Solitude Mountain Resort - Wedding Photography

Say it at the top of the world

Solitude lives up to its name. This mountain resort sits at 8,000 feet in Big Cottonwood Canyon, offering alpine meadows, wildflower fields, and ski runs turned ceremony grounds. Summer weddings here feel otherworldly, cooler air, panoramic views, and a quietness that makes every vow feel more sacred.

The gondola ride up creates a natural opportunity for portraits, use it. Late afternoon light at elevation is softer and more golden than at lower altitudes. Watch for afternoon thunderstorms in July and August, they clear fast and leave the most dramatic skies you have ever seen. Dress your couples in layers; it can be 30 degrees cooler than Salt Lake City.
