The Garden Chapel at Big Cedar Lodge is nestled in the heart of the property. For guests staying at Spring View and Valley View Lodges, the chapel is just a short walk away. To make getting around easy, we encourage you to use the Big Cedar Lodge Shuttle App, available in the app store. Simply download the app, request your ride, and enjoy seamless transportation from your room to anywhere on the property. If you prefer to drive to the ceremony, you may park at the registration desk and then request a shuttle to the Garden Chapel. There is also limited parking near Devil’s Pool Restaurant, which is centrally located. From there, you can either walk or take a shuttle to the chapel.
3:00 pm - 5:00 pm
Our ceremony will likely conclude before 3:00 PM, and the reception begins at 5:00 PM. During this time, guests are welcome to explore and enjoy the beautiful Big Cedar Lodge. Just a 10-minute walk from the Garden Chapel, you'll find Devil’s Pool Restaurant and Buzzard Bar (located downstairs). Buzzard Bar opens at 2:00 PM and is a great spot for casual drinks and light bites. If you’d prefer to then head to Top of the Rock—where the reception will be held—there are two dining options: Osage Restaurant & Buffalo Bar. Both open at 4:00 PM. You can drive and park at Top of the Rock (note: there may be a parking fee) or you can park at the registration desk and use the Big Cedar Lodge Shuttle App to get around the property. The app is available in the app store—just search for “Big Cedar Lodge Shuttle”, download it, and request your ride.
