Southern California Brides - October 2020

Dominique, on June 19, 2019 at 2:10 AM Posted in California Planning 1 13
Hi Everyone! I’m getting married in Temecula, Ca next October. I’m so indecisive about everything from weather, itinerary times, colors, etc. Hoping to connect with brides going through the some pain points so we can discuss all together Smiley smile.

    Yay! Which venue? We had our local reception at Monte De Oro in June 2017. A few tips about a wedding in Temecula:

    * Decorate with WIND in mind. Tends to pick up in the late afternoon. Think wide centerpieces and a seating chart or HEAVY place card holders. Otherwise, decor will FLY off the tables

    * If you're having a band, ask if you need a generator or what their system can handle. Or ask your band to talk to the venue

    Can you visit the venue this October? The vines will be bare but will give you a good idea of what the vineyards look like off-season. You can also look at indoor options at your venue if it happens to rain/horrible winds. Choose any colors you wish unless your venue has some strong colors then choose a palette that won't clash.

    Thank you! I welcome all the tips I can get. I LOVE Monte De Oro, it's gorgeous. You're amazing, adding your suggestions to my little wedding notebook. We're having it at the Stone House at Temecula Creek Inn. I'll also add a trip down for the weekend in Oct 19', as a kickoff Smiley smile. Luckily the venue is greenery and trees so any color will go. Did you have any vendors you'd recommend for Temecula?

    I've seen pics and Temecula Creek Inn looks lovely! Love all their greenery and rustic charm. Have you Googled their wedding pics? So many colors look good there: slate blues, blush palette, or lovely greenery & white (if greenery option you could use a plant theme like rosemary, lavender or olive leaf--so wine country!).

    We only had a reception there so we didn't use ceremony vendors. But here are a few vendors I recommend: The Kilted Cake, Abbey Party Rents, and if you need crooner/American songbook bands I can recommend a few.

    Temecula Creek Inn is gorgeous! It was on my venue list but was unfortunately out of our budget. Do you have any other vendors booked so far?

    My wedding is on Nov 3, 2019 so it’s coming soon!! I pick up my wedding dress today and I haven’t seen it in 5 months so I’m kind of nervous and excited at the same time. 😬😁

    Ahhh that’s great! So happy to hear you’re also getting at Stone House it’s so beautiful. I took a long pause on posting and searching. We have nothing booked haha.


    I’ll take all of the suggestions ! What vendors are you using? Also, what is your color theme?
    Thank you in advance Aimy.

    Haha! It is overwhelming, I took a little break as well after I booked the vendors and now I am back at it making wedding invites! You have time so no worries!


    My color theme is very neutral- ivory, cream, nudes, blush and hints of champagne and gold. My bridesmaids are wearing beige-y dresses.


    These are the vendors I booked and they have all been wonderful to work with so far!
