Now booking the 2024 and 2025 season.

Wedding Venues:

Ceremony Sites: Several ceremony locations are available from which to choose, with our most popular being the Mountain Meadow ceremony site. This provides an expansive backdrop of the Green Mountains accessible by private use of our Gate House Chairlift. One of the only private lifts available to rent in Vermont, this location provides an incredibly memorable and unique experience for you and your guests!

Chairlift not for you? The Gate House Lawn and Clay Brook Courtyard, located in the base area at Lincoln Peak, offers stunning views of the surrounding mountains and has a picturesque background for your ceremony photos.

Reception Venues:

Mountain View & Courtyard Room: Located in the Lincoln Peak Courtyard, this space comfortably accommodates 100-250 guests, and features cathedral ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows, and expansive mountain views. Enjoy a cocktail hour in our beloved après locations, Castlerock Pub, or on the Gate House Patio. This venue location is steps away from the Gate House Chairlift, which accesses the Mountaintop Meadow ceremony site.

Rumble’s Bistro & Bar: Located across the Lincoln Peak Courtyard from the Gate House Lodge, this elegant post-and-beam venue features a 45-foot cathedral ceiling, stone fireplace, and outdoor slope-side terrace. Rumble’s is the perfect venue for an intimate wedding reception of up to 100 guests and is conveniently attached to the Clay Brook Luxury Hotel and Residences.

Mt Ellen: Located five minutes from the Lincoln Peak base area, Mt Ellen Lodge is our vintage Vermont ski lodge which can accommodate up to 150 guests. This newly renovated location offers some of the best views of the Mad River Valley and features an expansive deck; great for cocktail hours and late-night receptions. This venue location provides a private and affordable option for those looking to get married in the Green Mountains.

Accommodations:

Clay Brook Hotel: Clay Brook Hotel & Residences offers guests luxury slope-side lodging accommodations to help you feel right at home. Clay Brook's hotel rooms to four-bedroom suites are furnished in rich detail and are completely appointed with hardwood furniture, custom cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and granite counters. Built in 2006, Clay Brook has modern amenities, including in-room Jacuzzi tubs, a game room, Fitness Center, a year-round outdoor pool, and two Jacuzzi tubs.

Sugar Lodge: The Sugar Lodge is a classic Vermont alpine mountain lodge located less than a ½ mile from Sugarbush’s Lincoln Peak base area. With Twenty-two newly renovated guest rooms, a living area, and a lobby, the lodge offers the ambiance and warmth of a country inn with amenities you would expect from a larger hotel. With its proximity to all resort activities and competitive rates, the Sugar Lodge is the ideal choice for your guests looking for more modest accommodations.

Sugarbush Inn: A mix of deluxe and standard rooms provide all the Vermont charm and hospitality you expect at a country inn. This is a great option for wedding parties looking to reserve a larger block of rooms to accommodate up to 80 guests in one place.

Sugarbush Resort Condos: Choose from an array of one to four-bedroom condominiums and country townhomes located within a mile of the Sugarbush Resort. This is a great option for guests looking to accommodate a small group or just looking for a bit more space.

Best venue ever

Where to begin?! We got married at Sugarbush last weekend and are still talking about what an incredible experience we had. The venue speaks for itself -- it's gorgeous, everything is on-site, and there are tons of great things for guests to do nearby. The food was fantastic (we did a plated dinner with vegetable ravioli, beef with mushroom sauce, and mustard maple chicken as our options and have heard rave reviews from our guests about all of them). Amanda was our coordinator and was an absolute dream to work with. She was incredibly organized, responsive, and has such a calming presence which helped so much during such a chaotic day! Multiple people from our families and wedding party were commenting on how great she is and we couldn't agree more. I could truly go on for days about Sugarbush and how it was everything we dreamed of for our wedding day. Can't recommend them enough!

11/10 venue

Sugarbush is the perfect wedding venue!! We were married on October 28th, 2023 and after a particularly rainy summer, some autumn leaves stuck around for a lovely late-fall atmosphere. Not only are there several on-site lodging options for your guests, but the resort provides food and drink services, beautiful spaces for events before, during, and after the main event, and finally, event coordination, which I think is one of their most valuable services! We worked with Alyssa August from beginning to end. She guided us through the planning process and turned our vision into something that exceeded any and all expectations. Not only was she professional and responsive, but she was also extremely kind, fun, and reassuring, which helped me stay grounded and completely present once the wedding started. She is a PRO at what she does. We were provided with extremely helpful planning documents about 6 months ahead of the wedding for us to work on, and once our RSVPs rolled in, we were in constant communication for about 2 months leading up to the wedding. She was able to seamlessly handle any last minute changes, such as guest cancellations and moving the ceremony inside after a surprise change in the forecast. I should also note that while an outdoor ceremony was our original plan, the indoor ceremony within the Gate House Lodge was described as "electric" by our guests and felt destined to happen that way. The entire staff at Sugarbush was so well equipped to throw us the best party we've ever been to. The Clay Brook hotel is insane too - getting to hit the hot tub the morning after the wedding was awesome. GET MARRIED HERE. You will not regret it!

Truly the best wedding team you could ask for

First, we want to thank the entire Sugarbush wedding team for their yearlong support in planning our wedding! From the moment we started exploring sugarbush, everyone was communicative and transparent and felt invested in our wedding.

Molly, our coordinator, kept us on track (and that’s a high compliment coming from a pretty organized and control-freak bride) and worked with us to make everything work, from managing our vendors to suggesting ideas and being flexible when things inevitably changed. The day of our wedding was beautiful but cold, and Molly and team were there every step of the way shepherding people around and making sure every guest was comfortable. One thing I will never forget is standing under the arch, shaking from the cold and from excitement in the 40° weather in my strapless dress, and Molly appearing from nowhere to hand me a wrap and a white blazer so I would be more comfortable.

The venue is beautiful and there are so many places to host different parts of the wedding. Our guests loved that the weekend was a fall experience, and we felt good knowing there was plenty to do during down times.

The sugarbush team is undoubtedly the best at what they do, AND they make you feel like family. They really care that every vision you have, no matter how different, gets executed, and they take your wedding personally. Everyone should get to work with a great team like the sugarbush team.
