Picture Perfect Mini Destination Mountain Wedding

Planning a mini wedding in the middle of a pandemic all the way from California should have been extremely stressful, but Schweitzer's team knocked it out of the park! Being used to California's competitive wedding industry, we were shocked at how easy Cassandra and Amy made it for us every step of the way. Responding to our dozens of emails and questions, being flexible and organized, providing so many details. We weren't able to travel up and see the actual venue until two months before the wedding and we were blown away with how perfect our custom package was. And when the weather shifted at the last minute, it was still a breeze. We were married on the Musical Chairs Patio with stunning views and the reception was in the Lakeview Lodge at sunset. The catering was delicious and there were so many options to choose from! Reception and Bar staff were awesome. The whole night was seamless! Thank you Schweitzer!

Best wedding venue ever!

I don’t even know where to begin. You will NOT be disappointed. Schweitzer Mountain Resort (SMR) was such an amazing venue and the staff were absolutely professional and so helpful. I could not have planned this Covid wedding without their help. It was like hiring wedding planners without the extra cost. Cassandra, Amy and Kim were extremely communicative, accommodating and helpful. They made everything go so smoothly during the planning process and day of and had an answer or solution for every possible thing. My fiancé and I were planning the wedding sight unseen from Washington and SMR was seriously the perfect team supporting us and making our day so special and memorable. We could not have asked for a better venue or support on our special day. Cassandra and Kim played such a huge part in our wedding plans and day I COULD NOT imagine it without them. Overall the most perfect wedding and venue we could have ever imagined. We are still in shock at how affordable everything was too. You will not be disappointed in selecting Schweitzer as your destination wedding location. We will definitely be back to visit!
