My sister in law and her husband got married at Whistler a few years ago. Didn't even invite us...

reefer · Apr 14, 2010

jaywbigred just did it at Jackson..........he posted a report a couple weeks agao. I think he had it on video also.

I think someone did it Mt Snow this season. I thought I saw a comment on their flikr page or something.

Got married in the shadow of Mt. Mansfield, but not a proposal.

A mountain ranger did it at the top of Hunter a couple of years ago. Went all out. Had TV coverage, violin players, confetti. Mtn mgt was very involved in making it happen and snuck non skiing family members up to see it.

Not sure if they got married yet, but I see they are still together.

No proposals but been to many weddings on top of Cannon.On second thought my divorce was finalized at Cannon.That was a great proposal for both of us.Still see each other there all the time.(with other partners)

Got engaged in the middle of Milky Way Bowl at Heavenly. :fangun:

Bumpsis · Apr 14, 2010

I proposed at The Headwall, Crested Butte. Very uplifting experience which I highly recommend, providing that your wife to be can handle the steeps.

Somewhat related . . . my wife and I are celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary this year at the base of Mount Snow. We'll be having an outdoor ceremony at the Pergola that's in front of the Grand Summit Hotel (see photo below)

Poor planning on my part . . . we got married in July. We should have got married in January and I could have had these FanGuns blowing an archway of snow over us.

Vince, that's going to be an awesome event this summer.

Yup, got engaged at Jackson this year in Rawlin's Bowl. Had to find something that was empty, and there was a reason it was empty: as a result of the hadn't-snowed-in-3-weeks snow, baking in the 50 degree sun, the conditions made it challenging for my fiance to navigate with much rhythm (she doesn't have the strongest legs, heavy skis that are only 70 something underfoot, first run of the day, etc), but she eventually got down:

Stowe has a stone chapel alongside a ski trail:

My wife tells me that Stowe's trail called "Sterling" is so beautiful that it would have been a perfect place for me to pop the question. D'oh!

That's the funniest thing I've heard in a while

I recommend doing it on tele gear.

Lol, I think that is, in fact, staged...however, when I was starting to choreograph my proposal, I had the exact thought "Well getting down on one knee would be a lot easier if I knew how to tele!" Ha!

Harvey · Apr 16, 2010

Actually it wasn't staged. The couple in that photo is well known at Gore and it was a legitimate moment.
