Testimonials
Wedding Review 10/10
Truly had a 10/10 experience at 7 vines and vineyards. I was just married there on 5/9/2025 and felt like the ENTIRE staff at 7 vines went above and beyond to ensure that my day was perfect!! I had two day of coordinators Shannon and Lynn who took care of all my wedding day needs. They were both SO KIND and SO KNOWLEDGEABLE! I felt that from booking the venue to the actual wedding day, the director of hospitality, Lorah, made sure that all my questions were answered and guided me through the entire planning process. Thank you!!!! I had no worries or concerns on my wedding day and felt truly taken care of and looked after!! The venue is absolutely stunning and all my guests loved the wine that was served at the wedding. We worked with Brie catering company, Flore inspired, Encore events for the linen, DJ Craig from WTD, and Lily Lancaster photography and each person made our day PERFECT. We will truly never forget this day. It was so beautiful. Thanks again!!! Jon
Beautiful Venue!
Lorah and her team at 7 Vines went above and beyond to ensure everything at our wedding was absolutely perfect! From the start of our planning of just searching for a venue, the team at 7 Vines was the most transparent about costs and details than any other venue we looked at. Throughout the planning process, Lorah was always available to answer any questions we had or address any concerns and even asked certain questions that helped me better prepare for the day. Leading up to our wedding day, Lorah met with us a few times both over the phone and in person to ensure all day-of details were aligned so we had no worries on our wedding day. Our actual wedding day was well organized, and the entire day flowed smoothly. We’ve received numerous compliments about how beautiful the whole wedding was. I would definitely recommend 7 Vines and Lorah to any future bride looking for the perfect wedding location! Amie
Amazing Experience!
We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect experience and wedding day! Lorah and her team are fantastic and ensured our day ran smoothly, down to every last detail. They are a very well oiled machine! Looking back, I didn’t have to think about one single thing on the wedding day, besides enjoying our wedding!
The venue itself is also so beautiful! We are still getting comments about how lovely everything was! We had great food from their preferred vendor list (we chose Creative Catering by Molly) and the live band entertainment with Nate Hance and Champagne Mix Tape was phenomenal!
Thank you for making our day so special! Krissy
The perfect venue!
An absolute dream of a day! We could not have chosen a better venue. Everyone at 7VV was incredible to work with, especially Lorah Palmer. Lorah was very organized, extremely responsive, professional and fun! She was on top of everything making sure we had a smooth sailing day. Looking back I am so appreciative of her organizational skills because it made the time leading up to the wedding, and the day of the wedding, stress free. The venue is absolutely beautiful. We are so excited to know we can go back to the vineyard to visit, enjoy a glass of wine and reminisce for years to come on our big day. Could not recommend this venue more! We continue to hear great feedback from our guests on how much they love the venue. Megan
Amazing Winter Wonderland Wedding Reception at 7 Vines!
We had our reception at 7 Vines and could not recommend this venue enough! Lorah went above and beyond on our wedding day to make it such a smooth evening for us. We loved how everything turned out and can't thank Lorah enough for her help with planning and all of the small details that she helped us sort out. We received so many compliments from guests on how beautiful the venue was as well as how much fun they had. We had the Christmas decorations up and this added a great addition to our celebration. All of the recommended vendors were great as well. Ally
