Amazing Wedding and Experience

We recently had our wedding at The Ponds at Bolton Valley, and we cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience with Bolton and Heather. From the very beginning, she was professional, organized, and incredibly kind, making the entire planning process easy and stress-free.

With our small wedding of just 22 guests—and planning everything from out of state without seeing anything in person until the rehearsal and wedding day—we wanted the day to feel intimate and personal. Heather ensured every detail was thoughtfully executed. She truly listened to our vision and went above and beyond to bring it to life, from coordinating with vendors to ensuring the day flowed perfectly.

On the wedding day, Heather handled everything flawlessly. We were able to fully enjoy our celebration without worrying about a thing! Her expertise made all the difference, and we are beyond grateful for her dedication and hard work.

Not to mention, the food was absolutely incredible! The chicken was the best I’ve ever had, and our guests raved about the salmon and steak as well. The food was easily an 11/10—hands down, and the drinks were delicious! We couldn’t have been happier.

If you're planning a wedding at The Ponds at Bolton Valley, we highly recommend working with Heather. She made our day absolutely perfect, and we will forever be thankful!

Most beautiful setting

Initially, there were challenges, mostly in event planning staff, due to Covid but in the end, Bekah did a wonderful job! We had an offsite Church wedding but the Ponds was the perfect setting for an end of summer reception. The food was delicious and we could not have been happier with all of our vendors: Alison of Floral Artistry, Christian Arthur Photography, Bridal Services by Laela, Party Factor Band, quartet from Vermont Symphony, Top Hat Entertainment for the mirror photo booth and Kat of Premier Coach Bus Co. Kudos, kudos, kudos!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
