Wine-country charm without the fus | Wedding Planning & Day of Coordination
Wedding Planning & Day of Coordination in Livermore
Livermore is one of the Bay Area’s most underrated gems for weddings. A place where wine-country beauty meets a relaxed, approachable vibe. While Napa is known for its luxury resorts and high-end wineries, Livermore offers the same vineyard charm in a more down-to-earth, spacious, and budget-friendly way. You still get the rolling hills, sunny weather, and gorgeous golden-hour light, but without the Napa crowds or the premium price tag.
​
What really makes Livermore special is its mix of old-world character and local personality. The area is home to historic wineries like Wente and Concannon, modern estates, rustic barns, and family-owned properties that truly feel personal. Couples love that they can host a chic vineyard wedding or a laid-back outdoor celebration, all within a short drive of the East Bay.
​
As a wedding planner and day-of coordinator at Beyond Lace Events, I help couples make the most of everything Livermore has to offer, whether that’s navigating the different winery venue styles, designing a celebration that matches the relaxed wine-country feel, or coordinating the day so you can enjoy every moment stress-free. If you’re dreaming of wine-country charm without the Napa fuss, Livermore is the perfect place to say “I do.”
Why I Love Livermore
I love Livermore because it’s a wine-country getaway that feels approachable and real. The rolling hills and sunny skies are just the beginning. This is a place where a vineyard wedding can feel relaxed and full of character. Some of my favorite wineries for tastings are Murrieta’s Well, Concannon, Retzlaff, and Wente. For meals, there are so many spots that feel warm and inviting without being pricey, like First Street Alehouse, Sauced BBQ & Spirits, and Campo di Bocce, along with charming downtown cafes and bakeries.
​
One of the best ways to spend a day in Livermore is at Del Valle Lake. Pack a picnic, swim in the water, or simply relax on the shore. Hiking the trails around the reservoir, cycling through vineyards, or enjoying an afternoon outdoors makes this area feel like a perfect blend of wine-country sophistication and laid-back adventure. It’s a place where a wedding weekend can feel elegant or casual, yet every moment is truly memorable.
Garré Vineyard & Winery - Livermore Wedding
Garré Vineyard & Winery is a beautiful choice for a Livermore wedding, offering the perfect mix of old-world charm and modern comfort. Couples can exchange vows on the picturesque Bella Rosa lawn framed by Italian‑cypress trees, enjoy a reception in the elegant indoor event center with hardwood floors and chandeliers, or host a lively gathering on the outdoor patios overlooking the vineyards. Family-owned and welcoming, Garré brings a personal touch, with Italian-inspired cuisine, bocce courts for guest entertainment, and a warm, intimate atmosphere. It’s a versatile venue that makes it easy to create a romantic, memorable wedding full of personality and charm. In terms of affordability, Garré falls into the moderate category.
Poppy Ridge is a beautiful wedding venue nestled in the rolling hills of Livermore Valley, with vineyards, ponds, and scenic landscapes that create a relaxed wine-country atmosphere. Couples can choose an outdoor terrace with stunning valley views or an elegant indoor space with high ceilings and natural light. The venue also offers full-service amenities like tables, linens, and catering, which makes planning easier and helps the day flow smoothly.
​
One of the best things about Poppy Ridge is its affordability compared to other wine-country venues. Starting rates are around $3,500 for the site, and with its all-in-one offerings, couples can enjoy their celebration without stretching their budget. Its combination of natural beauty, versatile spaces, and reasonable pricing makes it a great option for weddings.

Purple Orchid Wine Country Resort - Livermore Wedding
Purple Orchid Wine Country Resort & Spa is a hidden gem in Livermore Valley, tucked into 21 acres of olive trees, gardens, and gentle hills. Couples can exchange vows in the rose garden, under the olive trees, or by the tranquil poolside waterfall, creating a serene and romantic atmosphere for their wedding day.
​
The venue offers both indoor and outdoor spaces, including the cozy and elegant Olive Branch Event Center, and can accommodate up to around 250 guests for outdoor celebrations. The resort feel adds an extra layer of charm, with ten guest rooms, fireplaces, and spa amenities, making it easy to turn your wedding into a full weekend retreat.
​
Purple Orchid is also relatively affordable for a wine-country venue. Its combination of natural beauty, boutique resort amenities, and accessible pricing makes it a great option for couples looking for a memorable, stress-free celebration in a peaceful, picturesque setting.
Wente Vineyards is a beautiful wedding venue in the rolling hills of Livermore Valley, surrounded by vineyards, olive trees, and scenic views. Couples can exchange vows on the open Vineyard Lawn or in the intimate Cresta Blanca Room, with its charming wine-barrel ceiling beams.
​
The venue provides full-service amenities including chairs, tables, linens, glassware, and catering support, making planning easier and the day flow smoothly. Wente is also relatively accessible for a winery wedding, with rental fees starting around $3,000–$6,000 depending on the season, offering a stunning wine-country experience without the Napa price tag.
​
With Beyond Lace Events handling day-of coordination, couples can relax and enjoy the day while someone oversees the timeline, vendors, and all the little details to ensure the wedding at Wente Vineyards goes off seamlessly.
Reinstein Ranch Wedding - Livermore
Reinstein Ranch is a working horse and cattle ranch tucked into the rolling hills of Livermore, and it feels like stepping into a peaceful, timeless countryside. With its old barn, wide open fields, grazing horses, and natural beauty, it makes for a dreamy, laid‑back wedding spot that’s very “authentic ranch” rather than polished estate.
​
Couples can have rustic outdoor ceremonies among the hills and then move into the barn for a cozy reception under string lights that highlight the barn’s aged wood frame.
There are also dreamy spots around fire pits, and areas for guests to hang out and feel like they’re really part of the land.
​
In terms of cost, Reinstein Ranch falls in the moderate price range. What’s nice is the flexibility. You can bring in outside vendors, which gives you more control over style and cost. With Beyond Lace Events as your wedding planner and day of coordinator, I could help you find affordable vendors that will complement the rustic beauty that Reinstein Ranch has to offer.
Murrieta’s Well feels like a beautifully tucked‑away wine-country hideaway, with rolling vineyards, historic stone buildings, and a peaceful, natural setting that really sets a romantic tone. The venue includes a charming Barrel Room with wooden beams and wine barrels, which gives you that rustic, intimate vibe without feeling too “barn-y.
​
They handle a lot for you: the catering is done by Wente Vineyards, using seasonal, regional American dishes that pair beautifully with their wines. For your reception, they provide full amenities, chairs, round tables, china, glassware, and white linens are all built in.
In terms of cost, Murrieta’s Well is fairly moderate for a wine-country venue. They don’t allow outside alcohol (beverages are provided by Wente), which can push prices higher.
​
Overall, Murrieta’s Well is a gorgeous choice for couples who want the elegance of a winery, the charm of a historic space, and a manageable, somewhat inclusive package.
Del Valle Winery Wedding - Livermore
Del Valle Winery is a super-charming, family-run spot in Livermore Valley that feels friendly and laid-back. Their grounds include a lush garden courtyard and a raised gazebo surrounded by lavender, perfect for a romantic outdoor ceremony. For reception, the cozy Barrel Room, with its high ceilings and stacked wine barrels, gives off a rustic-wine-country vibe.
​
What makes it really lovely is the balance between elegance and ease. They offer in-house amenities like tables and chairs, and their wine tastes great. The rental fee starts around $4,000+, depending on factors like the day of the week and guest count.
​
With Beyond Lace Events handling your wedding planning and day‑of coordination, you can just show up and enjoy Del Valle while I handle all the behind-the-scenes stuff.
