The venue, service, and team behind Alpine are absolutely amazing. Helen made sure my guests and I felt as comfortable as possible throughout the evening. They also made sure I was happy with absolutely every detail involved in the day.

BEST Wedding Venue EVER!!!!!
The year 2020 has been anything but normal, but our August 2020 wedding couldn't have been more perfect! Our wedding was originally planned for June 20, 2020, but it was postponed until August due to Covid. We can't say enough good things about Helen and the Alpine Banquet staff. Helen was so optimistic, kind, helpful and supportive. We couldn't have asked for a better person to be in charge when our cake showed up partially destroyed. Helen was able to step in and instruct the baker on what needed to be done to have enough cake for everyone and was able to fix the other layers so that if you didn't know there was supposed to be another layer you wouldn't know. After the wedding our baker even complemented us on how well Helen handled the situation when the baker herself was frazzled. I have to add that the wait staff was very professional and helpful as well.
We had our entire wedding at Alpine Banquets. The gazebo was the perfect place for us to exchange our vows. It made it so easy for our guests to be in one place and to not travel between venues. There is a large grass area with beautiful pine trees where we captured incredible wedding pictures.
The banquet room was absolutely gorgeous. We used crystal centerpieces that are owned by Alpine Banquets and we got so many compliments on them. The dance floor was recently redone and was so beautiful. We upgraded to the Chiavari chairs and they really added the finishing touch.
I'll never forget when we went for a food tasting. All I can say is SUPERB!!!! I raved about the food to anyone that would listen. I couldn't wait for the reception to arrive so everyone could have the same experience that I had. We had chicken and rice soup, garden salad, rolls, Alpine breast of chicken with a white wine sauce, mostaccioli with homemade sausage, Swedish meatballs, mixed vegetables, the best mashed potatoes that I've had anywhere, and kolaches that are out of this world. Everything was as delicious the second time as it was the first time.
We had such a great experience that we can't wait to have another event there. We may just celebrate our anniversary every 5 years just so we can go back to Alpine Banquets. We got the opportunity to work with Helen and she is just the sweetest person, but know that if you work with anyone at Alpine Banquets that you are in good hands and will receive top notch service. We couldn't have picked a better venue. Thank you again to Helen and her staff for a day we will never forget!

Alpine Banquets has everything a bride would need to make her wedding beautiful. The staff is friendly, the customer service is excellent, and extremely accommodating.

The menu and excellent view are some of the reasons to have your wedding reception at the Alpine.
