Absolutely Magical !!

From the very beginning, we always knew that we wanted to get married in Vermont. After visiting Mountain Top Resort, we instantly knew that it was the place. From the breathtaking views of the mountains to the all-on-property experience with amazing food options, Mountain Top was the hands-down best choice!

Since our first introduction to Khele and the whole Mountain Top staff, they provided a truly magical experience. To say that we were blessed and could not have done it without Miranda and Zoey (our coordinators) would be a complete understatement. Throughout the whole process, it was extremely comforting and reassuring to know that Miranda and Zoey were just a phone call or email away. They were both extremely helpful, professional, and knowledgeable. From the start they were there to answer our many questions that arise from planning a winter destination wedding, provide guidance on different options, kept us on track for all our important deadlines, brought all our visions to reality on our special day, and so much more than we could list.

As many people would say, we are huge “foodies”. When asked about weddings, most people would say the thing they remembered most was whether the food was good. In the case of Mountain Top (in addition to the all-on-property experience and breathtaking mountain view mentioned before), the food is certainly memorable. Whether it was the rehearsal dinner, hors d’oeuvres at cocktail hour, meals at the reception, or late-night snacks, every item of food was phenomenal. Words just simply could not do justice to describe how incredible the food tasted. Our friends and family are still ranting and raving about the food!

Gayle and her staff at Meadow’s Edge Floral are incredible and would whole-heartedly recommend them for your floral / décor. We could not thank them enough for all the décor (greenery / bouquets / boutonnieres / ice luminaries / table centerpieces and everything in between). Every detail from rehearsal dinner to the reception was truly spectacular and transformed the spaces into something more than we could have ever imagined! All the small special touches made it that much more enchanting.


Mountain Top was everything a couple could wish for in a wedding venue and more. We will continue to recommend it to family / friends and plan to visit again soon!

Thank you all from the bottom of our hearts for making our dream wedding a reality!

Literal perfection

Where do I begin? We got married at Mountain Top Inn & Resort on 7/16/2022 and it was truly the best day of our lives. But lets back up- we booked the day TWO YEARS prior and despite being two years out- we were immediately connected to a planner. Our planner Chelsea was with us from day one and was always so communicative, patient and supportive. One of our favorite things about getting married at Mountain Top was having a excuse to visit the beautiful place numerous times over the planning process. We've stayed in the Inn, the cabins and houses on the property- all of which are clean, comfortable and beautiful! The wedding weekend was truly a dream- we had over 100 guests staying on property and everyone had the time of their lives. The rehearsal dinner down at the lake was picturesque, well run and food was delicious. The photo-ops are gorgeous and the vibes are casual yet elevated - a chic Vermont summer camp dream! Saturday, our wedding day was even better. Everything was setup exactly as discussed, everything ran on time thanks to our incredible day-of coordinator Rachel, the food was amazing. I could go on and on! Truly not one thing went wrong- all expectations were exceeded and now we get to have Mountain Top as our special place forever. Our guests can not stop saying that it was the best wedding they've ever been to. The VIEWS cannot be beat and the way MTI runs a event is the perfect mix of elegant, casual and comfortable. 11/10 would recommend! Thank you Chelsea, Rachel, Jay (beverage manager) and all the other INCREDIBLY kind MTI staff that made our weekend so special.

Chelsea was an absolute pleasure to work with. We had a FOUR day wedding weekend and she was able to handle it all calmly and professionally, especially with all of the special requests we had. Her responsiveness and help throughout the planning process was appreciated by both the bride and grooms sides as there were a lot of hands in the planning pot. We live 5 hours from the venue so her ability to help coordinate from afar was a must. Everyone at The Mountain Top Inn welcomed us and our guests and made sure everyone was taken care of from check in to check out. I would highly recommend this venue to anyone looking to have a relaxing getaway for their big day or weekend. Our guests can't stop talking about how beautiful it all was - not just the amazing view, but the overall weekend. We have Chelsea to thank for making it all possible.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Easily, the Mountain Top Inn is among the best wedding venues, if not, THE best wedding venue in Vermont. The food and view of the Chittenden reservoir is always second to none and the staff is friendly and courteous. I highly recommend Mountain Top Inn for your wedding, or any other function... you will be glad you did!

Beautiful views of the countryside and the new barn is a great addition. I love to bring my cakes to the Mountain Top and be part of the action there.

I first photographed a wedding at The Mountaintop Inn & Resort in July of 2004. Not only is the location breathtaking, but the staff went out of their way to make sure the guests and vendors had whatever they needed. I was extremely impressed with the ease in which the days events flowed and how pleasant it was to be working at this venue. The guests were able to be there for the weekend and many of them commented to me how fabulous the resort was and how relaxed they were able to feel at this wedding. I didn't want the night to end! This has been the case consistently over the years and the Mountain Top remains one of my favorite places to photograph weddings. Very highly recommended!
