Great time

Attended a wedding at sugarhouse over the weekend and was BLOWN AWAY. The food was better than what ive had at restaurants let alone wedding venues! The views were phenomenal and dancing the night away under the stars was something ill always remember. My partner and I already decided this is where we will be having our wedding.

Amazing wedding

Went on a tour, and the property was spacious and BEAUTIFUL. The fact that all of it was mine on my wedding day blew my mind. It’s like renting out an estate! The owner and his staff were so friendly and willing to customize everything to suit me. I’m so excited for my wedding to be here. It’s a dream!

Unforgettable experience!

I recently went to a friends wedding here and it was amazing! Such a beautiful and unique place they have cultivated! Views, food, and location were breathtaking. After an amazing night of dancing and celebration, I left with a bottle of maple syrup they make on the property. I cant wait until the next event there!

Elegant & Welcoming!

Douglas and his wife welcomed us with bright smiles the moment we walked in! Seeing how they took the time to learn about my fiance and I's special day was so reassuring. I felt comfortable speaking with them and explaining our budget. They provided us with a beautiful tour of their property, as well. I highly recommend Sugarhouse for your wedding!

Our romantic, rustic wedding at the SUGARHOUSE

Of course, here's an updated version of the review:

My husband and I had our wedding at SugarHouse on June 3, 2023, and we couldn't have been happier with how everything turned out. The venue provided special lighting that added to the romantic and rustic atmosphere, and all the food was prepared right on the premises by Master Chef Douglas Mace.

Not only was the food absolutely delicious, but SugarHouse also provided all the drinks for the evening, which made the planning process much easier for us. We didn't have to worry about finding a separate bar service or buying our own alcohol.

In addition to the food and drinks, SugarHouse provided everything we needed for the ceremony and reception, including chairs, chair covers, linens, and a dance floor. The bride and groom suites were also a wonderful touch, with full-length mirrors, hair and makeup areas, and a restroom.

The staff at SugarHouse were amazing, too. They were incredibly responsive and friendly, and made sure everything ran smoothly on our wedding day. We didn't have to worry about a thing! Although we had to find our own DJ and photographer, SugarHouse had referrals for all the extras we needed.

Overall, we highly recommend SugarHouse as a wedding venue. From the special lighting to the delicious food and drinks, everything was perfect. We're so grateful for the wonderful memories we made there on our special day.

Sending my greatest recommendation for Sugarhouse! My husband and I dreamed of a small group, desert wedding, with delicious food..

The chef TRULY made our dream come true, everything from a well-paired meat and cheese board to celebratory Lobster rolls… The presentation was gorgeous and the flavors surreal, exactly what we needed in the middle of the sand dunes! Looking forward to our next experience with the best!!

On Site get together

What a gorgeous location! The site we originally planned to use had a last minute incident and SugarHouse was able to accommodate our get together and really worked with us to make it a special event. We had 40 people for a dinner party and their onsite Chef was spectacular, listened to our wants, and provided a menu that was delicious - the cheesecake was to die for!

Really can’t say enough about how they went above and beyond with such little notice, we’ll be back for our next event.

Sugarhouse

The venue is gorgeous! A great place to get married. We had our wedding in the Fall and it was beautiful with the foliage. Food was top notch, and the favors were so cute; the homemade maple syrup was such a nice touch. Definitely a special place.

Plenty of DIY opportunities! Highly recommend having a coordinator during the process and day off.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
