Morais Vineyards & Winery — Attraction in Bealeton

Good evening, my name is Monica Irribarren. On Saturday, November 3, it was our event. During which only problems arose, and we went through a very bad experience. Our local rent started at 1:30pm-10pm. Around 1:30pm, I surveyed the promises and found everything disorganized. The decorator (hired) were placing the decoration, and the tables were just as they were given. I asked the lady in charge on why they were not armed and the answer was simple. I was not given the tablecloths. I asked the person in charge on where tablecloths were. She replied “I didn’t know what AQ referred and I have to call them.” After speaking with someone, she gave me mixed tablecloths (rectangular and round) and this was at 1:30pm. At 2:15, The Chapel was CLOSED and the person in charge disappeared on the grounds and there was no key to the Chapel. I had to talk to three different people and one of the three actually helped me. At 3:00pm, the person in charge came in the Bridal Suite and yelled at us “ What?! All of you had to be at the Chapel and the ceremony already had started!!!” I replied asking “When I rented the space of your facilities, did you give me the times and tell me the programs that I signed up for?? Or am I free to dispose of my income as best you decide it? What if last minute, the bride decided she wasn't ready to get marry?” The manager of the premises told the decorator that no one can throw petals. The petals were left made, but not thrown. At 4:00pm, uninvited visitors were in the Winery, scattered everywhere. At 4:30, the person in charge finally put the sign “Private event.” At 6:00pm exact, the person in charge began to pressure us to clean the Bridal Suite. The rent of the Bridal suite was 10am-8:00pm. They kept on disrupting our rental time and we still had two hours left. Was she trying to bother me? I asked her “What time is it?” She responded with “5:57pm” (I am not lying because everything that has happened, I have been writing down on my phone because this was just too much. One thing after the other.) When everything started to go smoothly, the electricity disconnected. That happened twice, and she didn't do anything about it!! The person in charge did NOTHING to solve the problem! All they did was shrug their shoulders. On the other hand, the lights of the room are attached to the storage. They were off despite the fact that from the beginning, I asked them to turn them on. The room looked so dark, but they just didn’t turn them on. At 9:00pm as people were leaving, she started yelling at the guests to leave the premises. While we were delivering the premises at the time and we also didn’t break any rules, absolutely no one had the right to ruin this event. (If this was your event, you also wouldn't be happy about this.) Thanks to this behavior of the lady in charge, the happiest day of my daughter life was ruined. The Bride came out CRYING from this place! Do you believe this was fair for her? Of course, you won’t lose anything because you already received your pay. This terrible experience we have received and the terrible moments we have passed, will not be...

To say that morais is managed and run poorly is an understatement of monumental proportions. We had a very expensive, very important family event here and we were massively disappointed. The owner prooved to be culturally insensitive, and overall made no concessions for an unfortunate situation out of our hands, a thunder storm. I’m not sure if that was the reason the people she has working at the winery are the way they are or if she just naturally attracts people who think and act like she does. But everyone from the owner to the others she has running the place are awful.

The weather was not in our favor. And when it became evident that the rain would require us to move everything inside they refused to budge even 15 minutes on start times. Essentially proving that their personal convenience trumps all. They should be ashamed of themselves for the horrible service they provided. I am a physician and if I have a patient whose disease requires customization on my part, I am happy to oblige to meet each patients needs. The owner and her mignons repetitively substantiated the belief that they are incapable of meeting their clients needs.... that too on the most important day of their life. If you are south Asian, please please do yourself a favor and stay away. I will do my absolute best to warn everyone I know about just how terrible they are.

Specifically they would not accommodate Hindu customs, they charged us for bars that never existed on the day of the wedding. They wouldn’t allow family members inside the winery so people were left outside in the rain.

It seems the people that like this place are all going for a daytime drinking event which is probably where this winery excels. But do not attempt to throw an event here. Save yourself the headache (not to...

Morais Vineyards and Winery is truly a dream come true wedding venue. This hidden gem surprised me and my now husband a year ago. We got engaged and started looking at several venues in the area that fit our style/look we were going for.

From the moment we contacted Morais, to our first visit - we fell in love. Everything seemed so seamless, almost too seamless. Up until the day of our wedding, the Morais team was phenomenal. We are so sad that our wedding era has come to an end, because working with Morais, the recommended vendors (Boda Maestra 100/100, C&G Catering 100/100), was genuinely some of the best moments of our wedding planning.

Our wedding could not have gone any more stress free. The venue is gorgeous beyond belief and will take the breath away from every single one of your guests. They work so well with everyone the day of and they made sure the bride & groom are 100% taken care of. I could not recommend Morais enough. I genuinely feel like this is our comfort area and will always revisit for their amazing wine. Our wedding dreams came true and I can't thank the amazing venue & vendors enough. I truly understand WHY they have specific rules and vendors in place. Trust and believe they know what they're doing and it's doing you a huge favor during the beginning stages of your wedding planning.

Cheers to these wonderful people we are so grateful to have met. We can't thank you all enough for making our...
