Powder Ridge Mountain Park and Resort was an absolute dream venue for our wedding! From the moment we first reached out, Marla and the team were excellent communicators, always staying on top of every detail and being incredibly flexible as we planned our special day. The space was transformed from a restaurant and ski lodge into a lovely ceremony space and magical reception area. The decor outside our wedding space was decked out for Christmas, which went perfectly with our rustic winter theme and made our photographs look fantastic. Marla and Powder Ridge accommodated our every need and assembled our vision without a flaw. Not to mention, the food was absolutely delicious! We couldn't have asked for a better venue or team to bring our wedding to life.

We celebrated our wedding on June 29 with about 75 guests, and it was nothing short of magical. We exchanged our personal vows before the ceremony, which took place outside in front of a beatiful waterfall. The setting was absolutely beautiful and created the perfect backdrop for our special day. Cindy and the entire 650 crew were phenomenal! Their attention to detail and commitment to making our day perfect was evident in everything they did. I wish I had more time to give each of them a hug for their incredible work! The food and drinks were simply amazing — to say they were delicious would be an understatement. What truly set this venue apart was Cindy’s dedication to ensuring everything ran smoothly. She was on top of every detail, even those I wasn’t aware of, allowing me to fully enjoy my day without any worries. I am so grateful to Cindy and the entire team for making our wedding day unforgettable.

This document stands as one of America’s first declarations of independence and is often given as the reason we celebrate July 4. The ‘76 accommodates up to 150 guests in 3 distinctly styled dining rooms, each one graced with a glowing fireplace. Whether you’re planning a corporate luncheon for two dozen guests, a family celebration for fifty or a glamorous wedding, personal assistance from our experienced events staff ensures a flawlessly executed occasion to be remembered for years to come.

Our vision for our wedding was for all our favorite people having a night out at a bar and the 76 house more than delivered! We loved the historical aspect of the restaurant and they even had little pamphlets our guests could take that shared the history of the venue. This is a bit of an untraditional wedding venue (as it is a restaurant) but that didn’t stop anyone from dancing and having a great time. From the moment we started working with Elisa (our “wedding planner” aka the woman who runs the show) she was detail oriented while willing to work with us throughout the whole process. Whether it was from payment, table arrangements, food, getting the vendors set up, etc. anything we needed, she helped. The food tasting she set up for us was amazing allowing us to try various options for the dinner. We are both laid back people so we let the chef go with any appetizers he wanted. You are able to request anything you want and they will likely be able to do it for you. The chef did not disappoint, ALL of the apps were incredible. We had one guest mention he ate 20 meatballs they were so good. There was chicken, steak skewers, lamb chops, meatballs, hummus/veggie spread (that wasn’t even all that was served). We had eaten at the restaurant a few times so we knew the food was good. However, having to serve 120 people and still make it delicious is tough but they did it well (we went with the chateaubriand, amish chicken, mahi mahi, and vegetable risotto). We requested no pork or nuts for the whole wedding. We had a wedding cake through a bakery they recommended and they also put plates of small desserts out on the tables. Aside from the food, the service was amazing. All the waiters and waitresses were attentive and extremely professional. For us, we constantly had our champagne filled and asked whether we needed something. They were on top of water refills, drink requests, clean up, etc. We really appreciated the service given to us and our guests. We heard so many times during cocktail hour that every time someone turned around they had a food option. While we did not have to go up to the bar, our guests said the bartenders were awesome, quick, and generous! Elisa worked great with our other vendors as well, making sure they had everything they needed and that things were kept on schedule (food, dances, cake, etc). We had a completely stress free evening which allowed us to have the time of our lives. She ensured that our tables were set with the centerpieces, the florals were set up, and she created a menu for us (which is great to have something taken off our plate). Elisa also, set up our various signs and ensured everything was where we had discussed. We were able to drop everything off ahead of time and not have anything to worry about the day of. Our biggest concern going to this venue was the fact that the front room was partially separated from the rest of the restaurant. We decided to sit people there who we knew would be a bit rowdier and on the dance floor so it wasn’t an issue for us at all. It did get pretty toasty in there but we were dancing the whole time and it’s an older building. The air tried its best and while sitting for dinner it was more than comfortable! We are a crazy group so I’m not surprised we were sweating lol. This was the best day and a HUGE part of that is thanks to Elisa and her whole team at the 76 house. Food, service, people are TOP NOTCH. We could go on and on but ran out of space :)
