Perfect Winter Venue

We got married here on December 1st and I’m so happy we chose this venue! When you choose Kilbuck you get to check venue, hotel, and caterer off your list as they have an incredible caterer (Costa’s) for you to work with and you can rent out the cabin for you and your bridal party to stay. We ended up renting the main lodge and the two side cabins so our parents could stay with us as well. We had them two nights so we were able to have an intimate rehearsal dinner the night before at the cabin which is just another thing I didn’t have to worry about! But wait there is more! You also get the amazing Branigan. Branigan is the event planner and was with me every step of the way in planning. She gave incredible advice and we talked thought everything during our meetings. She even came the day of after unexpected rain caused the plans for our ceremony to change. This would have stressed me out but Branigan figured out a plan and executed it flawlessly. I felt taken care of the entire process and cannot say enough amazing things about the staff. From the cleanup crew, planners, and other event staff everyone was absolutely a dream to work with. The space for your reception is also already to beautiful you don’t need many decorations to make it feel complete. I was actually able to set up early which was a huge help. Thank you Branigan, Mona, and the entire Kilbuck team for your help in making my wedding perfect! My family and I are already planning another stay there because we loved it so much!

Book it book it book it!

Such a BEAUTIFUL venue, it made our wedding day just PERFECT!!! I would recommend anyone and EVERYONE to get married here. There’s nothing better than getting to stay at one gorgeous location for your rehearsal dinner and wedding day/night. Trust me it saves A LOT of stress. I was able to set my decorations up days in advance, we had our hair and makeup come to us so we didn’t have to worry about being anywhere. Everything was just perfect. Your day will be unforgettable!!
