Absolutely unmatched

I have been coming to Eagle Ridge since I was little, so when it was time to choose a wedding venue it was a no brainer. The property is beautiful during all seasons, extremely well kept, and just created as an oasis of nature. On top of that, the team they have there is incredible! They were extremely accommodating, kind and always there if you needed something. The wedding coordinators they have on staff are all so generous, thoughtful, and efficient. Maggie was AMAZING!! Being the bride I was walked through the process of everything through the months of planning. She was always easy to get in touch with and I was checked on multiple times during the actual day of my wedding ready to help with absolutely anything. They make you feel important and seen all whilst bringing a sense of comfort and peace of mind to you because you know that you are taken care of. I would HIGHLY recommend Eagle Ridge Resort and Spa over and over again not only because of the location, but because of their amazing team.

Best Venue Ever!!!!

We got married at Eagle Ridge on 6/17/23 (Hot air balloon weekend) and had the absolute best experience. We hosted 240 people comfortably and every single one of our guests raved about how it was one of the best weddings ever. We got married on Point Patio and had our dinner reception in their ballroom. The photos speak for themselves. Just spectacular service and accommodations from Eagle Ridge (specifically Maggie wedding coordinator). 10/10 stars.

Wedding Weekend at Eagle Ridge

We had our wedding weekend at Eagle Ridge and it was absolutely perfect! Thank you to Alisha who was our main contact from the beginning, she was wonderful to work with from beginning to end.

Alisha, Maggie and Sarah on the wedding team made our weekend such a success and were there for anything we needed from the moment we arrived until the time we checked out.

The Woodland's Restaurant & Bar team were great, our family and friends kept them busy from Friday - Sunday and received great service throughout the entire weekend.

The Front Desk team + shuttle service team made all of our guest experience seamless and enjoyable .

Thank you to everyone at Eagle Ridge for the best wedding weekend!
