Ancala Country Club was the most perfect wedding location! We had the most wonderful experience with the staff. Amy the wedding coordinator was AMAZING, she was so kind and helped with the execution of the day! She helped bring our vision to life and worked with our budget to make it a magical day! Every phone call and email was promptly responded to. The scenery was breathtaking! There were so many beautiful places on the golf course to capture the most breathtaking pictures! The ceremony location had camelback mountain as our backdrop! We have only kind and wonderful things to say about Ancala and would highly recommend choosing Ancala as your wedding venue, I promise you won't be disappointed!

Our Magical Day!
Ancala is a beautiful, tucked away venue in Scottsdale with a picturesque view of McDowell Mountains facing North East and Camelback/ Central Mountain Range facing Southwest. The venue offers a variety of ceremonial and reception environments. What we liked most...was how we can be on the beautiful golf course overlooking the mountains and sunset for ceremony, enjoy a quant, romantic cocktail area with Thomas Edison lights and have the ballroom wedding all within in steps of each other. The service is wonderful; Amy McKee takes pride in her service in organizing your perfect moments and helps customize a package that suits you best (which I can not say for several other venues). The appetizers and entrée selections are vast and excellent! Your guests will think it's just beautiful. Very quiet as well.

Working with Amy at the Ancala Country Club was such a joy! She made the event go so smooth that it made our job so easy. She was a pleasure to work with and I will most certainly be recommending her and the Ancala Country Club to my brides and grooms looking for a beautiful venue in Scottsdale.
