McConnell Estates Winery - Elk Grove, California

McConnell Estates Winery was the most beautiful and perfect venue for my husband and I! We got married in September and the vineyards were full and beautiful. All throughout the venue were so many beautiful places for photos. The entire venue from the bridal suite, groomsmen suite, ceremony area, cocktail are, and the barn for the reception was stunning.

We booked the venue quite early due to the pandemic and Halie helped us throughout the entire year and a half leading up to the big day. She was super responsive and always had the answers or would get them in a timely fashion. The venue was flexible with allowing us to bring up decorations the day before at the designated rehearsal time.

We got to try the wines prior to the wedding day and Halie allowed us to flex our choices due to our unique food choices.

All around the venue was beautiful and the staff were great to work with!

Beautiful grounds, we really enjoyed spending the evening at their summer concert, the staff is very friendly and their Sangria wine was perfect over ice for the weather. We will definitely be going back.

Great!! But heads up that for concerts everyone brings a tall camping chair anyways even if the instructions say to bring a low, beach-type chair.

Bottomless mimosas and we didn't have a reservation. They were super accommodating and gave us a table for 2 hours. Be sure to call ahead for reservations. The grounds are beautiful and the staff is fabulous. This was our first time visiting and we for sure will return again soon (with reservations 🤪).

Attended a concert here recently. Venue was poorly organized to the point that I watched the owners be very rude to a elderly woman and her son because 2 chairs beside them were moved slightly to allow 2 more chairs to sit without being in walkway. The guy who started yelling at them continued to allow him and his party make gestures at them most of the evening. There was plenty of room for everyone comfortably. Very unnecessary.

We have been wine club members here for years. Decided to throw a last minute baby shower for a coworker here. Originally planned for 11 guests to come. However 6 coworkers got out of class early and decided to come late. READ THE FINE PRINT. If you have more than 14 guests they will charge you $10 a person in addition to the food and wine we purchased. I have never heard of a place that charges per person. We cancelled our membership and will be bringing our business elsewhere. It is crazy to charge an additional $180 to drop off some wine bottles and cheese and crackers at a table outside. I even had to go inside to ask for a menu and go back inside to place the orders. Customer service was horrible sadly when I called the next day with questions. There are so many other wineries in the area that do not have hidden extra charges.

Thoroughly enjoyed myself here this weekend. Service was excellent and the wine was fantastic. I enjoyed the sangria, its a little different than typical sangria- I can't put my finger on what it is but it's still really good regardless. We also had the strawberry and raspberry sparkling wines which were super tasty! Not to sweet but flavorful. We had the meat and cheese tray- nothing fancy about it- you have to assemble yourself and the cheese is whole.
