From the moment we toured the Sterling we knew that we wanted to have our wedding here. From the beautiful ceremony area outside on the pond to the beautiful indoor reception area it really is just an absolutely stunning place, butwhat really stood out about this venue were the people that worked there from the coordinators to the kitten staff to the bartenders everyone clearly had one goal in mind which was to make our day truly special. Which they absolutely did and more. We had the privilege of working with Marissa as our lead coordinator and it was very obvious that she was made for this job. She was quick to respond to all of our emails throughout over 16 months of planning. She made sure all our concerns went away as fast as possible, and every question that we ever could think of got answered right away. She had no problem offering suggestions, but more importantly just listening to what we want and making it happen. Marissa and her team never made us feel like we were annoying them with questions or asking anything silly, which really meant a lot for us. On the day of the wedding everyone came up to us expressing how they were having a great time. The bar staff was amazing and no one was waiting for drinks. The cocktail hour was great, and then the dinner entrees were amazing as well. If you want a venue where you feel like you are prioritized and everyone there just wants to make sure you have a special time this is the place for you. It also helps when the venue is stunning. There is an awesome groomsmen and bridesmaids suites to get ready in. Lastly, this venue offers a comfortable environment for people of all ages during the reception time. Meaning there’s an active Dancefloor area, an outdoor area, and indoor area to lounge inside for some of the older folks. I cannot recommend this venue, and the people who work here enough. An absolute dream day!

The Sterling was the second venue we looked at and fell in love immediately with the mixed indoor and outdoor space. Tanya Sue and Eric took a three hour conversation and turned into the wedding of our dreams - probably better than we ourselves had imagined. The team, rounded out by Alexis and Netasha, were responsive, professional, and honest about what is feasible and what is far-fetched. Their kindness and dedication to our needs and wants was somsething extra special.
Eric reverse reciped a few cultural dishes from our parents so that we did not have to cater them. At the tasting, my parents were boasting about how, with even a few twists, the dishes tasted authentic. The chef’s experience traveling the world and willingness to work with us is something we cannot ignore or stop revelling about.
On the day of our wedding, surprise rain derailed our plans to get married outside and we had to move our ceremony indoors. Tanya Sue was kind and patient with us as we changed our original plan. It stung a bit to make a last minute change, but the Sterling team created an atmosphere where our attention was in t he moment and not thinking about what could have been. The ceremony was perfect. The day was perfect. Everything was perfect.
Highly recommend trusting this team with your dream wedding. Guarantee it will turn out beyond your imagination.

iful, and the amount of attention to detail throughout the entire venue was incredible. Every little touch felt intentional and made our day feel so special.
The entire team truly went above and beyond to make our wedding everything we dreamed of. A huge thank you to our wedding coordinator, Shannon, who was absolutely amazing! She was so attentive, organized, helpful, and genuinely cared about making our day perfect. She understood my vision from the very beginning and somehow brought it to life even better than I could have imagined.
Because of Shannon and the entire Sterling team, we were able to relax and truly enjoy our wedding day without worrying about all the little details happening behind the scenes. Everything was beautiful, seamless, and exactly what we had envisioned.
The Sterling at Arrowhead will always hold such a special place in our hearts. We are beyond grateful that we chose this venue and would recommend it to anyone looking for the perfect wedding venue. It truly exceeded all of our expectations! 🤍

We were the first couple to use the venue after the fire, but The Sterling went above and beyond to make our day spectacular.
Staff: We loved working with Tanya Sue as part of t...
he white glove package, and felt like every detailed was attended to. She was very prompt at responding my questions, and I never felt like I was left in the dark. The rest of the staff was great during the actual wedding and did a wonderful job setting up the venue just as I had envisioned.
Food: You know the food hit the spot when you take a bite of everything, look at each other, and give each other a thumbs up! During the tasting, we asked for some substitutions/alterations to the buffet, and they were executed perfectly on the day of the wedding. I think the only criticism I received was that the food was very dry for the last table that got served--we were trying to avoid this via the buffet, but otherwise everyone else raved about the food being one of the best wedding foods they've had. I think it's just an unfortunate consequence of food being under the warmer for too long. Oh, and everyone loved the late night snacks--I would comment on the taste, but by the time we noticed they had been served everyone had eaten them already. They were definitely a hit!
Venue: What you see in the pictures looks just as good in real life! My guests had a lot of fun with the outdoor games and roaming through the venue. I saw quite a lot of people take pictures on the island during golden hour, and heard someone say, "Guys, let's go outside, it's actually so nice out there." There were plenty of beautiful spots for photos--I didn't even know there was a tree swing, but that's one of my favorite pictures of the wedding!
Fire: Honestly, a lot of my guests didn't even know there had been a fire. We were a bit trepidatious when we walked in that morning because there was still soot and ash EVERYWHERE, but by 3PM everything had been cleared up and the second floor (which received the most fire damage) was skillfully draped over. I think I also just lucked out when I decided last minute I wanted a signature scent, so the candles successfully masked most of the smoky smell. To make up for the lack of a bridal suite at the venue, we went and used the suite at the Timberlodge and also received complimentary snacks (more than we could eat!) throughout the day.
Cost: This was the pricier out of the two venues we narrowed down to, but I think it's totally worth it (the husband was stressing over the price, but even he admitted it was worth it after the wedding). The food, ambience, space, service, and swift accommodations in the setting of an unexpected disaster more than made up for the cost.
Summary: the wedding played out just as I had envisioned it. I would recommend the Sterling to any couple who is looking for a venue in the area, they'll make your special day a dream come true!

From the very beginning, Tanya Sue was absolutely amazing! She was so fun, kind, organized, and incredibly easy to work with. She made the entire planning process feel stress-free and truly cared about making sure our wedding day was perfect.
On our wedding day, she went above and beyond in every way. She made sure everything ran so smoothly, stayed for most of the night to make sure everything was going perfectly, and was always checking in to see if we needed anything. She even brought drinks to the bridal suite right when we needed them! She also worked with our photographer to help us get some amazing photos that we’ll treasure forever.
Tanya Sue made us feel so taken care of, and because of her we were able to relax and enjoy every single moment of our day. We truly can’t thank her enough for everything she did. She helped make our wedding an absolute dream, and we couldn’t recommend her and The Sterling at Arrowhead more! Thank you, Tanya Sue, for making the BEST. DAY. EVER. even more perfect!!

I had my wedding at The Sterling on July 10, 2026, and I can honestly say it was everything I dreamed of—and more. Six weeks before my wedding I received the news that the venue ha...
d caught fire. To say I was worried that my wedding might not happen there is an understatement. The Monday after the fire, Jason Spain personally reached out to me. He immediately gave me his cell phone number and told me to contact him anytime I had a question or concern. From that moment on, he became my lifeline throughout the entire process. Whenever I felt overwhelmed or started to doubt whether everything would come together, Jason was there to reassure me, answer my questions, and help me stay calm. His communication, compassion, and commitment were truly exceptional. On the wedding day, Shannon, my white-glove coordinator, was absolutely incredible. She made sure every single detail was handled flawlessly so that I could simply enjoy the day. Everything ran seamlessly, and I never once had to worry about a thing. Jason was also there throughout the day, personally ensuring that everything was perfect. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine care did not go unnoticed. My mom and I are not easy customers—we have high expectations and pay attention to every detail. The Sterling team didn’t just meet those expectations; they exceeded them in every possible way. Their service was first-class, their hospitality was unmatched, and they handled an incredibly difficult situation with grace and professionalism. Despite everything that happened leading up to our wedding, if I could do it all over again, I would still choose The Sterling without hesitation. They turned what could have been a nightmare into the most beautiful and memorable day of our lives. A heartfelt thank you to the entire Sterling team for making our wedding so special, especially Jason Spain, Shannon, Tanya, and everyone who worked tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure our day was absolutely perfect.

questions and needs! She checked in with us and constantly communicated especially right before the wedding, which I greatly appreciated. The venue itself is stunning, with a spacious bridal suite and the island which was perfect for our ceremony. We got lucky and it didn’t rain! The staff was excellent and catered to our every need throughout the day. Our reception was indoors and the food exceeded our expectations! The Marry Me chicken and the Aged Cheddar Mac and Cheese were the clear favorites. Overall, it was our dream wedding venue and we couldn’t be happier with how the day turned out. They executed my wedding vision perfectly. If you’re looking for a wedding venue definitely go with The Sterling. You won’t be disappointed!

From the moment my fiance and I stepped onto the property, we were greeted with the biggest smile from the first person that was bringing us into the first lodge and making sure we...
met the head director of sales who is Krystle. She was nothing short of sweet, spunk and character! She toured us through both properties being sure to answer any and all questions and we were blown away by how both venues were absolutely stunning! We were on a tight budget, and being 2 engaged people in our early thirties feeling very overwhelmed! Krystle made sure we were taking it all in and that not all dreams are off the table! We told her exactly what we wanted and we feel in love with the sterling venue. She sat down with us after a wonderful tour and did all the numbers. During this time we shared some family stories, hard times, smiles , and of course talked about our vision for the wedding! This is when the second women came to join (Maggie) she greeted us with a smile, handed Krystle the papers and it was time to talk numbers. When these ladies spun around the spread sheets, I literally burst into tears!! They had made sure we stayed within our budget and we were over turned with joy! We booked right on the spot! We all cried together as it hit that I was finally going to have a wedding date!! I could go on forever. The love and care I felt in that moment will forever be my most cherished memory!! If you’re considering seeing the venues… BOOK THE TOUR! you won’t be dissapointed! Thank you so much to all the staff we met that day at the Sterling, everyone was so sweet and eager to share the excitement! We cant wait for our wedding!

That said, they treat you like they are the only wedding on their mind, which is exactly what we wanted. I recommend this venue for anyone looking to have an unforgettable experience. I have had MULTIPLE guests say that this wedding was one of the best if not the best wedding they have been to. They offer a variety of options that you can pick from that allow you to personalize what best suites your desires. Great place, Great team, would recommend to anyone looking to have an unforgettable wedding.

ove package. Just having someone to coordinate with my vendors the week of the wedding and taking that off my plate made wedding week a BREEZE. The day of was stress free as Shannon and my vendors took care of everything behind the scenes. Shannon Mowry is the most amazing human I have ever met. She was so attentive the day of the wedding - to not just us, but to our whole wedding party. She went above and beyond and even drove a golf cart to help my mom get to the locations for pictures. Following the ceremony, she was there with a celebratory drink in hand for us. I cannot say enough amazing things about Shannon - she alone was worth every penny we spent.

The BBQ Meatballs & Beer Braised Brisket are both an in-house favorite too, we're so glad you enjoyed them.

nd I got engaged and started touring wedding venues. The Sterling was the first placed we looked and we fell in love immediately. We held our ceremony out on the island, the reception indoors, with the dance floor outside in the covered portion. We worked with the lead coordinator, Tanya Sue, who was so helpful in making sure we had everything together for our special day! She met with us in person and we went over a detailed outline of everything you would need the day of. This was a huge help and took a lot of the stress off. She was great with communication- she encouraged us to reach out with any questions or concerns and replies were fairly quick! We did the food tasting and it was just incredible- guests mentioned how much they enjoyed dinner afterwards. The day of, Tanya was there with us running around making sure everything was taken care of. She coordinated with all the other vendors and queued the wedding party when it was time to walk down the aisle. She communicated with us throughout the night and stayed until the end. If it wasn’t for her, the day would have been a mess! The most unique part of our day was the first dance on the catwalk above all of our guests. It was so cool- really made the pictures look incredible. I would really recommend to have your special day here, you won’t have any regrets!!!

She was on top of things and was never afraid to step in and take control to keep things flowing and keep our special day stress-free.

As my first wedding anniversary is around the corner, I am feeling nostalgic and know I am long overdue for a review of our experience at the Sterling. This was the first venue we ...
toured, and from the moment we stepped foot on the property, we knew it was the one... (literally.. we had other venue tours booked that day that we cancelled). The venue is breathtaking and truly one of a kind. We knew we wanted an indoor/outdoor area so our guests didn't feel crammed all in one place, and the sterling gave us just that. From the island, to the multiple patios, the balcony and options for both indoor and outdoor seating, there was plenty of space for our guests to spread out and move around.
The team at the Sterling made the planning process as simple as possible. We had our planning meeting with Paige who was beyond phenomenal to work with and truly put my mind at ease, answering every question we had and reassuring us that the day would go smoothly. I am a very type A bride and had a very specific vision that the team brought to life exactly as I'd have hoped. We paid for the white glove package, which I highly recommend. This gave us a coordinator and we also didn't have to worry about decor breakdown. Our original coordinator left the company and we very last minute were placed with Kayla. I cannot say enough great things about her. For being added to our wedding on such short notice she caught up to speed and made sure the day went exactly as I had wanted it to (even stepped into the role of makeup artist when my makeup got ruined during my first look.)
Our guests could not stop raving about the atmosphere of this venue, as well as the delicious food. Out of every wedding I have ever been to- the sterling's food was by FAR the best. They have an amazing drink selection, and we added the high noon bar to our drink package, which was a huge hit with all of our guests.
Our whole day was planned out perfectly and exactly as I envisioned it. This venue is absolutely worth every penny, and I cannot recommend it enough.

food was delicious! It was such an easy decision to have our wedding there.
We worked with a few different people throughout this process, and everyone was so helpful, kind and attentive! I especially have to shout out Courtney, who really went above and beyond on our wedding day! She provided much needed guidance and assurance on where to hold our ceremony. I hadn't even thought of having our ceremony on the catwalk and was hesitant at first, but it truly was the best decision I could have made!
I really could not have asked for a better wedding experience! The Sterling and its team are a dream to work with!

This was the first venue we toured, and after seeing the Sterling, we knew right away it was the one for us. We didn’t even feel the need to visit any other venues! The tour was incredibly smooth, and the booking process couldn’t have been easier. Krystle went above and beyond, providing us with so much additional information that we’ll definitely need for our big day.
We’re beyond excited for our wedding at the Sterling and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a stunning venue with exceptional service. 10/10 would recommend!

Hosting our wedding at The Sterling was an absolute dream! It was the perfect venue for our special day, and we loved the experience. When we first toured the venue, we were blown ...
away by its beauty, and we knew it would be perfect. After we booked, we were connected with Tanya, who ended up being our day-of coordinator, and she made the whole planning process so easy! Tanya was responsive and helpful along the way, and made sure we had all of the details and information needed while making decor selections, menus, timelines etc.
One thing that we appreciated most about The Sterling is their offerings regarding their included amenities. Since we live out of state and wanted a streamlined planning process, The Sterling was perfect for our needs. We were very appreciative of all of the included decor, tableware, seating choices, center pieces and more. They made everything so easy for us.
We received so many compliments about the venue from our friends and family; the venue was so loved by all! All of our vendors had nothing but great things to say about The Sterling and were very excited about another wedding at this venue.
Thank you to Tanya and the team at The Sterling for helping us plan our most special day!

Everything with The Sterling was amazing! I truly have no complaints. From touring, booking, all the way up to my wedding day, the planning process was super easy. The in-house foo...
d was amazing. Don’t worry about not being able to bring in an outside caterer, their chefs do an amazing job. The night of my wedding a few guests came up to me to tell me how great the food was and that I had “the wedding of the year!” I had no anxiety over anything potentially going wrong because I was confident with how my coordinator and other employees there would handle everything. My biggest worry was just walking down the aisle and having people look at me! My coordinator was Stephanie and she was amazing too. She responded to all my emails very thoroughly and quickly which is something super important to me, as well as many other brides. As someone who is a perfectionist and pays a lot of attention to detail, I felt 110% comfortable handing things off to Stephanie if need be. I know she would do it right. She was very attentive to me and my husband the whole night of our wedding checking in on us, making sure everything was going as we had hoped, and made sure my glass of diet coke was never empty lol. I would also fully recommend the white glove package that they have, as it takes a lot of work and stress off of the brides shoulders. The other employees at The Sterling fully set up the reception area with my decor, as well as packed everything up for me at the end of the night. Everyone was super kind and attentive. It is very very expensive to have your wedding here, but I would say the price matches the services you receive. I hope to be able to come back to The Sterling one day to experience a wedding there as guest!

As a Type-A bride, I had every detail planned. The team at The Sterling made sure to take every piece of information I gave them and execute the day perfectly. From trusting them with certain decoration choices, to making day-of changes due to weather, to keeping us informed along the way, I felt so at ease throughout the entire process. Every part of this venue is beautiful, and you can tell how much care everyone puts into their work. The bartenders kept up with our guests all night long, and the food was honestly the BEST wedding food I've ever had. It was incredible to have the venue, food, and drinks all organized by the same team. The Sterling is absolutely worth every penny.

We worked with Tanya Sue who was just excellent! When we weren't sure of a detail, she was always ready and willing to problem solve, was always available when we had questions, and really eased us into all of the planning details that can be overwhelming. She was with us on the day making sure everything was going smoothly and I truly believe the day would not have been as perfect without her help! On the actual day, the staff was attentive and fantastic with our guests. They even served us drinks as we walked back from the ceremony & made sure me and my husband were able to have all of the food that was offered since we were busy visiting with guests, it was awesome! The food and drinks were fantastic as well. We did the white glove package which was worth it 100 times over especially with set up, break down, and the perks that are included! We didn't provide much direction for decor and tablescapes which comes out absolutely beautiful! 10/10!

Our wedding at The Sterling was an absolute DREAM. From day one we were beyond impressed with this venue. Maggie led us on a tour of the venue and thoroughly explained everything. ...
Right from the start, we could feel her excitement for us and she was beyond amazing at answering any questions that we had. We knew this was the place where our dream wedding could become reality. Tanya was our coordinator and she was honestly beyond amazing. Words truly don't describe how detail oriented and hard working she is. She communicated with us regularly and was so beyond sweet and thoughtful at all times. Leading up to the wedding day, Tanya was always willing to answer any questions we had, big or small. She did an amazing job hosting our Rehearsal and made sure we were all set to go for the wedding day. What really impressed me most about Tanya was her ability to ensure we had a proper timeline for our day and keep the day running smoothly. We had a lot of moving parts to our day, including sharing a first look, island ceremony, a cigar bar, an ice cream truck, fireworks, and sparklers. Tanya made a timeline to ensure we had time to do everything we wanted to do. At our planning meeting, we could feel Tanya's excitement for us and could tell how important it was to her that our wedding day ran smoothly. So many of our guests complimented how great the food was and how hard the staff was working.
Many things stood out to us about the place in general as well as our coordinator but our favorite detail was as soon as we got married and exited the island from our ceremony, Tanya was standing right there waiting with our signature cocktails for us, it was such a nice surprise. She made sure every last detail was perfect for us. The venue is truly so beautiful from the bridal suite/groomsmen suite, to the island ceremony, and the outside dance floor. From the food, to the staff, to the grounds, this place is an absolute dream. I would 100% wholeheartedly recommend this venue to anyone! Our day ran so smoothly and was everything I imagined and more.

Our wedding at The Sterling was beautiful and we were so happy with it. Hannah was an amazing coordinator and did a great job of making the day flow nicely and helping to calm down...
a nervous bride.
I did take off a star because we told them that, even if it snowed, we wanted to take pictures outside. Nothing was shoveled or salted and our photographers had to create a trail for us to walk down and kicked away ice that was on the stairs.
Also, look over your invoices with a fine toothed comb! While Hannah was out on vacation, someone else was helping us with our final payment. We told them we wanted the less expensive bar option, and they tried charging us for the more expensive option instead. Also, we originally planned to get married outside, but had to move the ceremony inside on the day of. Thankfully I remembered that the pricing is less expensive to have it inside, because we were never refunded the difference until I reached out and asked them about it.
Aside from that, we had a wonderful time at The Sterling. The food and drinks were excellent and the venue itself was stunning!

You two & your video/photo team made the absolute best of it and the final product did not disappoint! I take full responsibility for the bar package not being updated, something I missed after you mentioned you wanted to change your package. Human error at its best lol. So glad that you reached out about your refund on the ceremony! We apologize for not issuing the refund immediately as that is our standard protocol.
We take your feedback very seriously and we are always looking to improve for our future couples. Again, thank you so much for allowing us to be a part of your big day!

Where do we even begin? The Sterling Team has gone ABOVE and BEYOND to make our wedding day THE BEST ever! Michael and the team were very responsive, helpful, and made every part...
of our wedding (including the planning stages for a full year ahead of our special day) so easy and very stress-free. If we had to do it all over again, we would DEFINITELY choose The Sterling. There was not one part of our day that we had to worry or stress because the team is just that great and on top of everything! They were kind, respectful, willing to do anything we asked, and just great people to work with! Our guests were truly impressed by the staff as well. If you want the best wedding ever, check out The Sterling! You will not regret one thing about the AMAZING team or venue! Thank you Michael and The Sterling Team! -Sam and Mike

We just had our wedding at the Sterling and nothing could have been more perfect! Highlight of this venue was our coordinator Hannah. She communicated with me frequently throughout...
the planning process and was always available for the million questions I had. By the end she was more of friend than a coordinator and I wish I could plan a wedding with her every year! Another highlight is that they’re familiar with a lot of vendors and can communicate with them on your behalf. The venue is beautiful, the service was great, the food was delicious. I don’t know of a single guest of mine that didn’t have a great time!

Victoria & Parker- Getting to know you two throughout the process was such a pleasure! We ...
really did consider you more of a friend than a client by the end of it all. It was such an honor being a part of your big day and we would 10000% plan your anniversary party every year from here on out LOL! Cheers to you two and a lifetime of love and happiness! Love, Hannah and The Sterling Team

We had the most incredible experience getting married at the Sterling. First of all, the venue itself is stunning and the staff, especially our wedding day coordinator, Hannah, was...
phenomenal. Hannah was not our original coordinator as we had a switch about a month out from our date, but Hannah handled everything with such grace and kindness as she made my wedding day visions come to life seamlessly. She made the whole process effortless for my husband and I.
We intended to have our ceremony out on the island, but unfortunately it rained all day. Thankfully the Sterling had the covered patio that created the most beautiful, intimate ceremony which was the best alternate plan ever! The indoor space was incredible and the staff was very nice and efficient. The food and drinks were outstanding! Our guests could not stop raving about the food, drinks and venue itself.
We opted for the white glove package and I highly recommend it. I brought all of my decor the day of our rehearsal and the Sterling staff stored it very well and executed my visions beautifully. However, the best part was as the night ended, the staff took down all of the decor and put it back in the boxes. All we had to do was take the decor out of the building, I didn’t have to lift a finger! It was amazing!
Overall, we had the most amazing experience working with the Sterling and had the most perfect day.

LeighAnn & Steve- We loved being a part of your big day!! The whole day had a lot of last ...
minute alterations and you two were so sweet about everything as we tried to give you the most perfect day. Opting into the White Glove Package truly relieves the couple of so much responsibility and we are so happy you two were able to enjoy the most out of your day. Cheers to you two and a lifetime of happiness! Love, Hannah & The Sterling Team
