VENUE SEARCHING

If you can plan your little trips to avoid traffic, you can make it to Temecula from San Diego in just over an hour. This made it an ideal semi-destination wedding location for us.

I did several scouting trips, but once we got to GBV and met Christina and Ken, and interrogated a couple who had been married there, we stopped looking.
After a great experience with GBV, I very strongly recommend at least checking it out.

A few other places were on our radar.
I'll highlight some pros and cons, in my book, but since this is a very personal decision, my advice is to get yourself there, walk around a few places with a glass of wine and the owners, and you'll just know. Some things that we didn't particularly care for (astroturf, other weddings onsite) may not be a big deal for others.
