Spectacular Wedding Venues Near Mt. Shasta, CA

I say spectacular when it comes to Mt. Shasta because the area is so beautiful and the views, are, well, spectacular! So, I think a wedding here would be nothing less than stunning.

Where to hold your wedding ceremony and reception is one of the most important decisions you’ll make about your wedding day. Your wedding venue will set the tone for the entire event. Today, weddings are held just about anywhere with vineyards and wineries being the most popular.

The Trinity Mountain Resort offers a relaxed wedding venue with a pristine wilderness environment. Its 40 acres sits at about 5,000-foot elevation which gives you warm days and cool nights. You might have your ceremony under a decorated canopy in a beautiful meadow with your reception nearby. This site works very well for a destination wedding because you and your guests can rent out the entire facility for the weekend. They have several cabins for rent as well as areas for camping. The Bear Cabin is on three levels with a kitchen, bath, living room, bedroom, patio and private campfire. Their Chalet Cabin has five sleeping areas with a kitchen and 2 bathrooms. There are additional motels in nearby towns if you have more guests than the resort can accommodate. (Visit their website at shastaweddings.com for more information.)

Next is the Mt. Shasta Resort, which has several ceremony and receptions sites for you to choose from. This resort is about half an hour from Lake Shasta. Outdoors you’ll have the beautiful mountains surrounding you and if the weather becomes inclement (or you marry in the winter), you have several rooms to use instead.
