History

Owners Alan and Kay Needle purchased the ranch in 1997 in order to expand their love for performance horses. The two had also been building and designing furniture for the past 20 years and decided to incorporate their pieces into the ranch. They now offer many of their pieces at the Tucalota Creek Ranch. In 2009, Kay and Alan ventured into the wine world and started up Tucalota Creek Ranch Cellars. They strive to bring you the best products possible and provide the ranch lifestyle to their clients.

Beautiful Venue!

We had our dream wedding at Tucalota Creek Ranch in October with the help of the HG wedding team. We fell in love with this venue the second we saw it! The venue and the wedding team they work with great and easy to work with. It is such a beautiful venue and the owners are such nice great people. We couldn’t have been happier with how it all turned out! All of our guest can’t stop raving about how much they loved the venue and how beautiful it was! The property has such natural beauty we didn’t feel the need for too much of our own decor. Would definitely recommend!

Everything we wanted and more

Tucalota Creek Ranch and the HG Wedding Team were so accommodating to my husband and I right from the very beginning. The property the venue is on is so beautiful and rustic with lots of greenery all over. The week of our wedding we were all checking the weather non-stop as it kept changing from raining to not raining and right up to our wedding day everyone worked so hard to make it beautiful and perfect. Even with the rain it was everything we hoped for and more, we wouldn't change a thing about our day. Heather with HG Weddings and her team were all amazing too, we wanted our wedding to go smooth and be stress free and it truly was. We can't wait to come back in 30 years and renew our vows so we can do it all over again!

Hidden Gem with Many Possibilities!!!!!

As a wedding planner, I have had the opportunity to work with several venues in the Temecula area. TCR met and exceeded my expectations. My couple had lost their original venue, and TCR was willing to work with them so they couple have the wedding of their dreams. The staff was very attentive and were willing to assist when needed. The grounds were well kept, and ready when the decorating staff arrived to set up for the wedding. I would highly recommend to my clients to check TCR out as a wonderful wedding venue. They have a great groom's area and bridal cabin that make getting ready for the day easy. I truly feel that TCR is a hidden gem with so many possibilities for the wedding of your dreams!
