Kindly reply by May 1, 2025 to help us finalize our plans.
We recommend arriving on Friday evening to check in & acclimate to the altitude. The Cliff Lodge sits at 7,500 feet, and our ceremony & reception will be at 11,000 feet. Check in at Snowbird begins at 4:00 pm & rooms are guaranteed by 6:00 pm.
Self-parking is complimentary for overnight Snowbird guests at all lodges. The Cliff Lodge offers valet services for $20 per vehicle per day.
As much as we love your little ones, we are not able to include them in the ceremony or reception. However, we recognize that some of you will be traveling with your children, so please know there are wonderful childcare options and family friendly summer activities at Snowbird.

June is a terrific time in the Wasatch Mountains! You can expect daytime highs in the high 70's or low 80s and night temps in the mid 50s. Most mountain mornings start out cool and transition into warm, sunny days followed by cool evenings. Canyon winds and scattered showers are possible, so bring a jacket to stay comfortable.
Our wedding ceremony will be outdoors at 11,000 feet on a sunny deck at the Snowbird Summit! Reception will be indoors. The alpine sun can be quite bright & wind is often present. Our reception will be indoors at the Snowbird Summit with stunning view of the mountains & sunset.
Comfortable cocktail attire (no jeans). We recommend you bring a warm layer as evenings can be breezy or cool. Men: Suit with or without a tie. Slacks and a button up with or without a tie. Women: Knee-length, tea-length, or midi dress. Suit or jumpsuit.

We invite you to be fully present for our ceremony & ask that you refrain from taking photos during this special moment. Following the ceremony, you're free to snap as many pics as possible & we hope you'll share them with us here on Zola!
Please share your dietary restrictions or allergy information on your printed reply or RSVP here on our website. Snowbird's chef & kitchen are dedicated to your comfort & health. They will make every effort to ensure you have a delicious & safe meal at our wedding. Please note that it may not be possible to adapt some menu items, like wedding cake, for guests with specific allergies or dietary restrictions.
Guests will travel to the Summit using Snowbird Aerial Tram! You are invited to ride the tram at 4:00 or 4:20 p.m. Please arrive 10 minutes prior to your desired tram departure time. Your ride is complementary, and we will provide a QR code for tickets a few days before the wedding. A signed waiver is required to ride the tram to the Summit. The link to fill out the waiver is below. We will also send out an email with the waiver, so make sure to add your email address to your contact information on Zola. https://apps.1risk.cloud/1waiverKioskv3/sign?a=aHR0cHM6Ly9teS4xcmlzay5uZXQvc25vd2JpcmRhcGl8OTU4MzFiMmRhNzcxNDdjYzlmZTU3ODdjNmVlNTJmNWF8MzA
Private trams for our wedding guests will depart from the Summit at 10:40 & 11:00 pm. Public trams run continuously every 20 minutes until 8:00 pm. Additional trams are available upon request if needed.
The best preventions for altitude sickness are time to transition, hydration & rest. Arriving in Salt Lake City a day or two early, giving yourself time to adjust will help. Ski patrol will be at the summit in case anyone needs medical attention.
