In short: Basin Harbor is the perfect wedding destination, with an exceptional events team who delivered the wedding weekend of our dreams.

We celebrated our wedding at Basin Harbor over Memorial Day Weekend, and calling it perfect feels like an understatement. With our wedding falling on a holiday weekend, we asked our guests to stay on-site for three nights. Our goal was to ensure everyone felt like they were not just attending a wedding, but enjoying a true vacation experience. Anne, Lauren, and the entire events team immediately embraced our vision and helped us bring it to life.

The weekend kicked off with a movie night by the pool, followed by a round-robin pickleball tournament and a scenic sightseeing tour on Lake Champlain the next day. From there, we transitioned into a sunset cruise on The EScape, a flawless rehearsal dinner on The North Dock, and an incredible welcome party at the Burgee Bar. On our wedding day, both wedding parties were treated like royalty in our respective cottages, with lunch provided and every request seamlessly accommodated. The ceremony on the Lodge Lawn, overlooking the breathtaking Basin, was followed by dinner and dancing in Ardelia's. To end the night, we gathered around a campfire at the Red Mill for s'mores under the stars.

A weekend with so many moving parts could have felt overwhelming, but we always felt supported and cared for by Anne, Lauren, and the entire team. No request was too big—even a last-minute change of ceremony location and a spontaneous addition of Aperol Spritzes during cocktail hour were handled with ease. Beyond that, an unexpected family emergency arose the week before the wedding, and Anne and her team worked seamlessly with our wedding planner, allowing us to focus on what mattered most. Their compassion and professionalism during such a delicate time meant the world to us.

The planning process, spanning over a year, was equally seamless. Anne and her team maintained flawless communication, proactively checking in to keep us on track while expertly coordinating with external vendors, including our band and florist.

From the moment we discovered Basin Harbor online, we had a gut feeling it was special. That feeling was solidified the moment we set foot on the property and experienced its natural beauty, endless activities, and warm, dedicated staff. We are forever grateful to the entire Basin Harbor family—the Beaches, Anne, Lauren, the waitstaff, bartenders, chefs, boat crew, housekeepers, and everyone else behind the scenes—for creating such a magical experience.

We cannot wait to return to Basin Harbor, our favorite place, to continue making lifelong memories.

The entire team was first rate, quick to respond and their help made everything seamless. They offered up wonderful suggestions and literally everything for our wedding went off without a hitch. We did NOT need a wedding planner as they did everything for us! The setting is spectacular and our guests came from around the country and were all taken with the facilities and comfort of the whole experience. The food was delicious, the service was good at every turn, too, from wait staff, the bell staff, and the front desk team. We so appreciated the wedding planning team - what a great crew! We left by boat, too, from the dock at BHC! They accommodated our every wish.

I could not be happier with our choice to have our wedding at the Basin Harbor Club. From the very start, Lauren and Anne were so thoughtful in planning every detail, were timely in their responses, and supported us through every step! Planning a wedding is stress invoking, but knowing Lauren and Anne were handling the orchestration made us (and our families) feel at ease. Don't look any further on your venue search - Basin Harbor is it!
