Perfect Fall Wedding!

We had the most beautiful wedding weekend at the Loralei Inn in November of 2025! The venue is absolutely stunning, with 360 degree mountain views. All our guests raved about how beautiful the setting was. I wanted a fall wedding in the mountains and they more than delivered everything I was hoping for!
Lora and her team planned our event for us, which was a great help. They found the vendors and initiated contact between them. I just shared the vision and they helped it come to life!
We were able to do the rehearsal dinner at the Loralei Inn as well, and had people stay the entire weekend on site which was a huge help. The bridesmaids stayed overnight and got ready on site in the bridal suite. There is plenty of parking on site. Every detail was taken care of. Would 1000% recommend the Loralei Inn for anyone in the area looking for an amazing wedding venue run by down to earth people! :)

Hidden Gem

The Loralei Inn was a true gem for our wedding day. From the moment we first reached out, Lora and her team were incredibly professional, fast, and responsive in all of our communication. Their attention to detail and dedication to ensuring our day was perfect was unparalleled. They truly went above and beyond, adopting us as family and guiding us through every step of the day-to-day wedding planning process. Our wedding was flawless thanks to their exceptional service and expertise. The Loralei Inn is a top-notch venue with an excellent value, and we cannot recommend them highly enough.

Say yes to the venue!

I’m not sure where to start with my review on the Loralei Inn. My new husband & I couldn’t be more thankful & blessed to have hosted our wedding here in June of 2024. The care and professional you’ll experience here is unlike any other wedding venue. Lora (owner, coordinator, planner) is hands down the best woman in the world & I couldn’t have pulled off a more amazing wedding without her. From the first day I toured this venue & met Lora, it was a match made in Heaven. The venue itself is one right out of a mountain fairytale. You have 360 degree views of the mountains at every turn. The landscaping & greenery is the perfect focal point for any occasion. The rooms are immaculate for getting ready in & staying the weekend in! You will never need or want for anything if you host your wedding here. Her vendors are also amazing- florist, catering, rentals, bartenders, etc. Lora has become a second mama bear, a best friend, and forever family.

Elegant venue, great people

What can I say - this venue was absolutely perfect for our wedding! Not only is the house and property just absolutely stunning on its own along with beautiful mountain views, we truly felt like we became part of the family! Lora was our mama for the wedding process - she had only our best interest at heart and worked incredibly hard to make sure we had the best possible day. One of the huge advantages of this venue is the ability to rent out the house for days! My family was able to stay on site for the whole weekend, which specifically made my parents, grandma, and 8-month pregnant sister so happy! Everyone raved about how beautiful the venue/wedding was!

Rainy day wedding bliss

What a beautiful place with fantastic mountain views. I couldn't have asked for a more perfect venue. The owner and staff are wonderful. Even though the weather didn't cooperate, we enjoyed the covered portico for for the rain backup where we still had the outdoor feel with beautiful mountain views behind us.

Perfect!!!

From the first time I pulled up the driveway in front of this gorgeous venue I knew it was a spot for me and my husband to be. Moments later when we met and spent time with Lora we knew for sure that she totally understood our vision of our wedding. Lora took care of all the arrangements for our floral photography everything including food I cannot recommend her highly enough.
