Sept. 2023 Wedding

I love Tannenbaum, it was recommended to me by one of my friends when I was looking for a venue to have my wedding. This place was gorgeous, it was the Tahoe feel that I was looking for without having to break the bank! The option to have your ceremony/reception inside or outside was amazing. The space was phenomenal for accommodating all the needs and vision I had for my special day! The staff was spectacular, Christy helped me every step of the way as soon as I booked the venue. She was very responsive with all my questions and in a timely manner. Brittany was my coordinator day off and she made the whole event run smooth and assisted with everything I needed on my special day! Lastly, I cannot say enough about how amazing the food was, all of my guests raved about the food and how they were able to accommodate dietary restrictions. I would choose Tannenbaum every time, they are truly the premier vendor for all your needs!

The Perfect Wedding Venue!

Our October 2025 wedding at The Tannenbaum Event Center was absolutely amazing, and the event could not have been more perfect. The Tannenbaum team is very experienced and knowledgeable, and the event ran smoothly with their guidance. The food at Tannenbaum is required to be catered by Roundabout Catering, and it is SO GOOD! The venue is stunning. The ceremony takes place on the back lawn with a gorgeous view of the mountains. The inside is so cozy with string lights and a beautiful stone fireplace. We had a little bit of a mishap with our table centerpieces, but the Tannenbaum staff took care of us and worked with us to find a solution. I highly recommend the Tannenbaum as a wedding venue if you are looking to get married in the Reno/Tahoe area.

Magical Wedding Weekend at Tannenbaum

I'm so thankful that I found Tannenbaum for my destination wedding in the Lake Tahoe / Reno area! The staff was kind, friendly, and professional. The venue is stunning. The rentals are high-quality and stylish. The food was phenomenal. A winter storm on the summer solstice required us to move the reception indoors day of, and the staff handled it easily, and I never felt stressed as the bride. Kyrsten was a dream to work with, and even planning from afar, they made the whole experience seamless and joyful for us.

Winter Wedding of Our Dreams

We had out wedding here in January 2024 and it was absolutely perfect! When we first visited this venue in our planning process, we were instantly drawn to the beauty of not only the venue itself, but of the view. Add the snow and it was our winter wonderland wedding of our dreams! Everything was set up beautifully and exactly what we had imagined, plus some! The staff, especially Christy, was so accommodating and it truly felt like they really cared about us and making sure we were happy and taken care of!

The Most Beautiful Day!

My husband and I had our wedding here this past July and it was such an incredible day! Everything went better than we had hoped for and we are so happy we picked this venue. First, the price is very reasonable for being essentially in Tahoe. The view SOLD us on the venue. The moment I saw the lawn space, I knew I wanted to get married here. One of my favorite moments from my wedding day was when my husband and I had a moment to admire the mountain backdrop during the sunset. It was spectacular. Everything was handled seamlessly and I truly didn’t have to worry about anything regarding the venue. Christy, the venue coordinator, is PHENOMENAL. I must have sent her a least a hundred emails and she answered each one quickly and with professionalism. I really appreciated this as my husband and I are not based in Tahoe/Reno and all of our communication was primarily through email or phone. Leading up to our wedding week, they were incredibly flexible and were able to work with us on last minute changes with guest count and layout. Our guests were also complimenting us on our food! We actually got to sit down and enjoy it which I appreciated. Get the potatoes au gratin! Also, all the servers and staff were so wonderful and attentive to us and our guests. We also loved the convenience of the bridal and groom suite, it was perfect for photos pre-ceremony. If you want a BEAUTIFUL wedding, wonderful staff, delicious food and a reasonably priced venue (and we all know wedding planning can be very $$) pick this venue! I am so happy we did.

Most Amazing Venue Ever!

To say Tannenbaum is the best venue ever, it would be an understatement. Christy was beyond fantastic to work with through our entire planning process. She was so helpful and just so wonderful to talk with (in person and via email). Brittney our day of coordinator was also amazing to work with. She was so sweet and answered all my questions. I cannot rave enough about the food. We have received numerous compliments about how the food was probably the best food our guests have ever had!!! The entire staff the day of our wedding were so professional and accommodating. Our bartenders were so much fun and made every drink perfectly. We can honestly say we would choose Tannenbaum again and again for our special day! If you’re looking for a venue with a breathtaking view and delicious food, then look no further, Tannenbaum is your place!!!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Pin-ups by Paris Events Pin-ups by Paris Events Wedding Planners

I have had the pleasure of working with Tannenbaum now countless times for the last 3 years, the staff is very friendly and professional. Julie has cultivated an instant romance and elegance once you step foot in the Reception room. Its customization to every clients dreams and this is why I have repeatedly brought my clients here to share their one special day. In the mountains of the sierras, and year round... Tannenbaum is above and beyond a 5 star for me. Thank you Tannenbaum, to many more years!

Julie and her wonderful team at The Tannenbaum will take your event to the next level. I have performed about 30 weddings at this venue, and one of my favorites. If you are looking to get out of Reno and have the Tahoe feel without the Tahoe pricing, this is by far the best value for your money. The ceremony and cocktail hour can take place on the beautiful lawn, and then the celebration can be brought inside this gorgeous venue. The Tannenbaum is definitely at the top of my list and I am sure that you will find it at the top of your list when searching for the perfect place to celebrate your love with your friends and family.
