Marechal Vineyards was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding! Their communication was easy, fast, and always accessible, which made planning our big day a breeze. The quality of their work and the overall value was truly incredible - the venue was absolutely beautiful, luxurious, and chic. They went above and beyond to ensure our special day was perfect, even providing me with a private bridal suite and helping my wedding planner Rochelle, when the DJ forgot his generator. Marechal Vineyards was wonderful throughout the entire experience and helped us create the most beautiful wedding day possible. We are so grateful for their incredible service and highly recommend them to any couple planning their wedding!

I got married here recently and it was beautiful! It is very convenient having rooms on site to accomodate so many guests. You have to cater through the venue but their food is amazing. They use their own grass fed meats and were great about what food and drinks we wanted. While the venue does come with a few things like tables and chairs, you do have to pay to rent other items from them and a lot of the decoration will be DIY, but this can be a good thing if you want to personalize a lot of things! Owners are not too strict about things and are flexible. This can go both ways though - sometimes the planning was a bit difficult due to lack of communication with the venue. It would take a while to get answers, or they would forget some things I told them. Definitely recommend getting a day of planner to help since this is a large venue with lots of DIY and family around usually. Other than that though, everything turned out beautiful and guests were very happy with the views and rooms. They are reasonably priced and we were able to stay up late too! Perfect day :)
