Swan Lake was the perfect reception spot! The whole place was absolutely stunning, but the highlight of our wedding was the cocktail hour on the deck. The views of the lake were unreal, especially as the sun started setting. It felt like something straight out of a dream—good drinks, the best people, and just the most perfect vibe

We absolutely loved having our wedding at The Pines Resort! Their communication style was clear, quick, and left lots of room for us to get creative in the planning process. The venue itself is gorgeous and all-inclusive, with beautiful minimalist decor that created the perfect backdrop without added stress. Brittany, their phenomenal on-site wedding planner, made everything so easy by connecting us with vendors they frequently work with who understand the venue and their approach. We felt empowered to get creative with alternatives when we wanted to make the day our own. With the venue and planning taken care of, we could focus on each other and our love. The Pines Resort receives 100/100 stars from us and we cannot recommend them highly enough for your special day!

We arranged a very short notice wedding during our travels to Yosemite with a group of friends. It was casual and fun - exactly what we wanted. They made a venue package for us because of rare request… can’t thank them enough. The venue was so much fun and the views are awesome! All of our friends loved it. It got a little cold at night but they provided heaters. We want to go back during their rodeo to experience it full action.
