I can't say enough wonderful things about Lookout Mountain Club and everything they did for our wedding day! The venue was absolutely stunning, the staff incredibly helpful, and Shanelle was exceptionally kind and attentive. Whatever I needed, they handled promptly and with care. They were wonderfully flexible when I made last-minute changes and went out of their way to help ease my stress throughout the day. Even though Shanelle joined my wedding planning process late, she quickly understood my vision and made it a reality. The food was fantastic! My husband and I felt truly loved and honored, and our guests still rave about how special the wedding was. The club itself is breathtaking-an ideal, unforgettable setting for any event.

We had room for all of the ladies to have hair and makeup done without it being crowded. The living room area was perfect for my bridal party to eat breakfast and socialize while waiting for hair and makeup. We got to take lots of pictures and made so many great memories before our wedding ceremony! What I loved most about this venue is how much space is available!
