Guests should begin their ascent up to Zephyr Lodge by 3:45pm at the latest. You will take the Big Springs Gondola up to mid-mountain and then get on the Tahoe Zephyr Lift. It takes about 30 minutes to get from the village all the way up to the top. Ceremony begins at 4:15pm. Please don't be late.
Oh la la. In order to keep our guest list under control we are only able to accommodate those guests formally invited on your wedding invitation. Please feel free to text us with any questions!
Please dress sharp. Think cocktail attire. Whatever that means to you, we support it.
Yes. Please view the Travel section of our website for details.
Of course! The gondolas to our ceremony/reception site are wheelchair accessible. At the top, there is a paved path from the top of the chairlift down to Zephyr Lodge.
For those of you staying at one of the TML/Northstar/Ritz properties, parking should be included. If you are not staying at Northstar, there is paid parking near the Northstar Village. From the lot, you will walk through the Village to the Big Springs gondola and ride to mid-mountain. At mid-mountain you will take the Tahoe Zephyr chairlift/gondola to the ceremony/reception site.
The temperatures during the day in September average between 70-80 degrees, but drop significantly at night. While the reception will take place inside Zephyr Lodge, all guests will take the gondola down the mountain at the end of the evening. Please bring a warm outer layer (jacket/sweater/shawl) with you to the wedding so you don't freeze your arse off at the end of the night
Northstar Village's elevation is 6330 ft. and Zephyr Lodge is at 7900 ft. This may affect everyone differently, so please remember to pack sunscreen & drink plenty of water.
If you have any strict dietary restrictions, please include them in your RSVP.
When deciding what shoes to wear, please remember that our ceremony will be taking place outside on top of a mountain. The ground is covered in mulch & tanbark, so do choose your shoes wisely. We recommend women wear wedges or chunky heels.
