Temecula Creek Inn

. But first, let me start out by saying that my wedding was already a lot to handle. We had SO many intimate, particular details and special requests; each one TCI’s team embraced and found a way to make happen. TCI was the one and only wedding venue we visited, it was love at first sight… we just knew there was no place that could beat it. The grounds are STUNNING. You can golf, eat at their restaurant, hang by the pool, you can play music as late as you want at the Stoneheouse AND it accommodated all 266 of my guests.  We worked closely with Crystal at the start. She is wonderful, I immediately felt as if I had known her for years. She worked so well with us, showing us the grounds, talking us through all the options, while making us feel special and totally taken care of. As the wedding drew closer our coordinator, Cara took over. Who I also fell in love with. She is calm, confident, bubbly, and just perfect. She will literally do anything to make sure you are happy. She makes you feel like the most important bride she’s ever worked with, even though she's probably working with 20 at one time. When we stayed the weekend there during preparations, she sent us a bottle of wine, she answered my texts at 2 am when I was feeling stressed. I honestly do not have enough words for how much I love her. We were so impressed by everyone we worked with at TCI. I miss those girls, we have had lunch dates just so we can see each other. They are family now! We stayed at TCI's guest house for several days, where we hosted a welcome party & a farewell brunch. We had our rehearsal dinner at The Meadows- and it was just gorgeous. Up until Saturday morning at 11am everything was going perfectly. Then we got the news that an intense fire had broken out less than a mile from where we were supposed to get married. Not only was the hotel at risk for evacuating but our venue was at risk of going up in flames. I will probably never know the extent of all the hard work Cara, Crystal and the TCI staff did that day, there were times when everyone was sure that we weren’t going to be able to have the wedding at all. But, nothing stopped TCI from doing everything in their power to try to make it work. Helicopters gathered water from a pond on TCI’s property, and firefighters worked diligently to get the fire out. Miraculously the winds shifted and the smoke cleared and we were able to have the wedding. Cara, Crystal and team were just as ecstatic as the rest of us. When I arrived at the venue site I was BLOWN AWAY... it didn't look like anything even happened, it was absolutely perfect. They even let us stay an extra hour to make up for delays the fire caused. Everyone of my guests commented on the how beautiful it was and how smoothly it was run even with all the events of that day. Many people say it was their favorite wedding ever. That just speaks to how INCREDIBLE TCI is. When most places would crumble under the pressure and stress of that day TCI just kept plugging along, dedicated to seeing our dream wedding happen. They love their clients, they love what they do and they are insanely good at it. TCI is the best, I wish I could get married again. It was the best day of our lives. We love them SO much!

ith! The whole staff takes care of every detail you can think of. Everything from our rehearsal dinner to our room bookings and our wedding day went absolutely perfectly! They truly care about their clients and the location and atmosphere is a dream!

s very fun and even gave us a chance to meet new vendors who we eventually hired. And the food is delicious!! We had guests tell us it was the best meal they'd ever had at a wedding - we didn't have any leftovers! Our wedding weekend went off without a hitch, in big part due to TCI staff and their helpfulness. My friends and family were so impressed with everything and I was able to have a virtually stress free wedding! Perrin was our on site coordinator and she was just amazing. Always available to answer my random questions and ease any worries I had. Our guests that stayed at the hotel loved it and now talk about going back to stay again. The groom and groomsmen stayed at the Creekside Guest House, which I definitely recommend as they had an awesome time golfing and enjoying the house that weekend. I have nothing but wonderful things to say about our wedding at TCI.

alls Plaza (all at TCI) so our guests did not have to be shuttled around. TCI made each event go off without a hitch -- so I did not have to worry about anything at all and could just enjoy it. Even when our rehearsal dinner venue effectively canceled on us the Monday before the Friday event, Perrin saved the day and, without making it a big deal, rearranged everything (on her day off) so we could have our rehearsal dinner onsite before welcome drinks. The wedding itself at the Stone House was spectacular -- it's such a unique, gorgeous venue. The people working the event did an amazing job with every guest -- and I was impressed with how they treated me and my now husband. During the cocktail hour, they made sure we had everything we needed. During dinner, they placed samples of the passed apps by our plates in case we didn't get any. While we walked around to tables during dinner, they came by to let us know our food was being kept heated and to let them know when we'd like it. Also, I may be biased, but I always find wedding food is meh -- the food at our wedding was AMAZING. And the coffee -- weirdly delicious! All in all, I cannot say enough nice things about TCI. If you want a wedding that you'll be able to enjoy because they'll handle everything for you -- chose TCI. And ask for Perrin :)

en room for lawn games. TCI is affordable and the wedding staff was great. I highly recommend this venue!

planning/venue selection process we heard NIGHTMARE stories and so I was incredibly hesitant to lock in on a venue. However, upon an impromptu pit-stop at TCI in June 2015, Crystal the Catering Sales Mgr greeted us and, despite not having an appointment (*not recommended), showed us around the property and provided us with a quote to consider. I was overwhelmed by her welcoming demeanor and impeccable customer service, by far the BEST experience we had at a site visit...and there were MANY (around 25+). In addition to her help onsite, Crystal was prompt and frequent with her follow up to make sure all questions were answered and to help get us to a place that was comfortable for our budget. With all of that in consideration it just seemed meant to be so we locked in...fast forward to November/December, a bit of staffing changes/shuffling (and many payment installments later), and I started to get a bit nervous (thinking, "yup this is where the nightmare begins, they hooked us, we're in it now") ...then Crystal made the hand-off and we were introduced to Cara (a brand new hire) who was going to be the one to help make the day happen. I was skeptical at first but she was so sweet, thorough, and all-around lovely, I left our final details meeting with a really great feeling about her. Fast forward to the week/day of the wedding...PURE CHAOS...in my world (lol...okay, well perhaps not "pure chaos", but there was a lot of moving parts I was trying to keep track of vendors to confirm, final payments to be made, miscellaneous details and decor to be inventoried and packed...you get the idea). On top of it all, El Nino decided to be a VERY special guest at our wedding (think of that drunk uncle who is just wayyyy to loud and really doesn't know when to leave). Despite the inclement weather we pushed on (with the entirely outdoor venue + last minute tent). Cara was AWESOME, she kept in constant contact with me, provided her cell # and was great about texting when I needed confirmation on anything. Additionally, the hotel staff were SPECTACULAR -- from check in, through the BIG NIGHT, and checking out that Saturday I truly felt like we were valued guests and everyone wanted to make our experience great! Special shout outs the front desk staff who orchestrated delivery of over a dozen welcome baskets to my out-of-town guests, the banquet staff (and Nikki --our server who made sure me and the hubby got to eat at the wedding!) and everyone else who went above and beyond to make sure we had absolutely everything we needed throughout the 3 days we were there. We cannot wait to go back and celebrate our special day again, and again! You've truly earned life-long customers :-)

too shabby chic rustic - just very elegant. The natural light comes in through the trees in the evening and at night the chandelier and the patio lighting across the dance floor is just magical! The pictures you see on the internet do not do the beauty of this place justice! You must see it in person! The food was amazing! I have been to weddings where many brides have said the food at the tasting was much better but it was truly better at the wedding! The staff was amazing! First of all huge shout out to Jen. She was so helpful in the whole process and was so on top of things. She helped me through the planning 7 months in and was eager to answer all my questions to help me have the perfect day! She worked with my parents and I to get the perfect wedding package for us! The day before at the rehearsal the grass was a bit muddy so they replaced several patches where it was looking sad and muddy! Amazing! During dinner and cocktail hour the staff made sure we had drinks and food available to us and they even set aside hor d'oeuvres so we could enjoy them when we finally sat down! We also stayed at the inn which I highly recommend. The rooms were beautiful and we had so many family and friends that stayed there and loved it as well. We had our whole bridal party stay there the night before and the staff worked with us to make sure we had the brides and bridesmaid rooms in a good location for pictures but far enough from the groom and groomsmen room so he wouldn't run into me. Big thanks to Jim to help with our room block. The night of the wedding my new husband and I had a complimentary room overlooking the golf course - it originally had been booked right next to my parents room but the were quick to change that! It was a beautiful suite and we were welcomed there with rose petals a thank you note from our amazing coordinator Jen and champagne and a TCI blanket! They run such a wonderful establishment and know what they are doing! I definitely recommend using this venue for your wedding! Our guests are still raving about what a beautiful wedding and venue it was!

accrue, its worth it. We had our wedding at their Stone House site which if you ever have the chance to look at it, you should. It is breath taking. Because of it's beauty we only bought flowers for decorations and ended up saving money in the long run compared to if we would have had to decorate a less beautiful site.

ring when the flowers were in full bloom. Temecula Creek Inn spared no expense at creating a welcoming and serene atmosphere with their landscaping, especially as you entered the main drive. The rooms, however, could use some updating, which is why only gave Temecula Creek Inn four stars.

th. The Stonehouse location had all of this and more. From the moment we toured the location, I was in love, and stopped looking anywhere else. Once we booked the venue, the ladies on the catering staff were incredibly helpful and attentive. No question I had went unanswered. Any time I wanted to make an appointment and look at something on site, they were more than willing to book it and allow me to do what I needed to help nail down details. Kellie was our day of, and took care of the final details, and she is incredible. She has been working in this industry for awhile, and it shows in her organization and attentiveness. The food was absolutely fabulous, they have so many choices, so no request will be forgotten here. From vegetarian to gluten free, they literally have it all. To top it off, I had SO many people tell me that the food was the absolute best they've ever had at a wedding. Overall, this was the best experience of my life. If you're looking for a Temecula venue, I encourage you to look at Temecula Creek Inn. To this day, I am still getting remarks from long time family friends that this was the best wedding they've ever been to, and I thank TCI for helping make it so wonderful.

mac n cheese, Martini glasses filled with mash potatoes). It was a giant hit with our guests. Everyone at Temecula creek Inn did a wonderful job. ( Laura K. was awesome). The whole wedding went off without any problems due to their careful planning and care. Thank you so much for giving my daughter her dream wedding. A Very Happy Mother of the Bride Julie

the rooms are beautiful. It is quite expensive, especially with a food and beverage minimum as well as a site rental fee. Also, you can't visit the wedding site (we got married at the Stone House) before the ceremony, so make sure you have someone you trust to set everything up for you. Also, be sure you get vendors that are familiar with how things runs, especially at the stone house site because it can be difficult to transport anything. It was the perfect setting for the best day of my life!

rs at this venue are very knowledgable and helpful, but my concern was I had to talk to 3 different coordinators in the span of a year. In the end, everything was perfect, ceremony was great, and the reception even better. There us also hotel rooms and golf courses at this site (which helped with guests).

our last one we got 3 days before the wedding. I am a huge planner, and very organized, and every time we sat down with a new coordinator they did not know ANYTHING that was previously mentioned/planned. The day of the wedding, my coordinator checked in with me 2x, but never returned my family's phone calls (who were helping set up the wedding). We found the coordinator actually showing the venue to potential clients instead of helping us. During the wedding, guests were served 1.5 hours AFTER the initial guest was served (they said they ran out of food), and our vendors were not fed timely or correctly (paid for certain plate for them, they got leftover veggie plates). Anyway, our wedding was great because of our friends, family, and of course marrying my best friend...but would NOT recommend the service. The venue/site itself is beautiful though...if you choose this place, I would recommend hiring an outside coordinator.

the giant wrap around porch. We could see the sun coming up and it was beautiful. Only deterent from the room is that it didn't have any kind of fancy jacuzzi tub. That would have just made it a million times better, but we really enjoyed our stay. The staff was really friendly and the food that we ordered for breakfast was delicious although it did take quite a while to arrive to our room.

after we booked with the venue, sometimes having to call several times and wait days for a call or email back. We think this was most likely because they were short-staffed rather than any serious issue with customer service, and all of our interactions with the team at TCI were extremely positive. Both Ally and Milene were very helpful and kind when we did have meetings and were able to connect on the phone. On the wedding day (when it really counted) everything went perfectly - the service was wonderful and the food was delicious!

food and Bar for 150 guest. There shouldn't be a line!! Also if you have a late night snack make sure its well thought out. Dont expect them to know how to excute anything with out proper instruction. all these things depend on the kind of bride you are but i planned every detail from bathroom baskets, rented vintage funiture, smores bar, photo booth,bagpiper,butterfly relase, clothes line,tons of favors, my favorite butterfly saches,cigar lounge, fire pit with quilts, benches, pillows, and rocking chairs, to many things to remember. Make a List this is my biggest regret. I hired a stylist, florist, day of coordinator and her assist. the coordinator sucked!Instead of making sure everthing was beautiful she micro manged me all day. I wanted to kill her! Brides note to self make a list for your team and give a time when it needs to be done by. Your guest walk thought your reception area have it set and looking beautiful. My coordinator didnt have my favors on the plates or my name cards tied to the chairs. A huge detail that was so poorly excuted. It was very hard for me to let go I wanted to be out helping. Everyones different. Still the best day ever

rson finds the wedding venue that suits their own taste, but the Temecula Creek Inn was perfect for us. We had an excellent experience with the lovely ladies who worked with us from day one to the night of our wedding. After making hundreds of changes, everyone at TCI was still so gracious and helpful. I loved our wedding. Thank you TCI!!!!!!!!!

e ceremony), the food was amazing, the setting was so romantic and naturally beautiful, the coordinator was super helpful and made me feel so relaxed, and the room was great too! Awesome place for a wedding! Have no complaints and highly recommend TCI!

All the twinkly lights provided by TCI really transform the site at night. The staff is also very helpful, and really works with you to give you exactly what you want. The only reason I didn't give them 5 stars was because they do not have bridal/groom changing rooms and you can't check into your complimentry room until 4:00, so this makes it difficult for getting ready pictures ect, but other than that everythin was perfect!

The Lomi-lomi Salmon was spot on. Only downside was needing to book 2 nights min for our guests. The champagne and chocolate covered strawberries left in our room were a surprising and nice touch.

ter speaking with Alison the site coordinator things were easier from there. They do have several departments within the facility for a wedding venue, but for a small fee Alison will work everything out which made it much less stressful as the bride. I would suggest this venue to other brides due to its unique destination wedding abilities, but don't be afraid to ask the coordinator 1,000 questions as I did. She does have prompt responses and will help work out just about any budget.

the area for the ceremony and reception. We went with their catering and the food was top notch. We had a night time wedding the lighting and fire pit was perfect for the feeling that we wanted for our wedding. FYI Don’t use their onsite wedding planner, they were not very helpful the day of and we were in a rush to complete set up before our wedding. Outside of the unprofessionalism of the wedding planners this is a perfect site.

ordinator that comes with the location was not friendly, did not know her customer relations, was not prepared. People/guests have to be shuttled in by Van, I forgot to let my guests know this.
