Total budget is a key part of wedding planning, and we want to help you set realistic expectations. On average, peak season couples at Vezalay Mountain Venue typically spend between $27,000-$37,000 on their total wedding expenses, while non-peak season couples may spend around $20,000-$30,000.
That said, every wedding is unique—your budget is completely up to you! We’ve seen couples keep costs lower with smaller guest counts and dates during the week, while others choose to invest more in their dream wedding experience. No matter your vision, we’re here to help you create a day that feels just right for you.
Yes! While our vendor list features professionals we know and trust—who have experience working at Vezalay Mountain Venue—we do allow outside vendors as long as they are professional, licensed, and insured.
There are just two exceptions to keep in mind:
Bar Service – If alcohol is being served, you’ll need to select a bar service package from our exclusive bar provider, Everlasting Events. (Both The Classic & Luxe package already have one of these included)
Outside Caterers – If you choose a caterer that is not on our vendor list, a $550 kitchen fee will be added to your booking.
We want you to have the flexibility to bring in vendors that align with your vision while ensuring a seamless experience for your wedding day! If you are unsure about a particular vendor, the best thing to do is ask us before booking with them to ensure there aren't any issues.
If the weather doesn’t cooperate, you’ll be so glad you chose Vezalay!
We have a beautiful indoor chapel that serves as a dedicated ceremony space, meaning there’s no need for a room flip—your reception setup remains untouched and ready to go.
For the short walk from the chapel to the reception space, we provide plenty of umbrellas for your guests’ comfort. And if cocktail hour was planned for the patio, no worries—it will seamlessly move indoors while still maintaining the flow of your celebration.
Rain or shine, your wedding at Vezalay will be just as magical!
Since we host only one wedding per day, our pricing remains the same whether you choose to have your ceremony, reception, or both at Vezalay Mountain Venue.
Yes, dogs are allowed on property for pre-ceremony photos and/or the ceremony itself, with advanced approval. Dogs must be leashed, accompanied by someone at all times and taken off property after the ceremony.
Yes, we do! But when comparing venues, it's important to understand that not all coordination services are the same. At Vezalay, we provide professional day-of coordination through our sister company, Everlasting Events, ensuring a seamless and stress-free wedding day.
Our coordination services begin 60 days before your wedding and include:
1 Kick-Off Call and 1 In-Person Meeting to go over all details
Custom floor plan and timeline creation to keep everything on track
Vendor communication to confirm logistics and final details
Full wedding day management, so you can relax and enjoy every moment
Best of all, this service is included in every package—because we believe every couple deserves expert coordination for their big day!
Your caterer plays a huge role in your wedding experience—delivering not just a meal, but a key part of your celebration. That’s why choosing a reliable, high-quality caterer is so important!
To make things easy, we have a preferred list of caterers who are familiar with our venue, follow our policies, and offer a variety of menu styles to fit different tastes and budgets. These trusted professionals ensure a seamless dining experience for you and your guests.
If you choose to bring in a caterer who is not on our list, a kitchen fee of $550 will be added to your invoice.
No. Our Classic and Luxe packages are not priced by guest count, giving you full flexibility. Each package includes floral and dessert allotments sized for an average wedding, with the Luxe package offering larger amounts for additional design or higher guest counts. If your guest count exceeds what’s included, you’re welcome to purchase extra servings or floral upgrades directly through the vendor.
No, catering is not included in our packages. With so many variables that impact catering costs—such as guest count, menu selections, and service style—we’ve chosen to leave it out to keep our pricing simple and flexible.
This allows you to choose a caterer that fits your budget and vision. We offer a preferred list of caterers who know our venue well and provide a range of options, or you’re welcome to bring in an outside caterer for a $550 kitchen fee. This way, you get exactly what you want for your wedding day dining experience!
The ideal ceremony start time depends on the season, lighting, and your overall wedding timeline (whether or not you are doing a first look). Here’s what we typically recommend at to ensure the best experience and most stunning photos:
Spring & Fall Weddings: Between 4:00–5:00 PM – Offers beautiful golden-hour lighting for portraits after the ceremony.
Summer Weddings: Between 5:00–6:00 PM – Keeps guests comfortable by avoiding the hottest part of the day while still capturing that dreamy evening glow.
Winter Weddings: Between 3:00–4:00 PM – Ensures there’s enough daylight for photos before the sun sets earlier.
We’re always happy to help customize your timeline based on your wedding vision, photographer’s recommendations, and seasonal sunset times!
All deliveries and pickups must happen during your venue rental period, Please plan accordingly and advise your vendors of this policy.
Yes, open flame candles are welcome as long as they are contained within a glass holder for safety.
We do not permit confetti, glitter, fake flower petals, or any other loose items that could create an excessive cleanup. We want your day to be beautiful and stress-free, and that includes keeping things tidy!
