Twin Oaks House & Gardens

I can’t imagine our day without the Trademark team and the beautiful twin oaks venue! It’s even more beautiful in person and we truly didn’t have to worry about a thing day of. Every single thing was taken care of by our planner Amy and bridal assistant Katie! It was amazing and we got so many compliments. The food was also great. They help you put a solid plan together before the big day so you can actually be stress free at your wedding. Highly recommend, if you are on the fence about booking then do yourself a favor and go for it!

We had a December wedding here with 180 people and had so many people tell us that it was the best wedding they’ve ever been to. The flow of the venue is absolutely perfect for a crowd and had plenty of little spaces to hangout but still felt intimate. The gardens are absolutely beautiful and well maintained. The bridal salon was perfect to get ready with all the bridesmaids and the boys loved the speakeasy. The venue is all outside with a heated tent. We rented space heaters for cocktail hour but the tent was nice and cozy for a chilly December night. We opted for the satellite bar during happy hour and everyone said they got their drinks FAST! We were extremely impressed with the bartending staff and they even let us do a signature cocktail. You also provide all of your own liquor and mixers which was a huge plus if you want open bar with a big crowd. The food was amazing, we did family style, and everyone raved about it. The family style is perfect so tables don’t feel bad getting table called last to the buffet. We did beef, chicken, mashed potatoes, and green beans; people’s only complaint was that there was too much food. The staff was outstanding and attentive. Our wedding coordinator, Gina, was so helpful and informative throughout the entire planning process. She is so organized and made me go into our wedding with no stress knowing I would be in good hands. Katie was our bridal assistant, she is such a gem. She was so sweet bringing us champagne and checking in on us all day while getting ready. The star of the show was the manager, Billy. Billy absolutely crushed it and made sure everything went smoothly. He checked on me all day and even carried by bags and escorted me to our party bus on the way out. Overall we had the most magical wedding and can’t thank Twin Oaks and all their staff for making our day so special.

We got married on 1/13 and I so appreciated the amazing attention to details and instructions we went over throughout each planning process. Literally the best wedding food i think I will ever have. The planning over the year before our wedding was very organized and detailed. The venue is INCREDIBLY pretty, I think it got more compliments than my dress lol. We loved the ethereal vibe but also how cozy it can be. You get to enjoy all of the venues beauty all night. Natalie, our coordinator, made everything easy leading up to the day and made the day run smoothly. She gave recommendations to save money and on good local vendors to work with. Highly recommend this venue for the in house planning, the AMAZING food and the ease of having most of your needs all in one place.

Twin Oaks is a GORGEOUS venue. This was the first venue I toured and all the other venues I saw after did not compare to the beauty that Twin Oaks has to offer. If you are looking to have a romantic fairy tale wedding, look no further! The beautiful greenery and flowing fountains throughout the property is what sold it for us. In addition to the natural beauty, the Trademark staff was ON TOP of their stuff. Every meeting that I had with the coordinators always left me feeling a sense of relief in all the wedding planning stress. The day of was nothing different, Karamia and Katie on the Trademark team were SOOOO attentive, kind, and made me feel so comfortable during the whole process. I even knocked over some food on my gown (so sad!!) and the girls were on their hands and knees trying to scrub out the stain! In all, I would 100% recommend having your wedding at Twin Oaks House & Gardens. My husband and I couldn't have been more thrilled. Thank you for the perfect day! :)

We just got married on Thurs, 11/3/22 (have a Thursday wedding, seriously!) and oh my gosh, I don’t even know where to start… Okay, I do, and it’s with Jenna. Jenna is absolutely wonderful and is the best wedding coordinator EVER. She made everything so exciting and fun and was such a joy to plan with. Day of, she checked in on us just enough and had everything arranged exactly as we discussed, and it was just so absolutely beautiful. She made our vision come to life and it was pure magic. Speaking of day of, Katie is a total delight. She always made sure we had water and champagne and anything else we needed. The girls are the perfect amount of professional and fun, where it was so comforting to know you are in the best hands and everything is handled, but it also felt like family was with us the whole time. I had a beautiful conversation with Katie before I walked down the aisle, and I will always treasure that moment with her. <3 The venue brought tears to our eyes the first time we saw it, and the night of our wedding was spectacular. Jenna was fantastic with communicating with us as needed and moving the cake cutting up since toasts ran long to make sure our videographer captured the moment. She kept everything on schedule, and did it with grace and finesse. Regardless of what actual venue you choose, Trademark knows what they’re doing. From the first point of contact to the scheduled phone calls, meetings, the menu tasting (if you opt in for this, which we would totally say to do – make it a date!)… you feel from the start that you are working with people who know exactly what they are doing and do it so well! I cannot say enough wonderful things about the ambiance, the staff, the food… this was a dream come true experience for us, and my husband (SWOON!) and I are eternally grateful to be able to look back on this with so much joy and love. It was extraordinary and we are still floating!

We got married at twin oaks house and garden 9/24/22! The venue is absolutely gorgeous- and was perfect for our Disneyland fairytale theme! We received so many compliments from guests on how beautiful the venue was. You truly feel like you were transported into your own oasis! I will admit the beginning planning process was a bit of a bumpy ride with our planners getting switched around- but we ended up with Jenna who I can’t recommend enough! If your booking twin oaks as your venue- you NEED to request her. She was an absolute dream and we are gonna miss working with her! She’s absolutely the sweetest person ever, and will go above and beyond to make your day run smoothly. Her communication is amazing and we felt so at easy knowing she was going to be with us on our special day. Again, Jenna is the best!!!! Also Katie was our bridal assistant the day of- and wow she killed it as well! Both the bridal and groom party loved her to bits! She always made sure we were taken cared of and got us food and water if we needed anything. If you truly want an unique and magical wedding venue- twin oaks is the perfect venue for you!

We recently had our wedding at Twin Oaks Garden 8/4 and I can not rave about the trademark venue team enough! They went above and beyond our expectations really made our wedding a dream come true. Jenna our coordinator and bridal assistant were THE sweetest people instant connection with these two! As a bride a truly felt I had one the best experiences planning our wedding from start to finish. No detail was left behind, our day was organized and everything ran so smooth! Not to mention just how magical and whimsical this venue IS!!! We had so many of our guests tell us just how beautiful everything was and one of the best weddings they have ever attended! Keep it up you guys are killing it!

Stop searching and have your wedding at Twin Oaks! Not only were we so happy with this choice from the beginning, but so were all of our guests! Natalia, our day of coordinator, thank you! This wedding was better than the wedding of our dreams, Trademark knows what they’re doing. I can go on for day’s, but just know we are so happy with our experience at this beautiful venue.

We were so excited about getting married at Twin Oaks this year. However, due to COVID-19 we did have to cancel. I will say that the leadership team at Trademark Venues was absolutely outstanding in their communication, their understanding, and their ability to work with us on a refund. The venue itself is stunning, a true fairytale wedding! Although we wish we could have had our big day there, we are very grateful for having had worked with them <3

This all inclusive and gorgeous venue was the best choice for us! They make the whole planning process incredibly easy and they guide you step by step. The staff is so experienced and kind. Our wedding planner was great! Overall, our wedding day was perfect and I highly recommend this venue

Fulfilled all my wedding dreams! Before even starting the daunting task of planning a wedding, Twin Oaks was the first venue we went to see and I was done! It was everything I wanted and my FH, who frankly didn’t care as long as I was happy, really liked it too. After finding out that the pricing was within our budgeted range, we signed a contract that day! We did go look at their other venue Green Gables, too. It’s just as lovely, but Twin Oaks had more of the intimate feel that I loved. The best thing about this venue is simply it’s beauty. Because it’s only used for weddings year round, they have made every nook and cranny inside and outside so pretty for photographs and for creating an elegantly natural vibe for the guests. They are constantly improving and adding new details and it’s incredible how they are able to keep the grounds lush and green year round. The bridal getting ready suite inside the historical school house is full of design details that make it unlike anything I’ve ever seen. As an interior designer myself, I’m not easily impressed so my adoration of this venue is hopefully helpful. Many of my guests were designers as well, and they all told me how they’ve never been to a more beautiful wedding. The next best thing about this venue is that it is all inclusive. If you’re like me, you have a job that keeps you very busy and you have a FH who is hands off with most things wedding related. Twin Oaks comes with a wedding coordinator and many built-in services so the planning process was so easy. I had Chloe as my coordinator and she was fantastic at keeping everything organized and on track from beginning to end. Not having to bring on outside vendors for catering, tables/chairs, linens, bartending, decor rentals, and a day-of coordinator was such a load off of my shoulders. They presented me with my options, and I simply had to pick what I liked. The only vendors I had to bring on myself were the florist, DJ, photographer, and desserts. You can go through Twin Oaks for wedding cake and desserts, but we had someone else that we wanted to use. I also loved that there is a permanent reception tent that is included in the cost. Our wedding was in January so there was a risk of having a wet outdoor wedding. If it did rain, there was a built-in backup to have the ceremony in the tent. Thankfully, it was a beautiful day and the sun came out for our wedding! Our wedding day was so special and so much more than both my husband and I ever imagined. Chloe and the Twin Oaks staff were hugely responsible for making our day feel stress free so we could just enjoy our time with each other, family and friends. I read other reviews too, but they still went above and beyond my expectations. The only tiny hiccup that day was my fault and Chloe addressed it perfectly. I forgot to give them the custom table numbers that I had printed for the reception. Chloe came to me and told me they didn’t seem to have the table numbers but that they can simply use the ones that they provide for free. She had the example in her hand and it was an easy ‘yes’ from me. It looks great in my photos and no one else is the wiser. A few weeks later, my husband told me that he never really felt the need for a formal wedding, but he is so happy now that we did it. We have special memories that will forever be tied to Twin Oaks!

I could not recommend Twin Oaks enough! From the moment my mom sent me the link to the website, I fell in love. I wanted to know pricing so I contacted the office. They wouldn't really tell me what the pricing was without booking a tour first, which is fine because I loved the place and wanted to see more of it. I didn't live in the area at the time, so they were able to accommodate me by doing a virtual tour. My mom and I skyped in and one of the coordinators showed us around the venue on her phone and answered any questions we had. After the tour, we had a follow-up consultation with her right after. This is where we learned more about their pricing and packages. We ended up booking our wedding on a Thursday because it was about half the price it would have been on the weekend. After that, we were assigned Chloe Grogan as our coordinator. Chloe has been so great throughout the whole process. During our initial phone call, she asked us questions about any vendors we had booked, our wedding party, parents, etc. I have asked Chloe SO many questions over email and she has always been a delight to speak to and answered all my questions in a timely manner. When our 2nd meeting (The design meeting) rolled around, we were able to go in person! Myself, my fiance, my sister, my best friend, and my mom all came and they LOVED the place. We all sat down with Chloe, who was very nice, and she went through all of our options with us for napkins, colors, furniture, rentals, etc. It felt very easy and stress-free which is all I could really ask for with wedding planning. The catering meeting was done at another venue and there, we were able to enjoy an open bar and try all the options for food. Most of it was fine, but we ended up choosing a couple of awesome tasting items! (The Santa Maria Tri-tip and butternut squash ravioli were SO good!) Chloe ended up being our coordinator the whole way through and she was the BEST. She kept the rehearsal running smoothly. It was probably the smoothest rehearsal I had ever been a part of (even though the officiant was late). And the day of, she and the rest of her team were on top of it. I was running late to the venue and the assistants offered me champagne right away which was greatly appreciated because I was an anxious mess. I would start scrambling to take something somewhere in a panic and they would stop me and take care of it for me and offer me more champagne-they were absolutely amazing and I truly felt like a queen that day. Some of my favorite aspects were the twinkle lights all over the venue and the schoolhouse bell that rang when I arrived when our ceremony ended, and for our grand exit-just like a fairytale! Chloe would keep checking in with us on what would happen next and make sure we were ready. The day was over before we knew it and Chloe sent us home with a bag of food which we appreciated SO much because in the craziness, we missed out on trying some desserts-thanks Chloe!! Everyone loved the venue and the staff was so kind to us the whole process. I highly recommend Twin Oaks to anyone who may be considering it. It was truly a magical day for us thanks to them.

Twin Oaks is absolutely stunning! I was in love with this venue for years before we actually got married there, and it was a dream come true. The venue itself is always perfectly maintained, and the process is so easy. We had Kelsey Carlin as our wedding coordinator and she always answered all of my questions and made the process as smooth as possible. The day of the wedding was completely stress free for myself, my husband, and our families because we knew that Kelsey and the Twin Oaks team had it all under control and would just come grab us when we needed to be involved in something. Stunning and unique venue, amazing team, great food; we had the best day ever!

We had a fairytale wedding at Twin Oaks House & Garden! The venue was perfect and we received many compliments from our guests about how unique of a venue it is. While the venue is beautiful, I need to give credit to Chloe and her fabulous team for pulling everything off flawlessly. First of all, Chloe is amazing! She is so calm and sweet. We only met twice and she quietly took notes, and on the big day everything was perfect! Everything was perfectly placed and decorated. She didn't forget a single detail. We had our dog in our ceremony and a lot of small details, and her and her team took care of everything. I'll admit I was a little crazy about keeping things on schedule and she was always there moving things along for me. The food was delicious, some of the best wedding food I've ever had! I heard from my guests that the bartenders were really cool too. Overall wonderful experience! I wish we could do it all over again! Pictures to come as soon as I get them from our photographer.

My husband and I were married at Twin Oaks March 22, 2019. We had looked at right different venues and decided that we loved Twin Oaks for its charm and elegance. I kept reading about brides getting that “feeling” when they visited a venue that they knew was right. I didn’t feel that until I visited Twin Oaks. The planning process is great this way you don’t need an outside planner or props. They provide practically everything you need. Natalie was my planner and I’m so grateful that she was there to help me through the planning and on the day of. I cannot even begin to express how wonderful this venue is. Day of they took care of EVERYTHING, if there was a problem we were not made aware of it and never even noticed. I stayed relaxed and had the best possible experience ever because they literally took care of everything. All my decor was set up beautifully and I received tons and tons of compliments about how my wedding was the most beautiful wedding that anyone had seen. Thank you Natalie and Twin Oaks staff, especially food coordinations for accommodating my special requests. Everything was perfect!

We had our wedding here last night. Having our wedding here was literally the best choice we made. Everything ran so smoothly, and the coordinators, especially Chloe, were so easy to work with. I had absolutely no stress the day of because they were so on top of things. All night long we were getting compliments on what an amazing venue we chose and how beautiful it was. 10/10

This is the dreamiest most romantic venue ever. The entire property is breathtaking. It's hard not to feel like its a complete fairytale. The staff is so helpful both on the big day and leading up to it. Mary was my day of coordinator and she was incredibly helpful and patient. She made my day run so smoothly and was always so attentive to the groom and I. I got so many compliments on my choice in venue. It has so much romance and character throughout the property. Every inch of it is well thought out and all of their space is beautiful. Can't say enough good things about Twin Oaks!

This venue was worth every penny. Not only were our guests stunned by how gorgeous it was, they made the entire process so easy. Our coordinator answered every question, was super patient with every single idea and put all of my decor and ideas into action flawlessly. The day of was so stress free. Their staff works like clockwork to make the day run smoothly. We felt taken care of and so did our guests. We loved this venue.

KELSEY IS AMAZING!!!! We instantly fell in love with this venue and when planning our special day, our coordinator, Kelsey, only made everything better!! She was so sweet, personal, and she is incredible at her job! She always made sure that I (the bride) was comfortable, well fed, and on point! She made our day so easy and stressfree! Thank you, Twin Oaks and Kelsey for the amazing wedding location and experience!❤️

I got married earlier this month and I have nothing but great things to say about the coordinators, staff, food, and overall experience at this venue. From the first time I saw this venue, I fell absolutely in love!! It is the perfect place to get married if you are looking for an outdoors/garden venue and has all types of hidden gems to explore. Jaime and Mary who were our coordinators, were such a great team to work with. They made the planning process so easy and made my dream wedding come to life!! They knew exactly what my vision was for my decor and I was so happy with every single detail they put into our wedding. Especially the pumpkin patch... it was a hit with all of our guests! The day of our actual wedding went so smooth as well and our coordinators were not only on top of everything, but went above and beyond to attend to myself and my husband. To say this venue is amazing is quite an understatement and you will not be disappointed. All of our guests had such a great time and have nothing but positive things about everything. Our wedding was a dream come true and would not have been able to do it without the staff at Twin Oaks.

We went to check out this venue a few days after getting engaged since I had some time off of work and still had family in town that wanted to join. When we went to visit this venue and tour it, we all fell in love. It was the perfect feel for the type of wedding we wanted to have. Before you know it, we were booking our wedding. (6 months out) We had a lot of working and planning to do in order to make everything run smoothly since we only had 6 months to do it. We personally worked with Serena and she was amazing. She did everything she needed to do to help our special day run smoothly. She was always available by phone or email to answer any questions we had. Every time we had a meeting with her she was very patient and willing to work with all of our requests. I started to get very nervous as the wedding got closer about everything running smoothly. I can honestly say between the work of Serena (and the rest of the team) and all the vendors, I couldn't have asked for a better day. Serena did such an amazing job communicating to us as well as all the vendors. Our day was literally flawless. It went smoother than I could have ever imagined. If you are looking for a venue in the North County area I would recommend this venue 100%. They were able to meet our needs and work with us up until the very last minute of walking down the aisle! Thanks again for making our night so amazing. We couldn't have done it without all of your help!

I loved this venue! Serena was our coordinator and she was fantastic! She ensured that everything was going as planned leading up to the date and that I was happy with everything we would discuss. Our wedding day ran perfectly and all of our guests loved the venue and the flow of the day/night. Serena did a great job with my large bridal party and all of our wedding guests. She truly is fantastic! I wouldn't change anything about our day at Twin Oaks House and Garden Estate. The environment was perfect and whimsical. We loved the staff, the food and everything about Twin Oaks House. I wish we could do this day all over again here.

We searched all of Los Angeles, Temecula and Orange County looking for a wedding venue and we were starting to think there was nothing like what we wanted in Southern California. However, the second we walked into the venue, it exceeded our wildest imaginations. It is absolutely gorgeous any time of the year. We were worried it might be too hot for the outdoor ceremony but it is very well-shaded. The planning process was so wonderful as well. They seriously make it as stress free as possible. My wedding planner, Serena, was outstanding. She immediately responded to all of my emails very thoughtfully and knowledgeably, even at the planning period where I was sending multiple emails full of questions in a day! She always answered very concisely and was always offering solutions to any problem I came up with. During the planning meetings, she was the perfect balance of suggestions and making us come to our own decisions. Planning the venue and decorations was the easiest part of the whole process because they have such a great system. Some places really nickel and dime you for everything but here there was options for upgrades but they were reasonable and everything included was very high quality and beautiful. On the actual day, Serena and her team really did an amazing job. They assigned people to me to make sure I had everything I needed and Serena handled ALL of the little details of the wedding and timeline. I never once had to worry if we were on schedule or about things not being how I planned. Everything ran so smooth. Everyone loved all of the appetizers and the cocktails! Our wedding day was actually pretty cold so I was worried the tent would be too cold because it is open but their heaters worked wonders! It was so warm and cozy everywhere in the tent but never overly heated. Everyone loved the food and the stations. No one ever had to wait to get food and was able to eat at their own pace and try everything out. People could dance in the tent or find a little corner to hang out and drink. People were tucked into every little corner having an amazing time. Lastly, they were wonderful at cleaning up as the night went on and were wonderful at packing up everything for us at the end of the night. This venue was beyond perfect. It is visually stunning and completely set the entire aesthetic for the wedding. The whole team was so helpful and professional. Serena handled everything so perfectly to make sure everything ran smoothly and was executed exactly as I had envisioned. I can't imagine a less stressful experience in planning a wedding than I had at Twin Oaks. Also, all of my vendors loved working with Twin Oaks because they are so good at making wonderful weddings (especially the photographers because the venue makes all the pictures look so magical). If you want your wedding to be one of a kind and executed by truly dedicated professionals I would definitely recommend this venue.

This venue is amazing and was the perfect backdrop for our wedding day. The staff is on point, the location is awesome and best of all, everything you need is in one place. Getting ready, ceremony, party!! Highly recommend. We also LOVED our photographer (hired him separately) and we have the BEST night time twinkle light photos!!

I absolutely fell in love with the location and overall look and feel. However, be careful if you book too far in advance. They kept making changes to the venue and the furniture offerings. We ended up using an outside rental company so it was not a big deal in the long run. I loved love LOVED our coordinator Elizabeth. She is the only person that kept me sane as things were kind of falling apart near the end. She answered all my emails quickly and worked fast to resolve issues or inconsistencies in our contract. Definitely would recommend and do it over again - just be prepared for a lot of changes. You have to be flexible :)

The moment I walked onto the property at Twin Oaks, I knew it was magical and the perfect place for our wedding on 1/18/18. From the very beginning of my first tour with Michelle Gaytan and the event manager at the time, Leo Portillo, I was made to feel special and completely blown away by the service. My wedding coordinator changed a couple times for different reasons, but Elizabeth Guevara ended up being the one to see us through to our big day. She made it easy to stay on track with planning meetings by letting me know when it was time to set up a date. In the 2 months leading up to our wedding, I had a million questions and felt anxious about little things that I think I was emailing Elizabeth every day if not twice a day and she always responded within an appropriate timeframe and with so much patience. The ENTIRE planning team at Twin Oaks made the wedding planning process easy and straightforward which is exactly what I wanted. When it came to our wedding week, things went even smoother than I could have imagined. I tried to make inventory easy on the setup crew by placing all items in clear storage bins with a list of items in each bin which I think saved a lot of time checking each thing in. Alcohol drop off went great according to my cousin who dropped everything off for us. I was blown away by how every single item I had brought was exactly in its place where I had asked Elizabeth and the team to put it. Not only that, but the venue had been transformed into our own personal heaven on earth with little touches of us everywhere - from the pictures, to the bar menus, to the framed music quotes - everything was where it needed to be. Our guests were in awe of how BEAUTIFUL the venue was. Everyone had a blast exploring the little hidden photo op areas of Twin Oaks. Each area made for a perfect photo moment and our guests loved all of it. The food - to this day we are getting comments about how GOOD the food was at our wedding. We opted for the "stations" with the fried ravioli as a passed appetizer, the sausage kebobs and tomato bisque shooter at their own stations, Santa Maria tri tip, yukon whipped potatoes, veggies, and a chicken dish.The serving staff couldn't get the plated food out fast enough because as soon as they set a tray of plates down, the food was gone. However, I never heard a complaint from any of our guests that they didn't get enough to eat - everyone had enough to eat and was able to go back for seconds or thirds of their favorite dishes. I wish my husband and I could have eaten more, but it's true, when you're the bride & groom you have to expect that you'll be interrupted every 20 seconds during dinner. THANKFULLY, Elizabeth put EVERY single food item on our menu PLUS a slice of our cake and desserts from our dessert table in to go boxes for my husband and I to eat later!!! I nearly cried when I saw the bag of food from our wedding, it was such a nice touch and thoughtful thing to do. The leftovers were just as good the next day if not better. Honestly, I can't think of a single thing that went wrong on our wedding day. And if something did go wrong, my husband and I weren't aware of it at all and it must've been handled by Elizabeth and Leo and the entire team. Twin Oaks will ALWAYS hold a special place in our hearts. The venue was everything I envisioned it to be on our wedding day- romantic, beautiful, charming, and most of all - all about us and the people we love.

The staff were fabulous and very helpful throughout the process but especially on the day off. Our guests gushed over how beautiful it was on the property. It was perfect for photos, enough room to hang out and it was nice to hand off the decorations and plans and have someone else take care of it!

The moment that I stepped on the property, I got chills and just knew that this was THE PLACE for our wedding! Such a beautiful and lush romantic garden, with Victorian accents that was so romantic and enchanting!!! We got so many compliments from our wedding guests that this was the most beautiful wedding venue that they had ever seen! The small vintage details and garden nooks made me fall in love with this place, and the fact that they have loads of vintage furniture for you to rent in invaluable!! Their pieces match the venue perfectly and their flexibility to allow you to customize everything for your entire day is worth every penny!!! They allow you to design your whole day and have very few limitations.. something that is very important to allow brides to have their VISION come true!!! Hands down, the venue was my favorite part of my wedding day... Go tour the place and you will see exactly what I mean.!!!

This venue is the most beautiful place there is an all of San Diego County! I’m the pickiest mother of the Bride there ever was and they did not disappoint!!! During our walk through it was evident that the location, the decor of the venue, and staff were top notch! We were not disappointed with the planning at the wedding,rehearsal, and the attention to detail that the staff gave us during our time there. The food was absolutely magnificent, and the venue breathtaking!!! Our daughter told us that this with her dream wedding and more!!! What more could any parent of the bride want! On the day of the wedding our executive director Ramon was amazing!!! He checked in with us frequently to make sure we were happy with our plans!!! Our wedding coordinator Liz was equally outstanding and made sure our vision was realized!! Thank you to all of the staff there on January 14 th for wedding!! A last minute glitch with the florist not remembering to provide the roses for the Grand Exit was a bit stressful but Ramon and Liz provided a quick alternative that was fabulous !!! We are so happy we chose this venue !!! Really In the end it is the best venue in San Diego!

Everything was perfect. I could have not asked for an easier wedding. The day of corrdinator took the stress out of everything. The place truly is magical

Our wedding was an absolute dream. The grounds are maintained and lush year round. We visited in august, March, May, June, and November for our initial visits and wedding meeting appointments and it was gorgeous and in bloom every time. The staff is very responsive and accommodating. Every detail was addressed and taken care of for a very low stress event for me. The food was SOOOOOOO GOOD! Everyone told me it was the best wedding food they have ever had. Private parking and security was an absolute essential for me and it is included in the cost of the venue. The only thing I would suggest looking out for is that gratuities are not factored into the final price so plan accordingly.

First off, it was a colleague of mine who had recommended this place because it was where she got married last year and because it used to be a schoolhouse. She couldn't stop raving about it and how much she loved it. My then fiance and I were intrigued so we drove 1.5 hours just go to there and see what it was all about. Throughout the tour, we were breathless and loved every inch of the venue. We couldn't stop talking about how amazing it was. When we sat down, we also found out that it's an all inclusive venue that already had food catering and a wedding coordinator included. We basically booked when we sat down after the tour, without any hesitations, even though we had planned to go to other venues after that. (The schoolhouse was a big check off for me, being a teacher and all. :) ) Wedding planning: We met Serena, our wedding coordinator, three times throughout the year and I had inquired many times throughout the year we were planning for all kinds of questions that were always answered with a smile. She even spent about an hour going over the colors of napkins with our parents, smiling and laughing at our color coordination and disagreements. She was totally respectful to our parents and even they loved Serena! Even though there was a hiccup in the beginning, the Twin Oaks staff did their best to clear things up and make sure that I left a happy bride. Pre-wedding: day before, my husband and I loved Serena and her expertise with everything. She was obviously experienced with weddings and gave us a lot of advice on the simplest things like how to hold hands, or face, etc. Serena was just on top of it. Serena was just organized and I loved that she was there to help with anything. We also dropped off everything decor wise that day and Serena made sure to write where I wanted everything to be. Wedding day: We got ready at the hotel and when I arrived to the venue with my bridal party, the venue was absolutely gorgeous. I couldn't have asked for a better day. It was beautiful how everything was coming together. Even though there was a mixup with favors and somehow I didn't have as many favors as I thought I brought, Serena and I had worked it out so that it wouldn't become an issue and she made sure to not freak me out. She had everything handled for it quickly with a smile and I just loved her friendly, bubbly attitude. It really helped to calm me down. When the ceremony was about to start, I found out that I also had a bridal assistant who helped with any of my personal needs (water, food, etc.) She was amazing too! I had asked for a small piece of bread before the ceremony began and later in the evening, she came out with a whole loaf of bread!! Her thoughtfulness was spot on and I was just touched by that. In addition, having Serena there really just helped me be a relaxed and calm bride throughout our wedding. I had a lot of comments of "you don't look tired! You're not tired?" or "You look so calm! You're not bridezilla at all!" and I can honestly attribute my calm and happy attitude to Serena. She is just such an amazing coordinator and I can't say enough good things about her. If you get a chance to have Serena as your wedding coordinator at Twin Oaks, she will make you the happiest bride! Thank you so much Serena for all your help with EVERYTHING. July 1st was magical for Eddie and I, and we can't thank you enough for just making it perfect. Thank you!

The venue is obviously one of the first things you think about when trying to plan a wedding. This process for me was fun but stressful until I walked into Twin oaks. It was so green and beautiful. Romance filled every nook and cranny and I just knew that was where we were going to get married. They were so extremely attentive and answered every single one of my questions because lord knows we all have them. I will say to write everything down!!! They have a lot of weddings that are so different so it is hard to remember everything. They also change their rules from time to time so if you have it in writing it helps getting your way a little easier. Overall the best experience I could have with a venue and anyone would be happy with getting married in such a gorgeous venue.

We absolutely loved our wedding ceremony and reception at Twin Oaks House and Gardens! We were just amazed at how beautiful everything turned out and our guests continue to share how impressed they are with how beautiful everything was. Our wedding coordinator Serena was just awesome! So patient with all our questions and last minute add on's and made sure everything turned out the way we wanted. I truly had my dream wedding, actually it was more amazing than I ever imagined it could be.

Fell in love at the entryway! This venue lent it's magic to our wedding. The staff are impeccable and organized. The only thing I have to complain about was I didn't get any cake or taco bar because they sliced the 7 cakes all up. They also served them without knowing what the flavors were (I'm allergic and my mom is vegan). The taco bar ran out of plates, so we were turned away. Overall, an amazing, memorable experience.

This place was just like my dreams. I felt like a fairy princess getting married here. Everyone raved about how beautiful the venue was. It's a place I'll never forget and loved. On top of that our wedding coordinator Kay was amazing. She helped us with everything and the wedding went with out any problems because of her. I also had a girl help me the whole day. It was perfect and I highly recommend this place. It was like the secret garden. Just beautiful.

We had our wedding at Twin Oaks Garden Estate recently and it could not have gone more perfect! I went to a wedding at this venue about five years ago and from the moment I first saw the gorgeous property, I knew that day, if I ever got married that would be where I wanted to my wedding. It's an absolute dream!! Aside from the obviously stunning, magical property; they make everything so easy!! My big thing when planning a wedding was that I didn't want to deal with a bunch of different vendors - one for linens, one for tables, one for food etc. At Twin Oaks, it's all inclusive! The only vendors I needed to worry about was the photographer, DJ and florist. And they even have recommendations for those vendors if you don't already have someone in mind. I went with one of their DJ recommendations and he was amazing!! As part of the package, you get three coordinating meetings and a food tasting. I worked with Natalie and she was so great! She clearly knew what she was doing, and her calm, easy going but extremely organized manner was exactly what any bride would want to help keep any unnecessary stress down! I didn't have to worry about anything leading up to the wedding or on the actual wedding day. I even had my own bridal assistant the day of! Talk about service! My wedding day went so smooth - we stayed on schedule (I was worried about this as I didn't want anything cutting into our open dance time!), all the day-off staff, Natalie included were fantastic and all of our guests had an amazing time! I still get raves from friends and family about how perfect the day was, how beautiful the venue was, how yummy the food was and how attentive and friendly everyone working was! I want to go back and do it all over! Seriously best day ever and I would highly, HIGHLY, recommend this venue for your wedding! They customize everything to meet your needs!! They are the BEST!

Twin Oaks House and Garden Estate is beautiful from every angle! The venue truly speaks for itself. My (now!) husband and I fell in love with it when we first saw it! We loved the secret garden feel with all of the greenery, flowers, and twinkle lights and the vintage feel from the old late 1800s school house to the incredible bar. It was perfect! We loved the farm tables, mix-matched china, and décor they let you choose from. For the most part, everything was seamless the day of! Our day of coordinator, Serena, was great! She made sure everything was taken care of and that everything was going the way we wanted it to. She was great to work with! There were a few things that didn’t go well, but they were somewhat minor in the grand scheme of things. I didn’t fully know about them on the day of, which is good, but I feel they are worth mentioning. One was our candy bar. We bought 7 types of candy and had 7 jars to put them in, but somehow only 6 types made it out; one type made it out twice and they had them sitting right next to each other. They also didn’t replenish the candy bar like they said they would, so when we went to get candy ourselves, most of it was empty. I thought we were just out of candy and it was that successful, but as it turns out they didn’t replenish it often and we were left with a ton of candy! We were very disappointed, since we so excited about the candy bar and this was one of our main desserts. The other thing was that my husband’s mom and stepmom never got their corsages. One of the other coordinators said she would make sure to get the corsages to them, but they never did. After the wedding, I noticed in pictures that neither was wearing them. When I inquired with them about the corsages, they both said they never got one. This was also disappointing, especially since I knew they were made and we had paid for them. Despite these few things, everything else went very smoothly! They seem to be a well-oiled machine! Serena kept us on time, which was much appreciated! Everything else was perfect from getting ready, to the ceremony, to the reception! It was the most magical day of my life! All of our guests said it was the best wedding they have ever been to! I know a huge part of that is due to the venue! It is truly special! Everywhere you turn, it’s beautiful! Also, everyone loved the food too! If you pick Twin Oaks House and Garden Estate as your wedding venue, you will absolutely love it!

Although beautiful, this is an expensive venue and on top of that, the "coordinators" are high pressure sales agents. We looked at this venue for our wedding and I got 5 different phone calls after we toured asking if we had decided yet. Every time they called, they had some new deal going on - it all seemed very scammy to me.

I cannot put into words how incredible this venue is. From the grounds, to the decor, to the staff everything is amazing. We had the honor of working with Selena and Kelsey through our coordination process and they made it entirely stress free and painless. Kelsey was our day-of coordinator and if something did go wrong on our big day, I still have no clue because she is a complete and total rockstar and handled everything. Not to mention the catering was absolutely amazing, and we were able to have a sophisticated menu that even a picky eater like me LOVED. If I had to do the whole day over again I wouldn't change a thing, and it's all thanks to this incredible staff.

My husband and I were married here last weekend and... Truthfully, it's hard to write a review because the whole day left me breathless. The venue provides wedding coordination, and you have the opportunity to meet with the staff three times before the wedding. There is also a culinary meeting in which you get to taste all the foods (included in their wedding packages) and meet with the kitchen staff and chef to review menu choices. The week before the wedding, the venue and culinary staff followed up with me to make sure everything was on track. The day before the wedding, we had a rehearsal and met with our day-of coordinator; I left feeling assured and prepared for our wedding day. On June 4th, I arrived at the venue with my maids and we were met by the bridal assistant who told me to "Boss her around!" She was lovely. So helpful, but not pushy, and helped me with all sorts of things on the big day (including holding my wine while the photographer took pictures and helping me carry my big, poofy dress!). The wedding coordinator and quality assurance manager checked in with me and my husband throughout the day to make sure things were going according to plan, letting us know if measures were taken when plans changed, and were overall attentive without being bothersome. All in all, we felt that we were in good hands. I think many negative reviews come from a lack of communication. If you are looking for someone to plan your wedding for you, then you may be disappointed. I am an involved bride and checked in periodically with my florist, DJ, photographer, and the venue to make sure everyone was on the same page leading up to the big day. I found that keeping the venue appraised and up-to-date throughout the wedding process really better equipped me and the staff in having a smooth and beyond-satisfactory wedding day. Truly, I can't thank Twin Oaks House and its marvelous staff enough. We couldn't be happier; the day went off without a hitch and we are so grateful!

Fairytale Venue This venue was beyond anything I had ever imagined, and we truly had the most amazing wedding we could have ever hoped for. My husband & I had looked at 8 venues before this one. Luckily a family friend had been to a wedding here & recommended it. The second we pulled up the driveway, I knew that this was it. I was so nervous the entire walk through, because I thought there was no way it was within our budget. I was so happy I was wrong!! We booked an off season month ( March) and a weekday (Thursday) and the pricing was perfect. Plus it's pretty much all inclusive! There were no extra add ons that were unexpected like we had found at other venues. Also includes 3 coordinators for the wedding day, something was was definitely not included at other spaces we had looked at. We booked that day! (As a side note to couples nervous about booking on a weekday, since we were too - only 10 of our guests weren't able to come. Most everyone made it work & just made a long fun weekend out of it :) ) My husband & I both work at a resort & see weddings everyday. We wanted something different than the beach, a golf course, winery, and something super GREEN! This venue is ALL green, twinkle lights, has chandeliers through the trees, no buildings to be seen whatsoever. Truly the most romantic, fairytale like venue we were looking for. It's beyond anything we could have hoped for. The staff is superb. From our first encounter to the day of our wedding, everything was so easy & stress free. You don't just get one contact, any time you call/email, anyone is able to respond & is familiar with your file. Our main day coordinator Vanessa was AMAZING! So sweet & helpful with all my last minute annoying bride emails, and the day of made me feel so at ease, and kept everything flowing & on track. I also had one other coordinator in our bridal suite ( I forget her name :( ) that was so amazing about always keeping our champagne coming, even through pictures, and even helped fluff out my long train & veil right before my main walk down the aisle. I was so grateful for that!!! :) The food was phenomenal! We wanted to do something different than the basic steak, chicken or fish. The chef was extremely flexible and was excited to give us a different menu of gourmet sliders, fries and mac n cheese with appetizers like chicken empanadas and fried ravioli. Our guests LOVED it!! They are also known for being totally flexible with alcohol & allow you to bring your own, and just charge a bartender fee. So we bought wholesale wine and beer and their bartenders were awesome. We were allowed to use the second, back-up bar as a photo booth with our own props and Polaroid camera to save us money and still have a photo booth at no extra cost. That was VERY cool :) Of course we didn't get to enjoy our amazing food as much as we would have liked to since guests were pulling us every which way, but Vanessa boxed up a VERY large amount of a little bit of everything, which we were so happy for, and ate the amazing leftovers everyday before we left for our honeymoon (so awesome not having to cook! :p ) All of our guests have been telling us it was one of the most beautiful & amazing weddings they have ever been to. We had the most amazing time as well, and are so grateful to everyone at the venue who made our most special day so beyond magical!

Twin Oaks did such an amazing job! Jamie was helpful and made the day incredibly easy. We just showed up to our wedding and had the best day of our lives! We would highly recommend Twin Oaks to anyone wanting a customizable venue that is also very inclusive. The planning committee made making all the little decisions easy and executed all of the day of set up/break down so we didn't have to think about anything. The only hiccup we encountered was that they hadn't laid out enough chairs in the ceremony site and had to postpone the start time so they could pull out more. It ended up being fine because we were running very late getting to the ceremony but was a minor overlook. Overall it was a beautiful and very fun day and we loved every minute.

Words can not express just how beautiful this venue is. I fell in love when I saw it online. I thought it was going to be out of our price range and almost didn't even go to look at it. After looking at a few other places, and only liking those places my fiance suggested we go at look at Twin Oaks. It's even more beautiful in person. There are so many cute little touches through out, it feels like you're in a fairy garden. We told them what our budget was and we were open to off season and weekdays. To our surprise we were able to book Twin Oaks! 3/9/17 was our wedding day and it was more than perfect! They give you 3 meetings leading up to your day to make sure you are on track with planning. But they are available through phone or email whenever you have a question. The caterer they use has some of the best food we ever had. They also give you a cutting cake as part of your package. Which was perfect because we ended up doing a dessert bar, so we were able to get the traditional cake cutting pics. Vanessa was our day of coordinator. She was so sweet and on point with everything. She made sure everything ran smoothly(which it did), made sure I had everything I needed, and was a pleasure to work with. Everyone at Twin Oaks is professional and friendly. They gave me my dream wedding!!

Words cannot express the beauty and ease of Twin Oaks House and Garden Estate. Although, we ran into a problem early on with our date being double booked, the venue went above and beyond to compensate us and provided a wedding better than we could have imagined. All of our guests were in awe of the venue and said the dinner was absolutely delicious. We chose to have a late night mac&cheese bar and a cookie bar for dessert; both were huge hits with the guests! Throughout the planning process, the venue provides you with three meetings with wedding coordinators to keep your planning on track and to help you with any questions you may have. They were incredibly helpful and we loved Kelsey, who was our coordinator for the rehearsal and the wedding day. Everything went on without a hitch and we would HIGHLY recommend this venue. Their prices are more than fair for what they offer! Chairs, tables, linens, food, set up and take down of your decor and coordinators are ALL INCLUDED!!! We even got a personal assistant, in addition to the coordinator, to help us with any day of needs...she even held our drinks for us an followed us around during our photographs with them! The bar tenders are also fantastic! If you live in Southern California, you cannot go wrong with Twin Oaks House and Garden Estate!

I fell in love with Twin Oaks House and Garden the moment we set foot there. I truly believe that this was one of the best choices that we made for our wedding. First, the grounds are beautiful, positively magical. Second, they take care of SO MUCH. We were planning our wedding from a distance and having their coordination team help us with all of the details was key. I thought I would be much more stressed out, but they handle everything like pros (because they are pros) and we had nothing to worry about. I'd like to give a special shout out to Kelsey, who I met with at 2 of my 3 coordination meetings and she was our rehearsal and day of coordinator. She is AMAZING! She's like a wedding ninja - sneaking around making sure that every detail is perfect! Also, Chef Billy! We had such a fun time at our food tasting and everything was so amazing it was hard to choose which dish we liked best...but we did choose...and our guests raved about how good their meals were! I'm so happy with everything the Twin Oaks House and Gardens has to offer and I can't recommend them enough!

Wow, they did everything for us. It was amazing. you meet with them one on one three times but you can call and email them any questions you have. They go through everything to every detail. It was perfect. Kelsey did an amazing job. From decor to food to linens etc it went perfectly. They have so many different items to choose from. It was perfect and everything went according to the plans. I would highly recommend Twin Oaks garden Estate.

I had my wedding at Twin Oaks Garden on June 2, 2016. It was absolutely magical! It was a destination wedding for us and Twin Oaks could not have done a better job organizing and making it easy for out of towners. This venue is an enchanting garden. I fell in love with it after a Skype tour and loved it more when I finally got to visit. From the beginning, the staff is very informative, helpful, and quick to respond to your questions. I worked with Kelsey and Kay. They are super patient and helpful. The venue offers great upgrades and decor for use. On the day of the wedding, everything went seamlessly. I have been maid of honor twice and a bridesmaid 7 times and know something always goes wrong and was expecting it. But honestly, everything went perfect. I was so impressed by the staff and how prepared they were. Kay was absolutely amazing and was such a sweetheart. She gave me such great tips. I also had Sarahi by my side as my assistant. Both ladies were amazing. They were always around and frequently checked up on me. I am still getting compliments about the venue from my guests. It was beautiful. Even better, the food was amazing. I did a sample plate of the beef filet with crab stuffed prawns and lobster ravioli. My guests said it was one of the best wedding meals they have had. Our bartender was Grant and he was a hit. My guests loved him! My only complaint is that it ended too soon. I would highly recommend Twin Oaks Garden. Thank you for making my wedding day so special and magical. You guys were amazing!!!

I would highly recommend this venue to any couple looking for a beautiful outdoor venue in southern California! We had our wedding here in August and absolutely loved everything about it! The best part of this venue is their staff. They set up three meetings that go over everything you could ever think of and then the day before the wedding you just bring everything and tell them where to put it and they will make it look perfect on your wedding day. And the food is just amazing - we were told by so many people that it was the best wedding food they had ever had. I also loved the rustic farm tables with the mismatched china. They also will make your day of go by so smooth! If anything went wrong I sure didn't know about it! Love this venue and staff. Definitely worth the money!

It has taken me a few months to write this review, but it is long overdue. We had an amazing wedding on 06/13/15 at Twin Oaks House & Gardens! Every person that works there goes above and beyond to guarantee that the bride and groom have a spectacular wedding, beginning with the planning and up to the very last second of the wedding day. Kelsey, Dana, Haley, and Kay helped us every step of the way and were friendly, kind, supportive, courteous, and professional. I could go on, but there aren't enough words to express our gratitude! I want to thank everyone at Twin Oaks for helping us to have our dream wedding!

This was THE BEST place I could have chosen to get married for several reasons. The ambiance is absolutely gorgeous, romantic, and intimate/private. I didn't want a wedding where others could join / look in so this was perfect. The bridal suite is UNREAL it's so vintage, historic and gorgeous. If you want photos that look like they're from a wedding magazine then this is the place for you. The staff is on top of it! They only do one wedding a day and know the business of weddings in and out. I think I worked with every single planner they have, and every time I called, emailed, or met with them they had all communicated so I didn't have to repeat myself. They were extremely helpful through the whole process whether it was recommending outside preferred vendors (who were great), helping with logistics or reminding me what we had discussed. I was very impressed with their customer service through the 10 months I worked with them, as well as over the moon happy with my day of experience. Almost every attendee at my wedding commented on how amazing the venue was. It's gorgeous and at night the twinkle lights make it look like a fairytale. My day of coordinators were Kelsey and Hannah and they treated me like a queen, and they were so on top of the entire schedule. You can't go wrong with any of them. I didn't have to think of any planning that day, which was a big relief. The only downside (and it isn't that big of a deal) was that it was NOT long enough. I do wish they were flexible on shutting the bar down at 9:30pm, and ending strictly at 10pm. The day is short as it is so I would have liked to keep the dancing going a bit longer, but other than that...it is a perfect place for a wedding. I highly recommend it.

We recently had our wedding at Twin Oaks Garden Estate and were delighted. The venue is charming....the centerpiece is a schoolhouse built in 1891 filled with antique furnishings. The grounds are covered with twinkle lights, flowers and fountains. You truly feel like you have stepped into a fairy tale when you enter through the ivy-covered trellis. Many of our guests commented on how unique and beautiful the property is. They even allow you to use pieces from their antique furniture collection in your wedding decor. And since they only do one wedding per day, you are not rushed and there is ample parking for your guests. The cost of the venue includes coordination services (3 meetings) as well as a lot of the decor that is an up charge at other venues. They really strive to make it easy for you to design the wedding of your dreams. The bride and her wedding party get to spend several hours before the wedding relaxing in the schoolhouse-turned-bridal suite. This provides a great setting for photos and merriment. They even have a huge mirror with a pedestal step so that you can put on your wedding dress and see it in its entirety. This is not something that you will find at other venues in San Diego county! If you are looking for a venue that provides charm, beauty, and romance, you must go check out Twin Oaks!
