Jeriko Estate was amazing for our special day. The winery and grounds created the perfect vibe for our ceremony and reception. Rustic with the right amount of elegance. After the beautiful courtyard ceremony, we toasted with Jeriko Estate’s amazing Brut Rose under the 100-year-old olive tree. Everyone loved the wine bar and the outside covered arbors overlooking the vineyards. The large press room was awesome for our reception dinner and dancing and saved us from the warm summer afternoon heat. One of the best parts of having our wedding at Jeriko was the onsite lodging. The wedding party stayed in the main Jeriko house that sleeps seventeen and other guests booked the casitas and homes on the property. Jennifer and the rest of the Jeriko staff made our wedding stress free and were a delight to work with. We highly recommend Jeriko estate if you’re planning a special day!

Got the wonderful opportunity to get married here May 24th. Everything from meeting Yazmin and her family was such a joy! It was such a beautiful experience to watch this place grow into such a beautiful venue. It's a one-stop-shop! Food, decor, flowers, coordinator and many other things! Yazmin was such a joy to work with and made the process so easy. Everyone who works on the grounds are absolutely amazing and kind. The house is beautiful, clean and spacious. The view was amazing! Seeing the horses run around, the flowers in bloom, the water from the fountain and more was amazing!

Awarded Best of Zola
Stunning 100+ year old house, was home to one of the original wine pioneers of the region. Gardens are beautiful, perfect setting for 100 person event or smaller more intimate gatherings in the home. Affordable from every perspective, it is permitted to bring in your own beverages, catering and other vendors which saves a bunch! Most venues require the renters to use their vendors and buy their beverages which adds up to a lot, quickly. We used Wine Country Paella who were so amazing! Hidden gem, new management who are great to work with. Unlikely to be hidden for much longer.

The pricing on here is wrong. The venue fee alone is almost 30k. Then the food and beverage minimum is 50k but if you have 150 guests you will spend more like 80k. Plus there is a service fee of at least 13k. So BEFORE photographer, footwear, videographer, band, decor etc. you’re already at around 123k.
