We got to host our wedding at Love Ridge Mountain Lodging and we loved the experience. We appreciate the setting because it is beautiful, accessible and appropriately private. Having the 12 cabins there, as well as the camp sites, gave our guests many options and ample parking. All the rooms and beds are super comfortable. It was a perfect place to host a large gathering. People stayed two nights and enjoyed relaxing activities while we focused on staging the wedding - they could hike, ride e-bikes, play lawn games, relax in hot-tubs, and play with our photo booth. It was great! There were many spaces to choose from to create various atmospheres for the wedding. We used the lodge, the gathering lawn, the courtyard, and we had a tent on the open field for the reception dinner. We also had multiple bonfires and bar sites. It made the event feel varied and exciting, while keeping everyone in one place. The venue owners were very helpful and accommodating, happy to work with us during the planning process to make sure everything was taken care of. We're thus very happy to recommend this place!

Lovingston winery was so incredible for our wedding! I would go back there a million times over! Tessa is SO responsive that it’s almost unbelievable how quick she replies haha. It makes your planning a breeze! Her and Wes are so kind and helpful and will genuinely make your wedding a dream come true! You also get to stay at the farmhouse on site which is an incredible place to stay and the perfect place to get ready. They are super dog friendly which was important to us. You can use whatever catering you want and can even provide your own alcohol (with ABC license) which makes it so affordable. They also have lots of items that you can rent from them and will recommend vendors that are great. They truly made our wedding absolute perfection and we cannot wait to go back to visit Lovingston winery for many years to come! Choose them, no questions asked!!!
