Are you thinking about getting married or eloping in Zion National Park? Zion is such an amazing place for a destination wedding. I am a Southern Utah Videographer based right outside of Zion & have filmed hundreds of brides & families in the Southern Utah area. It is by far one of my favorite locations in the WORLD!
Southern Utah has an airport of its own you are able to fly into which is about an hour from Zion. If you want a cheaper option — Las Vegas is only a 2-3 hour drive away (from st George + Zion) Lots of easy options for traveling into the state. Southern Utah has pretty mild weather for the majority of the year, & gets in the triple digits heat wise in mid summer. So i would opt for spring, fall or even winter if you choose to host an event here.
Once you get to Zion, everywhere you look is beautiful. You dont have to go all the way into the national park to get to witness the breathtaking views & gorgeous red rock mountains. In fact — if you would rather not be married in a busy area — there are so many local mountains in Southern Utah in general outside of the park that are just as beautiful as options to host your event.
Some of my favorite locations to check out are:
- Zions Canyon Overlook Trail
- Kolob Mountains
- Snow Canyon State Park
National parks & state parks typically require a permit to perform a ceremony so be sure to check out their website in advance to reserve your spot. If you are not wanting to hold an actual ceremony in the park — there are lots of options outside as well!
- Red Rock Oasis
- Under Canvas Zion
- Ponderosa Ranch Resort
Here is one of my favorite wedding videos showcasing Zion & southern Utahs beauty.
