Palm Event Center in the Vineyard

on went by so smoothly with the help of the included planning team, day-of coordinators and an excellent roster of preferred vendors. We brought in outside caterers, but used the Palm for appetizers and they were absolutely delicious. Overall, we knew the Palm was our spot the moment we toured it and were so elated to see our vision for our big day come through there. Highly recommend

d wedding venues on Yelp (via Daily Meal). Don't do anymore research if you're looking for an organized, beautiful, breath-taking venue,. We booked our wedding on a Thursday evening and from the day we put down our deposit, we were treated like royalty. Our coordinator, Genevieve, (shout-out to the most amazing person and best coordinator in the world!!), was organized, friendly, funny, kind and relatable. We met on Zoom for our check-ins, so no need to travel to Pleasanton. Then we had our FABULOUS food and wine tasting at the venue. Let me just say - all our our guests RAVED about their dishes on the day of the wedding. They couldn't say enough of how delicious, fresh, and wonderful their meal was. Then we treated our guests with a late night snack - pizza! It was truly perfect. Palm Event offers open bar, with a full well. We also designed signature cocktails and brought cases of Red Bull for our guests. Whenever we had questions, the team responded within 24 hours and were flexible about decor and desserts. All vendors have to provide insurance and we also bought couple's wedding insurance for the day of. Our rehearsal went without any hitches and Genevieve adjusted quickly and thoughtfully! She honestly made our day so enjoyable and stress-free. On the day of the wedding, there were some details that I wanted to change last minute with the decor and the team quickly adjusted to make our day perfect. I cannot recommend their team and kitchen staff enough! The best moments of our experience were high-quality service from the staff, beautifully maintained venue and winery (I mean the palm tree entrance itself is WOW), and the amazing food and drinks! Thank you Palm Event for making our wedding dreams come true.

their game and made planning so much easier. We couldn't have asked for a better venue manager or day-of coordinator. Not to mention, all except for one of our vendors came from their preferred list. If you want a venue and a team that will take care of you, especially for an occasion as important as your Big Day, you will not be disappointed. Have peace of mind knowing that this is practically an all-inclusive venue with catering and a day-of coordinator. You can hold both your ceremony and reception in one place with options of indoor and/or outdoor. In-house wedding cakes are also an option. Their food, dessert, and beverages are top notch as is their service. Do not hesitate for one second to reach out to them. You will be so happy that you did.

e and I got engaged in December 2020 in the thick of the COVID pandemic and began looking for a venue in March 2021. We saw that the Palm Event Center (and its sister site, Casa Real), were very popular amongst wedding sites and decided to give it a try. The team was very responsive and we were able to book a tour relatively quickly. The tour was fantastic and it seemed that they really knew what they were doing. Because many weddings were delayed, there was very little availability, and so we had to pull the trigger on a date nearly 12 months in advance. Once we reserved the date, it was fairly smooth sailing from there. The team was very responsive and helpful in guiding us to what we needed to do. In fact, they even helped push one of our vendors when we felt like we weren't getting the right communication and support required to move forward. One great thing that is included with the package is a "day-of" wedding coordinator. Tammy Cheng was assigned to us and worked with us for several weeks before our actual wedding day. She helped get us the right information and guided a lot of our planning to make sure that we were prepared for the day. Tammy ran the rehearsal, which was the day before our wedding, and both ourselves and our pastor was so impressed. She took charge and explained exactly what we needed to do, how to do it, and when we needed to do it. The rehearsal was incredibly quick and efficient, and we felt very well prepared for the big day. Finally, on wedding day, we couldn't have asked for a better coordinator. She had everything out exactly as we wanted it, and was able to corral all of our guests for the various changes in the day (ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, extras, etc). We felt no stress during our entire day and were able to enjoy our wedding. One downside about this venue as a whole is that it is a little pricey, and there are certain vendors that are required. They have some pretty aggressive minimums for the weekend, with Saturday being the highest price. We opted to have our wedding on Sunday, and so while we did have some lower minimums, we found that many of our guests had to leave early for school/work/travel. Regardless, we would still highly recommend the Palm and Tammy Cheng to any new couples looking to get married here!

nator Jasmyn effectively managed the day and was warm, helpful and very responsive throughout the process. She and the team rolled with last minute guest changes, and every single little detail we shared about our preferences was executed perfectly. We could not have picked a better venue and team are so grateful for the memories we will have at the Palm Event Center!

ng, to the meetings leading up to our wedding, we were so impressed with the experience and service from everyone at Palm that we knew we and the guests would be taken care of on the actual day of during our wedding. My husband and I are foodies so we were initially hesitant with the in-house catering, but we couldn't be happier with the delicious food options and add-ons (we opted for the churro and ramen bar!) they had to offer, and we got so many compliments on it. Palm Event Center is a well-ironed machine...they helped guide our timeline and provided insight whenever they could - after all, they knew their venue best and helped to make our day smooth and seamless. You can't go wrong with Palm Event Center. Thank you for making our day so amazing!

genuine care to make sure everything ran smoothly leading up to and during our wedding day. The venue itself is absolutely stunning. In May, the vineyards and gardens are blooming on the grounds. We decided to add additional decor inside through a recommended vendor and both teams blew us away. We're recommending both Palm and Casa to all our friends/family recently engaged.

tee, especially Genevieve and Nicole, were amazing!! They made the planning process so easy for us, and they were so organized. We couldn’t have asked for anything better. If you are thinking about having your wedding, or a big party, at the Palm Event Center, you should definitely do it. You will not regret it. Best venue ever!!

e food is delicious and all of our guests raved about how incredible the short rib tasted. Also, the ambience and property is a beautiful place for a wedding. We always knew we wanted to have an indoor ceremony and the estate room was exactly what we were looking for! There’s not enough words to describe how amazing this venue is! I highly recommend having your wedding at the Palm if you want an unforgettable and seamless experience!

zed and kept us on our feet through the whole process. Our whole experience from booking the venue to the day of had been wonderful. The whole team at Palm was very professional and thoughtful. We especially loved the champagne and charcuterie board for our bridal suite on the day. Thank you very much to everyone at Palm for making our day special!

ey have their stuff together. All the staff were very friendly and accommodating. I loved the fact that they had a day-of wedding coordinator included in their package that was super helpful in preparing for our special day! On the day of, as hectic as weddings are, the staff and wedding coordinator were all on point in keeping me and the bridal party on schedule & taken care of. I always appreciated the staff for always answering my emails in a timely manner and they never seemed to be too bothered by my many emails and questions. Also, the ambiance of the venue was beautiful & my guests complimented how beautiful the place was. Their food is also super good!

h an outdoor courtyard with strung lights. All the staff we worked with there were great. Alyssa Hickerson, our wedding coordinator, was very knowledgeable and made sure the entire day went by smoothly! The food was incredible! We haven't stopped hearing about how our wedding had the best wedding food! We were in heaven at our food tasting. It was on the higher end of our budget but don't regret spending the money. It was well worth it.

ensure we could still have some semblance of the wedding we had hoped for. Their questionnaire really helped us prepare ahead of time and Casey was amazing with walking us through what she needed from us, what to expect, our options, answered all of our questions and more. I am in awe of her and her calm demeanor through everything. They have the dream team, including their phenomenal chef and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. You all are rockstars!

ding what comes included, especially in comparison to many other venues in the area. Jessica was our Event Coordinator and she was wonderful to work with. She had so many great suggestions, was so organized, and seemed to really listen and respect our needs. She is a true professionals and will be sure you haven't forgotten anything! The venue itself is beautiful and in my opinion requires almost nothing else brought in. The wine barrels with tea lights and uplighting that surrounded the room made the space feel romantic and intimate, the garden area is well kept and the vineyard is beautiful to look out on. Most of all the food is AMAZING. My husband and I were a bit nervous that the caterer came included with the venue as we couldn't truly test them out before signing the contract - but do not be concerned! The number of guests who came up to us to tell us it was the best food they'd ever had at a wedding cannot be understated. The team really makes you feel special throughout the entire process leading up to the wedding. There were several vendor events to help connect you with local vendors and the tasting they put on was absolutely amazing. You won't go wrong in picking the Palm Event Center!

ess about anything going into the day! The Palm Event center crew is AMAZING! And the venue is gorgeous inside and out!

your vision to light. They are all so experienced in the industry and are extremely reliable. Thanks so much for making our wedding day truly amazing.

eam was extremely helpful and guided us through the process. Literally if you fill out the planning documents they give you, it’ll guide you through everything you have to do for your wedding. For our wedding we had the pleasure of working with Genevieve as our day of coordinator and she was so sweet and professional! Aside from the the beauty of the venue, the food here is AMAZING. So many of our guests complimented the food and especially the Mac and Cheese that complimented their meal so know that it does not disappoint. Also, their list of preferred vendors is so robust and full of other great vendors that we used for our wedding. Overall, we are so glad to have chosen PEC for our wedding!

ors, the food tasting (which is an event all on its own), and setting us up with our day of coordinator, Casey. Casey was amazing, organized, and as our bridal party put it "a bad ass!" The venue is gorgeous, their preferred vendor list is amazing, the food was delicious, what else is there to say? We recommend this venue and this group of people to work a million times over. We just hope we get invited to another wedding here so we can enjoy the magic all over again!

he staff at the Palm for making the process so seamless. They think of EVERY detail and are SO responsive and communicative. They are willing to customize so many different details to bring your exact vision to life. We planned the wedding while living abroad and Jade, Casey, and Jessica were the reason we were able to make it work. They were available by phone and email, they were super responsive to our questions and requests, and they were proactive about communicating deadlines. Even our other vendors had good things to say about the team and the venue at Palm Event Center. Jessica was our day-of coordinator and I can't say enough about how fabulous she was. It is an incredible venue but what really set apart the venue was the attentive and professional staff. Thank you Jessica, Jade and Casey!

k it all in stride and handled it amazingly. Jenny especially gets so much praise for handling the night so smoothly. Thank you again for an unforgettable evening.

as a couple was Rubino Estates, which is the property that the Palm sits on). Once we toured the facility, we were instantly sold. Their in-house team is responsive and super easy to work with. We had the pleasure of working with Jenny for our wedding day, but got to know all the women throughout the process and you can't go wrong with any of them! The way they do their tastings is so incredible - all the couples getting married in your season come together to try everything on the menu and make their selections. It not only gives you the chance to pick your food, but you also get the hidden benefit of connecting with other couples and swapping ideas. The personalized planning sessions really help ensure you've gotten everything covered, and they're always available to answer questions. Then the actual wedding day. It could not have gone off more smoothly. The room was decorated to perfection (of course other vendors helped here as well, but it was overseen by the Palm, and could not have been more gorgeous). The food was all incredibly delicious, and all of the servers ensured it was gotten out in a timely manner. The bar staff was efficient and friendly. Everyone was just super on-it! I can't give enough rave reviews to the Palm, and truly wish I could have an exact repeat of my wedding day at minimum once a year. Highly recommend to anyone venue-hunting!

is what we chose). The customer service is the best. They gave me multiple tours, as I wanted to bring family members to see it after I toured with my fiancé. Jessica, who gave us the tour, is so sweet and helpful! She responds quickly if you email her. Jade, the manager, was also helpful, amazing and quick to respond! Any questions we had were answered right away. They are VERY organized and professional. They are strict in their vendor policies. All vendors must be approved ahead of time. It wasn't a problem though, they approved all of our vendors in a timely manner. They sent us a cute little USB drive to us in the mail (inside a wine cork) with all of the forms we had to fill out, photo examples, vendor lists, menus, etc. They also included a free wine tasting for you and your husband. The venue is pricey, but is totally worth it for what is included! We saw some really old/nasty venues that were similarly priced and less was included! 4 and a half hours of open bar is included! We did not see that at one other venue! They have a few menu options, with upgrades if you would like. They have vegetarian and vegan options as well. The couples food tasting night was amazing as well. Each of you got practically full portions of everything on the menu! So much food! They were so generous portion-wise. And the food is so good! The best I have ever had a a wedding. It was also nice to meet other couples that were getting married there. If you get married in the winter, you get lots of freebies like outdoor lighting, mulled wine and cider, free uplighting inside, etc. We were so glad to have chosen to get married in January! If you choose a weekday or a Sunday, you also get a much better price than on a Saturday. They book very quickly, so make sure you go months in advance. A year if possible! The ONLY complaint we had is they don't have a place for the groom and his groomsman to stay before the wedding. There is a room for the women to get ready which is great. They have a little lounge behind a curtain that would be great for the men, but they charge extra for that room. But this wasn't a big deal. The guys just came to the venue ready and they hung around the bar area before the wedding. The workers did a good job of keeping my fiancé from seeing me ahead of time. We also opted for the day of wedding planner that they provided and she was amazing. A life saver! Definitely worth the add on. We had Casey as our planner. Again, she was kind, professional, organized and quick to respond. After meeting with her we felt at ease. She helped us make a timeline for the day of, and she helped to make sure we kept to that timeline. She worked with the vendors on the wedding day, so we had nothing to worry about. She will help with ANYTHING you might need on the wedding day. She was very clear and informative at the rehearsal as well. I DEFINITELY recommend the Palm Event Center for your dream wedding!

erfect, the food (served apps, reception meals, AND late night snacks - french fry bar & pizza station) was beyond delicious and the service was top notch! We had some dietary restrictions, and PEC gladly accommodated our needs with no questions asked. Our guests are STILL raving about everything from that day. We were/still are obsessed with the entire PEC team (special shoutout to Jenny, Jade, & Jessica). They all were so patient in answering every single question we had with the most knowledgeable and helpful answers. Jenny was our day-of-coordinator and that woman can do no wrong!! Superwoman? Rockstar? Goddess? Nothing can compare. I can go on forever on how seamless she made my big day seem. All I had to do was show up and she did all the work for me. I honestly can't speak more positive words for Jenny & the PEC team. Pretty sure they are a big reason I had the most perfect day of my life.

ere always so sweet and helpful with any questions I had. On my rehearsal day, we had Jessica coordinating the rehearsal and she was awesome! I had a few people running late and she was so patient and kind about the situation. Once we started, she answered all of our questions even before I asked them which was so great! On my wedding day, my coordinator was Casey and gosh... she was just perfect! She was on top of everything and made not only myself but my wedding party feel so comfortable! I'm still on cloud nine about my wedding day and how perfect everything was. Thank you so much to all the girls, Jessica and Casey for all of your help and for making my wedding day the best day of my life! :)

e wedding! I was so grateful to her and the staff for handling all the details and then packing up our wedding so we could pick up our things the next day!
