Vellano Estate Weddings in Chino Hills

Vellano Estate sits on a hilltop inside a gated community in Chino Hills, a Tuscan style clubhouse run by Wedgewood Weddings with a grand staircase, a back lawn framed by cypress trees, an iron rotunda and views across the Chino Valley. It is the venue we have photographed and filmed more than any other, and the weddings on our blog are collected below so you can see the estate across different seasons, palettes and styles.

Planning a Vellano Estate Wedding

Ceremony and Reception Spaces

Most ceremonies take place on the back lawn, framed by cypress trees and white rosebushes, with an indoor ceremony option available. Cocktail hour moves to the foyer and terrace, and receptions are held upstairs in the second floor ballroom. Catering is in-house through Wedgewood Weddings.

Getting Ready at Vellano Estate

Both sides can get ready on site. The groom suite is a few steps from the oak trees outside, and the bridal side is upstairs, close to the balcony and the grand staircase, so there is no extra travel before the first look.

Our Favorite Photo Spots

The grand staircase is our signature first look spot, and the upstairs balcony looks out over the Chino Hills. Outside, we take couples to the iron rotunda on the lawn, the path lined with tall cypress trees and the grand front entrance during cocktail hour.

Timing Tips

Do the first look on the staircase. The balcony is steps away, so 20 minutes covers both.

Plan around golden hour. In early March, sunset in Chino Hills lands around 5:50 PM, so a 4 PM ceremony puts golden hour in the middle of cocktail hour.

Leave time for the stairs. The ballroom is on the second floor, so build in a few minutes for guests to move up after cocktail hour.
