BEST CHOICE I've ever made!
We did an all inclusive wedding package. The Intimate. It was all perfect. The ladies who work here are amazing and they truly make you feel so special. It didn't feel fake either. There are so many choices and if you're anything like me, I can't make up my mind. Haha. However, I sent Amanda inspiration pictures of decor and style I loved and they made the dream come true. There is not a single thing about the experience we had that I would change.

AMAZING VENUE
5 stars isn’t enough to adequately rate my experience with The Lofton! Amanda was so fun and easy to work with leading up to my wedding - she was constantly helpful and I felt like she truly wanted me to have the best wedding planning experience possible. We also booked the Lofton Catering Co, and they were (not surprisingly) also incredible! The food was delish, and they were so good about accommodating gluten-free options for myself and several guests. They even let me request custom signs for our dishes, and sent them home with us so we could keep them for memories! The whole team there was fantastic for the day of, through rain and shine. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

I need more than five stars to give them
Amanda and her team at The Lofton are THE BEST. Every single detail was seen to from start to finish. The space is absolutely gorgeous and their team made things so easy and stress free for my new husband and I. You will not regret booking here.

The best staff and venue in the world
The Lofton was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. From the moment we first reached out, they were fantastic listeners and made sure to answer every single question we had, no matter how small or when we asked. The venue itself is simply breathtaking - every time we visited, I couldn't help but smile knowing it was the perfect place for our special day. I wanted to DIY a decent portion of the wedding, and the Lofton team took care of everything else, making my wedding dreams come true. Their attention to detail and professionalism is unmatched, and I would recommend them to any couple looking for an unforgettable wedding experience.

I absolutely love The Lofton!
I have no clue where to begin and I know this will be a long review, but it’s worth reading. There was a snow storm set for the day before my wedding and not everybody could make it. This will obviously send any bride spiraling. Amanda (the owner and planner) gave us the option to push the date to a day later and allow us to stay in the lodging at no extra expense to us, if we wanted. We decided to keep the day we chose and she made sure everything was PERFECT. Everything was delivered before the storm and she stayed late everyday leading up to the wedding. She had people she knew come in and plow roads to ensure people could make it to the wedding. The Lofton is so beautiful and homey and I believe that anyone who books with The Lofton is absolutely lucky and will love everything. They have so many packages to choose from and they will work with you to add on whatever you need. My wedding was more than I could ever dream of and if I could do it all again, I absolutely would. Also if I could just book lodging with them just to stay, I would. It is SO beautiful. Thank you Amanda for everything you’ve done for me and our family.
