The Equinox was lovely. The EQX team were responsive and very helpful. They were always checking in with us day of and made the entire weekend stress free. Our guests could not stop raving about how picturesque the location was and how incredible the food at the reception was. Would highly recommend the 1811 lawn for your ceremony and reception - the meadow house is conveniently located to house your wedding party as well as a great location to get ready in! - Hadley H.

We got married at the Pond Pavilion at the Equinox last September, and we are still dreaming about that day. The whole experience from planning with Ella, seeing the venue a year in advanced, being surrounded by the green mountains the whole time, was perfect. - Kelsey D.
