Venue Pricing

We believe in transparency and honesty in everything we do, which is why our venue pricing is straightforward: no hidden fees, no additional taxes, just a price for use of our beautiful venue for the day, so it’s just you and your loved ones on the mountain. Your rental of the venue includes venue use for 12-hours, all tables and chairs, and unlimited communications during the planning process. We strongly recommend a minimum all-in wedding budget of $50,000+ for celebrations at the venue.
