The Ridges Resort on Lake Chatuge was a lovely venue for our son's Rehearsal dinner. The Red Banks Room was chosen for the dinner, and was the perfect spot for our guests to relax and enjoy a meal together before the wedding the following day. The event coordinator was superb to work with before and during the dinner. Her attention to details and her desire to meet our requests for the event went above and beyond what we expected. The food was delicious, the room set up was perfect, and the serving staff were all gracious and helpful to meet our every need.

Best day/ weekend ever!
I absolutely cannot say enough good things about the Ridges Resort. From the first time we viewed the space and meeting with Andrea Allen, we knew this is where we wanted to spend our special weekend. The grounds are beautiful, with so much for the guests to do, and the rooms/ venue spaces are newly updated and so nice.
Andrea (Andy) was a huge reason why we chose The Ridges. For a year and a half, she assisted us with everything, never letting a question go unanswered. When it was finally time for our special day, Andy made sure everything went absolutely perfect! She even hurt her foot before the ceremony, but pushed through until everything was good at our reception like an absolute boss. She was amazing and will make sure your day is perfect!
The rest of the Ridges Resort staff was also incredible. They made sure my now husband and I, as well as our families, were happy and having a great time all weekend. The staff that assisted with the rehearsal dinner and ceremony were also wonderful- they always made sure Kyle and I had drinks in our hand, ate enough, and even accommodated our special requests.
Again, I cannot say enough good things about The Ridges Resort on Lake Chatuge- this is definitely the place to have your destination wedding!

It is such a pleasure to work with The Ridges Resort! They are easy to work with and make sure all is in order and are ready for each wedding. They are ready to meet a couple's needs as well as other vendors working the wedding. I look forward to working with them more!
The Ridges Resort is an excellent place to have your wedding ceremony and reception. We are very selective as to which companies or vendors we put our referral behind and we are very comfortable saying you will be treated to an experience with this facility. The staff, the setting is amazing. If you are looking for something scenic and you want to remain near atlanta, check out The Ridges Resort.
