Working with the owner Tena Steen was a pleasure. She made access extremely easy and was great to work with. The venue would easily hold 80 for a sit down dinner with a space for those that want to get their groove on to music. We had a 70th birthday party there today and it was quite a success!

I am not damaging your business. I spoke the truth…read more We did agree on many things. Some of this would include the empty vases above the mantle, and the snacks and drinks (in the contract) for the bridal suite and grooms suite. The groom and groomsmen weren't even taken to the suite. The contract was for you to be there. My decision in choosing Villa Franca had as much to do with you as the beauty of the property. I trusted you with one of the most important days of my life and it wasn't important enough for you to attend. You worked with me for months and then a month before my wedding you decided that going to Florida with your husband was more important. The original issues are the same. The bartender did not do his job well. The venue is ill-prepared for rain. Things that should have been setup were not. The fact that you keep reiterating that they were agreed upon just makes it worse! Yes, they were agreed upon. But the venue didn't follow through. I apologize profusely if there was a broken lamp. I also do not know of any liquor, and I do truly apologize for that as well. You should know me well enough that I would be humiliated if these were true. You have lost my trust so I'm not sure to believe you or if you are accusing me of things to undermine my review. I will say again, the coordinator and your staff were fantastic. I hold you accountable because you are the owner and I signed a contract with you.

My son and daughter-in-law were married at the Villa Franca Estates on Saturday, May 20, 2017. The…read morewedding venue is absolutely beautiful and Ginger Black and her staff were great to work with. Everything that we discussed for the wedding was completed as requested and they went above and beyond to make sure Mackenzie and Taylor's day was special. Even though we had extra guests attend, they quickly set up extra tables and place settings to make sure all guests had a seat. She was always there asking if we needed anything and made sure our requests were honored. The 3 new chandeliers inside the draped tent are breath taking. We all loved them. I would recommend this venue to others who are planning a special wedding in a country setting. Nora Patterson-Proud mother of Mr. and Mrs. Taylor Patterson (Mackenzie Holshouser-Patterson)

Lovely place for a wedding! Cyndee was very accommodating with every wish we threw her way and had…read morethe whole place looking like a dream for our wedding. They also let us choose our own caterer which helped us save so much money. There are so many gorgeous locations for a ceremony, and the reception hall is spacious and filled with natural light! Once the Sun goes down, the entire venue transformed into a romantic dream with string lights draped all over! We also stayed overnight before the wedding and made use of the hot tub! It was so worth it to wake up the day of our wedding and already be there. I only give it 4 stars instead of 5 because the grounds aren't super disability-friendly and communication was a bit difficult and felt more confusing than it had to be, but still a lovely place worth the price!
