Thank You so Much- a great time was had by all.

I just want to say thank you to Dan and all the staff at East Mountain Inn. They went all out to ensure my daughter's wedding met her expectations.
Long story short, we had contracted with another venue over a year in advance. Due to a number of different issues that arose, we (the families) all felt a change in venue was needed. I spoke with Dan and explained the situation. Despite having less than an 8 week window to make all the arrangements, he assured me they could pull it off. We signed the contract and are so happy we did.
Dan met with my wife and daughter a few times over the next few weeks and straightened out all the details. (decorations/ menu/ etc.)
Out of town quests were able to easily secure rooms, something the previously chosen hotel had difficulty with. (They outsourced their reservations to a call center. This caused great confusion. At times quests were told they had no record of a wedding that weekend).
On the day of the wedding, Dan and the staff were professional, polite and worked very hard to make sure my daughter's special day went according to plan. The food was hot, fresh and very good. Everyone had a great time and raved about what a great job the staff did, especially knowing the time constraints we were under.
I would highly recommend the East Mountain Inn to anyone seeking a venue for this type of occasion.
To Dan and all the staff; I cannot thank you all enough.

Kudos to Daniel and The Holiday Inn Wilkes Barre East Mountain

I am just writing to let you know that you did a fabulous job with Jade and Korey's wedding on June 9, 2024. We couldn't have asked for anything better. You were so helpful and accommodating throughout the entire planning until the end of the reception.
The chef did an awesome job with the food preparations. Many of the guests commented on how delicious the food was. Paul and I totally agreed.
As for the servers and clean up employees did a great job as well. They were friendly and polite.
We couldn't have asked for anything better for Jade and Korey's wedding. We rated employees and Holiday Inn facilities at a 10.
Hope our path crosses again.
Nancy & Paul O.

Planned my wedding in 2 months!

Bri and the whole staff at Holiday Inn- East Mountain were very flexible and helpful! I started my wedding planning 2 months before I was looking to have it and I loved the one stop shop that came with the venue. They had center pieces, table numbers, cake knife and server, table linens... EVERYTHING! Not to mention the beautiful outdoor ceremony/cocktail hour area and amazing food/drinks which was also included! I could not have pulled this wedding off at any other venue!

Mrs. Cokely

I had my wedding there on June 22, 2019. It was absolutely perfect. The venue was extremely clean amd organized. The food was delicious. All of the staff was very happy, helpful, courteous, and very well mannered. Every member of the staff at the hotel came and congratulated my husband and I which was super nice.
Our wedding consultant Bri. Kern was absolutely amazing. There are not enough words to describe this girl. Truly amazing and attentive. She has a glowing personality. Everyone of our guests thought she was amazing. She honestly made our wedding perfect absolutely perfect!! If we had a question for her she would have an answer for us in no time at all. She would definitely get way higger than a 5 star rating from us!!!!

Beautiful venue

This venue was absolutely amazing. Mandy and Shirley were personable, professional and easy to work with. Mandy was prompt in her email responses and very knowledgeable as to how to make our day special for us and our guests. They set everything up for us that day and it looked better than I even envisioned. The food was delicious and our guests loved having everything in the same location. I highly recommend this venue!
