Stunning and unique venue that allows for a full weekend experience that includes rehearsal, dinner, welcome party, bonfire, quaint chapel ceremony, cocktail hour, large sit down reception and amazing send off! The staff becomes your family and the flowers by Henry are absolutely stunning!!

Chota Falls was truly the BEST wedding venue we could have asked for. Everyone who works there and runs this place is beyond accommodating and extremely helpful. They put their full effort into everything that they do and are like a big family (some of them related and actual family!). Lawanna is an amazing coordinator and knows how to run the day like the back of her hand. Carlos could not have been more helpful with set up and any and all questions on site. Henry is truly one of a kind - a great personality and gifted with florals. Arlene made the best wedding food I’ve ever had. The waterfall is gorgeous for the ceremony, the honeymoon suite is perfect, and all of the on site housing options made it possible for bridal party and family to be on site all weekend. The bonfire setup at night is also something to behold - a perfect end to two perfect nights.

Incredible place. At first glance didn't look like much. After seeing the entire place, I was blown away! Best wedding I've been to in years. Highly recommend you get married here and stay on the grounds if you go. You won't regret it!

Magical place. Great staff and beautiful scenery. The chapel is beautiful and so are the falls.

I got married at Chota in June 2025 and they made it the best (easiest) day of my life. The coordination, decor, and food were perfect! I told them my ideas and they turned it into gold. Pictures against the waterfall were perfect! Thank you Chota!

That wedding venue was hilarious in the best possible way—full of quirky charm and unexpected moments that kept us all laughing. But then you'd catch a glimpse of that waterfall, and suddenly it felt like we were in a dream. The mix of laughter and that jaw-dropping scenery? Pure magic. Total hidden gem. Still can’t believe a place that fun could also be that beautiful.

Our weekend at Chota Falls was picturesque. We were able to have a stress-free wedding weekend experience with our family and friends due to Chota Falls having beautiful on-site accommodations. We will forever be grateful for Henry's stunning floral arrangements and Arlene's delicious catering. The convenience of having our rehearsal dinner, wedding ceremony, and wedding reception all coordinated by one team made the planning process so much easier. Every detail was thoughtfully executed, and the setting itself was breathtaking. We will forever be grateful for everyone at Chota Falls who helped our wedding weekend be such a wonderful experience!

Mike & Megan
I didn’t have to stress When my husband got transferred to Michigan for work, our big day became a destination wedding for us! Lawanna and Henry were so great. They worked with us from a distance, and made me feel like everything would be exactly like I requested, and it was. We had the ceremony in the beautiful chapel, and it was amazing. The reception was so much fun and went exactly as planned. Henry did such a great job on the flowers and decor. I didn’t have to stress about what was going to happen when. Lawanna and Henry had everything taken care of, and all we had to do was enjoy the moment, and we did! Thank you so much to everyone at Chota Falls for making our wedding such an amazing, wonderful, fun, stress-free experience!!!!

Tim and Terri
Thank you again from the bottom of my heart for making my sister’s wedding the day she wanted and dreamed it to be. It is beautiful [at Chota] in every way.
Valarae
A once-in-a-lifetime fairy tale! It’s been a year today since Amber and Steve’s unbelievable wedding. I’m sure at least once a week, I look at some of the pictures and remember. Chota Falls is truly a magical place and the wonderful memories we have are deeply embedded in our hearts. Lawanna, Henry, Steffi and Laura helped to make this a time in our lives we will never forget. Even the little ones who turn 6 this month still talk about being flower girls in Amber and Steve’s wedding, and wish they could go back. A once-in-a-lifetime fairy tale! Thanks again to all of you who helped to make this one of the most cherished time in our lives
