About

Dancing Pines is among Truckee Tahoe's most unique outdoor wedding venues. Our secluded twenty-acre property sits on the banks of the Little Truckee River while our site’s simple and elegant design allows clients complete creative freedom.

Full-day site rentals allow clients to enjoy the property throughout the day and at their convenience. Our site accommodates up to 150 guests featuring a charming riverside ceremony site, large patio for cocktails, a relaxing fire pit lounge area and 7,000 square feet of lawn for dinner and dancing.

Weddings at Dancing Pines include more in the base price than any other facility in our area. While other venues may charge up to 25% in services charges and tax on the entire amount, our packages and a la carte offerings are all-inclusive. We offer a range of packages including private elopements, intimate ceremony gatherings, BYO packages and all-inclusive events.

Dancing Pines is currently booking next summer. Availability is listed on our website. Please email us at dancingpinesevents@gmail.com to schedule a tour.

Perfect Forest Wedding Venue in the Sierras!

We had our wedding at Dancing Pines on 9/3/22. Beyond the obvious natural beauty of the property, it is truly hard to overstate how incredible Liz and her team were; in particular her organization, professionalism, and day-of coordination were superb. My now-wife and I both cared a lot about the "flow" of the event (i.e., making sure guests were never confused about what was happening, where to go, or when their next food or drink was available). As both venue owner and wedding day coordinator, Liz is uniquely knowledgeable about the property and WOW did she help us bring our vision to life. She knew to ask questions about ceremony and reception aspects that we hadn't even considered and were so glad to be working with such a pro throughout the process since we hadn't hired a separate wedding planner. On top of all of the amazing professional service Liz and her team provided, she's just great to work with in general. As soon as we arrived on the property, it felt like we were talking to an old friend.

As soon as our guests started arriving they constantly kept coming up to us and asked, "How did you find this place..." in the best way possible. Dancing Pines really is a magical place and I have to pinch myself to think that it's now part of our story and are welcome back anytime. If you have the opportunity to plan your wedding here, DO IT. You will not regret it.

Liz was so on top of it! Perfect wedding venue

We just got married at Dancing Pines last weekend ('black tie in the woods') and it was everything we dreamed it would be and more. Liz was a joy to work with throughout the planning process (she's seriously so on top of it) and the team did a fantastic job day of. We couldn't have picked a prettier place to get married.

Beautiful Venue Beneath the Trees!

Liz is incredible. She is the owner of Dancing Pines and I cannot thank her enough for all that she did to help me plan my wedding. Dancing Pines is a gorgeous venue. The views are stunning and the Truckee River runs through the ceremony site. Our guests have not stopped raving about how beautiful our venue was. I am so happy we picked Dancing Pines. I highly recommend this venue if you are looking for a beautiful evening beneath the trees.

A beautiful location tucked away in the Sierras

Where to begin with Dancing Pines?! First, it's truly as beautiful and serene as the photos seem. Our guests were blown away by the beauty when they arrived. From day one of working with Liz she was professional, kind and enthusiastic about our day. She has industry experience and her professionalism showed throughout. We had to change our plans due to COVID about a month before our scheduled wedding day and Liz was a dream - committee to making sure what we wanted would happen despite crazy odds. I would highly recommend Dancing Pines to anyone - it doesn't get much more beautiful than this!

Private, rustic, elegant venue for a magical wedding in the woods

We hosted our fairy tale, glamorous, rustic wedding in the woods at Dancing Pines and it was a dream come true. The very private space means you never have to worry about the noise you are making or other people walking into your ceremony uninvited. Our venue and wedding planner worked seamlessly together so that we didn't have to lift a finger on wedding day. Best of all, the wedding venue provided the most amazing rustic backdrop for our boho wedding photos, and an amazing contract with out blingy glamour decorations. Absolutely a dream come true.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
