A true gem of a wedding venue!

If my husband and I are being honest, Willow Springs Winery was a bit of a wild card in our search for wedding venues. We were sort of set on another place, but felt strongly about paying them a visit after seeing such pretty photos and positive reviews about the venue online. We immediately fell in love with Willow Springs, as it was such a beautiful, intimate, and unique venue that truly stood out amongst the other places we had visited.

We met with Michael at our first appointment, and we could tell right away that he was knowledgable, experienced, and genuine. He was so welcoming, never pressured us, and was very knowledgable while answering all of our questions. He helped us envision our wedding so much more clearly than we had prior to visiting Willow Springs. It was evident that Michael knew Willow Springs like the back of his hand, and had such great recommendations for how we could use the grounds for different parts of our wedding. After signing, he and Shauna provided us with so much valuable guidance leading up to and on our big day. They were professional, courteous, accommodating, and patient all throughout!

The food was delicious, the wine was never ending, we had no complaints about the drinks or cocktails, the villa was wonderful, and the team’s service was great from beginning to end. We absolutely cannot thank the Willow Springs team enough for how amazing they were, and this special place truly helped make our day so memorable. We’ll cherish the memories made on our wedding day forever, and could not have done it without Michael, Shauna and the Willow Springs team.

Thank you so much Willow Springs Winery for making our wedding day absolutely a dream come true!

Absolutely Amazing

We got married last night at Willow Springs Winery! I can definitely say it was the best day ever and not only because I became a wife, but also because of the amazing and exceptional service that the Willow Springs staff had to offer. They were all super friendly, accommodating and generous. They never let anyone’s drink go empty, they served a fresh, hot meal, they set up our decorations beautifully and they made the entire wedding planning process a breeze. I highly recommend everyone to check out Willow Springs even if just for a glass of wine or walk through the vineyard. It truly was perfect.

We didn't end up using the venue because of COVID - but HIGHLY recommend.

So, unfortunately, because of COVID, we couldn't use the space at Willow Springs Winery. But despite this, I feel as though I should write a review. I changed my date 3-4 times and Willow Springs (Michael) was always so quick to respond to my emails and to accommodate all my requests. At the end, we realized it wouldn't work (we ended up having a quick ceremony in my in-laws backyard) but that didn't stop Michael and his team from making an impression on us. We gave them a deposit, $1500...once we said we couldn't get married there, they gave us $1500 worth in WINE as a thank you. Are you kidding me? Could this venue be any better? They could have given us nothing but instead they really went above and beyond. It says a lot about a company and how they treat those that don't even do business with them. Super impressed.

Excellent service

Michael was very knowledgeable not only on his wine but also professional and made us feel very comfortable during the tasting. They have a huge vineyard that you can walk afterwards and an intimate room where you can have a wine tasting with family or friends of around 10. Definitely a place I would come back to and enjoy for a spring or summer afternoon. Ice wine was also quite delicious. Will make a great after meal treat.👌

Beyond perfection

Willow Springs Winery was our dream venue, it was absolutely breathtaking! Michael was incredible and made sure my vision came to life. He was extremely helpful, always answered my questions and went above & beyond! I cannot say anything bad about our experience at Willow. Not to mention the venue was breathtaking in itself.

Perfect day!!

As an Officiant - it was lovely

The venue is beautiful, the location is lovely. All the staff were very attentive and professional. Our ceremony was perfect, and so was the celebrating after.

I would strongly encourage you to select another vendor if considering Willow Springs Winery for your wedding. While the location was beautiful the experience was terrible. The event co-ordinator was so disorganized and attempted to add in costs that were not originally agreed upon. Everything had to be double checked and the process was significantly more stressful than it needed to be.

Willow Springs Winery's reply:

We are incredibly sorry to receive this review. We take full responsibility for the accounting error and since the date of this wedding are under new event management. We sincerely hope the mistakes that were felt did not diminish your memories of your special day.
Please refer to the reviews on our Facebook page which reiterate our belief that this was an anomaly.

Beautiful Wedding Venue

Willow Springs Winery has been a special place for my wife and I for the past year. We first reached out in August 2019 to inquire about holding our wedding there for late 2020. We made a visit and decided to book with them. Michael and Wilson were our main points of contact and they have always made us feel confident and reassured us of any concerns.

Due to COVID-19, our plans were thrown into uncertainty. Michael was always maintaining email or text message contact and providing constant updates regarding wedding planning. He made us feel prioritized even though he had many other couples to deal with. We were given options to postpone to a date next year or continue as planned. We were offered to hold a small gathering as low as 10 people without penalty for not meeting minimum attendance, if we so choose. Basically, Michael made sure we felt no worry about however we wanted our wedding day to go.

We ended up holding an outdoor wedding with 50 guests by the willow trees, and an indoor reception in the winemakers pavilion. Our guests loved the venue and the food. We couldn’t have asked for a better planned day given the current situation. We will definitely be making visits in the future to celebrate our anniversary.
