Arapahoe Basin Wedding

Arapahoe Basin’s Black Mountain Lodge is a Colorado mountainside wedding venue accessable by chair lift at 11,500′ that can accomodate up to 200 guests.

Black Mountain Lodge features vaulted timber cielings and huge windows that look out to the surrounding mountains. The attached ceremony deck allows for a seamless transition from ceremony to cocktail hour to indoor reception.

Everyone accesses the venue via the Black Mountain Express chairlift which takes seven minutes from bottom to top. Lift access is available for the entirity of your five hour event. Meredith Smith and her team at A Basin will help coordinate your entire day so everything runs smoothly. Unlike many venues that simply provide someone from the venue to turn on the lights and direct vendors, Meredith will be involved with you from the moment you start your planning to the moment you ride the chairlift down at the end of your wedding day. I ahve worked with tons of venue coordinators in my career and she is one of the best, if not the very best.

You will be hard pressed to find a better mid-mountain wedding experience for the cost anywhere. The food is outstanding, the venue is spacious and the views are hard to beat.

WHY WE LOVE IT

This venue has all the things you desire in a mountainside venue without the obnoxious sticker price. Meredith and the team at A Basin treat you like family and will go out of their way to create a great guest experience, trust me I've seen it. I have done hundreds of weddings and hands down the best meal I've ever had was at a wedding at A Basin. From a photography perspective it's an excellent venue because the mountains are just steps away.
