Our ceremony

4:00 pm - 4:45 pm

We are getting married on the top of a nearby mountain! Guests will take a chairlift ride from the parking lot up to the ceremony location and back to admire the beautiful views :). There will be an option to be driven up and back if unable to take the lift. The bottom of the chairlift is a ~5min drive from Bear Valley Lodge, it is next to a parking lot at the Bear Valley Mountain Resort (the ski resort, not the lodge). We will have shuttles departing from the lodge, and guests are also encouraged to drive themselves to the chair lift parking lot for the ride up the mountain. Dress Code: Dress up in your favorite cocktail or fancy attire! When deciding on footwear, please keep in mind that the ceremony location is a meadow on a mountain, and there are not paved paths :).

We will have the Bear Valley Lodge to ourselves for the wedding, and we'd love for you to stay there with us so we can hang out all weekend! There are also condos within walking distance that can be rented through https://www.bearvalleyvacationrentals.com/, and another lodge at Lake Arnold, ~10min up the road. The closest towns from Bear Valley are Dorrington (~25min) and Arnold (~30min), which have additional hotel and rental options as well.

FAQs

Question

Is there a registry?

Answer

If you'd like to write us a card, we would love that, but we are requesting no gifts -- your presence is a gift in itself!
