Learn everything you need to know about having your wedding at this one-of-a-kind Tahoe wedding venue.
Venues at The Olympic Valley Stables
The Olympic Valley Stables consists of four acres of untouched historic land in a deep valley. Once a fully operational horse riding stable, the property is now solely an event venue, restored to accommodate weddings without losing its charming character. As a “blank-slate” venue, there are endless possibilities when it comes to customizing the space for your wedding.
Bridal and Groom Wedding Lounges
Get ready for your wedding day off-site or onsite with the use of The Olympic Valley Stables’ on-site bridal changing lounge as a comfortable break and touch-up room throughout the day. The ladies’ lounge is nicely decorated with cute mirrors, dress racks, couches, and a refreshment station. The men's lounge is equipped with a full-size bar and a chill area to kick up your boots.
4 Acres of Green and Golden Meadow
The Olympic Valley Stables’ main ceremony space is the expansive meadow that can accommodate up to 300 guests. This fully outdoor space is a blank canvas with mountain backdrops all around. It is an ideal location for a bohemian-chic or rustic wedding style. Adorn the space with a triangle wedding arch, breathtaking florals, and seating for all your loved ones for a large and luxurious wedding.
Tented Reception with Mountain Views
The Olympic Valley Stables offers a complimentary white reception tent and lighting in the tent for the wedding reception. This provides ample coverage for your friends and family while you dine, drink, and dance the night away. Bring in your favorite lawn games and antique furniture for your guests to enjoy in the meadow during the cocktail hour. Then, gather under the tent to hear toasts from loved ones, share a delicious meal, and get down in their on-site barn with a late-night silent disco party!
Rustic Barn for the Afterparty
At The Olympic Valley Stables, the party doesn’t have to end after the reception. Continue celebrating your love with friends and family in the venue’s elegant and rustic barn, ideal for an intimate afterparty. You can also use the barn for your wedding rehearsal dinner if you choose the two-day wedding venue package.
Services at The Olympic Valley Stables
All packages for The Olympic Valley Stables are for the venue site only, which includes the reception tent, lighting, wedding arena, rustic barn, and on-site bridal changing rooms. From there, you can choose your favorite vendors and rentals to bring the space to life. As one of the preferred wedding planners for The Olympic Valley Stables, we’ve planned countless events at this venue and know everything you need to transform the space. From the best rentals and decor to the logistics of heaters to keep your guests warm in the evening to portable restrooms, we take the blank canvas and bring your wedding vision to life.
Because The Olympic Valley Stables is not an all-inclusive venue, it’s essential to understand what’s required to transform the space for a wedding. All vendors and rentals must be outsourced, increasing the overall cost. Keep this in mind when planning your Lake Tahoe wedding at The Stables. Here’s a brief list of what you’ll need to arrange the space yourself (or with the help of your Lake Tahoe wedding planner!).
