A huge thank you to Courtney and Alondra for showing up and taking care of business for our Wedding Day. We could not have coordinated and executed everything without you.
Thank you for continuously checking in on us, assisting with what we needed and taking the stress off our plates. Even with unexpected weather we were able to pull of something magical and timeless with your help. We absolutely adore Little America and always stay here when in town. It means so much to us that our dream Wedding occurred here and that you made sure our dream came true.
Courtney and Alondra are the best! They helped make our wedding dreams come true! They are attentive and stride to get every detail perfect for you. I wish we could have our wedding night over and over again, they played a major role in making the night perfect!
The best wedding ever! The food the space and Courtney and Alondra our coordinators were absolutely amazing everything was absolutely perfect and they both are very accommodating to your needs. I would recommend this venue to everyone. Our wedding was absolutely beautiful I wouldn’t change a single thing!
Any questions?
We had our rehearsal lunch at this hotel and it was so easy to get ahold of someone, create a menu and make changes as we needed. The service was great and the food was delicious! The building and scenery is also stunning!
I'm a wedding photographer in Las Vegas, NV and deal with many venues everyday. I was picky with my venue and their inclusions and knew what to look for, but that's just me being in the industry. My now husband found Little America fist, and we both fell in love with the location, forest, and the convenience a hotel offered. We worked with Veronica, Alondra, and Courtney on our wedding day. Everyone was so nice, helpful, and professional. They made it easy to work with them being a "destination" wedding for us. Everything was detailed on the plans, contract and invoice, there were no surprises. The wedding went smoothly, no issues. We asked if we could extend our reception and they accomodated as much as they could on such a short notice (they had another event in the morning to set up for). We were happy to get what we could. Overall, the venue hotel was great (a little pricey on rooms, but we also got married in June, peak travel season), staff was so accommodating and professional to work with. They even learned a phrase in a differnt language to make our international guests feel more welcomed! Such a great personal touch, I'm so glad we chose Little America for our wedding.

Thank you for your kind words, Marina. Your wedding was absolutely beautiful and we were honored to be a part of it. It was a pleasure working with you!
Love this venue! Veronica and Alondra were amazing. Everything went so well and the hotel is beautiful for an outdoor ceremony.
Veronica and her team were terrific. Our day was seamless, my husband and I couldn't be happier with how the day went. Veronica and her team were timely, happy to help, and were checking in throughout the day to make sure we didn't need anything. It was the best day!

Thank you Adrienne for your kind words. We loved being a part of your big day! Best wishes to you both.
It was a pleasure working with Veronica and Alondra throughout the whole wedding planning process. The outdoor ceremony site was so pretty and it flowed well to the ballroom for the reception. The food was amazing and we really appreciated being able to use some items the venue had like cake stands and easels for the welcome sign without an upcharge. We found that all of staff at Little America throughout the property (lobby, restaurant, etc.) were all very friendly and helpful as well.

Thank you Natalie! We loved working on your wedding. What a beautiful day!
They were great at making sure we had everything we needed and staying in touch. They made the day go so smooth and we’re there to help with anything needed. I would definitely recommend them for weddings! They took the time to also make sure our room was clean and fresh after the everyone got ready in the suite, so we could relax and enjoy as newly weds!

Than you, Casey! We had so much fun at your wedding!
Veronica is absolutely amazing at her job. Her communication during the months before our wedding was prompt and thorough. I always felt like I knew exactly what was coming. If I ever had questions she made sure to respond in a timely manner. Then come the weekend of the wedding. She immediately put me at ease with her confidence, knowledge of the process, and willingness to do what was needed to make the day run smoothly. She was there every step of the way the day of our wedding. She made sure the reception room was perfect. She put extra shoes in the reception room for the mother of the groom. She even stood with me to have a meditative moment before I walked down the aisle. With Veronica by my side I felt taken care of and prepared for whatever came on the big day. I would highly recommend Little America and their coordinator Veronica to anyone considering having their wedding in Flagstaff!!!

Thank you Sarah. Your wedding was truly a special one. It was a honor!
Such a beautiful venue! I cannot say enough amazing things about Veronica. She was so sweet and quick to answer any questions or concerns we had throughout the wedding process and the day of. We had the fajita buffet and opted in for cheesecake and brownies - absolute hit with all our guests.The staff was phenomenal and quick to also resolve and concerns we had. Have already recommended this venue to a couple brides and will keep recommending ❤️
This venue was an absolute dream. Naturally beautiful, spacious, with an amazing staff, you will not regret getting married here. Stephanie and Victoria are superstar event managers who go above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. They have a great selection of delicious dinner menus, scrumptious desserts, and great alcohols. We could not be happier with their hosting our wedding!
Loved that everything was done through little america. The food was amazing!!
Stephanie made the entire planning experience and wedding day absolutely seamless and unforgettable. I am so thankful to Little America for being the best host for our wedding, stunning location and so many wonderful staff members!

AW, thank you so much Rachel. Loved being a part of your special day. It was beautiful!!!
Everything about this venue was perfect. Stephanie Goodman, the Event Manager, made sure every detail of the ceremony outside, to the reception in the Flagstaff room was covered. As the Mother of the Bride, the confidence I had in Stephanie and the Little America staff allowed me to thoroughly enjoy the whole event without worrying that something needed to be done. The comments from all our guests was "perfection". Highly recommend Little America Flagstaff for your wedding and reception. It was perfect!

Thank you so much having your daughters wedding with us. It was a beautiful day and I greatly enjoyed working with you all!
Little America is an incredible venue. I’d hold another event here just to work with Stephanie again! Leading up to the event, Stephanie was transparent about details, easy to communicate with, and extremely flexible. Each part of our wedding was on time, the food was delicious (& the portions HUGE), and staff were professional. It’s also extremely convenient that the guests can stay on-site. 100% recommend!!!
Response from the Vendor on 07/20/2022
Thank you so much for your kind words! It was a pleasure working with you both and being a part of your wedding!
Our wedding at Little America turned out to be everything that we wanted and more. Stephanie was a great asset throughout the wedding planning process and especially the day of the wedding. We would highly recommend choosing this venue to celebrate your special day!

Thank you so much Sabrina for your kind words and letting us be a part of your special day! I loved working with you both!! Wishing you two the best!
Stephanie, the event coordinator at the hotel, was amazing! She helped us plan our dream wedding in Flagstaff, AZ. She was punctual, responsive, organized, and attentive during the entire process. We are so appreciative!
Response from the Vendor on 06/29/2022
Thank you so much Teresa. It was such a pleasure working with you and Brian. Gorgeous wedding and I cannot wait to see the photos! Wishing you two the best!
We could not recommend The Little America and especially Stephanie more. She was fantastic and helpful, approachable and honest, and she was a crucial part of making our day so amazing - we literally could not have pulled it off without her. She was supportive and gave us realistic timelines and options every step of the way. She made sure we had everything we needed through every step of planning and stayed cool and collected even during our stressful times. Seriously, HIGHLY recommend!

AWW Carlie, thank you so much for your kind words. I LOVED working with you two too! It was a beautiful day and your photos are gorgeous! Hope you both are doing well!
We chose Little America for our guests to stay at and the location for our rehearsal dinner. We were absolutely blown away with the services that were given to us. Stephanie was our event coordinator and she was absolutely amazing! She was great at communicating with us and understanding exactly what we wanted and was very flexible. She made it so easy for guest to book rooms and helped us with specific accommodations that had to be made. Little America was so beautiful and it was the perfect place for our event!

Thank you so much Ellen. It was such a pleasure being a part of your and Ian's wedding weekend!
This was only the second venue I saw and the first and last venue my husband saw. We fell in love with the landscape and background of the property. Our photographer and videographer were also so excited which made for amazing photos and video. Stephanie's personality sold us on booking our wedding here. Her warmth, yet professional disposition, lead us to believe that we could trust her with our big day. We were right! Most of our guests stayed 2 nights at the hotel as well and we all gathered in the bar area 2 nights in a row to hang out and chat and graze. We didn't plan on this originally, but everyone loved the ability to be close to their rooms but also enjoy everyone's company. The property is very clean and is not too quiet that it's eerie but not too loud that it's bothersome. When our baker forgot to delivered our cake, Stephanie magically made one appear. I couldn't be more grateful that we didn't miss out on that special moment and that's all because of her and the team. We also highly recommend Tanner with Groove Booking who DJs many weddings there. He was amazing! All in all we would hands down have our wedding here again and highly recommend it for people who are low key, low maintenance people.

Thank you so much for your kind words! You two were absolutely incredible to work with and your wedding was gorgeous! So happy that we were able to be a part of your special day! Wishing you both a lifetime of happiness!
While we did not choose Little America for our wedding, we were absolutely blown away on our tour! Stephanie Goodman, the wedding specialist was amazing, and so organized! The outdoor ceremony area was STUNNING and one of our favorites that we saw on our tours. If you choose Little America Flagstaff for your wedding, you will be in very good hands and will be very happy with what's included in the wedding package!

Thank you so much for your kind words, Sabrina. It was such a pleasure meeting you all!
As the parents of the bride, your first wedding can be (or should I say “will be”) a near overwhelming experience. The level of detail required on every aspect of the wedding is the make or break of a smooth day or designed disaster. Working with Little America gave us the sense of confidence that relieved much of that wedding planning stress. How did Little America assist us?
1: Experience: Little America has been hosting weddings since their construction decades ago. They have the ballrooms, kitchens and staff to support a wedding. They were able to work with us on color choices for tables and center pieces. There is a bridal suite and rooms for the bridal parties to gather, dress and get organized.
2: Expertise: Little America has a wedding planner to assist on the hundreds of details required to pull off the smooth execution of the wedding. It’s their experience that guided us through how much food and staff was required for the wedding of our particular size. The wedding planner was there at the rehearsal to guide through the staging of the processions and how to move people to the reception. The wedding planner was there to meet with the musician and DJ for proper set up and sound check. And the wedding planner was there to make sure the reception was running smoothly. He checked in with us continuously to make sure that any detail we wanted addressed would be immediately addressed.
3: Communication: Fear of the unknown is the greatest reservation. We met with the wedding planner to cover all our needs and address how Little America would make sure the day would run smooth and meet all our expectations. It’s through a contract that the expectations of both parties are laid out. We clearly understood our obligations, and the established expectations of Little America. The addendums to the contract of itemized pricing gave us a great sense of trust that we knew the expenses ahead of us and would not be blindsided.
4: Follow-up: After the wedding day, we were contacted to make sure every went well and the final accounting of the bar tab. We were asked for our input as to the experience and our satisfaction.
In conclusion, working with Little America on the wedding was an excellent experience. Their experience, expertise, communication and follow-up took a great level of stress of us and made for a wonderful weekend.

Melanie, thank you so much for the positive feedback and letting us be a part of your daughters wedding day! It was such a special time and we enjoyed working with you!
We had the pleasure of working with Stephanie Goodman on our wedding day at Little America. We were initially meant to have our wedding at Arizona Snowbowl, but unfortunately because of the fires, Snowbowl closed and we weren’t able to have it there anymore. Thankfully, Stephanie was able to get us into Little America on the same day, and she made sure that everything was just as it would have been at Snowbowl. She found out we would be having our wedding at Little America only 3 days beforehand, and she worked so hard to make sure that everything was as we wanted it. She was so flexible and willing to work with our requests without getting annoyed with us, and she put up with all of our indecisiveness at our rehearsal so kindly. Our wedding day ended up being amazing, and we’re so thankful to Stephanie for having such a big hand in making that happen. Little America as a venue is also so beautiful, and the food was great! We’d definitely recommend Little America for a wedding venue, and especially because you’ll be able to work with Stephanie!

Tessa,
Thank you so much for your kind words! It was such a pleasure working with you both. I was honored to be a part of your special day and wish you both all the best!
Sincerely,
Stephanie
We had our wedding here in July and it was great. The wedding coordinator that comes with the wedding package had a back up space ready in case of rain. Only problem I had was that they didn't have the ac on high enough in the reception room.
We had our wedding here at little america and the wedding coordinator was awful. You are required to use/pay for their wedding coordinator. She increased prices after we signed the contract and were getting close to the wedding date. She was very disrespectful and rude to me when I brought up any concerns that I had to the point of making me cry. I highly recommend going elsewhere for your wedding venue.
We chose the Little America Hotel for our wedding (ceremony and reception). The wedding turned out beautifully, but it wasn't as stress-free as we had hoped for. Brenda, the Wedding Coordinator, seemed confused, defensive, and/or vague when anyone asked her questions. As a bride, I want to worry about as little as possible, and I think Brenda might have forgotten that her job is to take the stress off of the bride. She seemed reluctant to do her job at times, and more than one person commented on how rude and clueless she was during the rehearsal and on the day of the wedding itself. She arrived on-site less than two hours before the ceremony and left before the reception ended. Thank goodness I had so many family and friends to ensure everything went smoothly. Beautiful venue and location though!
The hotel rooms are older, but nice. My husband and I stayed in the Forest View Honeymoon Suite the night of our wedding, and the view was breathtaking. It was a little pricey, and we probably would not have paid the money for this room had we not just gotten married.
It seemed to us that if a wedding venue wasn't ridiculously expensive it was either under appointed or we had a lot of questions about reliability of service and/or offerings. When we talked to Brenda at Little America our disillusion turned to excitement. Brenda put us at ease immediately and Little America had everything we needed as far as space, service and availability. If that had been all we would have been satisfied, but the food was incredible, the venue is beautiful and Brenda went the extra mile to make sure everything went perfect. The weather put the venue to test when a freak snow storm put the brakes on our outdoor ceremony. Brenda didn't miss a beat. The end to a perfect day included a honeymoon suite. I couldn't have asked for a better day snow and all.
We held our March 21, 2015 wedding ceremony and reception at the Little America in Flagstaff. It was beautiful! The setting is absolutely gorgeous, as are the ballrooms. The food (prime rib and Mediterranean chicken) was delicious! Brenda Naughton, the onsite event coordinator, is fantastic. She was exceptionally well organized and helped our wedding go off without a hitch! She worked with us to be sure we could serve the special beer we wanted. She even upgraded our honeymoon suite and surprised us with a bottle of sparkling wine and chocolate covered strawberries. The wedding could not have been better or run more smoothly- thank you, Brenda, and all the other wonderful staff at Little America!
