The Ultimate Nature-Inspired Alabama Wedding Venue: A Complete Guide to Getting Married at ReTreet Resort
When it comes to tying the knot, every couple dreams of a wedding that feels personal, intimate, and unforgettable. At ReTreet Resort, we go beyond being just a venue—we offer a full wedding experience, where couples and their guests can relax, celebrate, and truly connect in nature. Whether you’re an adventure-seeking couple, a nature lover, or simply looking for a luxurious yet laid-back atmosphere, ReTreet is the perfect nature-inspired Alabama wedding venue for your special day.
Why Choose ReTreet Resort for Your Wedding?
Unlike traditional venues where guests arrive for a few hours and leave, ReTreet offers something much more immersive—a destination wedding experience designed for couples who want quality time with their loved ones. Our 21 luxury accommodations provide an intimate retreat for up to 70 guests, allowing your wedding celebration to extend beyond just the ceremony and reception.
Here, it’s about more than just saying “I do.” It’s about shared experiences, cozy fireside gatherings, and making memories under the stars. Whether you envision a luxury garden party or a simple chic nature-inspired celebration, our resort seamlessly blends natural beauty with modern comforts.
The Booking Process: What to Expect
Couples usually find us through social media or by searching for unique Alabama wedding venues online. Once you’ve discovered ReTreet, here’s how the process typically plays out:
Step 1: Explore Your Wedding Package Options
We offer three flexible wedding booking options:
Two-Night Exclusive Wedding Experience ($19,950) – Book the entire resort for a full weekend wedding, ensuring complete privacy and access to Alabama’s first glass dome event space.
One-Night Midweek Wedding Package ($10,950) – A more streamlined, cost-effective option with exclusive access for one unforgettable evening.
Star Dome Event Venue Rental – If you prefer a half-day or full-day event, book the Star Dome for a unique setting under the stars.
💡 Booking the full property guarantees exclusivity! If you choose to book only the Star Dome or select accommodations, other guests may be present on-site. All with equal and shared access to all on-site amenities.
Step 2: Schedule a Property Tour
We offer private tours by reservation only to provide couples with a full walkthrough of our accommodations, event spaces, and amenities. We respect the privacy of our guests, so weekend tours are not available. When you fill out our initial planning form, you may indicate interest in a property tour and we’ll be happy to schedule that for you.

Step 3: Secure Your Date
Once you've selected the perfect package, simply fill out our contact form to start the reservation process.
To secure your dates on the calendar, we require a $500 deposit, with one-third of the total booking payment due within 72 hours. You’ll have 72 hours from the time of booking to decide if you’d like to proceed.
Once your first payment has been collected, you’ll have a 30-day grace period in case your plans change. After this grace period ends, we are unable to offer refunds, as outlined in the contract.
