We had been DIY-ing a renewal-of-vows ceremony for my parents and with about a month to go realized…read morewe really needed a coordinator. Lina stepped up for us and helped put together a FANTASTIC party. She transformed a businesslike boardroom into a magical place for a ceremony. She provided the tables, chairs, curtains, most of the decorations, and did the floral pieces as well. She coordinated with our vendors and helped make the ceremony and luncheon one that my parents and their guests will remember forever. In addition to all the setup and coordination, she suggested a photo booth that would print out photos right there that all our guests enjoyed. We could not have done it without her and would gladly recommend her to anyone.

Once we eventually got our photos back we could see just how badly she had done. She used fake flowers when we paid for real, used the literal cheapest decor everywhere possible. We were sold a dream and were left with unlit tacky candles, plastic walls, exposed sand bags and BARE minimum decor. Practically everything she did for us was CHEAP and TACKY. She lied to us about having "a team" when it was just her husband and son that evening. When we reached out for a refund she agreed (clearly she knew she didn't do a good job) but when it was time to pay us she ghosted us for a year despite multiple efforts. Stay far away!!!

Such a beautiful venue for weddings. This review is based on being an invited guest to a wedding…read morethat took place here, April 25th. The grounds are just sooo beautiful especially when their roses are in bloom. The ceremony area has two areas. One area faces the water and the other is more of a greenery view which both are just wonderful, you don't have to worry about the sun being in your eyes. The bar and buffet were placed right outside the reception area which was kinda nice so the long lines doesn't get in the way of the tables and dance floor. Loved the large glass chandeliers and draped curtain/tent vibes. Food was sooo good. I heard they made their food at the location so it nice and fresh. Tri tip, salmon mash potatoes and gravy with green beans, feta apple spinach salad and bread with butter was the menu. Drinks were white and red wine, beer and cocktail of choice was a berry sangria which was my favorite.

A Dream Venue for Vendors and Guests!…read more I had the pleasure of being a dessert vendor for a weekend wedding at Lakeview Estates & Winery and I also attended the event as a guest. From both perspectives, I can honestly say this venue is exceptional. As a vendor, I felt incredibly supported. The staff was kind, helpful, and extremely accommodating - offering clear direction, checking in throughout the day, and making sure I had everything I needed to set up and serve with ease. It's rare to work with a venue that treats vendors like valued collaborators, but Lakeview truly did. As a guest, I got to see another level of excellence. The entire event ran seamlessly. Last-minute changes (like additions to bar and food service) were handled quickly and without a hitch. The staff was attentive, well-coordinated, and clearly experienced at handling all the behind-the-scenes details that make a celebration flow beautifully. Special shout-out to Melanie, who was nothing short of phenomenal. Her coordination of extra services and flexibility made the whole day feel effortless for everyone involved. The venue itself is stunning, but it's the people who make it unforgettable. I would absolutely recommend Lakeview Estates & Winery to anyone planning an event - whether you're booking, attending, or working it!

Tucked away in Clarksburg, this woman-owned winery is charming and intimate. The parking lot is small (around 15 cars), but it's conveniently located right off the main road, so it's easy to find. Wine highlights: * 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon (bestseller): rich and layered with ripe strawberry, plum, mocha, and a hint of spice * 2023 Montepulciano (2026 SF Chronicle Gold Winner): light, easy drinking with raspberry, cranberry, and herbal notes * 2023 Durif (my favorite): dark, bold, and complex with blackberry, plum, and a smooth structured finish * 2021 Blanc de Noir sparkling: light, crisp, and bubbly * 2025 Verdejo (new release): fresh, aromatic with peach and citrus Wine flights (any 4) are only $15: great value. They put small stickers to indicate the wine on each tasting glass. Food: Four cheese panini and Reuben panini are solid picks, served with kettle chips or salad. Service: friendly, decent speed Wine club is also very accessible: no membership fee to join, with 3 tiers (4, 6, or 12 bottles), and complimentary tastings for up to 4 guests. Restroom: 2 (two) (all genders): spacious, clean. The atmosphere is what really makes this place stand out: well-manicured grounds with fragrant roses, apricot trees, a charming chicken coop area, and a beautiful open event space with hanging lights. Live music every Saturday and every other Sunday adds to the experience. They also offer private event spaces where you can bring your own food (just purchase their wine), which makes it a great spot for celebrations. Overall, a perfect little weekend escape if you're looking for a relaxed, intimate winery experience. Bonus: they even have a cozy corner dedicated to adoptable cats: each with their own name and personality profile. Currently 3 boys and 1 girl, $150 per cat.

The waitress took it back once I showed her the bottom, but it never should have made it to our table to begin with. They replaced it, but that was also disappointing.

My husband and I used An Impressive Event five years ago for our wedding and, to this day, we still…read moresay that investing in her assistance was the best money we ever spent on our wedding. If I recall, that's what we said as we drove away from the reception. Karen is * budget conscious - she respects your need to keep to your budget and will help you work within those parameters. * respective of different cultures and ideas - she helped us create a unique theme and made sure to respect our church's requirements for the ceremony. Our church had dealt with pushy planners and were concerned about being run over by another one. Karen turned around their impression and made everyone on staff at ease. * happy / peppy / energetic - there WILL be days when you somehow can't handle the whole planning process and she's there to remind you of the end goal. When your wedding dress shop closes after you paid full price (the ONE vendor I chose on my own!), she is there with backup plans and resources and consolation chocolate. * organized and prepared - no matter how anal the bride / groom may be about things, details get left behind and Karen's expertise will keep you on task. Her attention to detail is impressive; we thought we were her only clients while she helped us during our wedding planning. We were shocked to hear that there were other couples she was assisting because her support and availability were amazing. * connected within the industry - her contacts and reputation garner great vendors and good deals. She can help you negotiate with your vendors to get the packages that reflect your actual needs. I cannot say enough good things about her assistance. Having her along with the wedding planning kept me sane and helped me from second guessing my choices. I never felt like a stranger was involved and never felt like it was anything but my wedding. If you're unsure about taking the step to hiring a planner, use her Getting Started package to get a feel for the fit. We did that and it made the decision to move forward oodles easier. When we celebrate a milestone anniversary, she will be the first person I call.

She kept my vendors in line, made sure the venue was set up right and kept me calm after my MOH walked out the morning of the wedding! I dont know what I would have done without her. She was extremely professional, timely and so on-page with what I wanted for MY day! She made sure everything was in it's proper place, and that everything made it home after the wedding safely. I cannot speak highly enough of her. She was worth every cent and then some (she was very affordable, by the way) and if I ever need to coordinate an event again, I will surely be contacting Karen. Anyone looking for a coordinator would be a fool to pass her up!

The man (I forgot his name) who came to set it all up was very nice as well. Some of the balloons at the bottom eventually popped but it was ridiculously hot when we had the party and considering how high the temperature was, most of the balloon garland stayed intact. The pricing is also not ridiculously high compared to others. Cons: Communication could have been a little better. The owner, Jessica, is sweet. We did, however, encounter communication mishaps such as delayed responses and some confusion and part of it was my mistake as I still haven't updated my Yelp account to my current legal name. We got that straightened out but communication still didn't improve much. I understand we're all busy (especially their weekends) but I wanted all the details and planning squared away ahead of the event to get it out of the way. It was anxiety-inducing for me. Overall, it was good working with them.

We also worked with the Day of Coordinator, Felicia, who was also amazing from the beginning! They work fantastic together. Our Wedding day did have discrepancies in timeline due to guests having to travel from Church to Venue, this caused delays but we were not stressed at all. Felicia took care of everything and worked with Drew the entire day to stay on top of whatever timeline worked at the point. The day would not have been the day it was without them!
