Encanterra Country Club Reviews

We truly cannot say enough great things about our experience with Encanterra for our wedding. Tina truly made the magic happen for us. Everything went PERFECTLY which feels impossible when it comes to a wedding! How she manages to juggle all of the weddings and events and still be everywhere all at once blows my mind. She is a miracle worker! She is so responsive, kind, accommodating, and brings such a warmth to the wedding. At times she was even seen jumping behind the bar and serving food to help out! The whole staff did so great. As soon as it ended, they were on top of the cleanup, they were so efficient with the food and set up tables perfectly. We didn't have to lift a finger day of, and we are so beyond grateful. If you are looking for a venue, look no further than Encanterra... seriously!!!

We absolutely loved having our wedding at Encanterra Country Club. It was a beautiful venue with many different options to choose from. They helped make our wedding the dream it was. From choosing where our reception and ceremony would be, to the food options, everything was amazing. They set up everything exactly how I pictured and they made sure to make us feel comfortable with all the details before and on the big day. They did all the work and all the cleanup, we can’t thank them enough. Highly recommend this venue. We will be back just to eat at the restaurant! 10/10

I had my wedding at Encanterra Country Club in April 2024. The moment you drive into the property, it takes your breath away. The golf course is always in pristine condition, and the country club showcases views of the mountains and beautiful architecture. If you are looking for a venue that speaks for itself, this is it. On top of that, Tina, the venue coordinator, was absolutely amazing to work with. I am a type-A bride and had a very specific vision for the day. Tina exceeded all of my expectations and worked seamlessly with my vendors. She was always very responsive to my emails (and I had lots of them!!). She is very flexible and made our day absolutely perfect. Thank you Encanterra!!!

Truly a beautiful venue and we had a stress free, seamless wedding. Ashley was AMAZING! She is so sweet and made sure all the details were exactly what I asked for, was very responsive, ensured the wedding party and guests were where they needed to be per our timeline, coordinated with all the vendors, and made sure her staff had everything setup exactly the way that I had asked. There was not a single thing that went wrong on our wedding day. Every detail was in place, every person knew where there were supposed to be when it was time, and I could not have asked for a better coordinator than Ashley. Thank you to Ashley for our dream wedding coming true!

I just want to thank Encanterra for all they did to make the ceremony and reception so special. Those events could not have been any better and my guests are still talking about the amazing evening.

Everyone has been raving about the food and the servers. The numerous comments I received are basically that they have never been to a wedding of this size where the food came out hot, cooked to perfection and so good. Please relay that from myself and our guests and thank them for making the meal so special.

Other comments I received were the Encanterra staff was so attentive and "the lady in charge" never stopped hustling to make sure everything was so special. They were obviously talking about Ashley. She was so attentive to every detail, so friendly, professional and an absolute joy to work with.

The venue and the service were great. Ashley was awesome from first meeting through a long wedding day and night. We had a great time. Thank you!

We had the BEST experience at Encanterra Country Club for our wedding. I couldn’t imagine having my wedding anywhere else. We had the most beautiful set up, both are he ceremony space AND reception. Our pictures came out absolutely stunning!! So many of our guests complimented our wedding. Not only was Encanterra a beautiful venue, Ashley and all of her staff was the best part! Ashley was amazing during our whole planning process and on the day of, her and her team went above and beyond to make sure our day ran smoothly and everything was perfect!!!

The Encanterra Country Club is a beautiful venue for any type of event, and it was so insanely gorgeous for my wedding. But it was Ashley who made the event run so smoothly. I cannot begin to express what a pro she is! Ashley was so helpful and accommodating in taking me around the venue prior to the wedding to make sure I could plan all my effects. She handled all my special requests leading up to the event and she kept things calm and on-course all throughout the day of the wedding. Additionally, her attention to detail was beyond spectacular! All my guests were blown away, and everybody had a great time! The pictures were beautiful, largely due to the incredible backdrop the venue provides. The whole day was a complete joy!
I loved working with Ashley and the team at the Encanterra CC, and I will seek opportunities to recommend her and this venue to anyone looking for an exceptional locale for their important, cherished event!

This was the best decision we made having our beautiful wedding here at Encaterra. Ashley spent time with us ensuring us our vision and it was everything I hoped for. Highly recommend having your wedding at Encanterra and having Ashley and her staff make your dreams come through.

I don’t do parties because I can’t deal with the stress that comes with them, so when my husband and I decided to renew our vows for our 20th wedding anniversary, I was anxious. We picked the perfect venue for our intimate celebration of 30 people. The setup was beautiful, the staff was awesome, the service was great and the food delicious. The entire event coordination was handled by Ashley and Tess who made sure everything was perfect and made my anxiety vanish. These two ladies went above and beyond to make sure my day was special and memorable, Thank you! I do parties now 😉

Great location with an amazing staff. Ashley was very knowledgable and helped us manage the meals the vendors the setup and tear down, etc. She was so sweet and really went out of her way to ensure we had a very special day. I've already recommended this place since getting married and I'll do it a thousand more times. You won't regret getting married here, if you got the dough you gotta go!

April 9th 2022 was the best day of my life. Encanterra and ASHLEY truly exceeded any of my dreams and made them a reality. Ashley made sure the day went smooth and stress free for me as possible. Everything flowed so perfectly. THe staff was all great. Set-up was perfect! I would highly recommend this venue to anyone. the pictures are beautiful. The food is delicious. The best memories that will last a lifetime here!

I loved every step and moment spent with Ashley planning my wedding. My wedding was beyond my dreams! Encanterra really exceeded my expectations.

The start of our journey at Encanterra had been nothing but good and expceptional. At the beginning, we were with Duke where we suddenly found ourselves with so many questions. When Ashley stepped in, it was as if I was listening to an angel! She helped ease us into the biggest day of our lives. If I could give her a 6 star I truly would. Both my husband and I knew we were in amazing hands once the ball got rolling.

The evening was fantastic. Ashley gave us the time we needed and didn't bother to bring any concerns to me on the big day. The only thing I would suggest for the venue is that although the bar closes at 8 PM, we found some guests paying while lets just say over the wall. As a bride and groom, you don't realize how things can go from 0 to 100 so fast. I would suggest the bartender to stop giving drinks when they see a customer has exceeded their limit. Overall, the night was one for the books. Guests laughed, made memories, and even cleaned their plates CLEAN. We give the kitchen a 5 star. Ashley even came up to me to remind me to EAT. She is really something else and if it were up to me I would give that woman the biggest raise of her life. So much love and so much gratitude in finding this venue. Thank you for everything!

Duke & Madison did an amazing job helping us through all the trials that came along with planning. When it came to actual wedding day we unfortunately had to deal with wind and rain but that didn’t stop them from making sure everything ran smoothly and that we were taken care. Thank you for my wedding day amazing and being so helpful.

Duke was phenomenal! We loved the venue and all the staff were super tentative day of. I would recommend this venue to everyone!

Wow is all I have to say! Duke was absolutely the best wedding coordinator! The event was flawless and beyond our expectations. Don’t hesitate booking at Encanterra!

Duke helped make our wedding everything we could have dreamed of. He catered to our every need and worked closely with us to make everything perfect. We couldn’t imagine having a wedding without him. Encanterra is a beautiful beautiful place, all of our guests would tell you the same. Everyone is so professional and accommodating. Would highly recommend this venue !!!

I am absolutely blown away at how amazing Encanterra is and how perfect it was to celebrate our day. Everything was flawless. Our first wedding, postponed by COVID, was at a big well known resort in Phoenix and was cancelled 17 days prior to our day - so we had done ALL of our planning with them. After cancelling, we found Encanterra and there is absolutely no comparison to the service we received. Encanterra blew them out of the water and I am so happy we made the switch to them. Duke, our wedding coordinator, was attentive, easy to communicate with, extremely helpful and worked so hard to make sure our day was perfect. He is fantastic! Ashley, the chef did an outstanding job with all of our meal choices including our rehearsal dinner. She is amazing! I am so happy to have had our special day here and I would recommend them to anyone searching for a venue. Thank you!

Kathy and I had the distinct pleasure of getting married at Encanterra. Duke and his team were a wealth of information and assistance from beginning to end.

Our wedding day was absolutely magical!
Duke was amazing and the reason everything turned out so amazing!

We celebrated our wedding on November 7th 2020! After almost two years of planning, Duke and his staff at Encanterra made our wedding day come to life in every way. We had a vision for how we wanted to use the beautiful space and it was executed even better than I had imagined it.

From start to finish, the team at Encanterra Country Club was incredible. We loved every moment of planning with them.

I wrote a pretty lengthy review, but that's because the longest reviews were the most helpful to me in planning my wedding! I'll put a tl;dr up here for anyone who wants a shorter review:
-Encanterra is an incredible value for the price.
-Food was outstanding
-A gorgeous venue - many of our guests complimented the location!
-Perfect for an outdoor wedding during the cooler parts of the year
-Duke and his team are real pros

We signed with Encanterra for a late October wedding just before COVID really hit the US. We weren't sure how COVID would impact the planning process or even the day-of execution of our event, but Duke and the team at Encanterra could not have been more accommodating.

When we did our tasting in the middle of the summer, we came to Duke armed with a lot of questions. Top of mind for us was having the event safely. We knew we would be providing masks for our guests, but there were other things we wanted to do, like have as much of the event outside as we possibly could. No matter what we asked, Duke was more than accommodating.

Because of the size of our wedding, we were able to have the ENTIRE thing outdoors - ceremony on their gorgeous ceremony lawn, cocktail hour on the lovely patio adjacent to the ceremony lawn, and dinner and dancing on the lawns adjacent to the patio. The whole event flowed really well from one space to the next, so much so that we would do the same exact thing even if COVID hadn't factored into our plans.

Our wedding was small (~50 people), and we took extra precautions to ensure we could have adequate distancing during dinner in particular. As such, we had 11 tables that would typically seat 8 people placed on the lawn, with plenty of room to spare in between. During non-pandemic times, the lawn could certainly accommodate a larger wedding than ours.

The dinner area is incredibly well-lit thanks to the bistro lights strung up above, and the dance floor was neither too light nor too dark - it felt inviting and intimate, just like we wanted. Our centerpieces included floating candles to add extra ambiance, which I highly recommend if you look to host your event outdoors as well. Encanterra was also able to provide votives on each table for an added touch that really took everything over the top.

We looked at a lot of venues online, but nothing could match the remarkable beauty and value we got with Encanterra. Their pricing on food & beverage is incredibly reasonable (especially considering the quality - this is some of the best food I've ever had at a wedding), and they have plenty of food options to satisfy every guest. I would recommend going with a plated meal if you select Encanterra. The portions are more than generous - no guest will go hungry! - and plated meals are more affordable than buffet pricing. There are all kinds of extras you can add - s'mores are available to take advantage of the fire pit near the ceremony space, for example. It's nice that they do all their catering in-house, and the whole catering team really seems to know what they're doing. We had glowing reviews of the food from our day.

One of the reasons we chose Encanterra was because of the beauty of the venue. While it's not as centrally-located as other venues, you cannot beat the value for the price, even considering the drive. Situated in a private country club, you and your guests will check in at the front gates. Once inside the gates, you will drive for about another mile on a road winding through the most beautiful parts of the golf course. Finally, you'll arrive at the Mallorca Events Center. One of our guests commented that it was like entering Narnia. This was exactly what we wanted - to feel like the rest of the world was melting away and that you were entering a really special place. Encanterra did that for us. It felt special, private, and secluded.

I love that Encanterra has partnerships with Southwick Linens and Piece of Cake. You get basic linens included with your package and can then upgrade to your heart's content. Laurie over at Southwick is a DREAM - she gave us so many ideas for our wedding. Laurie also knows Encanterra intimately, so she was able to knowledgeably consult with us on what we wanted. She has everything you could possibly need to go all-out with your linens, place settings, and chairs. We opted for some simple upgrades in the right places, but that's because our theme was fairly simple in the first place.

Also, the CAKE! We received so many compliments on our cake. The partnership between Piece of Cake and Encanterra means that the cake is INCLUDED in your overall package - we loved that! We just had to schedule a tasting and make our selections. The folks at Piece of Cake dressed our cake with the flowers we provided and it looked just stunning. I'm sure we could have opted for some upgrades to our cake if we wanted to, but we were more than happy with what came standard.

Duke is a real pro, with many years in the weddings and events industry. He shared early on in our planning process that he felt totally comfortable being our main POC the day of to coordinate the officiant, DJ, photographer, florist, etc. We opted to hire a day-of coordinator anyway, mostly because we were doing a few things off-site (hair and makeup) and needed assistance in assembling our centerpieces on-site. On the day of the wedding, Duke and our coordinator (Miranda of Miranda Madison Events - a pro!) were a seamless team. It appeared as though they had worked together for years. I attribute that to their experience in the industry and overall professionalism.

The only real con I can think of is the location, but that really depends on where you live. For us, Queen Creek was a bit of a drive, and the closest hotels aren't exactly across the street. However, there are ample AirBNB and VRBO options in the surrounding neighborhoods, and there are some hotels just outside of Queen Creek in Gilbert that are close enough to make it work. I wouldn't let that dissuade you from putting Encanterra at the top of your list, however.

All in all, we had an incredible day made even more incredible by the terrific team at Encanterra.

We could not have asked for a more perfect wedding! The venue was beautiful and the event went off without a hitch. When you get married here not only do you get a beautiful venue, you get delicious food and a team of incredible people to make your day the most special. Duke made the entire process so easy, he was so kind, helpful and went above and beyond in every way. Planning a wedding in covid was so stressful but he made so many accommodations to make it happen. We could not imagine a more perfect day! We highly recommend it! To Duke and the Encanterra team, we cannot thank you enough for making our wedding day the most magical, perfect day! Love- Los Calderon

we were SO happy with Encanterra!!!! I can't even put into words how amazing they were! Professional friendly staff, helpful, attentive, absolutely stunning views, very accommodating and affordable! It's a drive but we honestly couldn't have found a better venue! 5 million stars! Highly recommend!!

Like many others, our wedding was postponed due to covid-19. Encanterra stepped up tremendously to help us reschedule without a hitch. Duke, the director of sales went above and beyond his responsibilities at every opportunity possible. Every guest we had noticed and commented on how helpful and outstanding all the staff members were. Chef Sear gives Gordon Ramsay a run for his money. The food was phenomenal! The venue itself is impressive and picturesque. I couldn’t have asked for a better wedding day, all thanks to Duke and the staff at Encanterra!

Beautiful venue, beautiful community, wonderful staff. Casey was a dream to work with. I literally could not have asked for more. I am more than thrilled with my experience!

I mean where do i even begin? Casey was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! She made the planning super easy! She paid attention to every single detail that we brought up to her! I don't think the wedding would have gone as smoothly as it did without her there! After the wedding was over my husband and I talked about how not stressful planning was and I contribute most of that fact to Casey and Encanterra for handling basically every detail of the day!

The venue is BREATHTAKING and is reflected in all of our wedding photos. Everyone says all you will take away from your wedding day is the photos and with Encanterra as our background it makes our pictures even better! Every single guest complimented the views and the food! Really that's what your guests are going to remember as well, Food, views, and of course Booze! The bartenders were very professional and made sure that none of the guest went way overboard on the alcohol.
All in all, Encanterra is the best place for a wedding! Casey is the BEST!!!!!!

Just had my wedding at Encanterra December 7th and I my family loved everything about the venue. From the moment you enter the gate and County Club it’s just beautiful! Casey and her staff at Encanterra made it such an amazing experience and helped take the stress off our shoulders. They really work with you. Thank you for making our day amazing!

I don't even know where to begin with Encanterra Country Club and Kim Dunn the special event coordinator. The venue is absolutely stunning and everything I envisioned for our wedding from the mountains in the background, to the colorful flowers all around the ceremony site, to the open ballroom, the bistro lights on the cocktail lawn. Everything was truly a dream come true. I couldn't have imagined out special day without the help from Kim. She was always very responsive with emails and was always able to accommodate for all my wishes. On our wedding day she was always checking up on Jonathan and I which made us feel at ease they entire evening. Thank you Encanterra Country Club and Kim Dunn for truly being and amazing venue and putting your brides and grooms first.
Thank you,
Mr. and Mrs. Smith

We chose Encanterra not only for the gorgeous outdoor and indoor space, but for the flexibility they give their couples to do what they want! Kimberly was amazing and so easy to work with and was awesome at communication, as well as keeping us in the loop through the entire process! Kimberly and the whole Encanterra staff made everything run so smoothly on our big day and I would highly recommend this venue to anyone looking!

My husband and I recently got married at Encanterra Country Club on November 9th, 2018. The venue is absolutely gorgeous! It is a bit of a drive if you do not live near Gilbert, but when we went to view the ceremony/reception space, we were sold after driving through the gates. The venue coordinator, Kimberly, was fantastic as well! She was very quick to respond and answer any questions that I had. She was at the venue during our rehearsal and on the wedding day to make sure everything ran smoothly. All in all, it was a great day and we could not be happier with Encanterra.

Not only is Encanterra a beautiful place to say “I do!”, but their wedding coordinator, Kimberly, is just as great! The planning process went so smoothly and Kimberly answered every question I had right away throughout the entire process! They were so accommodating and just made the whole day come together beautifully! My wedding day could not have been more perfect!

My daughters wedding at Encantera Country Club was absolutely stunning! Kimberly was the best! She worked so well with all of us and made sure everything was perfect! She was so prompt, professional and accommodating. The venue is beautiful with a gorgeous setting and a very warm feel. There were countless comments from our guests on how beautiful the wedding was. It was a magical night that we will never forget. Thank you so much Kimberly for making Ashley's wedding dream come true!

Our wedding of 30 guests was small in comparison to the size of events Encanterra often hosts, but Kimberly made us feel as if our celebration was as important as any other. Her professionalism, responsiveness, and attention to details are unmatched. Her assistant, "T", took care of all of our needs the day of the wedding with Kimberly checking in from a second ceremony at a different part of the venue. T was incredibly sweet, helpful, and responsive. Our guests raved about how beautiful the venue was. We were pleased with everything and grateful to them for their help in achieving our vision.

We loved working with Kimberly and the team. She was super friendly and always replied quickly to my e-mails. The day of our wedding was flawless. It is a day I will always remember!

Encanterra was absolutely the perfect choice for our wedding which took place in late January, 2017. From the moment I toured the property I was in love with the setting. It is simply breathtaking. We were looking for a venue that was somewhat unique, not your standard ballroom with no windows, etc. I do a lot of events for my occupation in ballrooms and while there is nothing wrong with them, I'm just kind of tired of them because they make me feel like I'm at work! We also knew we wanted to have a smaller, more intimate wedding and we were looking for a space that was just the right size for us. I loved that Encanterra offered so many unique and beautiful options for both the ceremony and reception. We loved the Tuscan, luxe atmosphere Encanterra offered as that is more of our style vs. a more contemporary setting. The entire process working with Kimberly Dunn (formerly Kimberly Tarrango) was so smooth and easy. She is incredibly responsive, honest, and helpful. Getting such great customer service from her from the very beginning was another reason we chose Encanterra. I knew we'd be in great hands! We planned our wedding relatively quickly so we opted to skip the tasting options since I had heard great things about the food. It was all true! The food served was so amazing (we offered a salmon and a steak option and I would highly recommend both). We received compliments from several of our guests on the food, including the hors d' oeuvres (which I am bummed my hubby and I missed out on since we were taking photos. The thoughtful staff even brought some out for us during our photographs but we didn't want to risk getting anything on our clothes before our photos were over!). Kimberly and the staff were so flexible with us regarding some changes we wanted to make. IMO, the price point for such a beautiful venue is very reasonable. I looked at a lot of venues so I feel like I have a good idea for what venues typically cost. Overall, a wonderful choice for us!!

Encanterra was the perfect site for our son's wedding! This venue has stunning views of the Superstition Mountains all while overlooking a lake! They had a gorgeous waterfall that the couple could take photos on and so many locations to get stunning shots! The food was spectacular, we even did a mac and cheese late night snack station that our guests are still talking about. Kimberly Tarango was so wonderful to work with she was so responsive to all our questions and was there on the wedding day to make sure everything went perfectly. We loved all the wait staff and they even provided a day of shadow to make sure the bride and groom had everything they needed while they were getting ready. I could not have imagined a more perfect day for our son and now daughter in law!

Kimberly and all the staff at Encanterra went above & beyond to make our day relaxing, perfect, easy all we wanted it to be. I can not express how wonderful they were to work with.

We had so many choice for our wedding venue and what sold us on Encanterra was the incredible view of the mountains! There is a lake that is in the front and the incredible mountains in the back. Kimberly the catering manager was amazing to work with. She has such a passion for her brides and their families. She was always responsive to our every need. The food was incredible and we even did a late night mac and cheese station! On the day of the wedding we had a staff person that stayed with the bridal party to take care of every detail and the brought us anything we needed. There was not one thing I would have changed or did differently on the day of the wedding!

At the end of the day, if the vendor can accommodate the size of the wedding being planned by the Bride & Groom, the key to a successful celebration is the trust you place in the vendor's personnel to assist in the organization of the event and the confidence in their ability to execute on its commitment to you. In the case of Encanterra, we concluded after meeting with Ms. Kimberly Tarango that we were in excellent hands and we never once concerned ourselves after that day that our wedding would be anything less than the what we had pictured in our minds.

Kimberly was amazing! She always answered emails quickly and was very flexible. Encanterra was perfect!

Beautiful location for a wedding ceremony! Everyone that helped us on our special day went above and beyond with service. We couldn't of picked a better place to have our wedding. Also, it was great working with Kimberly from Encanterra.

If you have any doubt, don't. You will never have better service anywhere else but at Rncanterra. Kimberly Tarango is the most professional event planner I have met. She made us feel confident that our special day would be perfect. Her knowledge and resources are endless. All of our guests complimented on the service and beauty of our wedding.

I can't begin to describe how great our wedding experience was. There was probably about 100 email correspondences between me and kimberly over the past year yet she was always so patient and kind to me. Our wedding a week ago was just perfect. Every time we threw Kimberly a curveball, she always responded with a positive attitude. She really knows how to put a bride at ease.

As far as pricing, the overall cost is on par with most venues in the Phoenix area, but you get such wonderful service and a beautiful backdrop with gorgeous mountains. Because we booked our wedding a year in advance, Encanterra's prices changed but Kimberly honored the prices when we booked. I never felt nickled or dimed by the venue, and really felt the service and experience was worth every penny paid.

As for food, I think all 165 or so guests only had positive things to say about it. My aunt said it was the best steak she has ever had!! The chef really took our feedback from the tasting (less rare and less salty) and actually implemented it that way on the day of. I wish I was able to eat more of the food that day! The scallops and salmon were also raved about. Really could not have asked for a better coordinator and venue.

Encanterra was a beautiful venue for our wedding, The food was delicious and exactly what we asked for. Kimberly and her team did an excellent job in ensuring everything was taken care just how we wanted it. Our wedding package included our cake which was done by "A Piece of Cake". It was delicious. We were also in need of a DJ for the wedding, Kimberly gave us a couple of recommendations one of which was SKM Entertainment. They did an amazing job. When looking for a wedding venue I have to say that Kimberly and here team made our choice easy. Thank you Encanterra for making our wedding day so special.

Everything was perfect!! Kimberly made all of our wishes come true... Best day ever!

We've been to Encanterra many times before our wedding; having our wedding at Encanterra was an easy decision, after meeting with Kimberly Tarango we felt confident that everything would go as schedule, Kimberly was great thought out the planning all the way to the last detail. Our wedding day was perfect! our guest have nothing but great things to say about how beautiful the venue is, the food was so good,the professionalism of the staff...my wife and I have great memories, we are extremely happy with our decision of having our wedding at Encanterra

My wedding was held at Encanterra Country Club and it was absolutely wonderful. This venue is beautiful on the inside and outside. Kimberly was wonderful to work with- along with everyone else! They did everything I wanted and requested. They were very professional and flexible. My guests still talk about how beautiful my wedding was- thank you for making the day so special!

Encanterra was a no brainer for us when picking a venue for our wedding! We had looked at a few different venues but none compared at all. Encanterra has beautiful grounds for the ceremony with the golf course and mountains in the background and a great reception room to fit as many people as you need. The food is top notch and Kimberly is so responsive and always willing to help with all questions that a bride-to-be could have. At a fraction of the cost of other venues you actually get more than what you bargain for. Encanterra is a gem here in San Tan Valley that many overlook but should definitely check out! They even have free shuttle services from a few hotels to get guests to and from the venue. I couldn't be happier that we chose Encanterra and cannot wait to say "I Do" here. I would recommend to anyone looking for quality and beauty. Its a fairytale venue come to life.

Working with Encanterra was great, they provided us with exactly what we wanted.

Kimberly Tarango was excellent. I thought they were so professional at Encanterra. The day was perfect.

I just had my wedding at Encanterra, and if I could give a higher rating than 5 stars, I would! Let me start with the location itself! Encanterra is simply breathtaking! From the ceremony site overlooking the golf course and the mountains to the ballroom set up just perfectly! I saved a ton of money by only having to minimally decorate the venue, because it's just naturally gorgeous. Aside from the insanely perfect location, the staff is incredible! Just two months before my actual wedding date, the wedding coordinator quit. I had very little notice and was terrified that all of my planning and detail work would be lost. I was assured that they were working on finding a new event coordinator and all would be fine. Just a week or so later, I received an email from Kimberly Tarango letting me know that she had been hired and would love to meet. Mind you, I live in Hawaii and was planning this wedding from across the ocean, so we ended up having a phone meeting and from the first minute, I was put at ease! From then on, everything went so smoothly and I'm honestly so grateful for the staff change! Things couldn't have worked out better if we planned them this way!

I'm not sure how to properly express my love for Encanterra, and especially Kimberly, without sounding creepy ;) Haha! Every. Single. Moment of my big day was perfect and I owe it all to them!

To any brides that are worried that Encanterra is too "far away," don't be! Most of the hotels have shuttles that take guests to and from the venue and you honestly can't find this type of beauty anywhere else! It's perfect and so was my big day! <3

Can't wait to get married here in January 2015!! The site is absolutely gorgeous and the staff has been more than helpful!!

We fell in love with Encanterra the first time we visited and everyone did a fantastic job of working with us to create a perfect wedding day! Emily Baird and all the staff members we encountered were fabulous and would recommend them to anyone!

I had the pleasure of working with Emily Baird as my wedding coordinator at Encanterra, and cannot express how grateful I am for her help throughout my wedding planning process and the day-of! You simply cannot get better than Emily. She was so helpful, kind and flexible even though I was a very detail-oriented bride (hard-to-please). My wedding went off without a hitch, and everything started on time. My day was about 95% stress-free, and the 5% stress involved was because of my family--not Encanterra!! lol HIGHLY recommend this venue as well, it was absolutely beautiful.

My husband and I LOVED having our wedding at Encanterra. The most beautiful venue we could ask for and the service/staff was excellent - always responsive, never annoyed with my plethora of questions (very important for brides!). We had an outdoor ceremony and indoor reception; the weather was gorgeous in mid-January (during the wave of 70 degree weather) and the view was exceptional outside - adding too much decor would have taken away from the scenery, which was a welcome relief for this detail-oriented bride to not have to think of "more decor". Encanterra provided "day-of" staff to help the event go smoothly, which I didn't think we'd need because I thought of everything, but trust me, they were fabulous in keeping the wedding party calm and were smiles all around (you can never have too much experienced help on your wedding day!). Everyone was very professional and classy, which was very important for us since this was the biggest party we were going to throw in our lifetime. If we had to do our wedding all over again, we would host it at Encanterra in a heartbeat. We HEART Encanterra!!! :-) :-) :-)

I can't say enough good things about working with Encanterra! From my very first meeting there to the moment we drove away in the limo, we had a wonderful experience. The people who work there are the most professional and knowledgable. They will do absolutely everything in their power to ensure your big day is everything you dreamed of.

Our wedding was schedule to be outside -- the days leading up to the wedding included non-stop pouring rain. Encanterra was on the phone with us several times each day, discussing ways in which we could salvage on outdoor wedding/move inside but still have everything the way we hoped for. The day of the wedding came and everything went beautifully. As the bride, I never had to worry about a thing. The entire staff (not just our primary contacts) were so helpful and thoughtful.

The set up that Encanterra provides is beautiful. The grounds are stunning and make an impression the moment you drive through the gates. The ballroom was transformed from wedding chapel to reception in a way that blew my mind. The food served was delicious! All of our needs were attended to, plus some!

We even had our rehearsal dinner at Encanterr's La Cocina. This couldn't have been more perfect! All of our guests enjoyed every moment.

Big thank you to Sara & Emily for all of the work they put into making our wedding so special!

Encanterra was the first venue we checked out and instantly fell in love. I wanted a venue with water and my husband wanted greenery. Encanterra was the perfect spot. We visited other venues, but nothing compared!

Emily and her team were absolutely amazing to work with from day one! She was very kind organized and professional. We received numerous compliments from our guests on how great the staff was and how well they were being taken care of. The food at our wedding was delicious!! The chef was also so kind to make us a cake to cut into since our wedding cake vendor failed to deliver our wedding cake.

Thank you Encanterra for making our wedding everything I hoped it would be!

BEST PLACE TO GET MARRIED! I am not into writing reviews about items or places, but had to do one for them! They are SO awesome. As an event planner and working with a lot of hotels and resorts this is by far the BEST place to work with. I recently got married there and they made our dreams come true. They are VERY flexible and cater to the bride and groom! Gorgeous views and picture places! BEST STAFF!! Emily, is awesome and very responsive which is hard to find at other venues.

Emily Baird and the Encanterra team were absolutely amazing!!!! Our planning went so smoothly and Emily was so quick to respond to the million emails I sent to her throughout the process! We received more compliments on the beauty of the venue and how spectacular the staff was than imaginable. We chose to have our reception outside as well which I highly recommend to view the beauty of the surrounding golf course , mountains and beautiful AZ sunsets. 10 stars! Encanterra is amazing!

Emily was such a pleasure to work with! She always made me feel at ease and was flexible with requests. She promptly replied to emails and helped to make everything go smoothly from behind the scenes. Encanterra provided such a beautiful venue for our wedding and the food and service was stellar. We so appreciated that the chef was able to work with all of the food allergies in our families. Our guests all said that had a wonderful time and loved the setting. It was the perfect place for us, we couldn't have picked better!

Absolutely beautiful. Its a little out of the way, but well worth it. The backdrop of the golf course and the mountains make for great setting. The staff was extremely friendly and professional. Emily, the wedding coordinator for the venue, was amazing to deal with, also very professional and friendly. The food is fantastic. We have received nothing but compliments about how nice the venue looked, how great the food was, and how much fun they had at the wedding.

Emily and the staff at Encanterra were beyond great to work with. Emily made everything so easy for me and I had the upmost confidence that everything would be great for the wedding. Her dedication to the job and her professionalism really stands out. Even when she was out on vacation for her own wedding, she still made time to email me on some small questions I had.

The staff the day of the wedding were extremely friendly and so responsive. We received numerous compliments from our guests on how great the staff was and how well they were being taken care of. The food was delicious. You always worry that you'll have dry meat when working with catering companies for large events, but the meat was so tender it was perfect!

And last, the venue itself is breath taking. So many of our guests couldn't believe that a place as beautiful as Encanterra existed that far in the east valley. One guest mentioned that it was like driving into a separate world. The views were stunning and made for an excellent backdrop for our ceremony.

I would highly recommend Encanterra for anyone getting married. It was beyond perfect!

The staff at Encanterra made our wedding day perfect. Our wedding coordinator, Emily Baird, made sure every detail was addressed before our big day. We had so many questions along the way since we did not hire a wedding planner, but Emily was always happy to answer our questions, recommend vendors, and talk us through the process. We are certain that without her expertise and guidance our day would not have come together as beautifully as it did. Chef David listened to our likes and dislikes and brought our perfect wedding dinner to life. The food was outstanding, and we are still hearing from our guests about how much they enjoyed the dinner. All of the staff who worked our event were respectful and willing to go the extra mile to ensure our wedding day was exactly what we wanted. I would recommend Encanterra to anyone looking for exceptional service and an unforgettable experience at an unbeatable value.

Emily and the staff at Encanterra Country Club could not have been more on top of their game! The outside staff, servers, wedding coordinators were all so professional, friendly, and knew exactly what they were doing. We've had so many compliments on the location, food and service. If you're looking for a location and don't know where to start or what to do, look no further, Encanterra and their staff can handle the details for you!

We LOVED having our wedding at Encanterra and so glad we chose them over any others! It was beautiful, very affordable and Emily made the entire planning so easy. She was awesome from beginning to the end! She responded so quickly to my millions of questions in preparing for our special day and believe me I really did have question after question in planning the wedding ourselves. We felt like we were treated like royalty from sampling dinner choices to the wedding evening and even after the wedding. The grounds of Encanterra are very well maintained and a lot of green lush and unique photo opportunities with the mountains in the distant. Oh and the ballroom doesn't feel like your typical ballroom...you feel like you're still outside with the surrounding windows! If you are looking for an affordable and beautiful place to have your wedding and reception you should look into Encanterra...we are so thankful we did! Thank you Emily and staff for a beautiful night and a memory that will last with us forever!

Encanterra was BEAUTIFUL!! We are so happy we chose Encanterra for our wedding day! From the decor to the food, Encanterra was all we could ask for. The event coordinator, Emily, was so easy to work with and absolutely on top of everything (especially the day-of). We had a few minor issues with other vendors and Emily and her team were great in resolving them as soon as they occurred. Several of our guests continuously commented on the venue and how great of a choice it was because of how beautiful everything is. The food (especially the tasting) is unreal good! The honey bacon grissini sticks are a MUST for cocktail hour.

I really cannot say enough good things about this wedding venue! It was so perfect for us and we feel so blessed to have the beautiful wedding that we did!

My daughter was married at Encanterra and the whole process was absolutely wonderful from the very beginning! First of all the venue is gorgeous and the food for the reception was amazing! Emily Baird is awesome and did a wonderful job guiding us along. On the actual day of the wedding she was a calm and thourough presence (I'm somewhat of a perfectionist) making sure everything was exactly as we wanted it to be!

All the staff involved with the wedding were so pleasant and helpful! They also worked so well with the outside vendors we hired (Floral, Cake, Desserts, Deejay, Photographer, and our Pastor), and decorated everything beautifully and exactly how we wanted it with everything we brought and everything ran perfectly smooth! I can't say enough about the whole process and how hard they work to make sure the big day is amazing!

We received so many compliments on the whole ceremony, reception, food...everything!

I would definitely recommend Encanterra! It's was amazing!

Encanterra is a stunning wedding venue!! A gorgeous back drop for pictures!!! Truly....a hidden gem in AZ!!! We had guests from all over the US travel to our wedding and everyone could not believe how beautiful our wedding venue was. The 2nd most talked about thing regarding our wedding was the food. It is outstanding in every regard!! From cocktail hour to the entrees. Not 1 complaint!!! Emily the wedding coordinator is so sweet, great and accommodating to all your requests and needs. The staff is very professional and helpful with all your needs. There were only 2 very minor details that were not what I had originally asked for.....but overall my day was AMAZING and went off without a hitch. ( none of my guests were even aware of the minor details, not even the groom)....me just being a Bride I guess...and wanting everything perfect.
I would recommend Encanterra to anyone looking for a beautiful wedding venue in the southeast valley of AZ.
I love it and had a great experience there!!!!

We had the most amazing wedding experience at Encanterra. The entire staff was wonderful and amazing. Everything went right and I didnt have one worry as my day went along. It was worth every single penny we spent! If we had to do it all over again, I would still pick Encanterra.

This was beautiful wedding site. Thanks for everything encanterra.

If you have your wedding here you will have a dream wedding! Our wedding was perfect & I can't think of one negative thing about Encanterra. The scenery is spectacular. The view of alter facing the golf course lake and superstition mountains is picturesque.The club house itself is beautiful with spanish decor & fountains on the patio. Beautiful place if your having a wedding indoor or outdoor. The food is superb and everyone came up to us during the wedding or later said that they had never been to a more beautiful wedding. The staff was extremely helpful & reliable & our day was at ease because they really did all the work for us.

I absolutely love Encanterra! From the very beginning when I inquired about possibly using Encanterra for my wedding everyone was so wonderful and accomidating. Encanterra is a beautiful place and was the perfect venue! The day of the wedding all of the staff were wonderful to my guests and everyone commented about how great the food was and wanting seconds. My husband and I loved Encanterra and would reccomend anyone to use them!

The moment I drove through the gates, I was confident this was the place I would get married. From beginning to end, Emily walked me through all I needed to know. The vendors were amazing, and the flexibility of choices for the bar and food was great as well. They bent over backward to make sure everyone was happy. I recommend Encanterra to all brides to be. They helped to make my wedding day the best day of my life.

From start to finish everything was perfect! Encanterra is unique and inviting! Rates were more than reasonable and truly recieved everything we paid for and more. Emily Baird made the experience stress free. She is truly an asset to Encanterra.

Encanterra provided the perfect venue for the perfect wedding! As Mother of the Bride, this was our first wedding. Emily Baird, Encanterra Event Planner, efficiently stepped us through the process offering suggestions and choices. She guided us through the do's, don'ts, and how's of wedding planning. Together with her team from Encanterra, she facilitated an exquisite ceremony and reception. This enabled us to sit back and enjoy an otherwise normally stressful event. Everything was provided with precision. After having an accident 10 days before the wedding, Encangterra even provided the wheelchair!

Emily & the rest of the Encanterra Staff were wonderful! From the time we signed the contract to the end of our reception...all our requests and wedding details were taken care of. If we had any questions or concerns through the planning process, we received immediate responses and assistance in creating our perfect day! Not only was the location so breathe-taking for both the ceremony & reception, but we had so many compliments from our guests on how professional and welcoming the staff was on the day of our wedding. Couldn't imagine a more perfect location to celebrate our love and start our new life together!

I absolutely fell in LOVE with Encanterra! If you are looking for a unique venue to get married at in AZ, this is a great option! It's rather new and has a fabulous outdoor ceremony site with the lake, golf course and mountains in the background. There is a perfect place for a cocktail reception and the reception room is right there too. The entire venue is top of the line and feels so elegant. My husband and I can't wait to go back and visit. Our guests loved this place so much and not many people know about it! And the staff is the best. They are pros at weddings!

This is the best place! Beautiful and perfect! Teagan the Event Planner at Encanterra is a JOY to work with! Everything was so easy with the planning and our wedding day was PERFECT! We were spoiled by the staff at Encanterra that day! Teagan was even there and served us our food! The food was FABULOUS! We received so many compliments on our food and venue! YOU MUST VISIT ENCANTERRA! You will be blown away! THANK YOU for a PERFECT WEDDING DAY and planning experience!

Beautiful venue with a breathtaking view, Superb service, amazing staff, delicious food, and unmatched quality! Our Wedding was truly a Winter Wonderland, which left both of us and our guests in awe, all thanks to Encanterra and some of their delightful friendors: Jan Dekker (Florist) & Serendipity ! A special thank you to Teagan Mercer, the Catering & Special Events Manager. If you have the chance to work with her, consider yourself blessed! We did! Teagan became more of a family member to us than just our "Contact" for the wedding. She anticipated all of our needs and executed everything we asked of her with timely, flawless poise that kept us confident in Encanterra's abilities. The subtle, thoughtful things she did to make us feel special, still make us smile with fond memories. Thank you, Encanterra!

Wow! When planning my wedding, I knew I wanted an outdoor venue with a Tuscan feel. Encanterra fit my vision perfectly! Not only is the venue absolutely beautiful, but the coordinator Kimberly, and the day-of staff was exceptional. We were provided with a day-of bridal concierge, which handled everything to help the day go more smoothly- arranging delivery with vendors, setting up the ceremony and reception, and setting up our decorations as well. Encanterra worked with us to create a custom menu, as well as personally serving us our plates during the station dinner. Everything on the venue's part went perfectly on the wedding day, we couldn't have asked for more professional or attentive service. They also helped my family pack up our decorations after the wedding was over, and allowed us to pick things up the next day. Kimberly and the staff at Encanterra did an excellent job at making sure our day went smoothly and ensuring the wedding of our dreams. Absolutely beautiful!Wow!

Kimberley and her staff at Encanterra Country Club were wonderful to work with in planning our wedding. We were looking for a venue that would accommodate a small wedding reception and not overcharge us for a minimum guest count. All the stress and pressure was off when we discovered Encanterra. Kimberly and her staff were very responsive and flexible with the options we wanted to make our reception perfect. The room and decor exceeded our expectations and the indoor/outdoor setting of the La Cocina space made us feel as if we had stepped into the landscape of Tuscany. My family and guests are still talking about our wedding reception and how beautiful the entire night turned out!

This is the best hidden Wedding venue in all of Phoenix area. It is beyond the most beautiful venue you have ever seen. All the staff will go out of their way to help you with whatever you need. The venue is also somewhat flexible, don't let that scare you though trust me it will most likely work out like you need it to. Kimberly is great to bounce off ideas and help you get everything ready for that day. Don't get me started on the Chef! He is the most valuable asset this venue has! The food was to die for and too yummy and accommodating!! Seriously I'm so glad that I got married there.

My husband and I got married at Encanterra on 1/4/14. Our wedding was everything we dreamed of. My only complaint would have been to have the coordinator there after grand entrance. the food was amazing and Emily was great to work with always accommodating our requests and always available. This is a great venue and I would recommend this to anyone. We couldn't have been happier with our day!!!

Our daughter was married at Encanterra CC in May. It was an extraordinary experience from start to finish. Tina was amazing and took care of every last detail! The food was incredible- as good as any 5 star restaurant in the valley! The views and service were perfect! I highly recommend considering this stunning venue. It’s a slight drive to Queen Creek but when the gates of the property open you’ll be so glad you’re there! We would pick this venue over and over again!

Beautiful venue!! No doubt about that!! I will cherish my pictures forever! Kimberly was amazing to work with! The day of the wedding I was a Little disappointed with the staff.... I expected a little more help.. for the amount you pay and what they tell you before hand didn't really add up. My day did run smoothly I just think staff could step it up a little, they should learn from Kimberly!
