Absolutely Magical !!

From the very beginning, we always knew that we wanted to get married in Vermont. After visiting Mountain Top Resort, we instantly knew that it was the place. From the breathtaking views of the mountains to the all-on-property experience with amazing food options, Mountain Top was the hands-down best choice!

Since our first introduction to Khele and the whole Mountain Top staff, they provided a truly magical experience. To say that we were blessed and could not have done it without Miranda and Zoey (our coordinators) would be a complete understatement. Throughout the whole process, it was extremely comforting and reassuring to know that Miranda and Zoey were just a phone call or email away. They were both extremely helpful, professional, and knowledgeable. From the start they were there to answer our many questions that arise from planning a winter destination wedding, provide guidance on different options, kept us on track for all our important deadlines, brought all our visions to reality on our special day, and so much more than we could list.

As many people would say, we are huge “foodies”. When asked about weddings, most people would say the thing they remembered most was whether the food was good. In the case of Mountain Top (in addition to the all-on-property experience and breathtaking mountain view mentioned before), the food is certainly memorable. Whether it was the rehearsal dinner, hors d’oeuvres at cocktail hour, meals at the reception, or late-night snacks, every item of food was phenomenal. Words just simply could not do justice to describe how incredible the food tasted. Our friends and family are still ranting and raving about the food!

Gayle and her staff at Meadow’s Edge Floral are incredible and would whole-heartedly recommend them for your floral / décor. We could not thank them enough for all the décor (greenery / bouquets / boutonnieres / ice luminaries / table centerpieces and everything in between). Every detail from rehearsal dinner to the reception was truly spectacular and transformed the spaces into something more than we could have ever imagined! All the small special touches made it that much more enchanting.


Mountain Top was everything a couple could wish for in a wedding venue and more. We will continue to recommend it to family / friends and plan to visit again soon!

Thank you all from the bottom of our hearts for making our dream wedding a reality!

Enchanted Wedding (thanks to Mountain Top)

In late July, my son and his beloved were married at Mountain Top Resort. The experience was extraordinary from start to finish. Our coordinator, Max, oversaw every aspect of the weekend but his job started before that weekend. Max was on top of every aspect of the planning, promptly answered multiple emails, following through on any concern we brought up and lending his expertise to make the day the bride dreamed of.
We chose to host a Welcome Party as opposed to a Rehearsal Dinner since the majority of the 200 guests were not from the area. The Pavilion was the perfect spot for this event and easily accommodated all the guests buffet style with an abundance of good food.
The following morning, I know our guests enjoyed a myriad of activities, prior to the main event, including clay shooting, horseback riding, canoeing and fishing, all available at the Resort.
Mother Nature cooperated and we were able to have the Ceremony on the Wedding Knoll. Absolutely spectacular! The scenery was simply majestic.
The reception was held at the Barn but it was anything but rustic. Meadows Edge Floral transformed the space into a magical enchanted garden.
We also hosted a farewell breakfast for our guests before they embarked on their journey home. The food was outstanding and it put a seal on the perfect wedding weekend.
Through it all, Max was present, overseeing every aspect, checking on all the last minute details one forgets about. Thank you for everything!

Best Decision Ever

When we started looking for a wedding venue, we knew Vermont was the place we wanted to get married, as we met at UVM and both of our families live close by. The problem was.. we lived in San Diego. We saw about 7 venues in VT and from the moment we saw MTR we knew it was something special. It had exactly what we wanted - a modern rustic yet cohesive feel so all of our friends and family could stay on-site together, activities on the lake or land, and an amazing outdoor ceremony site (not to mention the beautiful cocktail hour space and barn for the reception). They also provide coordinators - shout out to Miranda (could not have done this without her help... more on her later) - florists on site, amazing catering... and they clearly know what they're doing. Despite multiple weddings per week (sometimes even multiple in one day!), the Mountain Top staff stays positive, calm, collected, and makes sure everything runs smoothly and perfectly. Everyone told me to expect at least one thing to go wrong during my wedding, so I had braced myself. But not a single thing went wrong (unheard of) the entire weekend of our wedding, and it was absolutely amazing.
Miranda - Keith and I both said this to you multiple times during the weekend, and I'll say it again - YOU ARE INCREDIBLE and Mountain Top is SO lucky to have you!
Not only are we now best friends but Miranda just made the planning process so fun, stress-free, and amazing for us. On arrival, we unloaded multiple boxes of props/picture frames/small details etc, and Miranda took them all from us, remembered every single item without question and where to put them, and made the whole process so seamless for us. She helped us with any problem, big or small, that came up throughout the weekend, knew the timing of the entire welcome party/ceremony/cocktail hour/reception/after party off the top of her head, helped us stay on schedule, and made sure everything was perfect.
I can't recommend Mountain Top Resort enough if you're planning your wedding in Vermont! Thank you again for EVERYTHING. It was magical (can't wait to come back and visit for our anniversary).

Easily, the Mountain Top Inn is among the best wedding venues, if not, THE best wedding venue in Vermont. The food and view of the Chittenden reservoir is always second to none and the staff is friendly and courteous. I highly recommend Mountain Top Inn for your wedding, or any other function... you will be glad you did!

Beautiful views of the countryside and the new barn is a great addition. I love to bring my cakes to the Mountain Top and be part of the action there.

I first photographed a wedding at The Mountaintop Inn & Resort in July of 2004. Not only is the location breathtaking, but the staff went out of their way to make sure the guests and vendors had whatever they needed. I was extremely impressed with the ease in which the days events flowed and how pleasant it was to be working at this venue. The guests were able to be there for the weekend and many of them commented to me how fabulous the resort was and how relaxed they were able to feel at this wedding. I didn't want the night to end! This has been the case consistently over the years and the Mountain Top remains one of my favorite places to photograph weddings. Very highly recommended!
