Renault Winery helped me create the perfect wedding. I couldn't have been happier with every interaction I had with the Renault team from my first tour, through the entirety of the wedding planning process, to the wedding day itself. Zeynep who lead my tour and has helped me throughout the planning process is SPECTACULAR -- so responsive, helpful, and kind. I can say the same for the whole Renault Team -- all of the bartenders, the restaurant staff, everyone was super attentive. I had my wedding ceremony, reception, and rehearsal dinner and welcome party all at Renault -- making the wedding planning process super seamless, and they did such a fabulous job with every single piece. There are so many different spaces at Renault that make every moment feel super unique and special. We wouldn't have changed a thing over the whole weekend. :)

Our wedding at **Renault Winery was an absolute dream! From the moment we arrived, we knew it was something special — the historic charm, the romantic vineyard backdrop, and the elegant spaces created the perfect setting for our day. Every corner feels timeless and beautifully maintained, making it an incredible spot for both our ceremony and photos.
The entire staff went above and beyond to make everything seamless. Our coordinator was a true gem — organized, responsive, and genuinely invested in making sure our vision came to life. On the day itself, the team anticipated every need before we even had to ask. Everything ran perfectly on schedule, and we were able to simply enjoy every moment.
The food and wine were outstanding — our guests are still raving about the cocktail hour and signature drinks. The service throughout the evening was exceptional, and the atmosphere was warm, romantic, and unforgettable.
What we loved most was how personal and stress-free the entire experience felt. Renault Winery truly made us feel like family. If you’re looking for a venue that combines rustic elegance, gourmet dining, and a fairytale setting, this is it.
We could not have imagined a more beautiful start to our forever. Thank you to the entire Renault team for giving us the wedding of our dreams!
We also had our welcome party in Louie’s Lounge Under the tent! It was perfect !

My husband and I had the most beautiful and amazing wedding day at Renault winery August 10th, 2025. We had our ceremony in the champagne courtyard and our reception in the champagne ballroom. The venue with the beautiful hydrangea walkway and the beautiful grounds made our wedding pictures absolutely stunning. Our day felt like out of a fairytale and it was everything we dreamed of and more. The Renault staff were so attentive and helpful with anything we needed they were on standby the whole day. Jaynese was my day of wedding coordinator and she was amazing! Zeynep is the sales manager but she answered any question I had throughout my wedding planning and she was always so helpful and made wedding planning very easy and calming for me which is so important. I couldn’t say more wonderful things about this venue and the staff on our day. We truly had a magical day and it’s something we will always look back on and cherish with us forever. I recommend Renault winery for your wedding 1000%.

I don’t even know where to begin - we had the BEST day/weekend. I am so, so happy we chose Renault for our wedding and surrounding events (rehearsal dinner, after party, farewell brunch). Huge shout out to Zeynep for bringing our vision to life and helping us along the entire way. She was reliable, communicative and worked through everything we were hoping to achieve. Our day of coordinators were fabulous and SO attentive and helpful. The food was abundant and delicious. The rooms and ceremony space were gorgeous. I could go on and on, it truly was the best day / weekend of our lives.

Some things to consider about this venue. We got married at the Vineyard Ballroom September 2025 and there were so many amazing moments, we loved our wedding day but many things were off for the price and “reputation” of the venue.
- Renault will not cease holding large events surrounding your wedding. They planned a yacht rock concert that ended 30 minutes before our ceremony. Voices were noticeably loud during our ceremony from this event and a wedding party in the adjacent courtyard taking pictures. Music was also blaring on property when taking photos which was pretty overstimulating.
- My bridesmaid walked in on an intoxicated indecent wedding crasher in the bridal suite off the ballroom in the middle of our wedding! We speculated he was from the wedding next door but this was very offsetting given we had many valuables and all of our cards in the bridal suite and this is where most bridesmaids freshened up all night. He was searched and arrested but as a bride having to be asked if I want to press charges in the middle of my wedding by security was unsettling given I had no idea the impact he may have had on the event and our guests before he was caught. Statements were asked to be made mid wedding.
- My parents had the double King Suite. Upon showing up AC was broken but quickly fixed. Their bed caved to the ground the first night and upon notifying the front desk of the issue in the early AM maintenance came to fix it in the late afternoon when they needed to get ready for the rehearsal dinner. My parents kindly asked if they could come back once they had got ready for the event. Maintenance said they had to do it then or they were leaving for the day. This room is around $1k/night.
- You will work with a wedding planner and then be given a separate day of coordinator and assistant for wedding day a couple weeks out. Our planner we had worked with for a year was terminated a couple weeks before our wedding which led to us receiving a new planner and not being able to finalize payment and details until the week of the wedding. This was stressful as one would assume. Management did not contact us on the change in planner we just got an email from the new one. Little to no remediation plan for a change like this so close to wedding day.
- The method Renault uses to execute the wedding day led to having several things go wrong: 1) Lunch/snacks not being delivered at the proper time. Upon a reminder food was delivered an hour late shortly before ceremony. Wedding party was hungry and I was dizzy for the ceremony due to this. Renault has agreed to refund. 2) Our guests did not receive wine table service as paid for and were without drinks for the duration of about an hour of our wedding during speeches and dances. This was a main component of us wanting to get married at a winery and it was not executed. I realized after the fact. Renault has agreed to refund this. 3) Other simple requests stated before the wedding were overlooked and required consistent follow up.
As a bride it was overstimulating to have to correct issues (often too late) due to poor execution on my wedding day after a year of planning and fine tuning details. There was time, trust and money instilled in the venue and Renault team that could have gone a much longer way with another venue. Normal for things to go wrong but most of the above do not fall into the normal category. Opt for a more private and organized venue for a more peaceful wedding day.

My husband and I got married at Renault on 9/20/2025 with zero complaints. We had the pleasure of working with Breanna for our wedding day and Rylee for our rehearsal day. Both were amazing to work with and were able to understand and execute my vision perfectly. These girls work day and night making sure there brides are well taken care of! In addition to the friendly staff, myself and my guests were in awe at the beauty and the amenities that the grounds hold. My guests also complimented the rehearsal food and wedding day food! The hotel on the grounds is also well kept and the complimentary wedding day suite was absolutely perfect! We did secure the 2 story suite for the groomsmen and wow! We are beyond happy we had our rehearsal dinner at Renault as it was so nice to gather around the fire pits with wine and cigars and our closet friends and family before the big day. As for the wedding day I am SPEECHLESS. I could not have dreamed of a more perfect day. If you ever feel out of the loop, do not worry, they got you covered! I would recommend this venue a thousand times over. It is also the perfect venue to return back to as a married couple for anniversaries or other events.

My husband and I got married at Renault back in April. From the day we signed to our day the people at Renault did an amazing job making everything smooth and flawless. This was the first venue we visited and we signed the next day because of how beautiful it was. We can’t wait to come back and visit!

Renault is a gorgeous venue, food was phenomenal and reported as such by dozens and dozens of people including our New York family. I know there has been a lot of trashing of Renault lately regarding their food and I’m left with either those people are really picky/unhappy with everything put in front of them, or they had a quick turnaround after seeing reviews/comments from places like here. But we had no issues with food.
The flow day of was flawless, I had about 3 people from Renault nearby constantly and anything we needed was immediately in front of us. They were kind, quick, respectful, I couldn’t ask for more. Our wedding day was a dream, absolutely perfect!
The only reason I’m rating 7.5/10 is for how poor the communication was leading up to the wedding. I had to send a minimum of 3 emails to get a response, waiting a week between each email I would send knowing that Renault is busy. I had made several excuses for Renault for how many weddings they host and told myself that when it was my time they would be attentive. Week of the wedding we had several things that needed to be discussed (unfortunate deaths in the family and hospitalizations) and even then I had to email or call multiple times to get a response. At that point I had really reached my wits end and gave up on communication. If you are not 100% on your game and planning the wedding yourself or with another vendor, I would not book with Renault. I did not feel valued, important, or really like they cared at all up until the wedding day. I am unsure if this has to do with my specific assigned staff member, but communication with Renault was the worst part of the entire wedding process. I’m happy with the end result but the 1.5 years of planning beforehand were such a big headache that I would really and truly ensure you’re confident in your planning skills before going with them as a vendor.
One final qualm I had was that they had made an error with how much we owed them by over $6,000. I had tried to talk with them once about it at our tasting but was quickly brushed off that it was correct. Then I went home and crunched all of the numbers and realized it was in fact wrong so I sent an email asking where the extra $6k+ was coming from and eventually got a response that it was an error and the final balance was adjusted. This created doubt and I never got to see the final itemized bill for final add ons the month before the wedding and am left questioning if I overpaid or not but at this point I’m not interested in reaching out multiple times to get a response.
All of this to say I still had the most amazing day and the end result was flawless and everything I hoped it would be!

I highly recommend booking your wedding at Renault Winery! Such a gorgeous venue with a great staff and chef. The whole venue is really beautiful and historic with a great mix of rustic in the Vineyard room to the lush greenery in the courtyard to the eclectic esthetics in the restaurant. It really made for incredible pictures in each spot we stopped. Having been going down the shore for 30 years - I was shocked that I never heard about this spot before. I found it while searching through the Knot. It is now my new favorite place and my husband and I have stopped here multiple times for dinners, special events, and wine tastings before and after the wedding.
The food was fantastic from beginning to end - highly recommend the short rib and my favorite - the cobbler dessert. The chef even took special care of two of my guests with major, complicated allergies. I did not have to worry about them getting enough to eat as I knew he was creating something special for them.
I also loved that everything was on property - including the rehearsal dinner in the speakeasy and the hotel for the wedding party. My suite at the Renault Hotel was massive and plenty of room, light, and mirrors (two bathrooms!) for my large bridal party to get ready on the morning of.
I 100% recommend booking your wedding here - it was a magical weekend, and we appreciate all the hard work that went into making this day possible.

We got married a couple of weeks ago and it could not have been more perfect, largely in part thanks to the staff at Renault. We worked with Zeynep throughout the year while planning and the process could not have been better. She was so kind, professional, and on top of everything. It made the year so much less stressful and more fun to know that everything was taken care of. The actual wedding weekend was seamless - all the staff at Renault are lovely and amazing at their jobs. We were originally considering hiring an outside day-of coordinator and I am so glad we didn't because the coordinators at Renault were on top of everything. It made the day so special and stress-free. It was also a huge plus to have all the wedding events onsite - all the event spaces are gorgeous, the food is delicious, and we could not have been happier with how things went. If you're looking for a venue that does it all, this is it.

We cannot say enough amazing things about our experience at Renault! From the moment we signed the contract with Chloe, everything was seamless. Planning our rehearsal dinner with Rylee was just as easy — and then came the big weekend, which truly exceeded all our expectations.
Jon and Natasha were absolutely incredible. They went above and beyond to make sure every detail was perfect, and we felt so supported the entire time. The whole team was fantastic — kind, professional, and always willing to help or accommodate in any way they could.
Our wedding was truly perfect, and we couldn’t have done it without such an amazing team behind us. Special shoutout to Jon and Natasha for being the absolute best — we’re so grateful! The only thing that didn't go as planned was they cancelled the fire works the week of the wedding and given that we were getting married on 4th of July we were super excited but other than that it was amazing.
Can’t wait to come back and visit. Thank you again for everything!

We had our wedding reception at Renault Winery, and it was truly the best day. The venue is absolutely stunning and the team at Renault went above and beyond every step of the way. Our event coordinator, Zeynup, was attentive, professional, and helped us bring our vision together. Aside from the ceremony, everything else was done on site, from getting ready, pre-wedding events, reception, and our after party, and the entire staff helped plan and coordinate to make the day as seamless as possible, while making sure not only us, but our guests were comfortable. Our top priority for the wedding was food/drinks and Renault delivered. The head chef welcomed us to make requests to make a menu that we wanted and he was so accommodating. Our guests are not only raving about the beauty of renualt, but also the delicious food and drinks throughout the evening. We are so grateful to Renault for an unforgettable experience!

This venue and the people that work there are so amazing! We had our wedding in the champagne ballroom and it was perfect. The space and the grounds are so beautiful and checked all my boxes. We received countless compliments about the venue itself and the food which is very important.
Rylee was the sales manager assigned to us and she went above and beyond to help make our day so special. She was very attentive, responsive, and willing to do whatever was needed to accommodate any requests we had. I highly recommend Rylee and Reanult winery for your upcoming event!

I cannot rave more about Renault and their staff. I first worked with Breanna during our planning process and she was genuinely the most accommodating and amazing person to plan with. She truly makes you feel seen and cared for before the wedding day is even there. Once we arrived for our wedding weekend, we were taken care of from start to finish - from the hotel staff, to the restaurant, to the rehersal dinner and the actual wedding day. We felt like royalty. We worked with Jaynese as my coordinator and Faith/Sarah as her assists and they were unreal. They made sure we had a drink in hand at all times and were fed and just fully having the best day of our lives. I cant even imagine all the work they did without us even realizing to make it successful. Overall I would book my wedding day at Renault 1000 times over. It was an incredible weekend and we were simply obsessed with how everything came out.

We had the absolute pleasure of celebrating our special day at Renault Winery, and we couldn't be happier with how everything turned out!
From the start, Chloe, our coordinator, was incredibly accommodating. She was checking in to make sure we were comfortable, on track, and felt supported throughout the planning process. Her professionalism and warmth truly put us at ease and made the whole experience enjoyable.
On the day of the wedding, Johanna—our day-of coordinator—was amazing. She ensured everything ran smoothly and made sure our wedding party had everything we needed.
And of course, Chef Kenny was phenomenal. He personally checked in with us to ensure we loved the food—and we did!
Renault Winery gave us a magical day, and the staff made it unforgettable. We truly can’t thank them enough!

Our wedding day at Renault was absolutely magical truly the best day ever! From start to finish, Angela, Faith, Meghan, and Stephanie were nothing short of amazing. I definitely recommend requesting them. Their professionalism, warmth, and attention to every little detail ensured that our day was seamless and stress-free. The team went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect for us, and we felt so well taken care of.

Our experience with Renault Winery and Resort has been nothing short of exceptional! We first had our venue tour back in Dec ’23 and after meeting Breanna Carey we didn’t look any further. Our wedding was a 250+ people Indian ceremony in March ’25 in the Champagne Ballroom, lunch in the Vineyard Ballroom, and the reception and farewell brunch in the Champagne Ballroom. The venue itself is beautiful, and the food, atmosphere, etc., all made our wedding so memorable. We are still getting compliments on how lovely everything was.
Our experiences with Breanna and the Renault staff were perfect, any concerns we had were handled quickly, and there was no point that I felt like I had to truly wait for a response. Everyone was beyond accommodating, making sure all our small requests were followed, from s’mores tart and apple cobbler offered during dessert to having an extra table in my hotel room for hair and makeup. There was no point where we were told they couldn’t handle something. Wedding day, everything was smooth sailing with our timeline followed and everyone having the best time! Our experience was everything we wanted and more! I can’t recommend Renault and especially Breanna Carey enough!
Thank you to Breanna, Jay, Rylee, Jessica, and Cathy! It wouldn’t have been the same without all your help!

I will start by saying that the grounds at Renault are gorgeous. We got many beautiful photos for our wedding and we truly enjoyed the sights. Dealing with Renault Winery however, was a complete nightmare. Renault has a very high turnover in employees which made it difficult for our emails and questions to be answered leading up to our big day. We were assigned multiple event coordinators, multiple day of coordinators and assigned multiple hotel block staff over the course of our wedding planning. To this day there are still emails we sent that were never answered.
My spouse and I stayed at Chateau Renault a few months before our wedding as a trip for my mother in law. We wanted to show her around Renault.
Renault's hotel staff was extremely rude to us during our stay. I had voiced my concern to our event coordinator that I was worried about hotel staff being rude to our guests on our wedding day. A Renault manager called and apologized to me and assured me that this issue would be taken seriously and that their hotel staff would never showcase that behavior again.
Cut forward to our actual wedding day.
The hotel staff was indeed VERY nasty to our guests. My Maid of Honor and my mother were upset because one hotel staff asked them if they "knew how to read" because they inquired about what the price was for the weekend. Another one of our guests staying over complained to us that hotel staff rolled their eyes at them when they asked for a welcome bag that was sitting on the floor behind the desk. We had been assured that all of our guests would receive welcome bags (which we had worked on and put together) so we were surprised that our guests relayed how hotel staff treated them. Usually when you check into a hotel, you are greeted and welcomed. Hence the welcome bag. But our guests relayed to us that staff was cold, rude and unfriendly.
I am embarrassed that our guests had to encounter this while all they wanted to do was to celebrate a wedding weekend. I was upset that staff could speak to people in such a degrading manner.
The day of our wedding we had our day-of-coordinator who started the morning with us. She was very helpful while we got ready for photos. For the night of the wedding, we were told Renault provides one bridal attendant who is with you the entire time and the day of coordinator. During our reception, after our first dances, our day of coordinator completely disappeared.
After cake cutting, BOTH our coordinator and assistant disappeared and we never saw either of them again.
It wasn't until after our after party ended that we had went to gather our belongings in the Winemakers Hall storage room and the lights were turned off on us. We asked a nearby bartender if they could power back the lights, and they went and found our coordinator. We asked her where she was all night and she said "setting up for your after party of course!" in a joking manner.
Mind you, this was after our after party had already ended and we were headed back to the hotel for the night. We had not seen her for HOURS.
We were promised a coordinator and an assistant for our wedding for the entire night. We paid for a coordinator and an assistant. We tipped for a coordinator and an assistant. We were not given that coordinator and assistant.
Had we known Renault would not uphold their promise, we would have hired our own outside coordinator/day of wedding planner.
One of the biggest reasons why we picked Renault as a wedding venue was because we were promised these coordinators to help us for the night.
There were points in the evening where we needed help and there was no one there to help us.
Our vendors were asking us where their final payments were. We had no idea where our coordinator was with those payments.
I, as a bride had to run around my own wedding trying to find their payments. After almost 15 minutes of searching for our day-of coordinator, our vendors took over. Multiple vendors of ours had to go into the kitchen and ask around for our coordinator.
Instead of dancing and mingling with my guests, I had to manage and coordinate issues myself.
We had been promised that our coordinator and assistant would manage these issues, but that was not the case.
Our band had dismissed for dinner and there was no food for them. There was suppose to be a set schedule that Renault and our day-of coordinator designed with us, and the schedule was not followed nor were there any coordinators to help figure things out. We were on our own.
As a bride, I should not be the Maitre'd of my own wedding and telling people where to go. The whole organization of Renault is a mess.
We were also suppose to have a wedding rehearsal the afternoon of our wedding. Our day-of coordinator never came to find us during our photos as she had promised she would. We were getting ready for our actual ceremony when we finally found her and she said "let's do a super quick rehearsal!"
Our guests were already starting to arrive at that point. We had to rush our bridesmaids and families down the aisle, when our rehearsal was suppose to be hours earlier. As a result, our guests saw us before the ceremony, which we were trying to avoid.
We were also told that cake would be served to our guests at their tables.
At a certain point in the night, a huge line forms wrapping around the entire dance floor and reception area where people were in line for cake. Cake was apparently being served in the cocktail hour hallway. Our coordinator had originally promised us she would help us to manage crowds, but again she was no where to be found.
The Vineyard Ballroom where we had our reception was also very hot. For the majority of our reception, the air conditioning had broken. At one point in the night, staff did come and fix this problem, but we did have guests complaining to us that they were over heating.
We booked our wedding at the end of 2022 for a 2024 wedding. We had a contract for certain prices and menu items. There were a few instances where room block employees told us that fees were a certain price, but our contract stated otherwise. We had to argue and present our contract for them to adjust prices accordingly.
We felt the vibe that Renault is a "gotcha" type of place. We recognize that weddings are expensive, and the industry is fast growing. But, speaking with many friends who have gotten married the same year as us, they never had that sleazy vibe that we got from our wedding venue. We always felt Renault was trying to take advantage and if we did not continuously present our contract to protect ourselves, they would get over on us.
One down side which was uncontrollable, is that there are many random Renault restaurant guests who watch ceremonies. In the background of many of our ceremony photos and our video, you can see random people watching and standing near us. During the ceremony, Renault staff never asked people to leave or give us privacy. That made me a little uncomfortable.
Overall, we were extremely disappointed in how our wedding day was conducted. We truly regret picking Renault Winery as our wedding venue.
We were looking forward to coming back to Renault to celebrate anniversaries, but I could never stomach going back to Renault again. We trusted Renault to follow through on promises that we paid a great deal of money to have, and they did not deliver. We can only warn future brides of the mess that is Renault Winery.

I can’t thank Renaults team enough. We had an absolutely amazing day. Ang, was amazing to work with. Everyone was so kind. I absolutely loved Stephanie. Everything was so beautiful. Everything ran so efficiently. Ashley was an angel. Anytime I was missing something. I could turn around tell Ashley where it was. And she’d be back in one second. The food was absolutely amazing. All of my guests said it was the funnest wedding they’ve ever been to in their lives. Everyone has reached out to me days after to make sure all my needs were met. I loved absolutely everyone!!

This review is coming from a vendor's perspective. My company has been lucky enough to provide wedding entertainment at Renault Winery on multiple occasions and most recently on 12/14/24. Jaynese (Coordinator) and her staff on site were more than accommodating! As a fellow wedding vendor, it's imperative that entertainment works in unison with all vendors involve within the course of a wedding day. I must say that Jaynese and her staff were, by far, one of the easiest and most talented teams I've had the pleasure of working with. When my clients book weddings at Renault, I truly look forward to the experience because I know their expectations are just as high as mine. Can't wait to be back soon!

We absolutely adored Renault Winery and having our wedding there was such a perfect decision. We had a micro wedding (~35 people) and everything went way smoother than I could’ve ever expected. Our guests, as well as my husband and I, are still raving about the food and service. Jaynese, our day of coordinator, was phenomenal, not only the day of, but through the entire process. She was available to answer any and all questions we had and made me truly feel at ease during the process. I highly recommend having a wedding at Renault Winery

One thing to note is that communication during the early stages was a bit stressful but the sales manager and entire team definitely made up for it in the end! Vineyard Ballroom was absolutely perfect for what we needed and our guests loved it. Food is amazing and alcohol was strong! 5 stars! Thank you, Renault!

The Renault team was exceptional to work with- specifically our coordinator Angela who is an absolute rockstar. I can't tell you the number of guests who told us it was one of the best and most beautiful weddings they have ever been to - and that was definitely in large part due to the Renault team. Staff- incredible, food- incredible, grounds- incredible.

My husband and I got married here in October 2024. Wow! What an absolutely magical and beautiful day. I have to start off with saying how thankful I was to work with my sales manager, Chloe. I am forever grateful to have the pleasure to work with Chloe. She was so involved with our wedding planning and though we had a few hiccups, Chloe ensured that everything was taken care off. Chloe went above and beyond for our wedding in so many different ways and if you can work with Chloe…. DO IT. Our coordinator, Johanna, was also amazing and super hands on. All the staff the day off made me feel like the most important person in the world and for that I am forever thankful! The food, the service, the grounds, the atmosphere were all top tier and Renault Winery is just such a magical place. While it is certainly not a cheap venue, it was worth every penny. As mentioned before, we did have some hiccups, including staff turnover. I’ve learned this is normal in the wedding industry, ensure you get everything in writing to avoid any confusion. Overall, what an amazing day. Special thanks to Chloe (sales manger), Johanna (Coordinator) and lastly the most amazing bartender Jen. These three ladies went above and beyond for our day. Thank your Renault Winery for the most perfect wedding day!

Renault winery must go through a really extensive interview process to choose the nicest and most caring people in that state of NJ. From beginning to end, Renault staff has been an absolute dream. Very accommodating , helpful, kind, respectful, professional, and overall.. understanding. Wedding planning is not for the weak and Renault winery completely grasps that concept in its entirety. I’d like to shout out Zeynep, Jaynese, and Leah. They became a part of my bridal party because they were so helpful and involved. I felt that they truly cared about the details, the small moments, and the essence of living through a once in a life time event. I hope everyone has the pleasure of working with them. Zeynep answered all my questions in a timely manner and was always courteous to pass a long am inquiry if she was unavailable. Jaynese was assigned to me as my wedding coordinator two days before my wedding and she went above and beyond with scheduling and instructing. Leah was very hands on such as caring my heavy train all around the venue and assisting other vendors to achieve our wedding vision. Thank you ladies and Renault for hosting my wedding day. I’ll be a life long customer.

We got married on September 7th 2024, and it was the best day of my life. That wouldn’t have been possible without the amazing staff at Renault. The venue is absolutely breath taking, we got married in the vines, and our reception was in the ballroom in the hotel. Our wedding coordinator, Angela, made the whole day go smooth. I can honestly say that not one thing went remotely wrong the day of our wedding. Angela and her team made sure everything went perfect! She listened to the vision I had for the day and made it come to life. Everyone from the servers, bartenders, hotel staff etc are so warm and just want to make sure you have the best day, which we absolutely did! I would absolutely recommend getting married here, and if you do, make sure to request Angela for your coordinator!

My husband and I got married at Renault Winery & Resort in April 2024. With the help of their INCREDIBLE staff members - we experienced one of the best days of our life. From the beginning of the planning process, Renault’s staff was more than helpful and accommodating. They do not just see each wedding as an opportunity to make money, but instead an opportunity to create the best possible wedding for the couple they are assisting. There was constant communication with staff members leading up to the big day - to ensure that all of my questions and concerns were taken care of. The tasting was so incredible - and the amount of food options is amazing, especially if you have any dietary restrictions in the family! For the day of the event; we could not have asked for a more perfect wedding! We had multiple venue coordinators there with us throughout our entire day (shout out Jaynese & Johana I LOVE YOU BOTH) so that if there was anything we needed they were there to get it for us! I wanted a wedding experience in which I would not have to worry on the day of - I just wanted to show up and have fun. With the help of this venue and their amazing staff that was more than possible for us. I could not recommend this venue enough - our guests were raving about the gorgeous property, delicious food, and incredible staff to this day!

Renault Winery was extremely helpful and diligent throughout the entire wedding experience. We didn't have a planner and Renault made the process so much easier with their excellent team and staff. The day of staff were extremely courteous and helpful.
A particular shout-out to Angela and Tara, both of whom were excellent the day of. Angela was our coordinator and made our day magical and organized. She was professional, patient, and helpful. Tara helped both of us (bride and groom) and was immensely helpful the day of with the bridal dress and helping us travel around. She was attentive and helpful!

We had our wedding at Renault Winery in the Vineyard Ballroom this August 2024. It was the most magical day. We took over a year and a half to plan the wedding and Jaynese was there with us through it all. She never left any questions unanswered and she always made us feel so at ease that the wedding day would go smooth. The day of the wedding Jaynese and all of Ranaults staff went above and beyond to make sure everything was PERFECT! I couldn't thank them enough. 100% recommend Renault Winery for your wedding day!

We had our wedding in the champagne ballroom in August of 2024. It truly was the most magical day. The room is stunning but it looked even better than we ever could have expected. We had the pleasure of working with Angela and Faith. We had many specific requests that they accommodated beautifully. All of our guests commented on how delicious the food was. We also used the gallery / museum room for our rehearsal dinner and it was stunning. The bridal party got ready at the hotel (chateau Renault) and it was just so convenient having so many spaces to incorporate throughout the weekend. We wish we could relive it because it was the best day ever. I know we will be celebrating our anniversaries there!!

My husband and I got married at Renault Winery in the Champagne Ballroom on 8.9.24. Renault was the first and last venue we toured. As soon as we walked up to Renault for our scheduled tour (also our first time there), we were greeted with the warmest smiles and felt so welcomed. My husband and I felt so confident after the tour that Renault was going to be our wedding venue. Our coordinator, Nicole Benya, made our wedding planning journey so stress free. She was attentive and had the best communication. We were truly lucky to have her on our big day! She was there for us the whole day on our wedding and orchastrated a beautiful ceremony. Our sales manager, Rylee Winkelspecht, also played a huge role in our wedding weekend and we could not have done it without her! I did not expect a sales manager to be so present on our big day, but there she was making sure everything was running smoothly and always checking in on me. We seriously could not have gotten through the entire wedding weekend festivities without the two of them. We cannot thank the wait staff, bartenders, managers, hotel concierge, golf attendants, and everyone in the back scenes enough! All of our hopes and dreams for our wedding came to life - thanks to everyone at Renault Winery! Renault Winery will forever hold a special place in our hearts.

We just got married at Renault on Friday 7/12 and let me say it was the best wedding ever! The whole Renault team was outstanding and a pleasure to work with. Nicole, our coordinator, was very professional and extremely helpful during the whole process leading up to and on the big day! We worked with Morgan for our night before and she also did an amazing job at making sure everything was taking care of. Along with Rylee, she also made everything run smooth and such a big help! The food was amazing, the place is absolutely beautiful, and the staff is just fantastic to work with!

Our wedding at The Renault was an absolute dream come true, thanks to the incredible team of wedding coordinators and the stunning venue itself. Everytime we visited the venue, emailed, or called with questions throughout our year of planning, we felt heard & valued.
Our wedding coordinator, Angela was exceptional in every way. Her team was not only professional and organized but also incredibly warm and attentive to every detail. They listened to our vision and executed it flawlessly, from coordinating vendor arrivals to ensuring the timeline flowed smoothly throughout the day. Their experience and expertise were evident at every turn, which allowed us to relax and truly enjoy our wedding day without any worries.
Our guests were equally impressed with the venue and the service provided. The staff were courteous and accommodating, making everyone feel welcomed and ensuring that every need was met. The food was delicious, and the presentation was impeccable, adding to the overall memorable experience for all our guests.
Choosing The Renault and working with their exceptional team of wedding coordinators & overall staff was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. We cannot thank them enough for making our day so special and creating memories that will last a lifetime. If you're looking for a wedding venue that combines beauty, professionalism, and top-notch service, look no further than The Renault! We highly recommend!
Best regards,

I recently celebrated my wedding at Renault Winery, and I cannot express how wonderful the experience was. From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond to ensure our day was perfect. Their attention to detail and dedication to customer service truly made our wedding unforgettable.
The venue itself is breathtaking, with beautiful landscapes and charming architecture that provided a stunning backdrop for our ceremony and photos. The banquet hall was elegantly decorated, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere for our guests.
The food was absolutely phenomenal. Every dish was expertly prepared and delicious, from the appetizers to the main courses and desserts. Our guests couldn't stop raving about the quality and presentation of the meals.
What really stood out was the exceptional service provided by the staff. They were incredibly attentive, accommodating every request with a smile and ensuring that everything ran smoothly. Their professionalism and friendliness made the entire experience stress-free and enjoyable.
I highly recommend Renault Winery for anyone looking for a perfect wedding venue. The combination of beautiful surroundings, outstanding food, and top-notch service makes it an ideal choice for a memorable celebration. Thank you, Renault Winery, for making our special day truly magical!

Renault was beautiful and a dream come true. I got married in the Vineyard Ballroom. The wedding venue does it for itself, the landscape and details are gorgeous, and our guests could not stop talking about it. The staff were professional and pleasant. My main coordinator was Nicole B. and she worked at Renault. She did a fabulous job, she was very detailed and responsive. She was there throughout the day when I needed her for help, her AM and PM assistance were also a pleasure to work with.

Where to even begin. Our wedding day was truly the best day of our life, and that is thanks to the incredible staff at Renault. Nicole, who was our on-site coordinator, was super helpful, professional and personable and was always available to answer any pre-wedding questions. The day of was completely seamless and there was a staff member/assistant present and attentive at all times to help with anything we needed and even anticipated our needs. The food was outstanding, the Vineyard Ballroom was everything we dreamed it would be and more and the venue itself was just breathtaking. Our guests are still raving about the venue as it has so much to offer from the hotel, restaurant and tasting rooms, outdoor fire pits and music and more. The staff at Renault felt like our family by the end of everything, and I would not hesitate for a second to check it out for your wedding!!

After touring Renault, we felt like you couldn’t beat the general atmosphere and vibes of the entire property. They have multiple event spaces available based on the size of your wedding and they really let you customize the spaces to tailor to your vision.
Our Salesperson was Breanna, and she led us around the winery on our first tour and really let us view each space around the property to let us envision how our wedding would unfold. She was extremely knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. We sat down for an hour and went through all of our questions and Breanna was able to answer everything.
Our day-of Wedding Coordinator was Angela. She has experience at Renault in other positions, but this role of Coordinator was fairly new to her. Even so, she was able to help us refine all the details leading up to our big day and answer any questions/concerns we had. The biggest thing Angela helped us with was a last-minute change of ceremony location because of the weather. We moved from outside to inside and we could not have been happier with how easy that was and how everything was set up. We almost wish we had chosen that location to begin with! For the cocktail hour and reception, Angela was able to help us customize the floor plan and layout, tables, sign locations, etc. to really allow us to bring our vision to life. Angela was able to communicate our timeline for wedding day and making sure all of our set-up, preparation, first look, rehearsal, etc. all went smoothly and without any problems. Could not have been happier with how our day played out! Thank you Angela! Also special shoutout to Angela’s assistants Mackenzie and Nicole who went above and beyond to help us throughout the night.

When my Fiancé and I pulled into the Renault parking lot I knew we were getting married here, it was just a matter of when. After 18 long months of waiting our day was absolutely PERFECT. The staff were unbelievable. Special shout out to our assistant Trevon who literally was a god sent angel. Running all over to help me change my shoes, get my bouquet, carrying my dress & making sure I had everything I needed. Angela was an amazing coordinator and was super attentive to every little detail provided. Our guest raved about the food, especially the potato’s at dinner and the Asian food station during cocktail hour. The venue is beautiful and we got so many compliments across the board! Would highly recommend having your wedding or event here!

My fiancé and I fell in love with Renault when we toured the grounds last July to lock in our wedding date. Little did we know how much we would come to love The Staff at Renault, in addition to the winery's amenities over these months. Everyone was extremely knowledgeable, professional, and accommodating and each team member felt like they were in our wedding and not nameless faces who were just there to help.
We were married at Renault last week and we could not have been happier with our choice and with those who guided us every step of the way.
Morgan and her staff assisted us in setting up our rehearsal dinner in the Speakeasy Room and went above and beyond to make sure all our needs were met. She along with Karissa also assisted us with EVERY special request we had leading up to the big day.
Elaina was so friendly and personable and worked with our family to set up our Sunday brunch that we all enjoyed at Taste 1864.
Megan was our wedding coordinator and we felt so at ease with her in our first meeting a month out from our wedding. From that moment on, we never once felt nervous about the lead up, and that is a direct credit to her professionalism and bedside manner walking us through this entire process. Megan and her team made our special day incredibly more special and our guests continue to let us know how amazing the food was and their overall enjoyment at Renault.
My wife and I always knew that Renault would forever hold a special place in our hearts, but we were incredibly happy to have met so many wonderful people there along this fun journey. We will be heading back to Renault to celebrate our one month anniversary and to say hi again to all our new friends.
Thank you Renault for a lifetime of memories!!! ~M&R

We had our wedding in the Champagne ballroom and couldn’t be happier! We had some coordinator changes throughout the year, but they went out of their way to make me/us feel comfortable with the change. They are always available for questions too! Megan and the whole staff were amazing!!
