A Perfect Day

My husband and I got married at Talking Stick Golf Club this past March 2020. We highly recommend this venue for anyone looking for an unbelievable view and a staff who goes above and beyond to make your wedding day perfect. Stefanie, the event coordinator at Talking Stick was amazing. We did not have a personal wedding coordinator but it felt like we did with everything that Stefanie did for us. She met with us multiple times during the planning process to go over details, any concerns that I had, she set up a mock table and hosted us for a perfect food tasting. The venue allowed us to drop off all of our wedding decor the day before the wedding and at the end of the night the staff members broke everything down and placed it back in a room so we were able to pick it up the day after the wedding, which was extremely helpful. The course also provided us with multiple golf carts right after the ceremony so the bridal party, family members and photographer could find the perfect spots for pictures after the ceremony. Also, the food was incredible and is still brought up to us. The staff members at Talking Stick were so great to us and like I said before, we highly recommend.

I honestly can't say enough great things about this venue! We had the wedding of our dreams here! We wanted something that felt casual and classy, like a backyard party with our closest family and friends, and something in the desert to show off where we have made our home. We got all of this and more at Talking Stick Golf Club! They had indoor and outdoor options, an awesome bar set up, plenty of room for all our guests, and amazing service.

I met with Mark several times during the 7 months we were planning our wedding, and each time he was so sincere in making sure we were happy with what they had to offer for our day. Mark was very flexible when I asked if we could hold our ceremony in a different location from where they normally take place, and he was flexible when we wanted different food options from what they have to offer. They had awesome hor d'oeuvres and our guests had a GREAT time at the open bar. They let us bring our bags boards and they even had a huge fire pit in the front where they allowed us to set up a s'mores bar! We were also able to take a golf cart out around the course with our photographer so we could get our photos taken out in the desert and in front of the beautiful mountains that are the backdrop to the course.

They have two rooms that were perfect for us to get ready in, separate enough so we didn't see each other until it was time. One of the best parts about this place is the fact that it's small and intimate, and they only host one event at a time so we were the only wedding party there that day. There were golfers still around the course, but I barely noticed them and we had the majority of the property to ourselves which made it feel like our own private venue. It was perfect! To top if off, at the end of the night, we headed over to the casino and Mark personally drove us over there! Thank you so much to Mark and his team....way way above our expectations! We're still dreaming about our wedding day!

My husband and I couldn't have been more pleased with the support and service we received through the entire wedding planning process. Everything was organized and easy for us and our guests on the big day. Everyone raved about the food and you can't beat the beautiful venue. We highly recommend Talking Stick Golf Club for any group function.
thanks Dru, Mark, Chef and team.
