The staff at Murrieta's Well made our wedding a dream come true! They were very flexibile with the reception start time since we had our ceremony at a nearby church. The food and venue were amazing! They did a great job setting up the reception and the transition from Tricia at the sales office to Dana, our day of coordinator, was seemless! We couldnt have asked for a more beuatiful reception. Our guests have been raving about the food and the venue for weeks now!

We just had our wedding here on May 22! It is the most beautiful location ever! All our guests were raving and still are about how gorgeous the setting was!
We loved the old stone and wood in the barrel room and how it felt so rustic and was so private and remote. The Sales Manager I worked with up until the wedding was Tricia Craig, she was AMAZING! So responsive and always eager to answer my questions and help me out! I seriously don't know what I would have done without her!

The day of coordinator is different which I was kind of worried about.
But when I met Jessica Hahn at the Rehearsal, I knew we were in good hands. She was very nice but also assertive which I needed with our 12 people wedding party!
I did a lot of the decor myself so I gave her boxes and boxes of stuff to put around and she did an amazing job picking areas that I would have never thought of. Everything just came out beautifully!

The food and cake was also amazing! This is all feedback from my guests since the bride doesn't get to eat much.

I have not one single complaint about this venue! I would recommend it to anyone and everyone wanting a romantic, private, quaint place to get married at.

Our wedding day was nearly perfect thanks to the staff at Murrieta's Well. Nina made sure that everything went smoothly, even though I was panicking because it was raining. She was able to switch our indoor ceremony to outdoor as soon as we told her to move the chairs. The food was delicious and the wait staff was amazing.

We worked with Heather in the sales office and then Candi once Heather went on maternity leave. Candi was amazing and helped us plan our day perfectly.

This winery is amazing! I just had my wedding here and I can not say enough about Murrieta's Well! From the detailed planning with Heather to the day-of coordination with Ashley, this place is top notch! The food was delicious and the cake was raved about by everyone! Of course you can't beat the venue itself, it is gorgeous! Our entire day was just perfect, if we could do it all again next weekend I wouldn't hesitate to pick Murrieta's Well! Everyone had a blast and could not stop gushing about everything!

Murrieta's Well is a wonderful venue for that unique rustic barn-like feel. It offers a beautiful and intimate setting with a barrel room and outdoor dance floor. I couldn't imagine a more perfect setting for our special day!

The staff at Murrieta's Well was wonderful - We had many little requests on how each detail should play out on our day of, and each on was executed very well on the day of! Although we didn't get our original coordinator on the day of our wedding, Lisa (I believe was her name) was wonderful, she keep everything running smoothly and I felt at no moment like I had any reason to take the reins from her.

All in all, the food service and ambiance was wonderful!

This winery was perfect. It is off the road and the wine tasting is closed at the time of the wedding. They answered all my questions and made sure that I was a happy bride. When Something went wrong that I noticed they took care of it. The Food was outstanding I still have people talking about the potatoes. The Cake wasn't just pretty but tasted good also.

The event services for Murrieta's Well are handled by Wente. Wente gives you a tour of both the Well and the Wente - they have very different feels. After you book, they give you a questionnaire asking you everything from how many votives per table to what kind of microphone you need. Wente events include food, wine, linens, and cake. We were very excited about the talented and creative pastry chefs who made our cake. We chose several of our other (fantastic) vendors from the referral list. Wente provided flexiblity and customization throughout the planning stages, including putting aside a wine that we wanted to serve and sourcing a kosher dinner for one guest. Wente provides a wedding coordinator on the day of the wedding. Our only two complaints were that the wooden high chair for my niece was rickety and had an exposed nail and that they brought the stand up microphone instead of the lapel mike.

Murrieta's Well is a beautifully intimate and special location for an event or wedding. We just were married there May 31, 2008. Owned by Wente, the staff and catering is all done by Wente which boasts a five star restuarant. Everyone RAVED about the food and service and the venue itself was absolutely beautiful. We had the whole winery to ourselves which made for a personal event.

Working with Heather Druba in the sales office was divine, she is very laid back and responsive and made planning my wedding a snap.

My only complaint is with our on-site coordinator we had that day. She was very hurried and unorganized and gave me, my parents and my husband the feeling she wanted us to "hurry up and get out." My day of coordinator gave her detailed information on set up and contact information for vendors and yet, 30 minutes before the end of my reception she was asking ME where my shuttle bus was! As if I had the drivers number tucked into my dress. Nevertheless, our wedding went off without a hitch due to my other vendors and the lovely, lovely location.

We had just the ceremony here. The venue is beautiful but there is no bridal room. They just have a public bathroom that you change in. They tell you to bring a sheet to stand on. All through the change my family was walking in to use the bathroom and saw me before they were suppose to. That was the biggest up set to this venue. But they do provide you with a Planner to help your day go smoothly, even though a few people said she was rude. Over all I think if you're on a budget this is a good place but if you have extra to spend go somewhere else.
