Deloro Valley is one of the most naturally beautiful wedding venues I have ever been to, without the stuffy and stiff vibes of other venues. It feels like a very liberating sanctuary with a sort of 'adult summer camp' vibe. The team is incredibly friendly and the communication is excellent, responsive and diligent. As a wedding planner, it was rare to have every guest mention the space was hard to leave. They went above and beyond to accommodate requests and make the experience truly unique and special. It's clear how important the happiness of the client is to the Deloro Valley team. Most of my wedding guests said it was the best wedding they'd ever been to.

Our wedding experience was nothing short of magical, and it's all thanks to the incredible efforts of Jessica, our outstanding wedding coordinator at this enchanting venue. From the moment we engaged her services, we found ourselves effortlessly gliding through the entire process without a single moment of stress. Jessica's expertise and meticulous attention to detail were evident in every aspect of our special day. So much so, that I wholeheartedly entrusted her with the arrangement of the florals, not laying eyes on them until the wedding day itself. To say she exceeded our expectations would be an understatement – every detail was flawlessly executed. The venue itself is an absolute gem, radiating an undeniable charm that contributed to the overall magic of the occasion. The accompanying homes provided for our use were not only incredibly cute but also showcased Jessica's unwavering commitment to perfection – no detail was left unattended. Reflecting on our wedding day, my spouse and I find ourselves repeatedly expressing the sentiment that, if given the chance, we would relive that extraordinary day over and over again. This venue, with Jessica at the helm, truly created an unforgettable experience, and we couldn't be more grateful for the seamless, beautiful celebration she orchestrated. Thank you Jessica!

We had a beautiful, fairytale wedding at Lillaskog Lodge! The views were amazing, the location was private and close to Yosemite, and the price was very reasonable. The lodge fit the majority of our wedding party and their plus ones so we didn’t have to make separate accommodations, which we loved. We also utilized the shuttle bus service to take wedding guests to/from nearby lodging which was a huge plus! The owners are super friendly, responsive, and easy to work with. We really appreciated all of their help from the time we booked to the day of our wedding. We would definitely recommend this venue, but we do feel people should consider that with Lillaskog’s charm and perks also comes some minor downsides and quirkiness. The lodge was designed with it’s Swedish roots in mind with lots of bright colors and patterns which made finding places for our wedding photographer to take pictures inside a bit of a challenge, but we ultimately made it work and took most pictures outside anyway. It’s also definitely not a modern place - it has old and mismatched furniture and appliances, and there’s no central air conditioning (which was not a big deal for us but could be a problem in hotter months). Due to being in the mountains and in the wilderness, you will also undoubtedly encounter creatures, critters, cobwebs, etc. These things didn’t bother us too much but they might bother someone else so we thought they were worth mentioning. Overall we loved our stay, had the wedding of our dreams, and would highly recommend Lillaskog Lodge!
