Incredible Wedding Venue!

"The Meritage Resort and Spa was a wonderful venue for our destination wedding. The fact that Meritage Resort is located in Napa Valley, in the heart of wine country, makes it an ideal setting for a romantic wedding. Meritage blends a style of classic charm with a modern appeal. The Resort offers a plethora of amenities, including luxurious guest rooms, two pools, an onsite restaurant, a bowling alley/lounge, and most uniquely, the estate cave and spa. We absolutely loved getting married on the vineyard deck, which is a hill on top of the estate cave overlooking a spectacular view of wine county. We had our dinner and reception in the estate cave, which provided a truly unique and unforgettable experience for us and our guests. Every one of our guests were incredibly impressed by the spectacular beauty of the venue and the quality of the services provided by the Meritage staff. All of the Resort staff were very friendly, helpful, and accommodating. In particular, Event Services Manager, Desiree Thronton, did a superb job! She was kind and very attentive to the needs of my Wife and myself. She thoroughly responded to all our questions and worked hard to address every issue that we had to ensure our wedding day was a success. She particularly did a very good job of attending to our guest's needs and took great effort to make sure they were well accommodated. Desiree's professionalism and hard work helped make our wedding experience wonderful. We would absolutely recommend Meritage Resort and Spa to anyone planning to be married in California

A perfect weekend at the perfect venue!

The Meritage Resort and Spa was our dream venue from the moment we visited! We fell in love with the gorgeous property set in beautiful Napa. Throughout the entire event, all of our guests felt the warmth and hospitality of the staff. As the couple, we were especially grateful for last minute accommodations to the our backup indoor venue. We can't wait to visit for our anniversary!! We will cherish this weekend with Meritage forever. Huge thanks to Rose Meyers and her team for pulling it all together.

A perfect location for the big day

We got married here on March 30, 2024. The Meritage Resort and Spa was a perfect venue for my wedding, as most of our guests were international guests flying in. The resort was the ideal place to leave a great first impression of Napa Valley for my guests! The Meritage Team was extremely cooperative, accommodating, and professional when it came to all matters. We thank Rose Meyers for being such a professional and wonderful manager for our big day. We had a few changes at the last minute due to the weather, but everyone handled it so well, and it was seamless and perfect on the day! The guests loved the venue, food, and accommodation. I highly recommend Meritage for anyone looking to have a top-notch wedding!

I love officiating weddings at this venue! I especially like the vineyard and vast Napa Valley view available to brides/couples for their Wedding Ceremony on the hill. The wedding facilitators here at Meritage Resort & Spa are consistent in their pursuit of achieving the Wedding Day goals they establish with and for their clients. In short, they are reliable and completely committed to the highest level of customer satisfaction. You won't be disappointed! Be sure to mention that "RevDrJoe".com referred you!
