The Ridges Resort on Lake Chatuge wedding venue

Our daughter was married in September 2021 at The Ridges Resort on Lake Chatuge.
All activities were done at The Ridges, including the rehearsal dinner (in High Cove Ridge), ceremony (event pier) and reception (Red Banks Ridge room.)
From the beginning the staff at the Ridges was incredible to work with. They were always accessible if we had any questions and guided us through the whole process.
Andrea (Andy) Allen, senior sales manager, was incredible to work with. (We also hired her as day-of coordinator.) Steven Jarrard, banquet manager, was fabulous and his attitude infectious. We were very happy with the food for the reception. And breakfast in The Oaks onsite was fabulous daily!
The front desk staff was so cheerful and helpful, the wait staff and bartenders for events, etc. were all top notch. We’d be remiss if we did not mention Zachary Koss.
It seems Zachary was there the whole weekend; working breakfasts, the wedding reception, etc. Everyone was so impressed with his hustle, great attitude and friendliness. My 85-year-old Mother loved him!
This was the perfect wedding weekend and The Ridges is definitely a huge reason why. Heartily recommend The Ridges Resort on Lake Chatuge for your nuptials!

Amazing from start to finish!

We looked around extensively for a wedding venue that fit our needs. The Ridges Resort is absolutely breathtaking! Our coordinator Andy, was very friendly and easy to work with. She (along with the entire Ridges Staff) was professional, responsive, organized, detailed and worked with us to make our day absolutely perfect. We can't wait to visit the resort again!

Stop Looking & Book Here!!

Getting engaged right before COVID-19, we were excited to have our wedding at the Ridges. When we saw venue nightmare stories, weddings cancelled, we started to panic. Andy from The Ridges put all our minds and hearts at ease with making our big day a realty.
This is the perfect venue if you want a more intimate weekend with friends and family while being in a beautiful place, with incredible food and activities.
Wedding day was a BREEZE, we got a ton of compliments on the food, and walking into our reception and seeing the magic the Ridges created brought me to tears.
I'm so glad we have a place we can go back and relive the best day of our life. Our memories at The Ridges are just starting thanks to wonderful and outstanding hospitality!!
