We got married at Mount Tom house this past weekend and have nothing but amazing things to say about Juli and Craig! We were drawn to their beautiful little oasis because it provided a full weekend experience where we could really slow down and spend time with our favorite people. Aside from being gorgeous, we were instantly set on booking them once we saw how thorough and communicative Juli was. In our venue search there were several places I had reached out to before Mount Tom House that were not responsive, took 1-2 weeks to get back to us with questions we asked, etc. I reached out to Juli with a few questions about their wedding weekend package and got a super sweet thorough response within hours, and she had that amazing level of communication throughout the whole process. It made planning so much more stress free getting her input and thoughtful responses on how we could set things up there, and she provided us with a great list of recommended vendors that saved us a lot more searching and ended up being amazing to work with as well. As far as the actual experience goes, we had the most amazing time at Mount Tom house. The house itself is so unique and stunning, the grounds are so serene and peaceful (we even saw deer walking around both mornings!), the food was AMAZING, and they were so flexible and accommodating with any requests we had. Their wedding weekend really is the full package! They fed us for every meal, and Juli was always around if we had any questions or requests! (But not in a overbearing way that impacted our relaxation or celebration, she was so much fun to pop in and chit chat with and was so happy to see us all having fun!) We had a bit of a unique situation arise as well with a huge thunderstorm rolling in right as our ceremony was supposed to start, and they did a phenomenal job of helping us pivot to make our ceremony happen while also making sure our guests were safe and comfortable. Our guests were raving about how great they were, going down and communicating with everyone about the situation and passing out umbrellas so they could get up to the space safe and dry! It was definitely one of those things where having the right vendors surrounding us made all the difference in making things happen and keeping everyone calm and easing anxieties. Mount Tom House is such a hidden gem and I love that it is a place we can go back and stay at every...
Read moreMy husband and I got married at Mt Tom House over the summer, and the experience was nothing short of magical! So many of our guests were blown away by the property and made it a point to let us know it was one of the most memorable weddings they'd ever been to. While we'd love to take the credit, we owe so much of that to the venue itself, and to its power couple top-notch hosts and owners, Craig and Juli, who clearly wanted our wedding to be perfect as much as we did! I could honestly write an essay about what a positive experience it was working with Craig and Juli, who are not only badasses in their own right, but champions of hospitality. The care and effort they have put into an already amazing property is palpable in every detail. They had recently completed the addition of a beautiful wood-fired pizza oven and bar on the patio right before our wedding. We hosted our family for rehearsal dinner and the pizza was SO GOOD. All of the food we had was amazing, and all prepared in-house from scratch! Every room in the house has its own thoughtful charm and peaceful view of the surrounding woods and distant countryside. The sleep was restful, the beds luxurious, and breakfast in the morning was exactly what you'd dream of waking up to. The property itself is stunning, tucked away up in the woods of Mt Tom. It's a short distance from Eugene, yet you feel like you've escaped to an entirely different world, and the drive there is rural and beautiful. The landscape is impressive and well-maintained, and perfectly frames the simultaneously charming and stately Mt Tom House. It's a high class establishment without the pretentiousness. Our photographer put it well when she said that it's like everywhere you look, you could take a picture and turn it into a puzzle. Anyway, I could go on and on, but if you're looking for a place for a romantic getaway, a family retreat, a solo night or two of peace and relaxation, or a phenomenal, intimate yet spacious venue for your wedding or event, look no further. Whatever holes we may have had in our wedding planning (a few!), no one noticed because Mt Tom House is so...
