Beautiful Indoor Backup Options for Your Mountain Wedding or Elopement
Backup Event Area
Whether the forecast brings rain, fog, wind, storms, or simply chilly mountain temperatures, Cabin Heaven offers a warm, beautifully designed indoor space that keeps your day magical.
Our Plan B option isn’t just a backup event space — it’s a romantic, candlelit indoor venue that feels intentional, intimate, and utterly dreamy. Think glowing string lights, flickering candles, boho romantic touches, and your favorite people gathered close as you say “I do.”
Embracing the Beauty of Rain,
Fog, and Clouds
At Cabin Heaven, we understand that many couples dream of a sun-soaked wedding day. However, Mother Nature can have her own plans, sometimes delivering rain, fog, or cloudy skies. While it may not be what you initially envisioned, there is a unique and enchanting charm to these atmospheric conditions that can turn your wedding into something truly magical.

"My husband and I originally planned for an outdoor wedding on this beautiful mountain top but rain had different plans. Thankfully they made the cabin absolutely beautiful the decor was amazing the fire was going and it was amazing. The photographer we got through them got amazing shots and even made photos in the rain stunning. I wouldn’t change a thing about our wedding day!" - Julia W.

Mystical Fog
Fog rolling over the mountains is a sight to behold. It adds an ethereal quality to your surroundings, making the landscape appear like something out of a fairy tale. Foggy days provide a natural softening effect for your photos, giving them an artistic and dreamy quality. Plus, there's an element of mystery and intrigue that can make your wedding feel like an adventure.

Adapting to Weather Challenges
Our experienced team is well-prepared to adapt to various weather conditions. We have backup plans and creative solutions to make sure your wedding goes off without a hitch --- rain or shine. Your happiness is our priority, and we'll work tirelessly to create the perfect atmosphere for your special day.
Forever Memories
Ultimately, what makes a wedding truly memorable are the emotions, the love, and the connections. Rain, fog, or clouds can't dampen the warmth and joy that come with celebrating your love. Your wedding day is a story, and sometimes the unexpected weather becomes a beautiful chapter filled with unique, one-of-a-kind moments that you'll treasure forever. So, whether it's sunshine or raindrops, Cabin Heaven is here to ensure your wedding day is a cherished and unforgettable experience.
The Magic of Cloudy Skies
Cloudy skies can offer a natural filter for your photos, diffusing the sunlight and providing a flattering and soft light for your pictures. It's an excellent backdrop for capturing candid moments and genuine emotions. Clouds can also bring out the vibrant colors of your flowers, decorations, and attire, making everything pop. "Privacy and Intimacy" When the weather isn't ideal for outdoor ceremonies, we have cozy indoor spaces that offer comfort and intimacy. You can still enjoy breathtaking mountain views from our large windows, even on a rainy day. Our cabin provides an intimate setting for your celebration, ensuring that your wedding remains a cherished and private affair.
FAQs
What happens if it rains or storms on my wedding day?
If we see heavy rain, strong winds, fog with low visibility, or any unsafe weather, we’ll seamlessly transition your ceremony into the cozy indoor cabin.
