    Dream Day!!

    Solitude and Kate’s team were incredibly gracious as we pulled together our "Plan B" wedding in less than five weeks. They were there for us as we waffled between different contingencies due to COVID. We enjoyed all of our interactions with them and their staff were both professional and discrete on the day. Kate is a total class act of an events manager. Any bride and groom would be lucky to work with her.

    Wedding of our dreams!

    We can't imagine a better wedding venue. The Solitude team helped us create the wedding of our dreams! We got married on the Inn Lawn this September, with reception inside at the Last Chance Lodge. Throughout the planning process, Julianna and Kate were incredible to work with. They helped us incorporate our own traditions into the Solitude space--we truly felt the wedding was exactly what we hoped for. (They even were willing to make a cake using our recipe!). They are very organized and helped us stay on track with all the detail. They also were wonderful at communicating with our other vendors to make sure everyone was on the same page.

    All of the staff at Solitude were kind, down-to-earth, and happy to help us and our guests with anything we needed. For many of our guests, Solitude was their first introduction to Utah, and they loved it--several plan to come back for vacation! It's a great venue for people of all ages and interests. Great for kids--tons of space to run around, great pool. Great for outdoorsy guests with lots of hikes and biking nearby. And, also great for our less-outdoorsy guests--they loved checking out mountain views from the chairlift or relaxing on the patios!

    We had the best day of our lives--couldn't have hoped for a better celebration! If you want a relaxed, fun, beautiful, and personal wedding--we recommend this venue 100%!

    If you want an amazing wedding get married here

    WOW!
    We don't have enough great things to say about Solitude. We got married in the fall and the scenery was absolutely gorgeous. Most special of all, working with the entire team at Solitude was so amazing. Many wedding venues leave their couples to figure things out on their own but Solitude was with us every step of the way. Julianna was so responsive, kind, and fun to work with! She met with us so many times during the year and had a very detailed map, overview, and price breakdown that would get updated each time we met. She genuinely wanted us to have the best day - which we did. Everything was so magical - from the ceremony overlooking the mountains, to the reception, to the after party at the thirsty squirrel bar. Thank you so much for everything!

    Perfect Mountain Wedding

    Solitude was the perfect place for a summer wedding! I got married at Last Chance Lodge in the end of July and the weather was perfect! Most of our guests came from out of town and stayed at Solitude all weekend, which really gave my husband and I time to connect with everyone. Our day of coordination, Kate, really helped us with planning along the way. She was also available to answer questions and made sure that the whole day was organized and ran smoothly. Our wedding planning ended up being a breeze, largely due to Kate and the fact that Solitude handled all food, drinks, tables, dishes, and linens. That only left us with needing to book a florist, photographer and DJ.

    Perfect and Magical

    We had a perfect wedding at Solitude. Kate was amazing to work with during our organizing and planning. The staff gave us the most incredible service through our entire evening. We couldn't have been more happy, nor could they have done anything any better. We would go to Solitude again without hesitation.

    Perfect wedding venue!

    Solitude was a gorgeous wedding venue! We got married at the end of September and the scenery was spectacular. We worked with Julianna and she was amazing! She was very friendly and knowledgeable. A lot goes in to planning a wedding, and Julianna had everything covered. She responded quickly to my emails, and met us for several meetings. Solitude catered all of our meals and the food was phenomenal. We got so many compliments from guests on how good the food was! Solitude also has their own chairs and linens/dinnerware, so we didn’t have to provide any of it. Everything was so easy and convenient! We were able to get a room block at The Inn, have our rehearsal and dinner, host a welcome dessert and have our wedding ceremony, cocktail hour, reception and after party at Solitude! We wouldn’t have done it anywhere else! Their prices were also more reasonable, compared to other local ski resorts. Solitude was perfect and exactly what we wanted for our mountain wedding!

    I had my wedding at Solitude on September 21. It was amazing! Julianna and Kate were so awesome to work with. I have zero complaints about my wedding. It was exactly how we envisioned it. I will always recommend solitude to anyone.

    If you want the wedding of your dreams, choose Solitude! I could not have imagined a more BEAUTIFUL venue. We had our ceremony and reception at the Moonbeam Lodge. Our ceremony was outside on the lawn and reception indoor/outdoor. The venue also includes an upper patio where you can have an extra bar area with beautiful lighting. Our guests loved it!
    I would recommend Solitude to everyone for their wedding venue!

    BEST DECISION YOU WILL EVER MAKE!!! Seriously, our family & friends are STILL raving about how unique & amazing our wedding was! Kate & Julianna along with Solitude's staff, were a HUGE part as to why! I was a particular bride & Kate was a GOD SENT for me. She was so responsive & met with me several times before the wedding. If I hadn't thought of something, she did! She was so organized by making sure every detail was accounted for. Julianna was more involved the weekend of my wedding & was so helpful as well! Both the girls were there on my wedding day, talking with my vendors, checking in on me, moving things.. They were unreal. We chose to have our ceremony up the chairlift & our reception at Moonbeam Lodge this August & it was breathtaking! If you love outdoors/the mountains, choose the upper ceremony area!!! Our guests had the most unique experience taking the chairlift up to our ceremony & being seated in the middle of the mountains. Our photos turned out unlike any other ceremony you've ever seen. I cannot say enough about how incredible our wedding was & I would choose Solitude over & over again!!

    Solitude hosted the wedding of my dreams, it seriously could not have been more perfect. First of all - it's so beautiful there! Second of all - they know their stuff! Every staff member I interacted with was professional, friendly, and helpful. It's not cheap, but we truly felt it was worth every penny: the logistics were seamless, the food/drink/staff were great, and we didn't have to worry about anything. The majority of our guests were traveling from out of state, and everyone loved being in the mountains, staying in the Village and getting to enjoy the beautiful nature of the Wasatch.
    Last thing - hugest shout out to Kate Macconi, wedding planner extraordinaire! She is so kind, diligent, responsive, organized, and really just amazing at her job. Thank you Kate, we will remember our flawless wedding for the rest of our lives :)

    We worked with Kate Macconi to plan our wedding and she was just amazing! My husband lives in LA and I am mostly out on business trips, however, Kate was very flexible with our schedule and helped us stay on top of our tasks. Having a traditional Hindu Ceremony, Kate had to work with Solitude on accommodating a lot of new rituals, and everything worked smoothly. She helped connect us with Andrew, the F&B director who then worked with me and his team on recreating my mom's Indian recipes. We received great support and coordination from everyone at the Resort. The views were breathtaking and all our guests had a wonderful time both during and outside of the wedding.

    I had my wedding at Solitude the last weekend of August 2017 and it was absolutely amazing. Kate, my wedding coordinator, was a lifesaver. Her services are included with the price of the venue rental and it was simply priceless. For almost one year she kept in constant email contact with me and went over what I needed to prepare or do to make sure the big day was a major success (reminded me about vendors, flowers, events, etc... she thought of everything). The day of the wedding she was there with me from morning to evening and made sure everyone had their flowers, were in the right place/time, and that we were on schedule. I can't thank her enough.

    The staff at Solitude were also extremely friendly and pleasant. My guests kept raving to me about how kind everyone was at Solitude--they made all of my out-of-towners feel right at home.

    About 80% of my wedding guests came from out of town, and arriving at Solitude was a jaw dropper for them. They LOVED the mountain setting and the Solitude village and everyone made a great vacation out of it. The day after our wedding we did a hike at Lake Solitude and so many people were absolutely wowed by the views.

    Solitude set up all the tables and linens and did an absolutely fantastic job. For food you have to use Solitude as a vendor, but this actually made the whole process more convenient and easy. My guests all raved about the food (we had steak and salmon) and the prices are comparatively affordable.

    I also planned the wedding from out of town and it was a smashing success. Solitude went above and beyond my expectations. They are extremely professional and respectful and they know what they're doing.

    If you want an absolutely stunning wedding in the mountains surrounded by lush, green forests--then Solitude is it. I can't rave about this place enough. Thank you Solitude for giving me a perfect, perfect wedding.

    Kate is amazing and will make sure that your wedding is everything you want it to be! She was extremely helpful and did everything that she said she would. I was extremely pleased with all the staff at solitude but Kate Macconi went above and beyond!

    The reviews are spot on! We got married up at Solitude July 22nd, 2017 and everything was perfect. We worked with both Kate and Juliana throughout the planning and event process. Both of those ladies do their job 110%. We loved working with them and have nothing but praise for their incredible work ethic. Same with Patrick who was the Inn manager. Our wedding guests had so much fun enjoying the resort for the week from s’mores to ski lift rides. We had many compliments on the food from the rehearsal dinner at the Honeycomb Grill to the cocktail hour appetizers and dinner entrees. Seriously, everything was positively incredible and I cannot thank them enough for doing such a fabulous job!

    Though my fiancé and I were not able to have our wedding here, we were very impressed with Kate Macconi, the wedding planner there. We are originally from Illinois and had an opportunity to visit this venue on one of our visits to Utah to snowboard. Kate was so responsive and met with us right away. She gave a wonderful tour of all the venue options at Solitude and was very flexible with our needs. I would highly recommend working with her! Thank you Kate!!

    We did our cocktail hour and ceremony on the Inn Lawn, which was covered in daisies and other wildflowers on the day of our wedding!
    We had our wedding reception at Last Chance Mining Camp at Solitude. It has a rustic feel with wooden rafters and tables. There's also a patio with a great view of the mountain and the village.
    Solitude catered all of our food, and the food and beverage director was very flexible with what we wanted. He ended up mostly going off menu for our dinner and everything was delicious!
    Kate, Solitude's wedding coordinator, was SO great to work with! She's very responsive, very friendly, and overall a pleasure to work with. I'm so glad we had our wedding up here! Highly recommend!

    We absolutely loved our Solitude wedding at the Moonbeam Lodge. The food was UNBELIEVABLE. Solitude's team worked well with our selected vendors to set the scene for a beautiful wedding. In addition to the wedding, we had our rehearsal dinner at Solitude. Great food and service. Many of our guests were from out of town and stayed with us at the Inn at Solitude. They all loved the resort. Especially the moose sightings!

    Best venue

    It was better than we had even imagined! Julianna was incredibly attentive and helpful every step of the way for any change or new idea. They take such good care of their couples and really make sure things go smoothly for them so we just got to relax and enjoy the day! Julianna was a rockstar!!

    very disappointing

    The grass was dead, brown where the ceremony site was, and i was refused a discount on having to hold a ceremony on brown grass. Other areas were watered but the lawn at the INN where we held ceremony was not. The staff was less than helpful at understanding the problem. I had paid for the green grass and when we arrived and it was brown created a lot of stress on such an important day. Their lack of response and refusal to take responsibility for giving those of us who paid for a venue with green grass was disappointing.

    Solitude Mountain Resort's reply:

    We had a wonderful time hosting this beautiful wedding and are sorry to hear that our natural mountain backdrop did not meet your expectations. Utah is currently experiencing an extreme drought. The governor has extended a state of emergency, and Salt Lake County is one of 29 Utah counties listed by the USDA under the Secretarial Disaster Designation for drought for 2021. As conscientious and responsible community members, we are carefully managing our limited water resources, which has impacted lawn watering and other nonessential uses, as we advised all weddings and events earlier this year.
