of, and (9) going above and beyond in making sure all guests were comfortable, including bringing out heaters in the middle of spring. We really can't thank them enough! Reviewed on 29-05-2022
Rachel Winn(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 11-10-2019 Europa Village is the complete package for hospitality, beauty, and value. My husband and I live out of state but the staff and coordinators made everything so easy to plan. When we had a mishap with a missed hair appointment at the last minute, they helped me find a new one to save the day. I didn’t have any bridesmaids so they helped bustle my dress after the ceremony as well! I can’t wait to be married for 10 or 20 years just so I can come back and renew my vows.

Lauren Dalessandro(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 17-11-2018 Europa Village is the perfect wedding venue! I just got married there and I cannot even express in words how grateful I am to the venue, the event coordinators, chef and all staff members. The day was magical and our guests are still raving about it! The space is intimate, charming, rustic and elegant. My mom and I had visited quite a few wineries in Temecula, but when we met Yesika and we toured the site, we instantly felt a connection. Yesika, the event manager, was professional and she is a complete expert. Her priority is knowing her brides and ensuring they are happy every step of the way. We had a guest list of 175 and not a huge budget, but Yesika helped us to get a lot of bang for our buck. Everyone at Europa Village is so friendly and warm and that is what we wanted for our guests. Chef Dean, who manages the Europa Inn and cooks for the weddings, delivered exceptional appetizers and a spectacular dinner. We are big foodies, and we would highly recommend the food at Europa. Yesika and Kirstie were on it and managed to get 175 meals out super fast and hot! Guests wouldn’t stop talking about how good the food was. The wine was also exquisite and there is a great variety available. I feel like Europa Village is a well kept secret that needs to get out. If you are looking for a wedding venue that comes with exceptional food, drinks, accessibility for guests, and coordinators who are smart, flexible, and 100% committed to making your day everything you envision, Europa Village is the place. I had a specific vision of how I wanted the venue to look and feel, and they did everything they could to help fulfill my vision. Kirstie and Yesika were so professional and always a step ahead. Several guests stayed at the Europa Village Inn and so did we. The service was top notch, breakfast was included and was incredible, and the views from the Inn are stunning. You can drive on a gold cart down to the winery in just 1-2 minutes. Our guests kept saying how beautiful and how picture perfect the whole experience was. At the winery, there was plenty of parking and guests were able to keep their cars overnight. There is also a really nice bridal suite on site with plenty of room and amentities. We feel so lucky to have found Europa Village and there is not one thing we would change about the whole experience. We are forever grateful to Europa Village for giving us the wedding of our dreams!

Meg Jones(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 15-09-2018 Been wine tasting here several times and last weekend I GOT MARRIED HERE! Kirstie coordinated everything and Chef Dean (who runs the INN) was our brilliant chef. I cannot say enough good things about this venue and the people there! They accommodated every single requests and were alway reachable with questions. Kirstie gave great planning advice and was always friendly and knowledgable. Everyone always says that something goes wrong at weddings, but that is just not the case here! It was perfection. Reviewed on 18-09-2018
Tiffany Gilman(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 12-08-2017 My husband and I got married this summer in August at the beautiful, whimsical, enchanting and all around wonderful Europa Village and it was all around an amazing experience for us. I remember when we first started looking at wedding venues, we were overwhelmed with selection and costs, and then we were reminded of a spot we loved so much from our previous Temecula wine tasting adventures and it was Europa Village.From the first conversation about wedding venue interest to the night of our wedding, Yesika and her staff were SO great to work with throughout the entire process - from listening to our vision and needs, to helping us cut costs where possible, to providing excellent vendor referrals, to accommodating last minute guest requests - we can't thank Europa enough!!! Then there was the amazing Jessica, who was our wedding coordinator throughout the process and on the night of our wedding my husband and I both felt at ease knowing we had Jessica there by our side helping to make sure it ran smoothly, we honestly couldn't have done it without her. Yesika and Jessica are truly talented wedding professionals, and awesome ladies to work with.Ambiance - unlike some of the other wineries we looked at, when you have a wedding at Europa, you get the entire winery pretty much! Not just a little section of it but the WHOLE venue. We had our ceremony on the lawn, cocktail hour in the wine cave and reception in the veranda. Definitely use the wine cave - guests loved it!! The venue itself is honestly so pretty, that you could have a wedding with very minimal to no added decor and it would still be BEAUTIFUL. The food was AMAZING!! Chef Dean outdoes himself with his chef/food skills. Our guests loved the cocktail hour appetizers, passion fruit ceviche and the Java Chicken and Salmon were so delicious. Sangria was a hit as was the wine selection through the night.Cost wise, Europa delivers exceptional quality and it in my opinion is much more \"affordable\" with minimums and no high extra venue fees than MANY of the places we looked on for a Saturday night. We stayed at the Europa Inn and loved it and the fresh breakfast prepped daily. Pretty sure this will be a tradition to go back on our anniversary.OVERALL, I could go on and on, and our guests are still talking about what an amazing day/night it was. Everyone loved it and my husband and I truly felt like our special dream wedding came to life here. :-)Thank you, thank you!! Reviewed on 21-09-2017

They were so attentive during the planning process and made me feel like my questions, ideas and plans were the most important thing every time we met or talked.

jenniferhol (bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 06-06-2015 Our wedding at Europa exceeded every expectation! It was gorgeous, yet simply elegant. We had our ceremony outside in the lawn, the cocktail hour in the cave, and the reception underneath the veranda. You do not need much in terms of decorations because it is so beautiful when lit up. All of our guests were very impressed with the location and the ambiance. \r\rOur guests were also very impressed with the food prepared by Chef Dean. The hors d'oeuvres were passed during cocktail hour and added a sense of class to the whole event. They were tasty and interesting. The taste and presentation of the meal was wonderful! The food was served quickly and efficiently.\r\rEveryone that works at Europa is very friendly and helpful! Lisa was our day of event coordinator and she was terrific. She is very organized, forthcoming, and accommodating. She always responded to emails and calls promptly and took all questions and requests seriously. On our wedding day we had a guest bring three children that we had not planned on and Lisa totally made accommodations and there was no extra stress put on us. I honestly feel that Lisa wanted our day to be exactly as we envisioned. She made sure that things ran on time and she worked well with all of our vendors.\r\rWe also booked the Inn for the weekend and it was amazing. It was really special to be able to celebrate after the wedding with our closest friends and family. This added to the whole marriage experience that I would definitely recommend if you can budget for it.\r\rIf you are looking for an outdoor wedding space with charm, I would absolutely recommend Europa!

Gabriella Mireles(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 30-05-2015 I had my dream wedding at Europa and my husband and I are so grateful to Lisa and her team for their stellar service! With a long engagement I had 2 years to plan and Europa was one of the first things I'd booked. With a wedding so far in advance you'd think maybe I wouldn't have been given the same attention as someone with a sooner wedding date but that wasn't the case. Lisa answered question after question I had, coordinated not only with myself, but my parents and my Day Of Coordinator to make the day absolutely perfect. The food was fantastic and they even made accommodations when we wanted something changed a bit. She went above and beyond to make our day seamless.\r\rThe venue itself is GORGEOUS. As a Temeculan, I'd been to many of the wineries but Europa has a special charm that's great for a more intimate feeling wedding (with 150+ people). We had our ceremony in the cave which was intimate and romantic and beautiful. Very dreamy! The reception on the veranda was so gorgeous! The grounds are so well kept and picturesque you really don't need many decorations or flowers. Europa will forever hold a special place in our hearts and we can't wait to visit again as husband and wife! Reviewed on 26-06-2015
Kathleen Mulvaney(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 17-01-2015 We looked at all the wineries in Temecula for our special day. When we found Europa we knew it was perfect for us. It's rustic and quaint with an intimate feel. We had 82 guests and each one has said how beautiful the venue was. The staff is really helpful;from the moment we expressed interest in the venue we were well taken care of. I especially want to mention the wedding coordinator- Brandon Parkhill-he is amazing! I can not say enough good things about him. He is energetic and accommodating- I felt completely calm on my wedding day because I knew he had it covered. (we basically adopted him into the family) I even hired a day of coordinator that was nowhere near as helpful as Brandon. I couldn't have asked for a better day and still sing the praises of Europa and of course, Brandon. Reviewed on 21-03-2015

From the day we met him, he was very attentive to our needs and communicated with us for all the special details. The room set-up and decor exceeded our expectations. It was so intimate and romantic. The staff was just wonderful that night as was the food. I think we were able to enjoy the rehearsal dinner more than the wedding itself due to the fact that it was a more relaxed environment. \r \rWe will definitely come back and enjoy all the offerings that Europa Village has. In the meantime, we will enjoy the few bottles of Poco Rojo that we purchased and think back about our wonderful event there.\r \rThank you again for making it so special and for all your assistance.\r \rReem and Jeff\r Reviewed on 20-03-2015
Amy Salisbury(bride)4 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 21-02-2015 Well... we booked at the Inn for our wedding night because of convenience. We didn't want to have to drive! We were only in the room for about 10 hours, so we definitely didn't get our money's worth. The best things about the Inn: privacy and location. Chef Dean makes breakfast every morning. What he made that day was not something I'd ever eat ordinarily... but pish posh. I just loved eating that weird breakfast with my handsome husband. Might stay again if I can achieve 50% off.

Anonymous (bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 15-02-2016 Okay, I can't say enough great, wonderful and awesome things about Europa Village and our Europa planner, Yesika Lavyn-Grose. The venue in it's natural state is so beautiful (a reception in the cave is a must), this is why we picked it, but Yesika and her team transformed the grounds into a fairytale for my husband and I - it was a dream come true. We had to be very careful about the budget since we were funding our own wedding and Europa Village, Yesika and the Europa team were all very helpful in that way and conscious of the budget. In all reality, I couldn't believe how beautiful it could be with our budget and in such a short timeframe, less than two months of planning. Also, please know how wonderful the staff is, they are so amazing and attentive. I also need to comment on the food as it was outstanding - Chef Dean can make any menu choice grand and tasty. I would highly recommend using Europa Village whether your budget is small or large as any event there will be absolutely beautiful. Lastly, I am still hearing from my guest about the wonderful time they had at the wedding and how much they enjoyed the venue and the food...Actually family members and friends now want to do an annual trip to Europa Village to memorialize the wonderful time they had at our wedding. Please check Europa Village out! Reviewed on 23-02-2015
Amanda Alimo(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 15-11-2014 Europa Village could not have been a more perfect venue for our dream night. The entire process from start to finish working with the team was fantastic. We had many creative/design/food/wine/organizational meetings - with my planner being more patient and kinder each step of the way. When it came down to crunch time, mini crisis were handled with ease by the amazing team at Europa village. On the day of - I nearly didn't see or hear from the staff. They handled EVERYTHING and when I came out of the suite - what I saw was a dream come true. They were there if I needed them the entire day - but working completely behind the scenes. Everything went off without a hitch and they even put up with my not only crazy navy husband's friends but also wild New Yorkers from my side of the family. And just because the wedding is over, doesn't mean our relationship with the folks at the vineyard has stopped! They won't let us go away - offering constant tastings to come up, chat, and just catch-up. I would recommend this venue to anyone and am so grateful my husband and I could share our special night here with friends and family. We truly enjoyed the night of our lives :) Reviewed on 18-12-2014
Valerie Fortier(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 17-08-2014 When my now husband and I got engaged, we agreed we wanted an intimate wedding celebration for family and close friends. After touring many of the facilities in Temecula, we stumbled across Europa Village and immediately fell in love with the site. \r\rWe booked Europa Village for our wedding and reception, as well as the Inn for the weekend and rehearsal dinner. Alyssa Ruiz was our event coordinator. She was helpful, responsive, super fun to work with and even my friends and family just adore her (in fact, all of the staff was extremely friendly and helpful). The food was incredible and Chef Dean is a gift. At the rehearsal dinner we had the Libido braised beef, and my husband's uncle said it was the best meal he'd ever had. And the food at the wedding reception was absolutely perfect.\r\rOur goal for our wedding was \"a fancy picnic in a vineyard\" and we got exactly that. Our guests keep complementing us on a great wedding, saying it's the best they've ever been to, and that they could have sat around the dinner table eating, drinking wine and enjoying the views of the vineyard while celebrating the bride and groom and catching up with loved ones all night long.\r\rIf you book Europa Village, you will not be disappointed!

Abby Member(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 27-09-2013 We were so lucky to find Europa Village for our wedding venue, not only are the grounds gorgeous but Lisa Ferguson and her staff of villagers are nothing short of amazing! \r\rAfter a long day of visiting the best wineries and wedding venues in Temecula and Fallbrook, we got home exhausted and quiet frankly feeling like we just got back from shopping for a used car. Some of the places we saw were completely beautiful, but the way they treated their potential customers just made you feel like they were out for your money. So it was back to the drawing board. I ran across Europa Village online and it seemed beautiful, so I emailed to get pricing and information. We were exhausted from visiting so many places that we decided to just do things via the internet. When I first heard back from Lisa, the first feel I got was that they were willing to work with us so that we would have our dream wedding. Not once did we feel like they were out for our money. We first went up to Europa on a Friday evening and although it was winter and the vines were empty, the grounds were stunning. Everyone was so friendly, it gave that familiar feel you get when you visit home. Our first visit and every other visit after that, exceeded our expectations. The very next day we decided to go with Europa, it just felt right!\r\rEuropa, Lisa, Chef Dean, Chef Damian and the Villagers made my wedding planning experience everything it should be, or at least everything I hoped it would be. The coordination and genuine regard from Lisa made me feel at ease as the plans moved forward. Even when we encountered bumps in the road or when I had my few bridezilla moments, Lisa helped to make sure everything worked out perfectly.\r\rWe also rented out their gorgeous 10 bedroom Inn, where I must say Chef Damian provided an amazing stay. It was so fun to have both my husband's family and my family staying there and getting to know each other. It made for a perfect place for my husband and his groomsmen to hangout while the girls were getting ready in the bridal suite! Not to mention the gorgeous \"First Look\" pictures our photographer Brett Rose was able to capture.\r\rEuropa was a perfect backdrop for our wedding- especially the sunset behind me as I was walking down the aisle. The food was amazing! Seriously both Chefs at Europa are top chef! There was not a single issue the day of the wedding- I just remember being the happiest I have ever been. We have received so many compliments on what a beautiful wedding we had and we owe that in great part to Lisa and her staff! After the wedding when my husband and I went up to the Inn, as the French doors to our room were open and we looked over Europa, my husband said to me...\"it was worth every penny!\" If we had to do it again- we would pick Europa every time!\r Reviewed on 23-10-2013
