This venue was everything I could have ever dreamed of and more. My husband and I had our wedding, April 2, 2022. We worked with Michelle quite a bit as our planner and she was wonderful, answered all of our questions and was able to make us feel comfortable in what could be a stressful time of wedding planning. A month before our wedding we started working with Desiree, and Desiree was AMAZING!!! She was available for me to pick her brain for the little things right before which made me so comfortable and feel at ease. The day of my wedding I was not stressed one bit and Desiree and Abott Manor were a huge part in that. I showed up at 12, and my whole wedding and reception was set up and looked beautiful. The took the vision I had on paper and brought it to life and honestly did way better than I could have imagined. Desiree and her team made my wedding run so smooth and flawless. They even packed everything into our cars at the end of the night. Our guests had a blast and couldn't stop talking about how beautiful the venue was, which was amazing cause a lot less work and cheaper for decorating. I truly am so pleased and could not have had the wedding I had without Abbott manor and their amazing staff. This venue is truly one of a kind and if you want a great beautiful venue that will set up, decorate, take down, pack cars, and provide many more services Abbott manor is for you. Truly grateful and thankful for them!
My husband and I had our wedding at Abbott Manor a couple weeks ago and cannot stop reflecting on what a perfect day it was! The staff really pulled everything together seamlessly, and I never imagined that the big day would be so stress-free as a bride. Throughout the entire planning process, Michele was super helpful and always responded to our emails right away. Depending on who you use as vendors (food, DJ, officiant, etc), this may be the most affordable place to get married in the heart of wine country during prime wedding season. There were no hidden fees or anything surprising like that. Not to mention, my husband and I were one of the many couples that had to postpone our original wedding date in 2020 due to the pandemic, and Abbott Manor was very flexible with our date change while still honoring our original down-payment. I feel very lucky to not have lost any money during this unforeseen event, unlike so many others. Overall, I think Abbott Manor is a wonderful place to get married and I wouldn't change a thing about how ours turned out.
We love this venue!! Michelle was so professional and detailed in everything. The venue is beautifully up kept, flowers and greenery everywhere, and spectacular ponds and mini waterfalls. Michelle deserves all the credit! She is amazing and will make your day so special! Highly suggest booking this venue for your special day.
We planned to get married 5/3 which changed due to the pandemic. We were able to reschedule SO easily and Albert and Michelle have been the most gracious and helpful duo we could have ever come across. We ended up not getting married on our second date, 7/19, since my Fiance is in the military and his leave didn't get approved, again, due to the virus. We are planning on still using this venue once his travel ban has lifted, just waiting to plan the new date until then. This site is TOOOOOOOOO dang pretty to pass up, and Albert has been so helpful in letting us know all the small details we needed along the way for planning. He is truly right by your side throughout the whole planning process. Would give more than 5 stars if I could!!!! We will still have our big day here. No way we'd pass this up. HIGHLY recommend this venue. Even if you're not in the SoCal Area, Albert can help you plan through video chat or calling. He is so flexible and REALLY knows what he is talking about, you can tell he cares about his clients and has a passion for planning weddings at this incredible venue. Can't say enough good about this entire place!
My husband and I were married at Abbott Manor on 10/11/19. The day could not have been more perfect. This venue is absolutely gorgeous and Albert and Michelle are so professional and helpful with every step of the planning process, of which you get a whole year with them of unlimited visits and 3 design appointments to help make the wedding of your dreams. There were no hidden fees, the value was great, and the service was even better. Our only minor complaint would be the staff cleaning up at the end of the evening were a little TOO efficient and some of our guests lost their cake or food from their table before they had a chance to finish. But otherwise it was a flawless evening and we are so happy we found this place!
I cannot put into words how amazing Albert and his staff are at Abbott Manor! Since Day 1, the hands on (or off- you prefer) coordination and planning help from Albert was best in class. From the breathtaking venue, with water fountains and gorgeous trees, to the perfect reception area, everything came together seamlessly thanks to the help of Albert! Thank you for helping us plan the wedding of our dreams!
I AM SO INCREDIBLY HAPPY THAT WE GOT MARRIED HERE!!! First off, it is beautiful!!! And with the lights at night, it was breathtaking and perfect!!!
First off, we had the pleasure of meeting Michele, who was just amazing! She was patient with us, answered all of our questions, discussed our Pinterest board ideas... She was the perfect person to meet! I called my mom as soon as we left and told her that we chose the perfect place for our wedding!!! Michele also handled our design appointment, which she was completely prepared for and made me even happier with our decision.
There were so many pros, but here are a few...
1. MICHELE & ALBERT ARE AMAZING!!
2. The venue is beautiful!!
3. Their preferred vendors were wonderful!!
4. Price is very reasonable and so much is included!!
5. They have tons of decorations that are available to use.
6. You can purchase & handle your own beer & wine.
7. They set-up & clean-up!
8. IT IS JUST PERFECT!!
When it came to the wedding month, they answered all of my last minute questions. Albert handled my final meeting at the venue. Due to their events that week, they were very flexible with me about the drop off of all of my decorations and alcohol. It meant the absolute world to me and took so much stress of my plate! He took care of finalizing all of the details with my vendors! He put my parents at ease as soon as they met!! He made sure everything ran perfectly and to be honest if something went wrong I have no idea! At the end of the night, he put everything in our cars which is absolutely wonderful to realize that you are all set and can enjoy your wedding night & honeymoon!
THANK YOU ALBERT & MICHELE!! I couldn't be happier that I chose to get married at Abbott Manor!!!
Albert and Michele were wonderful! We are so thankful to have found this venue. We booked a year in advance, and they helped us every step of the way. We had so many questions, and their experience and care for couples gave us much assurance. The day of the wedding was spectacular. We walked in, and the Abbott Manor staff had created the space into exactly what we had envisioned. Everything was so well-coordinated, and we were able to enjoy every special moment of our wedding day. We would definitely recommend Abbott Manor to future couples who want quality with a good price! Trust us, this is the best spot in Temecula Wine Country.
My husband and I had a wondeful experience from start to finish with Abbott Manor. Albert and his wife were always ready to answer a question, respond to an email, and bend over backwards to make sure we had the best day ever. The price gave me reverse sticker shock. I recommend this venue to ANY bride who wants the winery backdrop without the winery price tag. Thank you to Albert and his inncredible staff for making our wedding the legendary!!
My what a beautiful day we had! We have been married a little over three months and I still think about that special day regularly and just want to go through our photos daily! I was grateful for how involved Albert and Michele are in the planning process and the day itself. The venue itself is beautiful and dreamy, it was the perfect place to get married but what really sold us was Albert and Michele! They love what they do and they take pride in all they do. Albert actually was sick the day of our wedding so he was in and out but Michele and staff did amazing. And Albert was there for all the important stuff. Waiting to walk down the aisle he stood there with me and my dad with a smile on his face chit chatting with us. He had to be pulled away right before the ceremony started because the groom had a loose button on his jacket. So although I am sure Albert didn't feel well he literally ran and fixed the button so quickly then was right there by my side until it was time for me to take the best walk of my life. Point is we had a perfect day. And they want you to have a perfect day!! The biggest thing we wanted was a stress free day. We didn't want our family and friends running around making sure everything was perfect. We wanted them to enjoy as well. I had no worries that day. And every one had an amazing day! So many people said it was the best wedding they have been to in a long time. Thank you Abbott Manor for being the first day of our happily ever after!!
Abbott Manor is an absolutely dreamy venue. Albert, the owner, made our wedding planning process organized and the wedding day seamless. The entire venue feels like a fairytale and I knew the minute we took the tour that this was the right venue for us. Our wedding was spectacular due to Albert and Abbott Manor!
We recently had our wedding on July 21, 2018 and are still absolutely amazed with how beautiful and perfect of a day it was, with a huge thank you to Albert and Michelle Abbott! When we first booked Abbott Manor relatively soon after we became engaged in March 2017, we were immediately impressed with the overall value for what was included with their wedding package. We were also drawn to being allowed to bring in outside vendors, since we felt that was what truly personalized our big day and made it special. The venue, itself, is naturally gorgeous and everywhere you turned on our wedding day (even in the heat of summer) was an incredible photo opportunity for us and the guests! Our guests are still complimenting us on how stunning our wedding was, and I am still getting tagged in photos that guests took all around the property! We have even had guests tell us that our wedding was the best that they have ever been to, and even got asked for the contact information for Albert and Michelle for their upcoming days. Albert and Michelle also provided incredible service and professionalism from the initial meeting all the way through the day. We always felt that our needs and questions were promptly addressed, and that our vision was understood. I highly recommend Abbott Manor if you are looking for an affordable option in Temecula Wine Country that still provides beautiful scenery and upscale service! Thank you so much again for making our wedding day absolutely magical!!!
From the moment my husband and I walked into Abbott Manor, we have loved every minute of the wedding planning process! The venue is very beautiful! Our guests loved all of the flowers, ponds, and so many scenery options for photos. Gabe+Brit (our photographers) took such beautiful wedding photos! They were so nice and definitely made sure everything kept on schedule. Albert and Michelle are great! They made the process feel so easy and stress free, especially on the day of my wedding. A really big thank you to them and their staff for making my special day even more special and amazing! I am definitely going to recommend this venue to my friends and family!
I cannot rave about Abbott Manor enough! I have held off on writing this review for a couple of weeks, just because I couldn't quite think of the words to adequately describe how wonderful Albert & Michelle (along with their venue!) are. Planning a wedding is quite stressful, but as soon as we walked the grounds at Abbott Manor, we knew it was the perfect place to hold our wedding. Albert & Michelle could not have been more helpful. They gave us GREAT recommendations for several of our other vendors, answered any questions that we had over the past 13 months, and when the big day came, they delivered on everything they had promised us, and then some! The day went SO smooth, and I have had SO many people still coming up to me (a month later!) telling me how beautiful the wedding was. (Not to mention, we saved SO much money compared to all of the other venues we looked into). I would recommend this venue over and over again. If anyone is searching for something BEAUTIFUL and unique, your search is over! :)

Abbott Manor is hands down the BEST venue we could have ever asked for. Albert and Michelle do such an amazing job at what they do- which is plan weddings and provide support and guidance during your entire planning process. A.M. was our first and only venue tour because once you arrive on their property and speak with them, you know you’ve found the right place. Like I mentioned before, Albert and Michelle are with you every step of the way as coordinators providing you a planning timeline, decor and vendor suggestions, keeping you up to date on multiple design appointments, you name it and they do it!
On our wedding day unfortunately Albert was sick so Michelle and her staff took over for the day and wow did they do a phenomenal job! As a first-time bride and groom you don’t really know what to expect and Michelle and her staff left nothing unknown! We always knew where to be, what time, what was next, always attentive asking if we (bride and groom) needed anything. It was just nothing short of the perfect day due to the Abbott Manor team. Thank you Albert and Michelle for helping give us the wedding of our dreams!!!
We had our wedding there April 22nd and it was awesome!! We had so much fun and the day went by smoothly. Albert and Michele were great thru the whole process of planning and worked on making our experience easier. They are both very nice. I would def recommend anyone to have their wedding at abbot.
The venue and staff are amazing! My husband and I were married April 28th and it was the most perfect day. We have received numerous compliments from our guests with many saying it was the BEST wedding they have ever attended. Don't look any further because Abbott Manor is the perfect venue. I highly recommend using their recommended vendors as well. The whole thing was flawless!
After looking around at other venues around the North County/Riverside area, my fiance and I were extremely impressed with the honest, up-front approach that Albert (the owner/coordinator) takes with his venue. The pricing is competitive and fair, the venue is gorgeous, the photographers (Gabe and Britt) were fantastic, there was absolutely no "nickel-and-diming" going on whatsoever, and the package he offered really was very inclusive.
In addition, Albert was an absolute professional coordinator/planner. He helped guide my fiance and I through every step of the planning process; from selecting our various vendors, to sorting through the minutia of detail surrounding our wedding. It was really refreshing to see that even while operating as a successful business, Abbott Manor's top priority is still the Bride and Groom, and their happiness on their wedding day.
Last, but certainly not least, he and his staff did a wonderful job on the day of the wedding. Every decoration was set up, as planned, by the time we walked into the venue at noon on our wedding day. He walked us (and the bridal party, plus parents) through all of the timing and motions for the ceremony, and worked with the DJ to help keep everything flowing smoothly.
We have since heard nothing but compliments and praise from our guests, saying that this was: "the most fun wedding they've been to" ... "the venue was beautiful" ... "the staff was excellent", etc. All thanks to Albert, his wife Michele, and their staff.
My fiance and I highly recommend Abbott Manor, and owe a lot of thanks to Albert and his team. They made our wedding day great.
I can't say enough amazing things about Abbott Manor and our perfect wedding on 11/5! First, the venue is beautiful... we were looking for something a little different and Abbott Manor was that hidden oasis off the beaten path that we envisioned. Albert and Michele are so helpful, accommodating and really take the stress out of planning a wedding. Everything was handled and coordinated so well throughout the entire day. It was the best and I would recommend x 100 :)
I cannot recommend abbott manor enough! Albert was so helpful through our entire planning process! Our wedding was perfect and so beautiful! Thank you Albert!
Beautiful venue to have your wedding. They have a lot of supplies you need already available on property to help cut costs. Albert and Michele were helpful in the planning process and in day of coordination. Would definitely recommend!
We just had our wedding at Abbott Manor and I couldn't have picked a better venue! The grounds are naturally beautiful and blooming with flowers during the day, only to be followed by beautiful lit up trees and other lights decorating the place at night. There were so many parts of the property that provided great photo ops for both the bridal party and the guests who were enjoying the property. In addition, the outdoor setting made all of our guests so relaxed with room to move around and mingle. This was refreshing following multiple weddings I attended as a guest where we were in a darkened hotel ballroom. We received such rave reviews about our wedding!
We are also from out of state and had to plan our wedding from a long distance, but Albert is great to work with, is very helpful, and is very capable at his job! We were just crossing our fingers that all the random vendors we selected (some from Albert's recommendations and some not) worked well together, but Albert ensured the wedding went smoothly the day of! Thank you Albert and the Abbott Manor staff!
We had our dream wedding at Abbott Manor this summer. It was everything we wanted. Guests told us it was one of the most beautiful weddings they have ever been to. The venue is spacious, beautiful, and very inviting. Albert the venue's owner and event coordinator was very accommodating and has great intuition to what makes a wedding great. He has many years of experience and so he was able to guide us in making a perfect wedding plan. He has many connections with great vendors and they all worked together great. Unlike other venues that forces you to use their overcharged catering services, we were able to use our own caterer who was a family friend and save a lot of money, huge bonus for us.
The venue is huge! Although an outdoor venue, the dining area is covered and the dance floor is in a large gazebo which allowed us to put up a beautiful chandelier design and also kept the guest cool from the summer Temecula heat. There's also a large garden/yard area where we put out lawn games, a waterfall backdrop, and also a pond with a bridge to take pictures. And at night the place lights up with twinkle lights on the trees! Its right in the Temecula wine country and half the price as other winery venues! I can't say enough good things about Abbott Manor! Highly recommend it to have a beautiful unforgettable garden wedding!
I can't say enough great things about Albert, Michelle and the Abbott Manor team! Albert and Michelle were so great during the whole planning process, walking us through everything and making sure that we would have the beautiful wedding we imagined. Out of all the other vendors we visited and researched, Abbott Manor turned out to be one of the best. We were super impressed with the beautiful garden venue, but most of all the team that works along with you and your partner to plan all the details of that day. On the day of the wedding, everything went smoothly and Albert and their team ensured that we enjoyed the whole reception, from start to finish. Overall, such a great experience and I'm so glad we went with Abbott!
We came across Abbott Manor while looking for a venu for our 200 guest count wedding. We had already looked at a few venues but nothing really spiked our interest. When we visited the venue I knew I definitely interested after speaking to Albert my fiance and I knew we had to have our wedding here! I had always wanted a garden wedding and I couldn't be happier with the choice we made. Albert was so helpful, full of ideas and information to help me in planning our wedding. I would definitely recommend this venu to anyone looking for the perfect garden wedding!
Such a beautiful venue! The price, for what is included, is extremely reasonable. My daughter's wedding was better than I could have dreamed. The owner's knowledge and advice made the planning process easier on all of us and he kept us on track. I would do this all over again!
Our wedding at Abbot Manor was absolutely beautiful and all we ever wanted. The staff is very kind and helpful. Albert and Michelle were there to help us through the whole process! That was my favorite part of this venue, having help! The owners are as involved as you want them to be when helping to coordinate and find things for the big day. On the day of we were able to just enjoy the day. The grounds are beautiful and our guests loved taking pictures at the many different ponds and areas that are set up around the venue.LOVE! Definitely recommend this place.
Our wedding here was amazing! Albert and Michele are great! They are both super friendly and help you with every step of wedding planning. At the wedding, so many people asked us where we found this venue and told us how nice they thought it was. I looked through a lot of venues and this one stood out. I would recommend The Abbott Manor to anyone.
We just had our wedding at Abbott Manor last weekend. From the time we booked this venue Albert was there every step of the way to ensure us that our wedding would be nothing short of Amazing. He exceeded our expectations and was so professional and helpful with anything we needed/ wanted. The venue is beautiful and the staff is so great so we were very pleased. Hope to go back and visit again soon. Thanks for everything! -Carlee & Joaquim Morera
Abbott manor was such a beautiful venue!! My friends and family could not stop raving about how beautiful everything was. Plus, when you add that to how incredible Albert and his staff were in the entire planning process and on the day of the event, there's not much more that can be said other than THANK YOU!! Seriously, Albert made planning my wedding sooo much easier and on the day of the event, he and his staff went above and beyond in helping us deal with some minor weather issues, and they have a great eye for decor! Trust me, things will go wrong on the big day but I did not even have to stress because of how incredibly talented, thoughtful, and experienced Albert and his staff are. A million times thank you for making our big day so special!!
Our wedding at Abbott Manor was absolutely perfect! Just kidding, of course a few things went wrong with outside vendors, but what truly made our wedding amazing was this venue and its owners, Albert and Michele Abbott. My now husband and I are small business owners and as such can honestly understand and appreciate the kind of care you receive from a family operated business or venue. Albert was available to me throughout the entire process, day or night (even when I had some overwhelming minor freak outs!) Albert and his wife Michele met with me multiple times to go over all of the tiny details of our wedding to make it as flawless as possible, and it really was. Aside from the obvious beauty of the venue (which goes from whimsical by day to enchanted by night) it has such an intimate feel. Choosing the one place you will spend that one special day can be very difficult, trust me, my poor husband had to venue shop with me for months, but once we walked in and met the owners and took in the captivating atmosphere, it was as simple as setting the date. And here's a bonus: it was cheaper than any venue around and had everything and more. And icing on the cake, our photographer, Gabe and Brit, whom came with the venue were incredible!!! All in all, congrats on your engagement, and we highly recommend this venue for your special day!
Words don't even begin to describe how great this venue is. It's your own enchanted garden and Albert and Michelle gave me the wedding of my dreams . They were so organized, helpful and made me feel at ease through the whole process. Every single vendor I had hired told me how impressed they were with all the work Albert and his team do for the bride and groom! I know it seems like it's too good to be true but it's not; my now husband actually asked Albert "what is the catch" the first time we went out there.
We had one crazy wedding planning process, change of careers, my dad passed away, and our DJ that we had hired through his preferred vendors list had passed! Albert and his team did everything to make sure the day went on to be a huge success. They really pride themselves on their reputation and the work they do themselves and it shows!!! Everyone always asks "so what went wrong?" Since there is always something. I can honestly say that thanks to this amazing venue and alberts team... the day was perfect! Also the property is even more beautiful in person (I know it's hard for to believe)
The full days use of the venue is something you and your guests can't put a price on, with such a competive price having triple the amount of time for your big day is a plus. I'll end my review with this testament of their service; I was a bit tipsy at the end of the night and my husband asked Albert to put aside two of the beers I favor. I never got to them and two days later when we went to pick up the decor... he had them stored on ice! We have made friends for life and I couldn't have been happier we were married at Abbott Manor on the 10/2/16
We heard about Abbott Manor through a friend. They told us we would fall in love with the venue the minute we saw it and they were right!! The day after we toured the venue (and only the second place we saw) we decided it was the place for us. Albert and Michelle were wonderful during the whole process. They gave amazing recommendations for vendors, gave us advice, and helped create our perfect day. If we ever had a question or concern, we simply would reach out to them and the question was answered/ concern was resolved. They truly care about your special day and your vision and work very hard to achieve that. Everything about this experience was amazing and we wouldn't change a thing. We would recommend Abbott Manor to anybody looking for a personalized, affordable, and beautiful wedding day.
Albert's organization and management of our wedding was fantastic. The property is beautfiful and we had many compliments from our guests. Albert was an excellent guide to having a successful wedding, any question we had he had a solution.
Abbott Manor was quite simply the best decision I made about our wedding! Albert, Michelle and their team were all so awesome. My day was just as perfect as I imagined. Best of all STRESS FREE! Albert was so organized and helpful. I without a doubt will ALWAYS say yes, to there venue and services.
Our wedding turned out amazing! Albert and his staff were awesome and we couldn't have had the experience we did with them! I wouldn't have changed anything.
Abbott Manor is a beautiful and lush garden setting in the middle of the vineyards of Temecula. There are walkways bounded by greenery and waterways, a pretty gazebo for dancing, and a lovely covered patio for eating. Seriously beautiful. The venue allows outside food and drink (both alcohol and regular, bottles or kegs) while also providing bartenders. Please note - it is a soft bar (wine/sparkling/beer) only with the exception of two signature drinks (within drink dispensers) of your choice. You'll also need to provide your own plates, cutlery, napkins, and glasses if your caterer doesn't include it with their food. But it's Albert and Michele, the couple that runs Abbott Manor, that makes it stand out from the rest. Fun fact - the first wedding at this site was theirs :). They are above and beyond the reason that we had such an amazing wedding and one true to us. Both of them are very friendly, very nice people who are also very upfront and helpful with everything. They gave us great advice and suggestions on how to handle food truck logistics, wedding decor ideas, and what to look for (and watch out for) in vendors/sites - just in our first meeting. There was no "hard-sell" and they listed out exactly what was included in their flat fee rate. At this time, the fee included day of photography + engagement photo, use of the site for rehearsal the week of, wedding coordination services, set up/tear down (they even pack your car for you at the end of the night), bartending/bussing, both a bride AND groom suite, and use of the site on your wedding day from noon til 10 pm. Not to mention, they offer up any decorations, vases, etc that they have if you'd like to borrow them for your wedding day decor. They were incredibly responsive, had a great eye for details, and (honestly) kept us on track so we could just relax in the lead up to the wedding. It was truly a pleasure to work with them.
I cannot recommend this venue enough! Albert (the owner and coordinator) is absolutely amazing and helped so much throughout our planning process. He made sure things went smoothly and that everything was perfect on our wedding day. Abbott Manor is absolutely beautiful and we found it to be the perfect setting for our wedding. It is filled with flowers, ponds, and greenery! So beautiful! Albert will make sure your wedding is exactly what you have dreamed of and he will make sure he gives you options that fit your budget. Our wedding was perfect thanks to this amazing venue and Albert!

I was a bridesmaid for my best friends wedding who had it at Abbott. It was beautiful and Albert was very accommodating , easy to work with and makes sure the day runs smoothly. I knew if I ever got married I wanted this to be my venue. Fast forward to March 2016 and of course had my wedding at Abbott Manor. The big day went very smoothly thanks to Albert, he makes the hectic wedding planning experience a breeze and is always available to change ideas or add things . He helps you design, decorate to every detail . My family was was blown away . Thank you Abbott family for such a beautiful venue, friendly staff and making my day perfect!
We used Abbott Manor for our daughter's wedding and it was the perfect venue! Albert and Michelle were amazing through the entire process from the first planning meeting to the last minute of the wedding. They had so many great ideas and were so professional, they are definitely the real thing!!! Worth every penny.
I give Abbott Manor an A+++. I am just sad that I don't have another Daughter so we could use their venue again. You can be assured that you will have a great experience with wonderful memories.
Thanks Albert, Michelle and team for making Amy & Shiloh's wedding exactly what they wanted and more. We hope to remain friends in the future.
I LOVED working with Albert and his wife, Michele. They were so helpful in many ways. Leading up to our wedding day, we visited multiple times and Albert always greeted us and answered all our questions. The week of the wedding, there was a threat of rain and Albert already had two plans in motion- one for rain and one for no rain. The morning of the wedding, they set up for no rain; by the afternoon, it was raining. Albert and the staff quickly went into plan b before the guests arrived.Not once did I stress about the last minute changes since we already had discussed the plans ahead of time. I knew Albert had everything under control and I had total and complete trust in him. During the wedding, the staff was great- they had everything running like a gem! All my guests were truly impressed that the staff was able to make so many last minute changes due to the weather and the fact that they just do an amazing job. Overall, even with the rain, I could not have asked for a more perfect day and that is in large part to Albert and his staff- thank you!!
I cannot think of one complaint about this venue. They were very adaptive and willing to do whatever they could to make our day special. There was never a moment where we felt like they were too busy or did not care about our special day. They went above and beyond to make sure everything went smoothly. The staff were very professional and 100% available from the day we decided Abbott Manor. Albert and his wife made the experience so much smoother and we were so appreciative of everything they did. There was never a "oh no we can't do that", it was always "how can we make that work". Everything we could have asked for in a wedding venue and more! The venue is gorgeous!! They take pride in their space and it shows.
We loved that this place did not try to nickel and dime us. What you see is what you get. If he has it, you can use it! (unlike some places that charge 100 extra for this and for that). Totally worth the price and more! I can't say enough how thankful we were for all of the work and pride they took in making our day so special!
We cannot thank Albert and Michelle enough for making our day PERFECT!! Literally, NOTHING went wrong! Albert has a plan for everything and backup plans just in case. Every vendor he recommended was way less expensive than the others we had found ourselves. Every vendor he recommended that we used (Photographer-Gabe and Britt, DJ-Pacific Entertainment, Caterer-Rocky Mountain Catering, Florist-The Family Tree Florist, Officiant-Paul Frye) was so responsive, friendly, professional and comfortable in their surroundings, after having worked there before. Because of all of the beautiful gardens and flowers, we hardly had any additional flowers, he had on hand, for no extra cost, so many possible centerpiece items, that we did not have to pay very much for the additional decorations we added, the photography was amazing, we love Gabe and Britt and the price INCLUDES the photography and ALL the digital copies! No one can believe how inexpensive his costs were, AND that they included the photographer, decorations, his services as wedding coordinator, Michelle as the bartender . . . ! He was so helpful during the entire year of wedding planning, he responded immediately and had so many helpful ideas for saving money, while making my wedding more beautiful than I could have imagined! He is so good at being a coordinator, we did not have to make any decisions that day! Everything went smoothly and perfectly. When the party was over, there was NOTHING to be cleaned up, loaded up, or put away, because he and his staff and quietly, subtlely put everything away and loaded our cars with the extras, gifts, cards, cake, decorations and everything else. We gathered our belongings from the Bride's and Groom's rooms and were ready to leave! The Bride's and Groom's rooms were wonderful! We had 6 people getting hair and makeup done, it was roomy, comfortable and pretty. There were places to hang up all our dresses at the rehearsal the night before, and then we didn't even need to bring them that day. He spent hours going over their "script" of questions weeks before the ceremony so we knew exactly what to think about, what to expect, what to bring, and reminded us of everything we needed to do. Because of his script and list, we remembered everything! I cannot rave enough about them, they are amazing and so good at what they do. I highly, highly recommend them.

Words can't describe how amazing Abbott Manor truly is. We stumbled across this venue online while wedding planning and I'm so glad we took the time to visit the venue and meet with Albert, the owner. Photos of Abbott Manor are gorgeous but seeing it in person will take your breath away. Albert and Michele, the owners will become your wedding coordinators/planners and are the best at what they do. Wedding planning was so easy with their help and expert advice, and they made the day of our wedding perfect.
At Abbott Manor you won't have to worry about additional costs, hidden charges, etc. Almost everything is included in the cost of the venue (chairs, tables, servers, bartenders, etc.) and Albert will do his best to help you save money on outside costs by sharing his wealth of knowledge in the wedding industry. He not only recommended excellent vendors but also helped us with decor, alcohol pricing, local hotels, etc.
Albert and Michele help plan your wedding to every last detail, leaving the day of the wedding stress free and enjoyable.
Abbott Manor gave me my dream wedding and I am so thankful to Albert, Michele and the rest of the Abbott Manor staff.
We held our wedding at Abbott Manor in October 2015. Everything went so smoothly because of Albert Abbott, the property owner and wedding coordinator. We picked Abbott Manor because the property was beautiful, the price was within our budget, and we were able to bring in our own vendors and alcohol. Albert was very easy to work with. He always replied back to texts, phone calls, or emails. There is too many good things to say about Abbott Manor, Albert, and the property. From initial visit, to booking, to numerous meeting, and the big day... it all was so easy and painless.
George and Miranda you are heaven sent. From the engagement photos to the wedding photos , we couldn't have asked for better photographers. The first time we met them we felt like we knew each other for years because they were so friendly and welcoming. There were no hidden fees for the The first time we met them we felt like we knew each other for years because they were so friendly and welcoming. There were no hidden fees when it was time to make purchases for the pictures. All of our pictures were so great that it is taking us forever to pick the best ones!!!!! Please check them out. You won't be disappointed.
When my new husband and I were searching for the perfect venue that fit within our budget, we toured a lot of different places. This venue, from the moment we stepped in was not only absolutely stunning, but exactly what we had in mind for an outdoor wedding. Albert is the best! He coordinated everything, made sure everything ran smoothly and was very accommodating to our hopes and dreams of the perfect wedding. We made our own decor, and he set everything up for us in advance so we didn't have to worry about a thing! The site itself is like stepping into another world. Driving through the Temecula wine country is beautiful in and of itself, but the gardens at the Abbott Manor are lush, interesting and green with gorgeous flowers and an abundance of trees. We loved it, and on our big day, we got so many compliments on the beauty of our venue. Highly recommend!
We got married at Abbott Manor a few months back (May 2014), and after just attending our first wedding since our own, we felt more compelled than ever to write a review.
From the very first meeting to the end of our wedding day, we could not have been more happy with Abbott Manor as a venue and Albert as a coordinator and his entire staff. He treated us like our wedding day was the most important thing he had to deal with.
Albert is extremely helpful in every step of the wedding planning. I highly recommend using him as a resource for recommendations for DJs, caterers, etc. It cuts so much stress and time out. He has great ideas and advise for every aspect of the planning, especially when you are trying to save money.
The actual wedding day was absolutely perfect and 99% of that is owed to Albert and his staff. Everything ran perfectly smooth and on time. It was such a busy day but as the bride and groom we really didn't have to think about anything because it was already taken care of.
Our guests still compliment us on how gorgeous the venue and wedding was. Our pictures turned out so beautifully, partially because of our photographer, but also because the grounds of Abbott Manor are so beautiful. I (the bride) love that it is outdoors but does not have that "backyard" feel and that we weren't stuck to just a musty old banquet hall somewhere.
Abbott Manor wasn't the cheapest venue we found, BUT the price includes so much. Albert's coordination and the staff's services alone were priceless. The location was perfect and exactly what we were picturing. It helps that there aren't hidden fees for champagne pours and cake cutting. And Abbott Manor doesn't dictate every detail of your wedding, so there are still a TON of ways to cut corners on costs (i.e, caterer, decorations, etc). Truthfully, if we could do it all again, we wouldn't look anywhere else but Abbott Manor. The amount you pay for the venue is seriously an extremely fair price for what you get and you honestly get what you pay for... we could not be anymore happier with Abbott Manor hosting our wedding day. HIGHLY recommended!
From the moment we saw the venue, we knew this would be the place we'd have our wedding. The owner was very informative, professional, and paid attention to the needs of both bride AND groom. As our wedding coordinator as well, he helped us find affordable options for the details of the wedding, was prompt with email correspondence, and with the help of his staff we were very happy with how everything turned out on the day of our wedding. The venue is absolutely gorgeous and it's obvious he takes care of his clients as he does his property. We recommend this 100%.
I love Abbott Manor and all the staff there!!! They were amazing to work with expecially Albert, He helped with all my wedding planning questions and saved me tons of money by helping me pick some cheaper vendors!! The grounds at this venue are georgous as well, my pictures turned out beautiful thanks to all the hard work Albert puts into making his place look wonderful!!!! Albert and his family made my day perfect and I couldn't be more happy with the way my day turned out!
The Abbott family goes above and beyond to help you with planning. the venue is so beautiful without any decorations. the evening time is beautiful as the little white lights glow throughout the venue. My family and friends loved it here too. they set up and take down and even pack your car for you. you or your family can just enjoy the whole day
Everyone there was wonderful and I worried about nothing the whole night!
A few other friends got married around the same time as me and I saw them go through some challenges with their venues. I was a little worried about how my experience would go but Abbott Manor took such good care of me that I had no concerns at all. From the first day I visited Abbott Manor to the day of my wedding, Albert Abbott was nothing but helpful. He answered every crazy question, responded to all of my e-mails in a timely manner, and was always happy to meet me on the grounds whenever I asked to stop by. His wife Michele took care of my cake - which was delicious, beautiful, and affordable - and that gave me one less thing to worry about. The day of the wedding was orchestrated by Albert and his family. Everything looked beautiful and ran smoothly and I wasn't stressed at all (even though our caterer totally blew it). The staff at Abbott Manor are truely industry porfessionals and I would recommend this venue to everyone!
Albert and his family made us feel like family. They did so much to make our day perfect and run smoothly. The venue is so beautiful and in a great area. We ABSOLUTELY could NOT have asked for anything better!
I got married almost a year ago at Abbott Manor. It was perfect. Albert, the gentelman in charge is very friendly, easy to work with, works with you too ensure that your day turns out perfect. I highly reccomend this as your venue during the spring with blooming flowers and green vines it gorgeous. It has a quaint dressing room for both the men and the ladies which was a plus for us.
He is very helpful in planning and setting up of everything.
Plus he offers an arrray of fake flowers, vases, mirrors, beads, etc etc to make your center pieces if you aren't wanting to use fresh flowers. If you go that route and show him what you want they assemble them all for you and do all the setup and breakdown. I used the fake flowers and you couldnt tell and less you were super close or knew, turned out great!!
I was married at Abbott Manor in Sept, 2011. I was so lucky that a friend suggested this place, we were getting bumbed out shopping for venues and could not find a place to fit our budget. The owner Albert worked with us from day one and made me feel very comfortable. My family wont stop takling about the great time they had and that makes my husbond and I so happy. Actually several of our family had already been there for other weddings before. If you are looking for a unique place for your wedding, you have got to check them out. Some of our pics are even up at their site.
Thank you Albert and the Abbott Family!

While spending a lot of time online shopping for the PERFECT venue, I got the best advice from a friend, "You'll know it's the one when you see it." After seeing many venues from Riverside County all the way down to San Diego County, Abbott Manor (Temecula, Ca) was THE ONE. Abbott Manor is about 10 minutes from the freeway and is located in Temecula's Wine Country. Just that drive through the vineyards was amazing. When I parked in front of Abbott Manor, Albert (owner) greeted me to take me on a tour of his venue. The entrance is a beautiful walkway through tall trees, flowers and small lights. After walking through the walk way, we walked over a small bridge and into the venue itself. Just from that spot you can see the waterfall, the dining area and the alter. There was plenty of green grass and flowers everywhere you looked. If you are looking for a garden wedding then this is the place. Albert then gave me a tour of the venue. Albert is not only the owner of this property/venue, he also does the landscaping/maintenance. I found that he being so hands on with the property made it more hassle-free for us because we didn't have to communicate with multiple. Abbott Manor's prices were very reasonable and it was great that Albert worked very closely with many vendors so he was able to get us good deals. We actually used the DJ he suggested. His wife also made our cake which was absolutely amazing! Albert is so knowledgeable about wedding planning which showed through his attention to detail. Albert worked with me like a wedding planner. He helped keep me on time with my planning, he helped me with the other vendors and he even helped me design my centerpieces. Abbott Manor already had a variety of vases and other items that we were able to incorporate into our centerpieces. As my bridal party and I arrived at the venue to get ready, Albert and his team were putting the final touched on Abbott Manor for my special day. (Of course I didn't see the guests arrive, but they told me later that they were blown away how beautiful Abbott Manor was.) As the evening continued, I was able to completely enjoy my wedding because Albert took care of all the behind-the-scenes things. As the wedding came to an end, my guests complimented me on the venue, the service and the great energy. Before I left, Albert already had my car packed with my gifts. Overall, Abbott Manor was amazing! Between the breath taking scenery and the service, I defiantly recommend Abbott Manor to everyone.
Albert was such a great help leading up to the day & the day of! I couldn't be more happy with the services provided by Abbott Manor. I would definitely recommend them to future brides :)
Went to view this venue, Albert Abbott was on top making sure he called to confirm and gave out directions. It's located between vinyards so it's open but it's gorgeous! The prices are great and it even includes centerpieces and silk floral decorations. There is a pond with a waterfall and they are in the process of having the pond extend to go under the bridge you walk on to get to the venue. There is a patio and twinkling lights everywhere. We are still looking at other venues before making a decision but this is on our yes list.
