Our guests loved it also. Jeannie and Jim were amazing to work with. They gave us their personal touch and made us feel so welcome. They really went above and beyond, and we truly appreciated it. If you're looking for a wedding venue you've got to use the Lalumondiere, we couldn't have been happier. Our wedding and reception turned out to be so much more than we could have imagined. Thank you Jeannie & Jim! Louise & Drake

Jeannie and Jim, the venue owners and operators are a joy to work with and take great pride in the space, inside and out. Almost 50 years ago, they saved the mill from ruin and it is now a true gem. If you're getting married, and love the idea of an outdoor, rustic dream wedding, look no further than Lalumondiere. I didn't, and cannot be more grateful. Thank you Jeannie & Jim for providing the most amazing space for the most magical day of my life!!!

Weather was beautiful. 2 Pedros played from 1-4 under the tent and we sat out on the lawn and could hear them great. Really enjoyed the music, atmosphere, and wine. They had a pretty nice sandwich and wrap lunch menu and also allowed food to be brought in as well. They charge $12 for a tasting and did let us try one wine for free since we weren't familiar with their wines and were going to buy a couple during the afternoon. I wish they had descriptions of their wines on the wine list and would tell you what grapes were used as well, since they are named things like Old Depot and you have no idea what the wines are. I thought the wines were a little too expensive but since they let you bring food in I guess it balances out. Most of the wines were over $25 a bottle, but we enjoyed the ones we had!

The venue was beautiful, cozy, and the perfect setting for our celebration. Everything was exceptionally clean, tidy, and welcoming. The catering was very affordable, and the food was delicious! We chose the BBQ pork, chicken, and several sides, and our guests couldn't stop complimenting the meal. A special thank you to Chef Brian and the entire staff for being so friendly, accommodating, and attentive throughout the event. They made the planning process easy and helped ensure everything ran smoothly. If you're looking for a beautiful venue with great food and outstanding service, I highly recommend The Terrace at French Village for your next special event!

Everyone talks about their garlic parm fries for a reason. Order them! We also ordered the crispy chicken sandwich with sesame cucumber salad and sriracha mayo, which was so good (we ordered the food to split and both agreed we should have gotten our own chx sandwich). The flatbread was also good, but the fries and chx sandwich were just so much better that the bread was left in their shadow. I can't comment much on the wine as we both ordered mimosas . The grounds were well maintained and the waitress what friendly. Will return.

Food was fresh, delicious and portions were generous. With plans for an outdoor wedding, this venue is prepared for any weather and can quickly prepare for last minute changes. We opted for the outdoor tent. This area has a beautiful backdrop of the lake and vineyard with great lighting in the tent and nearby walking areas. Food and drink is served indoors with plenty of processional space. There is also a separate terrace below the tent for cocktail hour or special gatherings. I would definitely recommend this venue for your special event.

I've visited many times over the years and have even hosted a few celebrations here. The winery continues to evolve, and it impresses me every time I return. The food alone is worth the drive. I ordered the wood-fired sausage pizza, and it was absolutely delicious. I would put it up against pizza from any restaurant in St. Louis or on The Hill. The cheese blend was perfect, and the thin crust made it satisfying without feeling too heavy on a warm day. I highly recommend it. There was also a great live music duo playing, along with several special events that added to the festive atmosphere. I saw birthday celebrations, including a 70th birthday party at the Lakeside Pavilion, as well as a bridal shower and a wedding reception. Even with so much happening, the staff was friendly and attentive, and I didn't have a long wait for my food. There are plenty of unique spaces within the property. Some are for private events, but there was plenty of room open to the public so you could be right in the middle of the action or you could find a little peaceful corner by the grapevines. Villa Antonio is such a lovely place to spend an afternoon. It is well worth the short 35 minute drive from Webster Groves.

The owners were there the entire time and were friendly and accommodating with various requests. Barn venues for weddings are all the rage and this location was very impressive. First impressions when arriving... wow, clean, organized and impressive details everywhere. The wedding service was performed here. Valley Farms had a nice outdoor area set up overlooking pastures. If the weather was bad there was an option to bring it inside. The main barn for the reception looked to have been built for receptions. Big enough to accommodate probably over 200 guests with room for DJ and a large head table. Prior to the reception, there was an outdoor bar with seating everywhere. Here the wedding had appetizers and cash bar. Only ding was the option for liquor, beers and wines. (Barefoot wines...not exactly high quality). They had a few animals out and a tractor hay ride (without hay) to take the wedding party out for pictures. A nice area for a bonfire once the sun went down and temps hit 50's which was a lot of fun. I don't have the cost, but in the wedding reception market, it's competitive but compare apples to apples. In the end, Valley Farms was very impressive in the setting, atmosphere they created for an outdoor, barn feel and everything looked brand new and well taken care of. You can see the pride and attention to detail the owners have.

The pricing was also amazing compared to everywhere else we looked. Bridal suit was beautiful, grooms room was perfect for the boys, and restrooms for guests were clean and stocked with a variety of supplies. Wonderful selection of drinks at the bar. Would pick Valley farms 1000 times over!
