Amazing wedding!

We had the most amazing day of our lives - largely in part due to the staff. Everyone present at the venue at some point, ie managers Matt, Christy and the staff were so kind, welcoming and accommodating. They were relaxed and made it easy for me to trust them with our big day! Even the ski lift men were over-the-top kind, patient and funny with our mostly non-skiing crew. We couldn't have asked for anyone better to be there for our day! It made me happy to have a wedding at place where we are sharing our money with kind people! Everyone raved about their meals with at least 20 people going out of their way to tell us it was the best wedding meal they ever had. All salad plates were removed and all 164 dinners were served timely (we sat at 6 and were dancing by 7:30)! The staff brought me a backup bottle of champagne upstairs about 30 seconds after asking for it - I was amazed by the speed! haha. Everything was packaged beautifully for us as well and the to-go meals were a beautiful touch at the end of the night. Everything went off without a glitch and it truly felt like a fairy tale!

Awesome Venue and Atmosphere at a Great Value!

The atmosphere was perfect for our daughter's very special day. We loved the venue, both inside and out. All of our guests were able to take advantage of the beautiful views on a great summer night. We felt that the cost of the wedding was a well worth the experience. The quality of the food was tremendous as they served around 200 filets to perfection. We were very pleasantly surprised as that is not an easy task. Our contact Jolene guided us so well and the communication was perfect all the up to and throughout the ceremony. The staff was very friendly and fun. It wasn't stuffy like some venues. It was very loose and professional at the same time. I would highly recommend Holiday Valley for a wedding. We were very pleased.

Amazing experience at Yodeler Lodge Holiday Valley!

We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect wedding day at Holiday Valley! The setting was absolutely perfect. From the beautiful mountain views to the warm and welcoming atmosphere, every detail was picture-perfect. Jolene and her staff went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly, and their professionalism and kindness made the planning process and day of so much easier. Our guests couldn’t stop talking about the gorgeous venue, the delicious food, and how seamless everything felt. Both myself and a handful of guests mentioned how the filet was one of the best they had ever had! Holiday Valley gave us not just a stunning location, but memories we will cherish for a lifetime. We’re so grateful for the incredible friendly team who made our day unforgettable!

Holiday Valley Wedding Review

Jolene went above and beyond to make our dream wedding a reality. Her exceptional coordination and organization ensured that our day went off without a hitch. She scheduled multiple planning meetings with us, patiently answered our countless emails and questions, and even gave us several tours of the venue so we could envision every detail ahead of time.

The entire Holiday Valley staff was equally outstanding—from the service staff and setup crew to the chair lift operators. Everyone was kind, professional, and attentive. The venue itself was absolutely stunning, and we’ve received so many compliments from our guests about how beautiful and seamless the day was.

We can’t thank Jolene and the Holiday Valley team enough for helping us create such an unforgettable celebration!

Wedding Experience at Holiday Valley

We got married at Holiday Valley and had the best experience! Kristy was our wedding planner, and she was absolutely amazing. She was so helpful, organized, and easy to work with throughout the entire planning process. The venue was beautiful, the staff was incredible, and everything ran so smoothly on our big day. Our guests are still talking about the mashed potato bar, it was a huge hit! We could not have asked for a more perfect wedding weekend.

We had an absolute blast hosting our wedding at Holiday Valley. The staff was incredibly communicative and professional. My venue coordinator (Kristy) went above and beyond with answering my never-ending questions not only with patience but also kindness and compassion. Everything went off without a hitch and I would have my wedding here ten times over again!
