High atop the Mountain of Holy Cross in the Gore Mountain Range, you’ll find The 10th Vail, overlooking the awe-inspiring sight of Vail Valley. The 10th Vail is a grand mountain lodge that mixes modern touches with contemporary architecture. It’s also a mountain-top wedding venue. One where ceremonies take place on the private wedding deck, accessible by way of a picturesque gondola ride.
Natasha and Joe’s The 10th Vail wedding was a chic fête. Blending romantic details with personalized touches. All in all, creating a wedding day filled with the storytelling aspects of the love they share.

The 10th Vail, Scenic Mountain Wedding Ceremonies
During a select few months of the year The 10th Vail hosts wedding ceremonies in an open-air theatre-style setting. Directly overlooking the valley, the al fresco deck at this Vail wedding venue offers unparalleled views, courtesy of lush green valleys and forested woodlands.
After a gondola ride where they took in the views and soaked up those final pre-wedding moments, Natasha and Joe arrived at their ceremony. As guests patiently waited, the soft lull of a four-string quartet filled the air with melody. Natasha made her way down the aisle, accompanied by both of her parents, and guests rose to greet her presence.
The crisp mountain air dallied with Natasha’s veil, lifting it into the air where it floated with whimsy. Creating an atmosphere imbued with nature for a true Vail wedding experience. In front of honored guests, Natasha and Joe recited their vows, joining together in marriage.


Vail Mountain Weddings, an Alpine Setting for Your Photography Experience
Hosting a Vail mountain wedding allows you to enjoy an up-close alpine experience. For Natasha and Joe, when their ceremony was finalized, that meant spending time frolicking through the landscape while capturing their wedding photos.
Along the mountainside, among the wildflowers and native vegetation, Natasha and Joe had a moment all to themselves. One where they could immerse themselves in the views and relax in each other’s presence as a newly married couple. All while I captured their portraits.
As a Vail wedding photographer, my packages offer the inclusion of film photography to draw on the emotion of the day and enrich your natural surroundings. The skies overhead on the day of Natasha and Joe’s wedding were accented with streaks of clouds, but the valley below was a canvas of color. Towering trees, rocky mountain views, and peaks and valleys were an oasis of tranquility.

The 10th Vail Wedding Reception
When it was time to join their friends and family in celebration, Natasha and Joe descended the mountainside to the reception space at The 10th Vail. Inside, floor-to-ceiling windows offered a view of the valley while guests dined for the evening.
Natasha and Joe enjoyed speeches from honored guests before hitting the dance floor to the sounds of a live band. As the evening drew to a close, guests lined up outside to send off the newlyweds for a final gondola ride before heading to their vibrant afterparty.
