Unique Venue Spaces to Make Yours

Pavilion

The Pavilion is where your reception dinner and party can take place. To make it easy for you, Monarch Valley Weddings will help create a floor plan and we’ll set up our tables and chairs before the start of your rental—so you can start decorating as soon as you arrive for your wedding weekend. The layout of tables, vendors, and your decorations is flexible.

Lodge

The Lodge has 5 bedrooms. Every bedroom has its own full/private bathroom. Each of the bedrooms has two beds. That makes for a total of 10 beds and 5 bathrooms in the Lodge. There is also a full kitchen, dining area, couch area, and an area for hair and makeup. It’s so convenient to have the whole venue as your backyard!

Lawns and Gardens

The lawns and gardens are filled with a variety of picturesque spots. Most wedding ceremonies are outside (at one of two outdoor location options). Ceremonies inside the Pavilion or off-site are rare, but are an option!

Plenty of Time

Three days and two nights to make yours. Wedding venue rentals are from 10 am on Friday to 3 pm on Sunday so you can enjoy each moment!

Sweet Freedom

You’ll have freedom to choose any type of food vendors, supply your own choice of bar drinks, and decorate however you’d like. There is no curfew or other unnecessary restrictions.

Helpful Owners

Before you arrive on the Friday of your rental, Monarch Valley Weddings will have set up our inventory to your unique floor plan and ceremony preferences. On Saturday, we’ll check public trash cans and bathrooms regularly. Once you leave, we’ll take down our own inventory and do all of the cleaning for you.
