We just got married here 2 weeks ago and wow what an experience. From the beginning of our interactions almost a year ago the staff at the Quinta has been extremely helpful, kind and courteous. But nothing prepared us for how beautiful the venue truly is. Such a special place. We had close to 35 people stay on site and the rest in airbnbs close to the venue. The Quinta is stunning inside out. Truly feels out of a dream. Beautiful gardens everywhere and how the staff manages to keep the property tidy and presentable is truly commendable, especially given how quickly they switch between each wedding. We requested for extra meals to be cooked by the Quinta and truly the food is delicious! The variety and selection is fresh and caters to all audiences. Special shoutout to the delicious BBQ. We did a welcome dinner on the back terrace, the ceremony garden for our cocktail hour and the courtyard for reception and they were all such stunning spaces! It truly feels like a dream. We can not say enough about the time we had here. The only call out I have is uber service - this responsibility does not fall under other the Quinta but we would recommend pre arranging taxi service whenever possible as it was challenging to call and uber after 10pm. If you are considering to do your wedding here, I would 100% recommend it!!!
