1684 Venue Resort

Nestled on the shores of Lake Tenkiller in Cookson, OK, sits the 1684 Venue Resort, a serene venue for weddings and other special events in the heart of the Ozark Mountains. Owners Colby and Phallyn King are proud to welcome guests to a property where the beauty of nature and the wonder of history intertwine. The resort's story began in the Germany countryside over 340 years ago when the stunning Korbein-Alt Timber Frame was constructed. Transported across the sea to the spectacular plains of Oklahoma, the timber frame structure now stands in its new home, forming the very foundations of a venue where new beginnings are celebrated each and every day. Today, 1684 Venue | Resort stands on 200 acres with lakefront views, providing an idyllic backdrop for wedding ceremonies and receptions. Couples can say "I do" in the beautiful Grand Hall or Outside Lake View Deck. Both spaces can also be used for receptions, seating up to 250 guests for a most memorable meal. Those who would prefer to exchange vows outdoors can begin their day taking in the gorgeous view, making the blossoming greenery and nearby waters their event décor. For those post-ceremony conversations and cocktails, the covered porch offers a truly unmatched setting. The 1684 Venue Resort boasts two private dressing suites where to-be-weds can prepare for their special day with loved ones. Featuring refined interiors and elegant décor, these spaces blend seamlessly with the venue's overall aesthetic and ambiance. All wedding packages include exclusive access to the entire property, ensuring a tranquil and intimate wedding experience. The resort's events team will provide comprehensive event setup services, arranging tables and chairs to a couple's specifications. The 340-year living legacy is only the beginning of the 1684 Venue | Resort's story, a story that every couple who hosts their big day here is part of.
