Killington Resort

dding - I can not say enough about how amazing Sharon Mayer and the team at Killington are. Every aspect was handled perfectly. Even small details I planned to handle were taken care of for me. And everything was beyond my expectations. Our rehearsal dinner was also at the resort and was a wonderful time as well. Sharon was present at my ceremony to make sure everything went just right and she checked in with me during the reception to ensure we were happy. All of my vendors were experts managed and I never once had stress or anxiety about any details of my day. You will not be disappointed if you chose to host your event at Killington

our beer drinking guest wicked happy! Everyone is still talking about how amazing the food was. We also loved that everything was right there and neither us or our guests had to leave the resort. Look no further for your Vermont wedding!

g meals for all 3 days that people actually RAVED about. The hotel staff was accommodating, pleasant and helpful, and our guests could not stop talking about what a wonderful experience they had. Caryn, our coordinator, did a fabulous job staying on top of everything and we cannot say enough nice things about how great she was to work with. Overall, if you are looking to have a wedding in Vermont (black-tie or otherwise), want a spectacular view and staff that cares about your happiness, this is the place for you!

sts were not even aware that we were changing our plans. Things went smoothly and effortlessly. Killington Grand offers much for a wedding weekend - really nice lodging, pool and spa, outside adventure activities enjoyed by all ages, and options for meals. Cannot say enough about the friendliness and helpfulness of all the staff of the resort during our staff. Only downfall would be construction happening during our stay - was not informed of this up front and was a major disappointment not to have access to the grand staircase and beautiful ambiance of the fieldstone fireplace and main lobby, especially during our rainy days. this was one of reasons for choosing the Grand, and then to have lost it, was a big loss. Also next morning after reception, breakfast at Prestons was a disappointment as well - understaffed, with only one cook on hand - over an hour and a half waiting for our meal, making us late for checkout - However - Manager came out with personal apologies, 50% discounts, and extended checkout times for all. We were very appreciative of the caring attitude taken. All around, I would recommend this venue for weddings most defintely, even with challenges, it shines brightly.

perfectly. The hotel staff knew our names, they checked the radar for the weather all weekend, the setup of the smallest details was absolutely perfect, and they were SO welcoming of our guests. I piled all of our wedding decor into boxes with some photo ideas and then told Katie to "do her thing"- and she did!! The decor was AMAZING. Everyone is still complimenting us, saying the venue was the most unique they have ever seen. They weren't phased by the rain striking mid-ceremony, soggy hair and clothes- because they felt like they "were in a cloud". It could not have gone more perfectly. THANK YOU for making our day so perfect!

n with, we picked the brand new Peak Lodge as our venue. Both inside and outside are unbelievably breathtaking, and while we had to be flexible because the room was so new, the space provided an elegant, one-of-a-kind venue. We decided to showcase the mountain by keeping all decorations minimal and had our cocktail hour and ceremony outside of the Peak Lodge so that our guests could enjoy the panoramic views for as long as possible. We were the first wedding to do so and Killington was incredibly accommodating in working with us to figure out the best use of the space. Aside from the amazing space itself, the staff was wonderful. The gondola operators were incredibly kind in helping all of our guests get on and off of the (never stopping) gondolas. Many of our guests complimented the servers and bar staff and were impressed at their attention. The outside of the Peak Lodge has several different levels, and during the outside cocktail hour, our guests were impressed that servers got to even the most spread out people in our party. We were also thrilled to also have a dedicated server for ourselves, who made sure we were able to have as many of the appetizers as we could want during cocktail hour and that our food was not taken away too quickly as we were socializing at dinner. Eric, the head chef at the Peak is truly a wonder. If you ever taste his food during ski season, you’ll know that it’s not typical ski lodge fair. He helped us create a new menu befitting of the space and was absolutely delicious. Everything was also cooked to order and entire tables were served together, so each plate was delivered hot and cooked perfectly. We also had a few guests with dietary restrictions and Eric was able to adjust the meals for them, or in one extreme case, come up with an entirely new dish for our guest. Finally, Sharon Mayer, our wedding coordinator, was an enormous help. With a no-nonsense attitude, she organized everything to be exactly as we wanted and came up with contingency plans anytime things got sidetracked. She was always available for questions and put up with numerous phone calls and emails from us. The day of the wedding she ran the show perfectly. From small details like deciding the apple cider at cocktail hour should be served warm to go with the chilly weather, to larger items like overseeing the setup of the space and timing the exits for the processional, everything she did was executed with the utmost professionalism. All of our guests have raved about the amazing experience at the Peak and their weekend in general. Most stayed on the property and participated in all of the activities Killington has to offer, such as the pools and the new summer adventure center. We wanted a space where all of our guests, traveling from around the world, could gather and stay together with our friends and family, and that is exactly what we found in Killington. From the views, to the food, to the service, to everything in between, it was exactly what we were looking for in a venue and couldn’t imagine finding a more perfect place.

remotely from Boston and whenever we had questions, we emailed Sharon. Sharon was responsive, professional, flexible, and very organized. She coordinated our rehearsal, brought up questions and ideas that we hadn't even thought of and made sure that our wedding weekend and wedding day would go smoothly. She corresponded with our vendors to make sure items were delivered and set-up on time. I arrived my wedding weekend without feeling stressed. Sharon allowed us to deliver all of our wedding decorations (large wooden pallet, vintage suitcases, multiple chalkboards, string lights, wedding albums, globe, etc), welcome bags, and wedding favors and she and her staff took care of all of the details. I didn't have to ask family or friends to help, and was able to spend time catching up with them instead of worrying whether things would come together. Killington is a surprising bargain compared to other wedding venues in the area. They offer season passes, a complimentary one night stay in a one bedroom suite (which we used as the bridal suite), free massages (which I gifted to the maid of honor and a cousin), among other amenities. It was a great weekend, a wonderful venue, and if I had to pick a venue, I would still pick Killington.

and was very helpful as we worked through the planning process. On wedding day, the food was top notch, the service was excellent, and the venue was set up beautifully (including some last second changes). It was extremely nice and convenient to have most everything under one roof. We did not have to worry about coordinating vendors as Katie and the Killington staff took care of all of that for us. For the few things Killington does not provide in house, the resort has a vendor list which came in handy as we are not from Vermont. We had a Friday wedding. Katie and her staff even had some construction that was occurring take the afternoon off so we wouldn't have to hear them during the ceremony! Overall, we were delighted with Killington's experience and would not hesitate to recommend them.

to ceiling windows provided the perfect backdrop for Alpenglow from every dinner table. A first dance came complete with falling (fake) snowflakes followed by lights going down for a stunning fireworks display that lit up the lodge from the outside. There is no wedding venue in New England like the Peak Lodge, no nightlife like Killington, and no spring skiing that can compare to Bear Mountain. Killington can bring the beast mode and the beauty mode. In the end that combination is what makes for an incredibly fun and beautiful wedding. Thanks to the team of people at Killington who really made this all happen. Great to work with! Photos and more at https://medium.com/@seanjregan/killington-the-beast-tries-beautiful-85a9c4aa0f0f

d made our day perfect! She also made it easy to plan from 7 hours away. The accommodations were outstanding and very affordable for a resort in the summer! Our guests were so happy to make the journey for our destination wedding and cannot wait to return for their own vacation!

bar took some time... i would make sure for a large wedding they have enough stations. Food was excellcent and the ballroom was transformed into just what a wanted with help from my vendors.

were quite spectacular! I would definitely recommend this hotel!

tstaff was. The wedding planner worked with us for months to help us plan the perfect day- and she was incredibly flexible. She also offered some great advice and creative ideas. The day after our wedding was amazing as well. The Killington staff did all of the cleanup and brought all of my (there were a TON) decorations up to my car. We were incredibly impressed with the whole process. Not to mention- our guests LOVED staying at the Killington Grand. The weather was gorgeous, the resort was gorgeous, and there was plenty to do throughout the weekend. We loved every second. 5 starts, for sure!!!

nteracted with my family through it all. She's called a professional for a reason. :) Killington also catered our event. Everything was delicious, and those guests with special dietary needs appreciated the individual attention. The head chef was also very willing to answer our questions and make adjustments (even though we would never have changed a thing).

y good and the staff was always available. We highly recommed the Killington Grand and Amy!

coordinator and the communication most definitely improved. I have provided a lot of feedback to Killington on what I liked and didn't like about the process, but all in all, Killington was accomodating with my choices for different menu options, quickly responded to my questions and concerns, and ultimately delivered an amazing day that went off with any problems.
