Afton Alps Ski Resort & Golf Course

every detail. Everyone kept telling us how great the food was. I would strongly recommend getting married here!

my sister had was met. She was great to work with and had a lot of knowledge for every question we asked. She always went above and beyond what we had requested to make my sister have a great night. In addition, the food was amazing!!!! Everyone kept coming up to us letting us know they loved the food. I highly recommend having your wedding here!!!!!!

ges, and the contact person changed. It was very difficult for me to work with this site because of all of these changes, and often times I was not notified that changes were being made until weeks or months after. I also had issues with the "contract" because there was a big misunderstanding between what I thought the contract was and what the site said the contract was. Most of the communication with the site was by email, and I would often times have to repeat multiple responses and make many clarifications. ON more than one occasion, I was told something, and then later that was redacted. I was frustrated many times and more than once wanted to forfeit my deposit and choose a different venue. When my parents and I went for a tasting to choose our menu options, we waited hours to talk to a site coordinator and ended up leaving before being able to do so. At the tasting, we were only able to sample main options, but not any of the sides. This was greatly disappointing to me, because I wanted to see what everything would look like on one plate. That being said, when my plate was placed in front of me at dinner - I was disappointed in the presentation and the actual side option and wished I had chosen something else. The property itself is beautiful. We chose it for the beautiful picture spots and the smaller, more intimate setting of the room - Paul's. The best part was being able to set up for my Saturday wedding, on a Thursday. The support staff at the venue were wonderful to interact with and made sure that our guests and my husband and I had a wonderful time. The bartenders were courteous and professional, and made sure that my husband and I were having a good time. My wedding guests had a wonderful time and loved the venue, and my husband and I enjoyed our evening there; that is the ultimate goal but everything leading up to the event could have been easier. I hope that our process of planning a wedding reception at Afton has ironed out some details for future couples. I sincerely hope that there aren't anymore drastic changes for other couples that are going through this process.

g). As I sat down to eat my first meal of the day, Jodie came rushing up to me. "You told me you only needed 4 kids meals, there are more than 4 kids here!" Well, I politely reminded her that I paid for 10 kids meals and there were fewer than 10 kids there. She looked at me, surprised and unbelieving and said that she'd check the invoice. Then dessert time came. My personal attendant and another friend had agreed to serve my pies and were working on getting them ready when Jodie came rushing to me again. "Did you need plates for this?" I was confused but said yes. Her next response made me turn and walk away from her. "You didn't tell me that you needed plates and silverware for dessert!" Really?! There was more drama with her around dessert as well but I decided to ignore her and enjoy my day. The worst issue that we ran into was that the septic backed up and flooded the bathrooms. They claimed that this had never happened before but when I spoke with people that regularly came there to ski and gold, they said it happened all the time. Even that would have been understandable. The thing that upset me and everyone at my wedding, was the lack of planning by Jodie and the other staff. The bathrooms were shut down for almost an hour before I had to go find her to ask her what the plan was for the bathrooms. I had guests leaving my wedding because they couldn't use the bathroom. She explained that they were waiting for someone to come and fix them. Well that's great. I asked if there was another bathroom that my people could use in the meantime. She admitted that she hadn't thought of that but would get golf carts to take people to another bathroom. The bathroom that they took them to was in a service building that didn't get used. The bathrooms had rusty water and were not acceptable for guests dressed in wedding attire. I am only thankful that I didn't have to use the bathroom for the rest of the night. I managed to keep myself from getting upset with her that night and enjoy my day. I did however complain to her supervisor. If someone is going to be a wedding coordinator, they should know their wedding inside and out. If issues come up, which is inevitable, the bride should not find out about them until after they are resolved. When something comes up, the coordinator should go to anyone but the bride. Especially if the bride has a personal attendant or other people there that can help. The biggest issue with Jodie is her approach and tone with people. These couples just paid you thousands of dollars and spent months, maybe years planning this day. They should be treated like your most important customers, not like children to be scolded. I was extremely disappointed with her. The prices were reasonable when we booked but have since jumped exponentially. The venue was beautiful and we did a lot of things ourselves. I would have loved to recommend this venue to everyone I know but so long as Jodie Burt is working there, I will tell everyone to stay away.

better the closer it got to the wedding but it was still frustrating. They did all the cooking and food was amazing! We had chicken and it was great! Only other problem we had was its not near any large hotels so we hired a shuttle company to get not so sober guests to the hotel safely. Price was very reasonable!

lowed setup Thursday and Friday and were allowed to clean up Sunday.

friendly people to work with. Finally we had enough and I remembered going to prom at Afton Alps and how much I loved it. So, I gave them a call and even though my date was past the time they usually have weddings, they worked with us and let us have that date. From the beginning everyone was so nice and accommodating to us. Brendon, the coordinator, was amazing to work with! Anything we needed, he was there to answer questions. If they didn't have something we wanted, he worked with us. The price is so reasonable for the service they provide. The food is AMAZING!! I have heard nothing but compliments from the guests at our wedding about Afton Alps. It's gorgeous, reasonably priced, the food is amazing, and the people are so helpful. What else could you ask for? Highly, HIGHLY recommend Afton Alps for your wedding.

ere was a large outdoor deck for guests as well. We were able to comfortably sit 300 guests. 0n the webiste it states that it can fit up to 400, but I think that would be a little too crowded.

e satin drapery that we used also!;The signs going into the chalet were not marked very well-so some of our guests got confused, since there are other chalets on the proptery.
