Testarossa Winery

Alex is a true event professional. She coordinated with my other vendors (i.e. caterer, DJ, florist) to execute a seamless event. From the day we booked til the end of the wedding, everything happened exactly as it was planned. She followed up promptly to my questions and accomodated all my requests. I wouldn't hesitate to recomend their services to anyone looking for an absolutely gorgeous site and unbeatable service.

Testarossa made our day not only memorable but also relaxing! They took care of everything for us and made sure we had a great time! Thanks so much!

Testrossa was great location. The only downside is that there were no actual vineyards to take pictures in. There isn't a whole lot of locations at all to take pictues.

The cave ceremony was great although there isn't a logical location for a string quartet.

The brides room was not fancy but fits its purpose.

An evening candelit wedding was perfect. Rustic yet elegant.

There's a picture of this place that's in all the local wedding magazines, where the wedding ceremony takes place in a wine cellar shaped like a tunnel. It's very dramatic and really cool looking. Because of that photo we decided to check out Testarossa Vineyards, located up a windy road in Los Gatos that leads to an historic winery.

You pass through the tunnel cellar room when you enter the winery, and in person it's not nearly as impressive. It would look great for photographs (if taken at just the right angle), but in reality it just empties out into a gift shop. The tunnel cellar room also only can hold up to 80 people, with 3 people on each side of the aisle. You pass through the gift shop to get to the reception room, but it's sort of a gloomy room without a whole lot of light. I think there's an option to have the ceremony or reception on the patio, but that's faced on one side by a chain link fence.

From the fence we saw a tiny pond down below next to the drive with a duck and a swan inside. We rushed down and discovered the swan to be plastic! What a cruel joke.

The prices here were probably the highest (in the $5K - $6K range) of any of the venues we checked out. We immediately knew when we saw it that it wasn't even under consideration. Definitely not worth the price.
