The team at Verde Canyon Railroad was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. Their communication was friendly, efficient, and easy, which made planning our special day a breeze. The value they provided was great, with a unique and memorable experience (and amazing photo opportunities). They worked with us to create a customized menu, an adorable welcome sign, and their staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming throughout the event. A special shout out to Ellen who arranged for us to do a “first look” on the train beforehand. Our guests have raved about what a one-of-a-kind wedding we had, and we credit a lot of that to the wonderful team at Verde Canyon Railroad, especially Ellen who was great to work with. We were not a small group —120 people— and they handled us with ease.

Awarded Best of Zola
Tres Brisas absolutely delivered as a fantastic wedding venue. We took full advantage of all of the amenities offered: the wedding party stayed at lodging on-site and used the two houses to get ready on the wedding day, we utilized the riverfront for our ceremony, the ramada area for our reception, and spent the day after the wedding with our wedding party relaxing in the pool/watering hole. Dennis, Eamonn, and Elsa were incredibly detail-oriented, accommodating, and ensured the process was as stress-free as possible. I appreciated that they had a list of recommended vendors they had compiled, and also appreciated that we were not forced to use someone from that list like with a lot of venues. For the perfect Arizona wedding at a reasonable cost, I could not recommend Tres Brisas more.

As soon as we toured the venue and saw the view of Humphreys Peak from the ceremony location, we were sold. Our experience only got better from there. Alexis Holle was our coordinator, designer, and florist through her company, Holleday Productions. Alexis is an absolute artist. With a few conversation over email and a Pinterest board, Alexis created the perfect vision board. She executed that vision beautifully on our wedding day. I cannot recommend The Arboretum at Flagstaff and Alexis enough!
