“Benjamin Wilson was his neighbor, who was also a winemaker and owned “Lake Vineyard” (this is the origin of Lake Ave; he founded the city of Alhambra).”

From the reviews
Nice venue. Fenced in for privacy. Restrooms are nearby. Large lawn area and a shady arbor. Parking can be a challenge and a parking fee is required if there are other community events being held at the same time
This is a beautiful space with plenty of amenities and is well maintained. We had our wedding here about a year ago and the staff that night was accommodating and professional. If you are looking for a scenic and historic place to host a party of any kind, you might want to consider this place.
Love this venue. My wife and I were married here and it’s not only a beautiful location for any event (especially a wedding) but it’s very affordable. I would highly recommend checking this site out. Staff are friendly and helpful, and it’s just a great asset for the city.
This is a very nice venue spot by the San Gabriel Mission. The spot is large for a big gathering. There is a tented area but I am not sure if the tent is always there or if it was rented when I went. The only downside is the parking.
Getting married at Grapevine Arbor
Grapevine Arbor comes up for weddings — confirmed on their own site. Two things make the tour worth it. First, see the garden at the time of day and season you'd actually get married — a garden that glows at golden hour in June can look very different at noon in March, so ask what's in bloom for your date and walk the path your guests take from parking to ceremony to reception. Second, bring your real questions: the rain plan (where does the ceremony move, and does it hold everyone?), shade and bugs for a summer afternoon, the catering and bar policy, the music curfew, and exactly what's included — tables, chairs, setup, and teardown are where quotes quietly diverge. Popular garden dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
