The most amazing experience and venue!!! It is really hard to put into words how in love my husband and I were with our wedding at The Lodge at Two Moons. We had the most incredible experience from our first planning call all the way through the wedding day. Shiloh and her team made the wedding planning so much fun and a seamless experience. It was all a blast, but of course the day of took the cake! We had the amazing opportunity to have the venue for our wedding for the full weekend, so our family and friends were able to enjoy the property all weekend. We held our rehearsal dinner and day of activities all on site. The onsite team was amazing, as well, and truly are the nicest and most thoughtful crew :) The property itself is just gorgeous and made the most amazing setting for our wedding. But, besides just the venue itself it really was The Lodge at Two Moons team that really made our wedding a dream. It was amazing to see the vision I had in my mind truly come to life and look exactly as I had imagined. Shiloh and her team made this happen and with the most professional, caring, communicative, and fun approach. It is really hard to truly explain how much we appreciate them and so happy that the whole team was a part of our day. This place is a dream and we cannot wait to plan other trips up for special celebrations. Thank you to everyone who made our day perfect!

Venue considerations

We had SUCH an amazing experience at Tenaya Lodge! We planned a winter wedding for February and, being from SoCal, it was a bit of a destination wedding for ourselves and our guests. The day went SO seamlessly and the staff were honestly one of my favorite parts of it. Starting with the moment we checked in for the week, everyone from the front desk staff to the waiters at our rehearsal dinner and wedding were so professional, kind, and excited for us. They really added to the experience. The facilities themselves are gorgeous. We got married on the terrace, surrounded by the view of the mountains. My husband and I took a little hike through the grounds with our photographer, it was so fun! Our guests RAVED about the facilities and had so much fun - many of them coordinated family day trips into the park. Some of our classy guests who are used to high end travel were very happy with the service and quality of the resort, restaurant, and bar. Many of our guests were traveling with small children and they also found it a really positive wedding experience - they were able to stay at the wedding all night and the kids had a blast. Some families stayed in the cabins and enjoyed that experience as well. The local vendors are awesome. The only caution I would warn new brides of is to OVER communicate during the planning stage. The wedding brochure is slightly outdated and doesn’t always have complete information. For example, we got caught having to pay an extra 700 to upgrade our meal package to include a third entree after we found out we had more than the allowed number of vegetarians, even though the brochure states that guests on a vegetarian or special diet will be accommodated, and does not state that there is a limit to the number of vegetarian/special diets. I would also encourage brides to use a wedding planner. As a type A person, I thought I could plan the wedding myself. However, the venue hosts many events and the venue coordinator does not always have extra time to really help you plan your dream wedding the way a planner can. Especially if you don’t live locally, you will really benefit from a planner who has worked at the venue before. Overall, we and all of our guests were super happy with our experience at Tenaya and would like to thank all the hard working staff who made our dreams come true!!!

Awarded Best of Zola
We had the best experience booking the pines. Their customizable packages were easy to fit in our budget. I had the easiest time wedding planning thanks to being able to book a package that was almost all inclusive. All I had to book myself was the officiant and photographer/videographer! Their packages also include a wedding coordinator (Brittany) who was by my side through every step of wedding planning, answered every question I had, and who made sure I had the most smooth wedding weekend. I would highly recommend the pines resort to anyone who values gorgeous scenery for the ceremony and reception backgrounds. You won't regret booking with the pines because they will make wedding planning fun and simple!

The staff were competent and very friendly, and the buffet captain in particular went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed and that we were happy throughout the night. The photo booth was a huge hit with our guests and kept everyone entertained.

To begin describing the experience we had at Del Oro Valley is difficult to do! Because it was SO amazing. We had our wedding venue cancel on us 6 months before our wedding and it was an emotionally deflating experience. However we didn’t realize at the time it was a gift that landed us at the most magical venue full of people more aligned with everything we love and stand for. Del Oro valley saved our wedding and provided us with more than we could have ever asked for. They went above and beyond to provide us with a peak experience I’m certain we couldn’t have achieved elsewhere. They helped us produce a talent show at, provided camp counselors for games and community activation, provided a place with incredible sound for us to dance all night, catered delicious food for 110 people, and gave us lasting memories. This venue has it all. Gorgeous mountain outlooks at the amphitheater for our ceremony and a candlelit patio dinner. An A-frame cabin decked out with lights and an excellent sound system for dancing. There’s a huge pool at main camp near lodging for folks to relax at during the day, and lodging onsite for all your people to stay and connect over the weekend. Couldn’t recommend this venue more. Thank you Del Oro Valley for sharing one of the most memorable weekends with us!
