Mountain Top Ceremony
Sat, Sep 7, 2024, 6:00 pm - Sun, Sep 8, 2024, 12:00 am
1015 Glades Drive, Whitefish, MT 59937
The ceremony will take place on the summit, which requires riding a chairlift or gondola. You will need to arrive at least 30 minutes prior to the ceremony to ride the chair lift up. The last lift will leave no later than 5:30 pm. If you miss this, you will miss the ceremony. You can ride up as early as 5 pm. There's a bar at the summit and amazing views! The gondolas are wheelchair accessible and fully enclosed. Please let us know if you'd like to ride in the gondola! We will have the alpine slide available during our cocktail hour, so come prepared to slide! https://skiwhitefish.com/alpine-slide/ For detailed information, see Whitefish Mountain Resort's website here: https://skiwhitefish.com/wedding-guest-information/
Travel
Flight
Glacier National Park (FCA)
The airport is technically in Kalispell, MT, which is ~28 minutes from the mountain and ~15 minutes from the town of Whitefish!
Flight
Missoula Montana Airport
Missoula is ~2.5 hours away from Whitefish, but is an absolutely beautiful drive up to Whitefish! The flights are also probably going to be less expensive. If you'll be in the area for a few days, definitely consider flying into Missoula and exploring around there! You will need to rent a car.

Travel Note
Hotel information
We will be contacting a few hotels in Whitefish over the next month to book room blocks. Stay tuned for updates! We plan to have a shuttle to Whitefish Mountain Resort from downtown on our wedding day.

Things To Do
Glacier National Park
Whitefish is ~30 minutes from Glacier National Park. The mountains are amazingly beautiful, so definitely visit if you have the time!
Whitefish Lake
Whitefish Lake is also beautiful, so if water is more your thing over mountains, we strongly recommend. Or do both!
Whitefish
There are countless amazing outdoor activities in the Whitefish area, as well as some fun restaurants and breweries. We recommend checking out the Explore Whitefish website to see what fits your vibe!
