If I could give Loralei Inn more than 5 stars, I absolutely would.
From the very beginning, Lora was so much more than a venue owner. She was a planner, coordinator, problem-so...
lver, and a calming presence throughout the entire wedding process. She helped guide us through countless decisions, answered every question, and made what could have been a stressful experience feel so manageable.
On our wedding day, everything flowed seamlessly. I’m sure there were little hiccups behind the scenes—as there always are with weddings—but if there were, I never knew about them. Lora handled everything so effortlessly that Michael and I were able to be completely present and enjoy every single moment with our family and friends. That is such an incredible gift.
The venue itself is absolutely beautiful, and every detail came together better than I could have imagined. The flowers were stunning, the food was phenomenal, and every vendor exceeded our expectations. Everything met our vision—and honestly surpassed it.
If you’re looking for a venue where you can truly trust that you’re in good hands, Loralei Inn is it. Lora genuinely cares about her couples and pours her heart into making each wedding special. Looking back, I wouldn’t change a single thing about our day, and so much of that is because of her and the incredible team at Loralei Inn.
Thank you, Lora, for giving us the most perfect wedding day. We’ll treasure those memories forever.
We had the most beautiful wedding weekend at the Loralei Inn in November of 2025! The venue is absolutely stunning, with 360 degree mountain views. All our guests raved about how b...
eautiful the setting was. I wanted a fall wedding in the mountains and they more than delivered everything I was hoping for!
Lora and her team planned our event for us, which was a great help. They found the vendors and initiated contact between them. I just shared the vision and they helped it come to life!
We were able to do the rehearsal dinner at the Loralei Inn as well, and had people stay the entire weekend on site which was a huge help. The bridesmaids stayed overnight and got ready on site in the bridal suite. There is plenty of parking on site. Every detail was taken care of. Would 1000% recommend the Loralei Inn for anyone in the area looking for an amazing wedding venue run by down to earth people! :)

I’m not sure where to start with my review on the Loralei Inn. My new husband & I couldn’t be more thankful & blessed to have hosted our wedding here in June of 2024. The care and ...
professional you’ll experience here is unlike any other wedding venue. Lora (owner, coordinator, planner) is hands down the best woman in the world & I couldn’t have pulled off a more amazing wedding without her. From the first day I toured this venue & met Lora, it was a match made in Heaven. The venue itself is one right out of a mountain fairytale. You have 360 degree views of the mountains at every turn. The landscaping & greenery is the perfect focal point for any occasion. The rooms are immaculate for getting ready in & staying the weekend in! You will never need or want for anything if you host your wedding here. Her vendors are also amazing- florist, catering, rentals, bartenders, etc. Lora has become a second mama bear, a best friend, and forever family.
What can I say - this venue was absolutely perfect for our wedding! Not only is the house and property just absolutely stunning on its own along with beautiful mountain views, we t...
ruly felt like we became part of the family! Lora was our mama for the wedding process - she had only our best interest at heart and worked incredibly hard to make sure we had the best possible day. One of the huge advantages of this venue is the ability to rent out the house for days! My family was able to stay on site for the whole weekend, which specifically made my parents, grandma, and 8-month pregnant sister so happy! Everyone raved about how beautiful the venue/wedding was!
