We got married at Maderas in June 2021 and had the best experience. Not only is the property STUNNING, but Chelsea made things so easy for us when it came to planning. Especially during pandemic and ever changing rules and restrictions. Chelsea...
was always very quick at responding to emails and messages and she really is a FULL SERVICE planner. Took care of everything, from dealing with rentals to contacting all of our vendors to make sure everything ran smoothly the day of. Having the bridal house was a perfect addition to making our day so special. It was the perfect amount of space so that we could bring in hair and make up and had the best lighting for pictures. Our beauty team and my bridesmaids could not stop raving about the house and all the space. The catering had changed during covid but I feel like we really lucked out. There was so many unique choices and the food was also delicious. Our guests all talked about how good the food tasted and the beautiful presentation. All together we had the best day and could not say enough great things about Maderas and all the staff!

We worked with Rebecca, wedding coordinator, and she was always very pleasant, easy to work with, and helpful. Unfortunately, our wedding/ reception have been postponed indefinitely due to COVID-19, but Patrick, the general manager, and Chelsea, the wedding coordinator, have been very accommodating and understanding. We hope that we will be able to have our wedding there once COVID is gone.

general manager, and Chelsea, our wedding specialist, have been so accommodating and generous with their time and resources. There are so many wonderful things I would like to share about them and how amazing they have been in this process! This has been such a whirlwind trying to figure everything out, and they have been nothing but helpful and accommodating to ensure our happiness for our special day. Not only did they each reach out to us individually to see if we needed anything, but collectively as the Maderas Team. I highly recommend this venue not only for the beautiful location and property, but also for the experience of working with such amazing staff members! From the time we walked into the front door until we left the parking lot, each member was so kind and helpful! What an amazing staff and venue for a wedding or event! Thank you for helping us out when this crazy season and circumstances has hit us all!

As soon as I stepped onto the Maderas grounds during our tour, I knew it was *the* venue. We did our entire wedding there: ceremony, cocktail hour and reception. Because it's this "tucked away" aka hidden gem of a golf course, it feels like ...
it's your own on the day of. First off, Chelsea was an AMAZING wedding specialist/catering manager. I can't begin to tell you how many emails I sent her and how she'd always respond super fast and answer all of my questions. There is no doubt the success of our wedding going off without a hitch is owed to her. She's phenomenal and worked so so well with all our vendors. Next, you cannot beat La Casa - their one-of-a-kind bridal suite - for getting ready. We had access to it starting at 7am and no hourly limits as some venues have. Finally, besides the gorgeous grounds and ballroom, the food at Maderas (courtesy of chef Earl Schryver) is exceptional. We got so many rave reviews about the food and felt proud to have served our guests something they truly enjoyed. Overall, Maderas was the absolute perfect place for my wedding and I cannot recommend it enough for couples looking in the San Diego area.

oor ceremony, outdoor cocktail hour, and indoor reception here. Our guests kept commenting on how beautiful of a venue this was! The Tuscan-decor ballroom is large enough to fill a big wedding but was also warm enough to accommodate my smaller wedding of 75. Perhaps the best part, the gem, of Maderas, is Chelsea White. From start to finish, she was so helpful, kind, and sweet. She patiently answered all of my questions, helped my wedding vision come to light, kindly worked with an outside food caterer who might have been a bit of a diva, and patiently listened as I ranted about our less than stellar DJ. :) She was the last person I saw before I walked out to say my I-dos and was so calming and reassuring. She graciously allowed us to come back and shoot more wedding photos after the day of due to lack of time and was kind enough to take us to different spots on course to get the pictures we wanted. In short, she made our special day as flawless as possible and the whole Maderas experience was excellent. You will not be disappointed!

as my wedding planners when it wasn't expected. I would do it a million times over, but only if I had the two of them by my side again. They made everything easier and I cannot say enough good things about them; professional, thoughtful, and just a joy to work with. You name it, they are on top of it! For example, I purchased my sweetheart table linen and it wasn't set to come in until the week of my wedding. Without even asking or thinking I needed it, Adam had a backup plan and linens set aside in case it didn't come in. And sure enough, we needed that backup plan – lifesavers! Not to mention, Chef Earl is an AMAZING chef! We ended up having our rehearsal dinner at Maderas as well just because of how great they are. Adam and Brandon made my special day a breeze & my guests absolutely loved Chef Earl's food. Maderas made us feel like family and that was the best gift ever!

We owe a huge debt of gratitude and hugs to our ever so talented Chef Earl Schryver for his attention to the details of all the varied guests and their tastes at rehearsal dinner and the spectacular layout for the wedding reception and dinner.

talk about how friendly, professional, genuine, and awesome Laura is. She is very flexible and more than willing to work with you. We had some vendors who wanted to do things their way and didn't quite understand that venues have standard protocols on certain things and Laura was extremely understanding in helping us deal with them and avoiding extra charges that aren't in her hands. We had some last minute changes which I am sure she probably hated us for but always had a smile on her face and happily made those changes. Laura was very responsive and quick to answer all our questions. Her job is extremely stressful and she has so much going on but she always manages to make is seem like your wedding/event is the only thing going on. Full, undivided attention every time we met. Having a beautiful venue is only half the win; having that special person help manage everything along the way is what makes Maderas a guaranteed 100% win all the time.

She also remembers everything, all of the little details and definitely helped us bring our vision to life. We planned from afar (Minneapolis), so this was a big deal! My husband golfed with family and friends all week leading up to the wedding and said the course was amazing. The Maderas also gave him a couple free rounds and let our guests golf at the member rate which was great! One of my favorite parts of the process was the bridal suite with my ladies beforehand. This place is like a fairytale and we were greeted with fresh fruit and champagne to kick off the day. The 8 hours leading up to say "I do" flew by, everyone was having the BEST time! Before the ceremony our wedding party was treated to beers and champagne as well as refreshments ... and after, we were greeted with more beers and my favorite cocktail before pictures. The little gestures were so thoughtful and certainly didn't go unnoticed. They even joined our photographer / Videographer for pictures to ensure we knew where to go. Since the wedding has ended, we have received so many compliments on the venue from our guests. We have heard everything from how beautiful the views were, to how nice it was to have the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception in three separate areas on the same property allowing a different view/experience. BUT, the biggest one was the food... people LOVED the food!!! AH it really was so amazing, and we could not be more thankful to Laura and the entire Maderas team. -- The Risingers

The Grounds: It is evident that the owners take pride in the presentation of the club by keeping everything green, lush and exceptionally clean. It almost looks like a resort. There was PLENTY of parking for all of my guests and the ballroom is...
a landmark on the premises. No need to worry about guests not being able to find you. The Ceremony Site: I used the Del Lago Garden for my ceremony and there was ample room for my 175 guests. The lawn was perfectly green and the view was spectacular. The Ballroom: The ballroom is one hell of a venue. The ceilings were palacial and the décor was not overly gaudy. This ballroom was perfect for my gold and deep summer colored wedding. CLEANLINESS was clearly a top priority here as there was not one crumb or speck on the floor, all of the tables and chairs were in pristine condition. The wrought iron chandeliers gave it such a classic look and the amber lighting gave it a splash of romance. The catering team took such good care of making sure there was nothing that looked less than perfect. The Food: No cutting corners or tiny portions here!! Nothing is worse than sitting at a wedding and feeling hungry. Cocktail hour with the tray passed appetizers were such a hit, the options you are given are really meant to fit all palettes and dietary needs. Guests were nearly full and dinner hadn’t even started. The portions were pretty substantial. Our guests had a choice between Wild Sea Bass and Filet Mignon and each were equally as delicious. The Sea Bass was flaky and flavorful and the Filet was cooked to perfection. Rice and potatoes accompanied their respective proteins and we were able to choose which went with which. The veggies were so perfectly cooked, with just that perfect crunch finish. …in addition to your cake you can have a LATE NIGHT DESSERT. Truly a wonderful dining experience. Food was piping hot where it should have been hot and nice and crisp cold where it should have been cold. Perfection. The Staff: Everyone was so kind and attentive not only to me (being the bride) but to everyone. We had their full and undivided attention all night and they were so concerned with how I was doing and how mu guests were doing. Not one thing went overlooked, no cutting corners, and the bartender made the drinks nice and strong…which was awesome because it got everyone loose and on the dance floor. Catering/Event Manager: LAURA MAKES DREAMS COME TRUE! PERIOD. We met Laura on her day off, which already gave us a hint at her work ethic. She was so warm, welcoming and made us feel so welcome. The beauty of the club sells itself so not one word out of her mouth sounded like a sales pitch. She showed us the club top to bottom and showed us every option we could possibly choose from for our special day. Throughout the whole process working with Laura made the planning of this wedding so calm and relaxed. Her organization and confidence in her craft did not stress me out one bit. She was on top of communicating with me and covering every aspect of the event in a timely manner. Not once did I feel rushed to make a decision. She is also there for you to make any recommendations if you are stuck on a decision. My entire family just fell in love with her and the way she was able to fit our needs rather than make us fit the needs of the club. She wanted me to have my dream wedding, she executed perfectly and we love her for it. Mutual respect goes a long way…I’ll leave it at that

We visited another country club and a few hotels, but my mind was already made up. I just had to twist my husband's arm :) We worked closely with Laura Magid and Niki Ellis in the months leading up to the wedding. They were so helpful and responsive when we had questions.

My and my husband were the last to receive the dinner meal .. I mean really ... That was the start to many things going wrong ... But overall we had a great time!

Katy coordinated my reception in the amazingly beautiful Tuscan ballroom. Katy was always available for my every concern. She took care of everything! I definitely recommend this venue for a special occasion!

We planned our wedding from the East Coast, and Maderas (and Katy, the catering manager) made planning a pleasure. We held our ceremony on the lawn overlooking the course, and our reception in the ballroom. Food was delicious, the space was...
large and well laid out. We had access to La Casa, a small house owned by the course down the road from the site, to get ready in with my moms and bridesmaids. They even provided some fruit, sodas and champagne for while we prepped. :) Katy was great to work with- she was super responsive whenever we had questions, and helped us with all the details along the way! It was a pleasure working with her.

Our wedding was on June 22, 2013. And Jon & I couldn't have been any happier with choosing Maderas Golf Club for our wedding reception. It was close proximity from our church where we had our ceremony (St. Gabriel's). Not only is the drive to M...
aderas is beautiful (like you're transported to Italy), but also the 360 views when you get to the grounds. The Del Lago ballroom was perfect size for the reception we wanted (200 guests). During our reception, the cocktail hour was held outside and everyone enjoyed the views. It was sunny, but they provided umbrellas/parasols to provide shade. The setup inside the ballroom was beautiful- it was everything the we imagined! The food was delicious-- we got the pistachio-crusted chicken with medjool date sauce-- my friends still bring it up when we saw them weeks after our wedding. All the staff the we encountered were very friendly. We want to thank Katy, the catering manager, she's amazing! From the very beginning and throughout the planning process, she was very helpful and patient- Easy to get in contact with and always quick to respond with any of our inquiries. We love Maderas! Jon and I plan to go back some time and check out their burger nights and enjoy the fire pit outside :) -- Jon & Lindsay Capili

or cocktail area immensely, and we still get complements! Most of all however, the Maderas co-ordinator we worked with, Katy, is AMAZING. She is super helpful, easy to work with, and made our journey throughout the entire process seamless. There wasn't a single question she dismissed as "stupid" although we had inundated her with so many of them! We will treasure our day and remember Maderas as that special place where we danced for the first time as husband and wife!

I used Maderas for my wedding reception this past September. They have EXCELLENT food as long as you're willing to work with them on EXACTLY what you want. The grounds and staff are nice, but make sure to keep your eye on your signed contract a...
nd all your emails to make sure you're getting everything you asked for. There is definitely some miscommunications that happen on the sales side that differ from what you expect with the actual service.

Maderas was amazing. My guests raved about the meals (herb crusted chicken and filet mignon). Maderas was flexible and met all of our wants and demands for the day - such as open to vendors starting at 9:00 in the morning, passing out dessert i...
nstead of making a dessert table, etc. The wedding coordinator set up all of our stuff that day. It was stress free. My guests loved the view and the location. I loved that they provided free golf and a hotel night for us (that we can use any time throughout the next year), as well as the rooms to get ready. The negatives - they provided chips and beer for the groom and groomsmen while they get ready and fruit platter for the ladies. But it is not enough food, plan on providing more for your bridal party. My dad ran out to get us sandwiches that day. The location is far from the freeway - make sure your guests have a way to get home if the drinking gets out of hand.
Response from the Vendor on 05/24/2012
Thank you so much for taking the time to review your experience at Maderas- it really is important to us! It was a pleasure to work with you and so happy to hear your wedding day was enjoyable. We pride ourselves in giving each client our ...
undivided attention for their big day in and making sure everything is just as you envisioned. As part of many of our packages we do offer the Bridal Dressing Room for pre-wedding pampering to include fresh fruit, champagne and bottled water for the ladies and imported beer and house made chips for the men. Many of our bridal parties arrive at 9 am in La Casa to get ready when the wedding is not until much later in the day; I was remiss to not let you know that you could order more food or several local companies will deliver directly to La Casa. I will make sure to do that as a go forward. Many of the local hotels provide shuttles and taxis are available as well for your guests. Congratulations and thanks again for your review!
