A Snowbird Wedding: The Love Story of Courtney and Zach

Courtney and Zach wanted a chill day on the mountains with their family and friends, with good drink and food! I totally loved the vibes of their day and enjoyed the couple’s sense of humor and outlook on life! They got married at Snowbird Ski Resort at the Cliff Lodge venue where their wedding party could look on the mountains and celebrate together. Here is their day!

Getting Ready

Courtney and Zach got ready in their rooms at Snowbird - The Cliff Lodge. It is so perfect and relaxing for couple’s to stay at the lodge before and after their wedding, because you can access the Cliff Spa and the day pass at Snowbird where you can ride the Peruvian Lift, Tram, Alpine Slides, and Mountain Coaster at the resort, or even head up the mountain to Albion Basin trail and take in the wildflowers.

First Look

Courtney and Zach had their first look outside of the venue at the bottom steps of the Cliff Lodge. We got Zach set up first and then Courtney made her way down the elevator and stairs to see her groom for the first time!

On the Lifts

We walked across the Snowbird bridge and took some photos. Then the couple took the Chickadee small ski lift up for some pictures and to take in the mountain views before their ceremony. Once we got the top of the lift we took some photos with the mountains in the background and found some shade under the Aspen trees.

Ceremony

Courtney and Zach got married on the Magpie Terrace outside of the venue surrounded by stunning florals by the Potted Pansy! Their family and friends surrounded them and cheered them on!

Reception

Everyone headed inside for the reception in the The Golden Cliff Venue. Then there was cheesecake, some pranking each other with Smirnoff Ice, Courtney changed outfits into her dancing dress, and the crew danced the night away with some late night sliders served at the end of the night!
