Dream Wedding at Gunstock

We had our absolute dream wedding at Gunstock Mountain Resort in Gilford, NH. Gunstock has the perfect rustic setting my husband and I were seeking and were extremely flexible with ceremony location, so we were able to have the ceremony in a place that has always had a special place in my heart. Throughout the planning process Gretchen was extremely responsive and empowered us to have a ceremony that we feel was uniquely us. She was always a calming reassuring voice; we would not have had our perfect day without her guidance. The food was absolutely fantastic and we had our perfect wedding within our budget thanks to Gunstock. Highly recommend!

Spectacular Fall Wedding!

Gunstock provided a spectacular venue for our daughter's fall wedding. The views for pictures at the top of the mountain were breath taking and the chair lift ride up with the wedding party was a blast! The ceremony at the pond with the fall foliage was also beautiful. You'll find Gretchen, the event coordinator to be responsive, professional and invaluable. All the staff were friendly and very accommodating. The lodge offers plenty of room for a large wedding with warm lighting and a grand fire place. The food was absolutely delicious from rehearsal dinner to cocktail hour to the reception dinner and the bar staff accommodated stocking the bar with beverages of our choice. Family and friends who traveled from CT. stayed at local Airbnb's and the Gunstock camp ground which offered close and affordable options. So grateful the kids chose Gunstock for their wedding celebration. It was truly the experience I hoped it would be for my daughter and her new husband.
