Europa Village Wedding Photos In Temecula Wine Country
After photographing Sam and Alicia’s engagement session in Temecula earlier this year, I couldn’t wait for their October wedding at Europa Village Winery. These two were smart, attractive, and started their engagement session with beers at Blackbird Tavern. Basically my ideal subjects. Fast forward to their wedding day and boom: the dance floor was rocking, the beers were getting crushed. Everyone was having a kick-ass time.
Normally I’d go into more detail about how the wedding day flowed. But I’ve got so much work piling up, so here are the cliff notes. Sam had like 18 groomsmen. Maybe it was 16, I forget now, but it was a whole butt load of dudes. I imagine the bachelor party was insane. Alicia looked amazing, and her wedding dress and veil were (insert fire emoji). Yes, this Temecula wedding was the real deal.

Do I Need To Pay A Deposit To Book Europa Village For My Wedding?
Yes. To lock in your wedding date, reach out to the events office and they’ll walk you through everything. The deposit is typically 10% of your total or $500, whichever is higher. That guarantees your date is officially reserved.
How Long Do I Have Access To The Bridal Suite Before The Ceremony?
The bridal suite is available 4 hours before your ceremony starts, giving you plenty of time for hair, makeup, and final touches. General vendor and decorator access to the room or ceremony site is 2 hours prior, so keep that timing in mind when you’re scheduling your other vendors.
