Falkner Winery

I was incredibly picky about our wedding venue, and my husband and I are so glad that we ended up choosing Falkner! Loretta can seem a little abrasive in her emails because she uses a lot of caps, but she's actually easy to work with and is understanding. We had our ceremony outside and the reception at the Pinnacle. It was such a beautiful site! I got so many compliments on it. The food was pretty good. The guests seemed happy with how fast they were fed and the quality of food they were given. We got a lot of compliments on the artichoke hearts and the grilled romaine salad. I was concerned about the day-of coordinator that we would have because I had heard that coordinators provided by the venue only work for the venue and don't really help the couple out, but this was not true with Falkner's coordinator. Tina did a GREAT job to make sure that our wedding was set up exactly how we wanted it and worked hard to ensure that everything was how we wanted. She even brought down appetizers to us to make sure we were fed while we were taking pictures. One thing that could have been improved was more connection between her and the DJ. The DJ announced the cake-cutting and I don't think she heard it because we didn't have any plate to put it on. Then no one passed out the cupcakes, so we ended up having like 100 cupcakes leftover because none of our guests were given them. I also had to throw my own bouquet because the DJ announced the toss and I wasn't given the tossing bouquet. We also had negotiated champagne to be served at our cocktail hour, but I later found out that it never was (not that the guests missed it). Overall, it was pretty small details that went wrong. Nothing that ruined the event. I had the time of my life and people are still complimenting me on how beautiful and fun my wedding was. I would recommend this venue to other brides considering Falkner.

We found this winery in a Temecula Magazine. We visited numerous sites for our wedding. Then we found Falkner and visited their website and just loved the pictures and music and just had to visit the winery. Before anything we went and had lunch to see what the place was like. The food and service was great! It was funny because the server was telling us about the wedding service they offer and she used to be one of the wedding coordinators. She was very helpful and it turned out when it was time for our wedding a year later she was back to be the wedding coordinator. Tina was great and took care of all the details during our special day. With everything going on and getting everyone on the same page, Tina took care of it. From setting up the Candy Station to putting out favors and making sure that everything was on time. Six o'clock sharp we were moving and kept moving all night long. She was terrific! The location was perfect we had the ceremony and reception at the winery on the Pinnacle side. The winery had everything that we needed and everything was included in the price and very reasonably! We met with the Owner Lorretta who was terrific as well!Now we are just waiting on the pictures!! Thank you to everyone at Falkner Winery for making our special day a day to remember forever! Thanks again Tina and Lorretta!!!!

We had our wedding ceremony and reception outside and everything went so smoothly. Our day of wedding manager was helpful and took care of us. It was just gorgeous and it was everything my husband and I could ask for.

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! The owner and wedding organizers and entire staff were so incredibly helpful. The winery is so beautiful, the food is practically gourmet, and the atmosphere is amazing...have been told by many people it was the most gorgeous wedding they had ever been to.

I had the best experience planning my wedding with Loretta and her team at Falkner winery. The location itself is beautiful but aside from that, the attentiveness and support you get from that team is unbelievable!! Loretta is the owner of the winery and she is super involved in the planning process. It is very rare now a days to see an owner of a company be as involved as she is, she is very dedicated. They made everything such an easy process. I had my wedding on the Pinnacle restaurant side and some of my guests are still now talking about how gorgeous and scenic my venue was. I am really happy I decided to go with Falkner as my wedding venue.

We had our reception here, our ceremony was in a church. We asked the winery to do something they had never done and they did with no problem, in fact now it's something offered! Very easy to work with, the food was wonderful, the view amazing! My husband walked into the room before I did and was blown away by how beautiful they had done everything, he came to get me so we could have a few minutes alone in the room to take it in. They listened to everything we wanted and it happened...just beautiful!

My husband and I were satisfied with our decision to choose Falkner Winery as our wedding venue. We got married in the winter and had both our ceremony and reception in doors. It was important for my husband and I to have a venue that met all our needs and could fit our large amount of guests. Falkner had more than enough space for our 100+ guest list for both the ceremony and the reception. The food wa amazing. Not one of guests said anything bad about the dinner. And everyone loved the wine. The staff was friendly and quick to get the food out and even quicker to remove the plates when the party got started. Loretta, the owner helped, us create a package that fit our budget perfectly. She also provided us with an all inclusive package that included a wedding coordinator. Krissie, our wedding coordinator was the perfect fairy god mother. With the wave of her wand, our wedding went off without a hitch. If you are looking for a romantic setting, great food/drinks, and stress free venue for your wedding...look no further...Falkner Winery is for you.

Kyle and I really enjoyed our wedding at the Falkner as did all of our guests. We got married in the upper lawn by the tasting room. Our Ceremony was so pretty. We were also going to have our reception in the same area. Loretta called me on the morning of the wedding about the unexpected weather(All of October it had been 90 in Temecula but on the day of our wedding it looked like it was going to rain.) Loretta offered to move us inside the Resturaunt which is absolutely beautiful for less then what we planned to spend on heaters in the yard. Im so happy she moved us inside it was very cold that night. It was so wonderful all of our guest said that the food was amazing and took advantage of the open bar that was included in the falkner package. I must say I had a difficult time with Loretta at first But when it comes down to it She knows that she is doing and Loretta Denise and all of the Falkner staff put on a Fantastic wedding. If anyone was to get married I would definitely recommend the Falkner. They made planning our wedding easy. So much was included in our package no unexpected fees. Thank you Falkner staff

Falkner Winery was absolutely wonderful to work with. Loretta worked with our dates and budget and always answered my emails the same day. Our coordinator Denise was great working with us behind the scenes, making sure everything got set up and we were all where we needed to be. The food selection was great, and was above and beyond what I expected for a buffet. All of this on top of a beautiful location, made for a unique and memorable wedding. All of our guests loved the location, food, and unlimited bar.

Loretta is fantastic to work with. We came to her with what we wanted and what we willing to sacrifice to make our day work...she put together a very reasonable package for us and answered all of our questions along the way. While working with the wedding coordinators, we had even more fun. They really understood our personalities and by the time the wedding came they were like family. They did a fantastic job at orchestrating the day and keeping everything on schedule. The Pinnacle Room and ceremony site were absolutely beautiful and I am continually getting compliments on how much fun everybody had!

Falkner Winery was the perfect setting for our November wedding. Tina was our planner and she was AMAZING!!! She covered every ground there was to cover. Time to throw the bouquet, there was Tina handing it to me. She brought us dinner and was so helpful!The food was fabulous! We wanted an italian meal (which wasnt something on their menu) and it was some of the best italian food we have ever had!!Over experience was great!! would highly reccommend!

The employees at Falkner should be payed top dollar to have to work for the owner of Falkner Winery. They were the only reason why we could tolerate having our wedding there. We were treated like crap by the owner and thought it was very unprofessional that she talked down to her employees to us as well. The bridal room is straight out of the 80's too. Good luck to whoever books a wedding here, you'll need it! We decided to by pass all of the bad reviews because of our "great deal" we got...wasn't worth it!

Falkner winery was a beautiful location for a wedding. The day was amazing with the views of the vineyards in the distance. Our wedding coordinator Eva was amazing and everything just fell into place with her help. I could not have imagined a more beautiful wedding. Thank you so much.

I was completely unimpressed by every thing that was "Loretta Falkner" What a piece of work that lady was! I am disgusted that a person can own and survive in a business in these trying times. I can see she had her family and friends or just paid her employees a bonus to write such reviews that are on this website. If you check other websites you will see what I am talking about. Search for wedding reviews and you will find a lot of unsatisfied people. Not too sure about the actual winery. P.S. Stop writing your own excellent reviews Loretta, I know that no one in the right mind could think of something good to say. Better to say nothing at all!!!

The Falkner Winery was absolutely fantastic. We truly enjoyed our experience from start to finish. The food was awesome, all of our guests commented on it. Eva Andrusko was our event coordinator and she was simply wonderful. She always made sure that my husband and I were taken care of and brought us anything that we might need. She also handled small catastrophes without even bothering us with the details. She is truly a life saver! The only thing I would have changed: We would have like to take home a boxed-up meal...we were starving after the wedding!!

Falkner was absolutely wonderful to us! Eva and Loretta cover all of the bases with you ahead of time so you don't have to worry about much on your wedding day. Eva took care of us all night. Our glasses were never empty, she made sure we had time to eat, and she even packaged up some of our cake and champagne for us to take back to our room. They are very familiar with the vendors on their list and work well with them. The value for the cost is completely worth it.

Falkner Winery, is one of the most secluded, romantic, and beautiful wineries in Temecula. I mostly talked to Eva through our wedding process and she helped me through every little detail and question I had about having a reception there. We had our ceremony and reception on the back lawn and the lights and greenery all came together at night. The food was amazing and we had such a great time tasting it and the wine. I highly recommend Falkner Winery to any couple looking for a winery in Temecula to host your "big day"!

We had a beautiful wedding at Falkner winery and Eva made it all possible. She helped me so much with planning and dealing with all the questions a bride could have. We had our ceremony downstairs in the barrel room and the reception upstairs in the Pinnacle restaurant. The food was great (Thanks Chef Dennis!) and we had as much fun at the tasting (food and wine) and at several other times we went by to visit the winery. It is a beautiful location with a beautiful view of the vineyards and the sun set over the hills just after our ceremony as the guests were having appetizers. I'd highly recommend having your wedding here. Everything went perfectly and I thank Eva so much!

Loretta Falker is a professional and we appreciate her taking the time to listen to us and address our concerns along the way. Tina was attentive and wonderful the day of the wedding. I appreciate her assistance on our very special day !! the venue is beautiful. We had an outdoor wedding and the decorations and lights were magical !

Our wedding at the Falkner was absolutely beautiful. I have been told by my guests again and again that this was the best wedding they have ever been to! I attribute that largely to the staff and beautiful scenery at the Falkner. Everyone from Loretta to our wedding coordinator, Tina, to the staff was very helpful and friendly. The food is incredible, and the value you get for the amount you spend is extraordinary! Tina was incredible. Very organized, professional and fun!The only thing to watch out for is the fact that there may be two weddings taking place at the same time. While the Falkner provides for complete privacy, you may have music from another ceremony bleed over into yours (we did... a bit disappointing). So you may want to try to coordinate the ceremony times, or request music levels are kept at a certain level. Overall, though, if I had to do it again, I would call the Falkner to book my date immediately!
