Lake Guntersville State Park provides the perfect backdrop for your wedding and reception. Various locations, both indoor and exterior, offer a variety of settings. View our information and floor plan of spaces for weddings! Outdoor spaces accommodate an intimate wedding and a guest list of up to 150 people and offers panoramic views of the 69,000-acre Guntersville Reservoir. Interior spaces range from small to large, accommodating 10 to 500 people**, and marvel in majestic views and a rich elegant decor. Stately hotel rooms and suites are perfect for the bridal party to relax and unwind before the big day and also ideal as the location for your honeymoon. (**Please note that the number of people we can seat in each space varies based on menu selection and room set up needs.)

Planning and booking your event begins with our expert sales team. We work with you right until time for your wedding to make sure every detail is just as you expect. Our entire staff takes it from there and provides you with excellent service and fine dining. You just need to show up and have a great time!

We provide all catering services for your wedding with the exception of the cake. Please keep in mind that the groom's cake must be a cake. Any food item that we can prepare must be purchased through us. Menus range from items for a stand up reception, or a buffet spread, to a plated elegant dinner.

The services we provide make ease of planning your wedding. Set up of your reserved spaces includes tables, chairs, linens, dishes, wait staff, and clean-up. Our banquet chairs are a burgundy-cushioned chair with gold trim. The chairs we use for the outdoor terrace weddings are white.

You may choose to rent additional furnishings from a vendor and have them brought in the day of the event. All rented furnishings must be removed the same day and must be set up by someone other than our staff.

We do not provide decorations. You may bring in decorations the day of your event and begin decorating around 8 to 9 a.m. that day. We do not guarantee the space to be set and ready for your use at that time however. Please be considerate of the time our staff needs to prepare your room and be willing to work around them when decorating.

We take reservations as much as 2 years in advance. We do not require a down payment when reserving your space. However, we do require a credit or debit card number to secure the location with no charges posted to the account. Payment for spaces is due 90 days in advance of your event. Full payment of event is required 30 days prior to event. You may make payments between the time of setting your reservations up until the 30 days prior to your event but it is not a requirement.

Please be mindful of these regulations:

• We do not allow any outside food or beverages with the exception of your wedding cake(s). All food and beverages must be purchased through us.
• Candles must be in a votive cup or hurricane globe that is taller than the flame. NO OPEN FLAMES! NO individual candles per person. No exception to these rules.
• We do not allow silk flower petals or other non-biodegradable items to be thrown on the outside of the property. A clean-up fee will be imposed if this regulation is violated.
• Fireworks are not permitted in an Alabama State Park, to include sparklers.
• You may not pin, nail, or tape decorations to a wall surface or door. Decorations must be freestanding or hung in a manner that does not destroy the property. Please consult with our sales office if you have decorations that need special attention.
• Pictures or other property and furniture pieces of Lake Guntersville State Park that are permanently placed cannot be moved or covered for your event. You may use freestanding decorations to "conceal" the object from your view.
• All decorations, rented furnishings, or other objects that you brought to the lodge must be removed the day of your event.
• If you need storage space for decorations before or after your event, you may choose to rent a meeting room, based on availability. Meeting room rental fees apply daily.

If the dates you wish to hold a wedding are not available at Lake Guntersville State Park, please consider one of our sister parks such as Cheaha, Lakepoint, Monte Sano, Joe Wheeler, DeSoto, or any of our 22 Alabama State Parks.
