    Getting married at The Lautner Compound was a dream!

    I still can't believe how perfect our wedding day was at The Lautner Compound! It was the ideal venue for our wedding. We loved that we could take amazing Bride and Groom pictures in the John Lautner units and have a beautiful outdoor wedding in the desert. Tracy was awesome to work with and we feel like she's part of the family now! We couldn't have asked for better. Our guests were in awe of the stunning desert view, and we were lucky enough to have perfect weather. We highly recommend The Lautner Compound and can't wait to come back for future celebrations. It's worth the investment for a beautiful, love-filled weekend!

    Amazing and beautiful venue!

    I had my wedding at the Lautner Compound and would highly recommend it! Tracy, the venue owner, and her team keeps the place in pristine shape, and it is a unique venue space with beautiful photo opportunity in every corner.

    It was also great working with Tracy during the planning process. Beyond maintaining the venue, she was very helpful in recommending additional vendors and sharing insights on details like table design and timeline. Tracy genuinely wants to help the bride and groom, and she was always great in answering all the questions I had.

    On the wedding day, the venue manager, Jules, made us feel so comfortable at the Club House, checking in often to make sure we had everything we needed. I'm so glad I chose to have my wedding here, and would recommend it to anyone looking for a superbly managed venue!

    Spectacular!!!!

    This place is a Palm Springs Oasis!!!! Tracy was an absolute pleasure to work with!
    We last minute had to change our venue for our reception with less than a months notice. Tracy was responsive and quick to help us move our whole wedding to the Lautner Compound. The grounds are beautiful and the design of the place so cool! I hope to be back again!

    Perfection!

    The Lautner Compound was one of the first venues we researched on our hunt for the perfect venue and the second we saw it we knew it was perfect for us! As our search continued we realized nothing else compared and The Lautner had set the bar for us!

    We were absolutely thrilled when we visited and saw that everything was even more beautiful and stylish than even the photos could express. We immediately hooked and are so very happy that we made the choice to go with it!

    Tracy the owner was a delight through the whole planning process. She helped us with all our questions and was responsive, kind and professional at every step of the way!

    The big day went off without a hitch and Tracy and her team were there to make sure us and our guests had everything we needed and more. The property looked amazing and we feel so privileged to have had our special day there!

    Most Magical Special Wedding Venue

    I don't even know how to begin reviewing The Lautner Compound. It was truly the stunning centerpiece of our wedding. Coming from chilly SF, and having been to a seemingly infinite amount of other weddings, we were searching for two things: sun and a special X factor. The moment we saw The Lautner, we knew it was the spot for us. The space is a perfect mix of the lush, organic-ness that makes you feel like you're in nature and gorgeous mid-century modern architecture and design. It's the perfect "blank" canvas to build a super special night that really reflected us.

    Our guests were completely blown away by the space - no one had ever been anywhere like it before and they couldn't get enough. Everyone - ourselves included - wanted to simply move in. It has everything you need in terms of space, and the rooms are simply gorgeous. What a place to wake up on your wedding day!! Plus, Tracy was knowledgable, hospitable, and warm, and made sure our friends and family had the time of their lives.

    We can't recommend the Lautner enough!! If you want a magical, unique, organic wedding, look no further. Thank you Tracy, for everything! x

    Mid Century Modern Perfection

    This is the not-so-secret gem of the desert! The perfect presentation of the sought after mid century modern look of 50's Palm Springs. Tracy the owner has the most immaculate taste it's mind boggling. I own a catering company that works at The Lautner all the time, and have (in my humble opinion) a good eye for design, and this is the best venue in the valley. Also, for vendors, it's a great place to work. If you're considering it for your wedding I would say book it before the date is gone!

    My husband and I got married at Hotel Lautner three months ago. We had an amazing experience from start to finish. Tracy (the co-owner and manager) was nothing short of phenomenal in helping us put together our special day. We were able to communicate with her from start to finish, and she was keen on helping us have our dream wedding. When our guests arrived, they were directed to the event space which is adjacent to the hotel. My then fiance and I were each in seperate rooms each preparing for our big moment. Our amazing photographer (katie pritchard) was able to capture us before the wedding without having our guests see me (the bride).The redwood and concrete walls paired with the gorgeous architectural lines of the property make the most beautiful backdrops! **(Also take a short 50 yard walk off the property after your ceremony to get some wonderful shots in the desert itself, another great perk!)
    We had 50 people at our wedding (the space will accommodate up to 300) and we had our ceremony just inside the gate in the event space. Immediately following our I Do's, we were off for photo's and our guests were left to mingle both in the event space and on the hotel grounds. The event space is simple and perfect, with beautiful succulents and landscaping. It is a gorgeous blank canvas (100' x 100') on which you can create your perfect day. Another great thing about this space is the view! It looks upon the San Jacinto mountains, and if you're lucky you may get an achingly beautiful sunset to boot like we did. :) Tracy and her staff will work with you to make your day perfect. There seem to be endless configurations and options to utilize each space to fit your specific needs. The prices are very affordable (rooms and event space) and this was key for us. With Hotel Lautner you get an incredible event space for a virtual steal! - in fact we would argue that the property far surpasses the offerings for other similar locations. :)

    I just had my wedding at the Hotel Lautner and it was the most incredible and wonderful day!!! Kip the events coordinator and Tracy the owner were so absolutely amazing to work with and took such great care of us. They continually went above and beyond for us and treated us with so much care and love. The venue is stunning, and SO well taken care of. It's such a gorgeous venue that you don't even need much in the way of decoration, it's already so stunning and beautifully lit. The 4 rooms were amazing for us to stay in with our family over the weekend, and Kip gave us such fantastic reccos for vendors and other hotels in the area to host our friday night burgers and beers and our sunday pool party. The pricing was an incredible value to us, we didn't need to get flowers or lights and that saved us tons of cash. Kip and Tracy were so on top of every little thing, fixing problems before they even happened and so present and completely available the entire weekend to make sure everything was perfect. The details and the help from both of them went above and beyond and completely blew us and our families and friends away. They not only took care of us, they also made sure our entire family felt taken care of. Truly amazing service! Our wedding weekend couldn't have been more special or perfect, and we owe so much of that to Hotel Lautner. I can't recommend them highly enough. We will be back for every anniversary! THANK YOU SO MUCH Tracy and Kip, you are amazing people and i'm so SO very lucky to have found you and the Hotel Lautner.
