Hunter Mountain Route 23A • Hunter • New York 12442

Yes, both happen at Hunter Mountain, with a chairlift ride in between. Your ceremony is on the Summit Wedding Deck, a mountaintop spot with panoramic valley views that guests reach by chairlift, and your reception is at the base in the Kaatskill Mountain Club, which holds up to 280 guests. The Summit Wedding Deck is open for weddings from wildflower season through peak fall foliage, and there are several other outdoor spots on the property for ceremonies too.

For food and drink, you'll use Hunter Mountain's own team: catering and alcohol are both handled in-house, so you can't bring in an outside caterer or your own bar. Wedding menus run $150–210 per person and cover hors d'oeuvres, salad, entrées, coffee and tea, and a 5-hour hosted bar, with the resort's staff and bartenders working your event.
