About this venue

Calling all adventure lovers, outdoor enthusiasts, and nature aficionados! Looking for a truly unique wedding location for your special day? Want to showcase the beauty of the PNW to your out-of-town guests? Look no further! Come say your "I Dos" at 4,000 ft. elevation with Mt. Hood in the backdrop! From wildflowers to scenic mountain vistas, Skibowl is a one-of-a-kind, FUN venue, offering an array of services and accommodations for your wedding guests. After arriving to your reception mountain-style (aka Alpine Slide), dance the night away under the stars (and twinkly lights, of course) on the outdoor patio, adjacent to your Reception Tent. Keep the festivities going all weekend long, from surrounding area hikes, to paddle boarding Trillium Lake, to hosting a post-wedding brunch the morning after. From a seasoned catering team to an onsite day of coordinator, you'll be in good hands at Skibowl, with lots of guidance along the way!

The Historic Warming Hut

The most memorable guest experience! Everyone rides a chairlift or shuttle up to a rustic, Historic Warming Hut where gorgeous ceremonies are held.

Located mid-mountain, the 400 square foot Historic Warming Hut was built during the same era as Timberline Lodge and features that same rustic Cascadian appearance including a beautiful stone fireplace.

Guests love to wander around the area and take photos prior to your ceremony. It's a one of a kind venue space!

    I recently had the pleasure of planning a wedding for one of our clients at Mt. Hood Skibowl, and I can't say enough about what a fantastic venue it is! The location is absolutely breathtaking, with stunning mountain views that make for a picture-perfect backdrop. Whether you're planning a winter wedding or a summer celebration, Skibowl offers something truly magical for your big day. What truly stood out to me, though, was the exceptional staff (Especially Rowan). From the moment we arrived, the team was incredibly professional, welcoming, and attentive. They went above and beyond to ensure every detail was taken care of, making the entire planning process seamless. It's clear that the staff at Mt. Hood Skibowl takes great pride in creating unforgettable memories for their guests. Their kindness and dedication made all the difference, and it was evident in the smooth flow of the event. If you're looking for a unique, picturesque location with a team that genuinely cares about your day, I wholeheartedly recommend Mt. Hood Skibowl for weddings. It’s a place where nature’s beauty meets unparalleled service, making it the perfect setting to celebrate love and commitment.

    As a DJ who has had the pleasure of working numerous weddings at Mt. Hood Ski Bowl, I can confidently say it is one of the most breathtaking and seamless venues I’ve had the honor of working at. From the moment you arrive, the stunning backdrop of Mt. Hood and the surrounding forest creates an unparalleled atmosphere. The most unique feature, is that the wedding party can ride the Alpine Slides down to the reception! The staff at Mt. Hood Ski Bowl is truly exceptional. They are not only professional but also incredibly accommodating and friendly. I've worked with their team on several occasions, and every time, they’ve been organized, communicative, and eager to ensure that everything runs smoothly. They work tirelessly behind the scenes to make sure that the couple's vision comes to life, and they always go above and beyond to keep everything on schedule—an absolute blessing for any wedding vendor. Overall, I cannot recommend Mt. Hood Ski Bowl enough for couples looking for a one-of-a-kind wedding experience. The combination of stunning natural beauty, a top-tier team, and an ideal atmosphere for both guests and vendors makes it a go-to choice for anyone looking to create a memorable wedding day. It’s always a pleasure to return to this incredible venue, and I know couples who choose Ski Bowl are in for a truly magical celebration!

    I've planned a few weddings at Skibowl now and it's been an awesome experience for me and my clients each time. It's a rustic yet beautiful venue with incredible views and offering a totally unique experience for weddings. The team is top-notch and so helpful and lovely to work with. I want to call out one wedding in particular, where we had unexpected snow in June and the whole team (from the planning team, to catering, to the shuttle drivers) pitched in to help and make the wedding happen and support me and my team as well. They're simply so great to work with and I love recommending this venue to my clients!
