Black Oak Mountain Vineyards

parison. Not only is this place beautiful, but the people that work here are wonderful. Jane communicates excellently and is with you 100% of the way, and she has an amazing team behind her. The staff is wonderful and makes sure that everything is just how you imagined on your special day. I would recommend Black Oak Mountain Vineyards to anyone in a heartbeat and without hesitation! Thank you BOMV! We had the most amazing day!

ur guests and keep them comfortable with the heat on. This venue is truly magical and breathtaking, after we toured this venue we knew we didn’t need to look anywhere else and nowhere else would compare. Jane was wonderful and helpful during the tour and just as great to work with throughout the planning process. I loved that they had the farmhouse tables I always dreamed of! The staff did a wonderful job setting up the ceremony and reception tables and chairs as requested. Everyone that we encountered and worked with was kind and worked with us to ensure our day was perfect. It is truly a beautiful wedding venue site with amazing views!

y we had our wedding there was going to be pg&e rolling black outs. They reassured me that the generator would power everything in the house. This happened October 25,2020 and I was so disturbed by this experience I am finally writing this. My caterers were trying to cook in the dark because there were no lights for them. There were no lights for my tables outside that were set up for the reception. One of the TWO bathrooms was like by damn candles. The workers there didn’t care about our wedding and barely gave us any direction once the weather changed and they couldn’t even fully power the venue anymore. When I wrote them an email after about how heart broken I was, the woman gaslit me, made fun of our wedding.

viding a place to celebrate such a happy occasion!!!

equally incredible. They reply quickly, take the time to brainstorm with you, are willing to be flexible and accommodate most any request within their means and made us feel like celebrities for a day. There is no more important decision than your venue- I’m promising, look no further!

l, responsive, and trustworthy. We were also allowed to take engagement photos at the venue and our photos turned out more beautiful than I imagined (the views are seriously the best). I would recommend this venue to anyone.

a deposit back if something doesn’t work out, she responded “It says on the contracts that deposits are non refundable, but we like to work with our clients, because we know how hard things are on everyone right now. If we can reschedule your date, and we haven’t paid for anything yet, you can get a refund.” Wow! How kind and reasonable, right? Not so fast. We booked our date almost 14 months ahead of time and gave our deposit. Once we started looking at their vendors and wedding planners, we saw that they are way more expensive than almost anywhere else. So, with over a year to spare, and only three weeks after we put down our deposit, we contacted them and asked to cancel. After a few emails of them saying they may do a partial refund, they pulled a Willy Wonka and just said you get nothing. They are keeping our deposit with over 13 months from the day we chose, saying they “may not find someone” to book that date again. Really? Not one couple in over a year would come and choose that date on a weekend in May? In the same email, Shelly (the estate manager) admits they are keeping our money just because they can even though she wrote “I know that we can probably re-book your dates…” I’m sure someone will post a bs “Sorry if you feel mislead” in response to this, like the other review with the same experience. However, if the venue doesn’t want to continue to receive bad reviews, perhaps changing your business plan on not allowing false advertising be your go-to to receive business would be a good place to start. For the price that they charged for a Sunday wedding and 1 night in the house (no food, bartenders, servers, wedding coordinator, etc.), we booked another venue that is way nicer and includes everything for a wedding, with the exception of photographers, flowers and a DJ. Plus the price includes hotel stay for over half of our guests, and breakfast the next morning. Black Oak said they were new to the wedding business. Clearly.

e and she was so responsive, helpful and promptly got back to all my tedious questions! This really took the stress off the planning and what more can I bride ask for! Black Oak has a very reliable team, they showed that they were happy to have us there and were so flexible and helpful up until and on the wedding day. They have an icredible team setting up the tables, chairs, etc. for reception and ceremony - everything had been set up exactly like we discussed with Jane on our planning meeting, and done by the time we arrived to get ready at the beautiful estate. My vendors loved working with the Black Oak team as well! We can't say enough good words, this was truly a dream come true and the Black Oak team made this possible!

all of my guest said it was the BEST wedding they’ve ever been to. The staff couldn’t have been more down to earth and helpful and the options of views and styles are endless. I feel so blessed to have had my wedding here and would recommend it a thousand times over!

o our every need. The day could not possibly have been anymore perfect. You simply cannot go wrong with this venue and their team. Thank you SO much Black Oak, we appreciate all your help on our big day!

ed as excited as we were to have this wedding. We appreciated the attention to details, e.g. cleaning cobwebs on the outside of the barn, sweeping, dusting and just making sure all details were as they promised. The weather was warm for the ceremony (5:30 pm in August) but the umbrellas definitely helped to cut the heat for the guests. By the time the ceremony began, the sun had fallen behind the hill and there was a nice breeze, shade and a beautiful sunset for the reception. All the feedback I received from family and friends was positive and complimentary. The pictures were beyond stunning! We would highly recommend this site for any special event you are planning.

ks the vineyards and rolling sierra foothills. The area is beautiful and serene. There is a calmness in the air that makes Black Oak a very magical place to be. Very relaxing and awe inspiring in every direction. One of my favorite parts of the Estate is the outdoor shower with living walls. Absolutely nothing like it!

cancelled and am now being refused my deposit. Brad, the owner, says that he is not issuing refunds to anyone cancelling their dates. BEWARE, you will lose your deposit. STAY AWAY from this venue. They are unprofessional thieves.
