The team at Verde Canyon Railroad was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. Their communication was friendly, efficient, and easy, which made planning our special day a breeze. The value they provided was great, with a unique and memorable experience (and amazing photo opportunities). They worked with us to create a customized menu, an adorable welcome sign, and their staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming throughout the event. A special shout out to Ellen who arranged for us to do a “first look” on the train beforehand. Our guests have raved about what a one-of-a-kind wedding we had, and we credit a lot of that to the wonderful team at Verde Canyon Railroad, especially Ellen who was great to work with. We were not a small group —120 people— and they handled us with ease.

With a few conversation over email and a Pinterest board, Alexis created the perfect vision board. She executed that vision beautifully on our wedding day.
