Weddings at Twin Oaks

My husband and I just got married at Twin Oaks this past weekend!! Twin Oaks Golf Course did an amazing job!! Last year in search of venues, we fell in love with the location and layout of this venue. Some of the many positives included: a very responsive catering sales manager- Nicole M. was so great at responding to us and providing us tours and information about the venue. She was very nice and it was clear that she was very knowledgeable about weddings; ample, free parking, renovated ballroom, nice bathrooms; a full bar and kitchen; a beautiful space to add decor to but it didn’t need a crazy amount of wedding decor add-ons to make the space look ready to hosts. These were just the first impressions, but throughout the planning process up until the end of our wedding, Twin Oaks delivered! We and all of our guests loved the food and drink and the service! We want to shoutout to our banquet captain Christian for helping us through the many transitions in the wedding and for keeping the flow of the wedding smooth! They provided so many services all in one and that was soo helpful! For future brides and grooms, something to be on top of is the total cost. It was definitely one of the most reasonable costs out of the 7 other venues we were looking at in San Diego for a party of about 130, however, things just add up so fast and it’s important to prepare for high costs and to be vigilant about the added costs if budget is important to you, and this goes for all wedding services. We appreciate Twin Oaks for being upfront about their costs and definitely very happy with their service and have no regrets in the money spent!

I had the wedding of my dreams at Twin Oaks Golf Course! From start to finish, they were responsive, flexible and kind. I would consider myself pretty particular and they made me feel comfortable and like I was in control the whole time. Jill was extremely responsive and allowed me to view the venue multiple times prior and accommodated scheduling since I live out of state. The space is gorgeous and completely customizable. My husband was really impressed with the attention to detail and service from the staff the day of. Ireland was AMAZING, I mean, AMAZING! She led the rehearsal flawlessly and even placed out all my décor on the day of perfectly. This is place is amazing 😊

Contracted with Twin Oaks in February 2021 and had our wedding June 2022. Since our contracting the venue did some renovations and the venue is just gorgeous - totally recommend! We worked with Jill and she was great to work with. Jill was prompt with communication, paid attention to detail, was very helpful and accommodating and overall really customer service-oriented. The food was incredibly delicious and overall, hosting our wedding there was nothing short of perfect!

I got married at Twin Oaks Golf Course on 8/21/21. This is a FANTASTIC venue with beautiful views. I toured a few wedding venues after I got engaged at Twin Oaks was the clear standout. This venue is a true hidden gem. From the stunning mountain views, beautiful white roses, and breathtaking greenery it will give you the wedding pictures you dream of. You will also get a lot more bang for your buck at Twin Oaks Golf Course. We were able to have the best dinner buffet package and a full open bar which would not have been the case at other venues with our budget. This place is affordable, but gives you the 5-star garden wedding experience. The food is also DELICIOUS. We were blown away at our tasting of how good the food was. Our guests had the biggest compliments to give to the chef on the day of the wedding. The pork loin, chicken piccata, and prime rib are to die for. Twin Oaks Golf Course biggest asset is their catering manager Jill. Jill blew us away right from the start on our tour of the venue. Jill is incredibly professional and accommodating. She worked with me on postponing our wedding due to Covid and helped rearrange the layout multiple times when guests were dropping out (even on the day of). She is always there to answer any questions or concerns you might have. She was quick to respond to emails and was very courteous! The venue has been newly renovated with new paint and flooring that we were very impressed with. They took great care of their facility. With all that being said, my only couple of negatives in this whole 2-year planning process happened on the wedding day. We asked for a few specific things in their getting ready room/clubhouse that were not delivered (coffee, orange juice for mimosas, cheese for the meat and cheese board). Also, the fire in the fireplace that was burning the night of the wedding was way too smokey. We got a few complaints from our guests to put the fire out, but at the point we were told it would make it worse. So, if you’re having a summer patio wedding, I would reconsider having the fire on. All in all, these were just a couple of small things, but everything else was perfect. If I could do it all over again, I would absolutely choose Twin Oaks Golf Course as my wedding venue. It was the perfect spot to celebrate the best day of our lives!

Beautiful venue

The Twin Oaks venue is beautiful, the staff was nice, the food was decent, so why only 3 stars? Pamela, the wedding coordinator that came with the venue was okay. In general, we found Pamela difficult to work with, when we expected her to be accommodating, she was defensive. Pamela clearly has a lot of experience coordinating weddings at Twin Oaks Golf, she is direct, and perhaps it was just a bad match with our personalities. To give some examples: We understood that Twin Oaks does not offer desserts in its packages and found a bakery for our desserts. However, we were getting logistics questions from the bakery about delivery timing and storage available, and so we asked Pamela to coordinate delivery with the bakery. Instead, she gave us a bare minimum of information like “we have a Pepsi-cooler”, we ended up wasting time being the interpreter for the bakery when this should be the responsibility of our coordinator. Another example was the group tasting event, where Pamela specifically told us to give feedback on the food. However, when we mentioned that we preferred the chicken and risotto to be less dry, she jumped to defending the chefs with the excuse that there was a lot of people tasting different foods and that we couldn’t expect the food to be perfect at a tasting. Instead of appreciating the feedback or simply taking notes, she valued the chef's interest more than ours. Some of our family members also reacted to Pamela’s behavior at the rehearsal. During rehearsal we were all in a good mood, greeting the wedding party and having our families there. Pamela was curt, impatient, and put a damper on our otherwise good mood. Even my jolly father-in-law who never has anything bad to say about anyone asked us if she was always like this. As a bride, I understand that there are a lot of things that I needed to be doing at certain times during the wedding. Pamela made me feel rushed to the point where I was unable to enjoy moments because I was being whisked off to some other activity. To be specific, right after we cut our cake and sat down to enjoy our slice, Pamela rushed over and said it was time for the first dance. If I could do it all again, would I have chosen to get married at Twin Oaks Golf? Yes, the venue gorgeous, and the views stunning, and all of our guests raved about the venue. Would I have liked to have known the coordinator better before deciding? Yes. Would I have hired my own day-of coordinator? Yes. If I could do it all again, I still would have chosen to get married at Twin Oaks. The venue was gorgeous and the views stunning. However, I would have liked to have known the coordinator better beforehand. We did not meet Pamela until after we had signed the contracts, and had gotten along great with our first contact, Jill. Because of this, I would recommend hiring a different day-of coordinator.

Think about every wedding venue you have been to. There is something you can always complain about....the food, the service, no views, too expensive, too big, too small, and even the dated ugly carpet. At Twin Oaks, you are not going to complain about ANYTHING! Jill and Pamela make the booking and planning process so incredibly easy. You get to attend the venue a few times before your actual wedding day, map out how the big day will look and even try the food! Once you try the menu they really allow you to customize to your liking. When you arrive on the day of your wedding, Pamela truly ensures a stress free day! She is a total rockstar. The bar and food service was fantastic and all my guests always had a drink or food in front of them. The view alone during the outside ceremony were breathtaking. The mountains in the background were such a different kind of scenery for San Diego, and the white garden roses all around were so romantic and whimsical. This venue makes you and your guests feel special. We wouldn't want to get married anywhere else!

The venue was beautiful! Our day-of coordinator answered our questions promptly. The staff was great to work with!

This venue was perfect, it had everything we were looking for! We loved the ceremony space, the reception room and the patio was amazing! Pamela was very detail oriented and was great to work with. The staff on our wedding day was friendly and professional.

Everyone I talked to leading up to the wedding told me to prepare for something to go wrong on the big day and to not let my expectations get too high. Well, the day came and went and it went Perfectly. Pam and the rest of the staff made sure I had the perfect day. Pam kept to the schedule while also making sure we were relaxed and focusing on the day. The fact that everything was on the same property made it so easy for me and my guests, not to mention the venue is beautiful and the scenery is breathtaking. I highly recommend this venue!

Fantastic service! They had a way to make all of our moments extra special! Thank you guys ❤️

My husband and I loved our venue. It was absolutely beautiful. Jill was extremely helpful and nice. She was great at communicating and reminding us of important dates leading up to the big day. Pamela was helpful at answering questions but took quite a bit to respond to my emails. The rehearsal the day before went well, I would suggest that if a bride has a suggestion no matter what it is, that the coordinator accommodates it without hesitation. Our wedding day went very smoothly. Some suggestions from the bridal party would be to make sure all trash is removed from ceremony and reception area prior to arrival. Our photographer was not given her own golf cart for pictures after ceremony, which we thought was guaranteed especially for safety and time constraints.

Service was great. Planning was easy. Execution was on point! This venue is a great for those who want a private location. We enjoyed our time here. The staff is hands-down by far the friendliest people I met. We enjoyed having our wedding at this venue. They do an excellent job at executing out what you want!

My wife and I had our wedding at Twin Oaks on 9/9/18. We couldn't be more pleased with the overall experience. Pamela was our day-of coordinator and she was excellent. She remained flexible during the event when we needed more time for photos, but was also able to get things on track as needed. Her level of communication was spot on. The food (we chose the Italian buffet) was delicious. We received compliments from all of our guests on how beautiful our choice of venue was. Twin Oaks definitely made it possible for us to have to wedding of our dreams!

Our venue was gorgeous and they took care of everything!

Thank you Thank you Thank you for a gorgeous wedding! My husband and I are so happy we chose Twin Oaks. We can't stop talking about how perfect our big day was—it felt like a dream! Everything was perfectly executed from our first meeting with Jill to show us the property, to our Wedding day with Pamela as our awesome day-of coordinator. Pamela was a lifesaver—she knows everything about weddings, and helped us plan all the technical stuff we never would have thought of. The grounds are just gorgeous, and although the photos online are gorgeous, you have to visit in person to see how beautiful it is. We were married on a warm summer day, but were provided with umbrellas during the ceremony. There is also a lovely breeze that passes by the ceremony site, and our guests were so comfortable. The food is wonderful as well. Get the ravioli as one of your options!! I could write a novel on how happy we are with Twin Oaks Golf Course, but I will stop here. Thank you SO much!! We will recommend you to everyone we know ;) The Werners

I had always dreamed of having my wedding outside. Twin Oaks was the perfect place to have my wedding ceremony and reception. The greenery of this place is amazing! The place where the ceremony and reception take place are also very close together which I liked because it made the wedding more intimate. There are so many wonderful places to take pictures here and the green wall that the sweetheart table is set up at outside is to die for! Our guests also raved about how wonderful the food was and were blown away by the beauty of this location. Twin Oaks also provides a day-of coordinator that is amazing and makes everything easy for you! We had our wedding over the Sumer and the weather of this location is also beautiful during the summer. Not too hot. Light breeze. Just perfect. Highly recommend you check them out and book ‘em!

I had my wedding here at twin oaks everything was beautiful. The coordinator made my wedding day a breeze! I highly recommend

This was the most perfect wedding venue. This venue is absolutely gorgeous and all of our wedding guests couldn't believe how beautiful the view was, as well as the property. Pamela and Jill were incredibly easy to work with and made planning the wedding very easy and enjoyable. They were so kind and organized. On the day of our wedding, Pamela had everything under control and made the whole day go smoothly. The grounds are set up perfectly for an outdoor ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. We are so happy we chose Twin Oaks Golf Course for our wedding!!

We could not of been happier with a venue and staff for our big day. They were there every step of the way and helped with every little detail. Highly recommend having your wedding at this venue!!

This review is for Twin Oaks' wedding services. I am so beyond happy to have had my wedding at Twin Oaks. From the moment my mom, Husband, and I set our feet on Twin Oaks' property, we were in love- with the venue, with Jill, and with Pamela! We met with Jill during our tour, who showed us the grounds and explained all of the different packages and what they included. The prices are so reasonable and include a lot- even an open bar during cocktail hour! We knew immediately that Twin Oaks is where we wanted to have our wedding. The venue is gorgeous-like a homey cottage, with dark wood flooring, white roses, and market lighting. After signing our contract we were in contact with both Jill and Pamela. Both ladies are so professional, flexible, and have great ideas. You can tell that not only is this what they do for a living, but that this is what they love doing. My Husband and I had so many questions- every email was answered very quickly and thoroughly. When our wedding day finally arrived, Pamela took care of everything! Her and her team set up everything, made everything look beautiful. The entire wedding went so smoothly-not a single thing went wrong! Our wedding was everything we had dreamt of-thanks to Jill, Pamela, and their entire team. Our guests raved about every aspect- the venue, the service, the food, the drinks...everything! I cannot thank the whole Twin Oaks team enough for helping our wedding be the best day of our lives.

We had our ceremony and reception here and it was amazing! The coordinator was incredible and made everything flow perfectly. They definitely cater to your needs. I am thankful to have found such an amazing place!

Twin Oaks Golf Course was perfect for our big day! Their remodeled wedding space was perfect for our wedding of 150. They had the best packages which were affordable and customizable. Their Mexican, Baja Buffet was delicious!!!

The best feature is the wedding coordinator, Michelle Brown. She takes care of you and is highly reliable. She will make sure that your event is running without a hitch. We had lots of compliments on the food as well (Italian menu). The ceremony site is fantastic. The only drawback was the clubhouse (garden house) is quite cramped and has low ceiling. Parking is plentiful.

I love this place, it is not only gorgeous but the people there are great. We had a falling out with our first venue and they took us in and helped us out so much! You would love this place if you want an outside venue, but they have an inside room for the reception too.

This is the absolute best kept secret in North County! Beautiful outdoor venue with incredible spanish style patio. The staff was excellent, and the food was impressive (my husband is Executive Chef and even he agrees!!) For all that you got, the price cannot be beat. We would go back there in a heart beat, and would recommend to anyone!

This was exactly what we expected. The staff was super helpful, the food was just how it was during our tasting. This was a great mix between an inside and an outside venue. The food was all served outside while the bar and dancing were inside. The golf course made for a great setting for our pictures as well. Thanks Michelle!

Everything at Twin Oaks was great. Michelle, the coordinator made sure everything was perfect and I had no complaints from any of my guests. We did the hawaiian buffet and the food was very yummy (and there was lots of it). Lots of things come included here that you would have to pay extra for elsewhere - like chair covers, floor length tablecloths, arch, champagne toasts, etc. I was able to use the garden room to get ready in even though they were having a golf tournament the same day. Our event was never affected by the golf tournament and lots of the golfers stopped to congratulate us while we were taking pics. Everything was awesome!

The venue was beautiful for both the ceremony and the reception. Our guests had a fabulous time and remarked how good the food was at the reception. We had an early fall wedding and the weather and grounds were perfect at that time. There are many areas on the ground that offer great picture back drops... just pick your photographer carefully to take full advantage of the property ( ours was so so for a price of a great photographer :( ). Only gripes about the venue: 1)There were too many seats at the ceremony and it made it look like a lot of people didnt show up. We just had a smaller wedding and did not need the standard 100 chairs. The pictures of the ceremony just look kind of weird with all the open seats. 2) not a lot of pre-wedding planning communication or assistance from the venue. I felt like I was bugging when I asked questions. 3) A guest saw the bar staff recycle garnishments Very small gripes, I would definitley use the site for a wedding.
