I honestly cannot say enough positive things about Alta House and their staff. Our coordinator made sure our day ran perfectly and was there to help with the little and small things. She saved me so much unnecessary stress. If I had to do it all again I would choose Alta House again without a doubt. The property is beautiful, and the venue can be made to fit your vision no matter what it is.
