Galway Downs Wedding Venue In Temecula
Galway Downs is in the heart of wine country with stunning views of lush greenery and gardens in every direction. This property is HUGE and has two separate getting ready areas for you and your partner. So you don’t need to stress over running into your partner beforehand unless you are planning a first look like these two did! This is easily one of the best venues in all of Temecula and serves such beautiful backdrops with never ending breathtaking views.
All About Jean & Michael
Michael and Jean met during college at Michigan State University and now live in LA. Jean is close friends with Michael’s older brother and that’s how they ended up meeting. They were both in long term relationships when they met and they believe fate brought them together. Jean told me Micheal is her best friend and the nicest person she’s ever met. *cue the tears* These two love going on movie dates and are HUGE on travel. I love when my clients share all the details about them with me! Check out their Downtown Laguna Beach engagement here.
First Looks & Private Vows
Jean and Michael decided to do a first look before the ceremony and read their vows privately to one another. This is such a special moment and great for all my couples who are a bit more private or don’t think they can make it through their vows in front of everyone. First looks are also great if you want to get a majority of your romantic and group photos done before the ceremony.

A Special Officiant For A Special Day
Jean’s dad officiated their ceremony, which was such a special touch and made it 10X more emotional for everyone. They also were able to have their dog included in their ceremony and he was in a ton of the photos. I also recommend my couples add in all these extra special touches that mean something to them. It adds such a personal touch and the memories of that will always stand out against the rest.
It’s All In The Details
The details of cocktail hour and the reception were amazing!! This was such a classic and elegant wedding from the colors to the extravagant florals. Every detail was jaw dropping.
