Why We Love The Meritage for Weddings

The beauty of The Meritage Resort & Spa is that it truly has everything you need for an unforgettable wedding weekend. Whether you’re dreaming of an intimate gathering or a grand celebration, this venue has multiple spaces that can accommodate various guest counts and styles.

• Vineyard Deck (Ceremony): Surrounded by rolling vineyards, the Vineyard Deck creates a picture-perfect setting for saying “I do.” For K & W’s wedding, we transformed the existing gazebo into a whimsical, romantic structure with soft draping, natural vines, and cascading florals. The addition of a crystal chandelier elevated the entire look, making it feel ethereal and enchanting.

• Lower Vineyard Deck (Cocktail Hour): After the ceremony, guests moved to the Lower Vineyard Deck for cocktail hour, sipping local Napa wines while enjoying the sunset over the vines. It’s an effortlessly beautiful transition that keeps the flow of the day seamless and scenic.

• The Estate Cave (Reception Option for Intimate Weddings): For couples wanting a more intimate, moody, and romantic reception space, the Estate Cave is the ultimate hidden gem. With candlelight, rustic wine barrels, and a cozy ambiance, it’s perfect for a small yet luxurious gathering.

• The Grand Ballroom (Reception Option for Larger Weddings): If you’re hosting a larger guest count, the Grand Ballroom provides a refined, elegant indoor space. And, it still feels warm and inviting. Their reception here was filled with lush florals! And to top it off a delicious farm-to-table meal, and an electric dance floor that kept guests celebrating all night long.
