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.

From the moment we started planning our wedding at Powder Hollow Brewery, the team there was incredibly attentive to our every need. Kenzie, the event coordinator, was super accommodating and always checked in to see if we needed anything. The venue was also very affordable, and they provided all the tables, chairs, and buffet supplies we needed, which made the event planning process much smoother. In fact, they even let us come in the night before to decorate the space, which was a huge help on the day of the event. The bridal shower we held there was fabulous, and there were several other events like music and a book fair happening during our party, but Kenzie handled it all beautifully and we and our guests had a wonderful time. We couldn't have asked for a better event venue!
