The Top 10 Jackson Hole Wedding Venues


Wyoming might be the least populated state in the U.S., but what it lacks in crowds, it makes up for in jaw-dropping beauty and wide-open spaces. For couples craving a wedding that feels personal, untamed, and unforgettable, Jackson Hole is the sweet spot where rugged Western soul meets modern elegance. I’ve spent years exploring this corner of the world—hiking the Tetons, sipping coffee in Wilson, chasing sunsets along the Snake River—and I’ve seen firsthand how these venues turn wedding dreams into reality. Here’s my take on the top 10 Jackson Hole wedding venues that’ll give you that perfect mix of charm, scenery, and a story worth telling.

Why Get Married in Jackson Hole?

Jackson Hole is more than just a picturesque town—it’s a gateway to some of the most breathtaking landscapes in the country. Tucked between the Teton and Gros Ventre ranges, Jackson Hole isn’t just a place—it’s a feeling. You’ve got elk wandering the valley, crisp mountain air, and views that make you forget the chaos of wedding planning. It’s private yet accessible, wild yet refined. Whether you’re picturing a barn dance under string lights or a mountaintop vow exchange, these venues deliver. Let’s dive in!

The Top 10 Jackson Hole Wedding Venues

1. Grand Teton National Park – A Ceremony with a View

Imagine saying your vows with Grand Teton herself as your backdrop—jagged peaks piercing the sky, reflecting off a glassy alpine lake. This 500-square-mile park is a stunner, ranked the sixth-best national park in the U.S. for a reason. I’ve hiked to spots like Schwabacher Landing and String Lake, and trust me, the photos don’t lie—these are postcard-perfect ceremony sites. You’ll need a special use permit (about $200, non-refundable) plus entrance fees. It’s a little extra legwork, but for a wedding surrounded by untouched wilderness, it’s worth every penny. For more information on permits visit the NPS site.


2. Snake River Ranch – Rustic Jackson Hole Elegance on a Historic Ranch

A Slice of Western History
Three miles south of Teton Village, this family-owned cattle ranch feels like stepping into a John Wayne movie—except it’s real, and it’s yours for the day. Dating back to the 1930s, Snake River Ranch has hosted Wrangler and Jeep shoots, so you know the backdrop’s legit: rolling meadows, river bends, and Teton views that’ll make your guests’ jaws drop. Site fees start at $2,500 (not including planners or catering), but the vibe—authentic, unpretentious, timeless—is priceless. I’ve driven by here at golden hour, and it’s pure magic.

3. Diamond Cross Ranch – A True Western Experience

Rustic Romance with a Horse Stampede
When it comes to Jackson Hole Wedding Venues this isn’t just a venue—it’s an experience. Diamond Cross Ranch, one of Jackson Hole’s last historic family ranches, has been in the same crew for five generations. Cosmo dubbed it Wyoming’s #1 wedding spot, and I get why: sprawling fields, a classic red barn, and those Tetons peeking over the horizon. The kicker? Their signature horse release—imagine a herd galloping past as you kiss. Peak season starts at $6,995, but for a true Western wedding that’ll have your guests talking for years, it’s a steal. Check out their full scoop in my deep-dive post.

4. Grand Targhee Resort – A Mountain-Top Ceremony

Love at 10,000 Feet
Perched on the west side of the Tetons, Grand Targhee Resort is a year-round gem with rustic cabins and a chairlift ride to Fred’s Mountain for your ceremony or epic portraits. I’ve skied here in winter and hiked it in summer—the views are unreal, stretching across the valley like a painting. Starting at $3,000 in peak season, you get the observation deck, a free suite for the night, and discounted guest rooms. It’s Western charm with a touch of adventure—perfect if you’re a couple who loves the outdoors.


5. Snow King Resort – Luxury & Convenience in the Heart of Jackson Hole

Right in the heart of Jackson Hole, Snow King Resort sits next to Snow King Mountain, blending convenience with that high-country feel. Party Slate flagged it as a dream U.S. wedding spot, and I’ve seen why: two all-inclusive packages (starting at $150/head) cover everything from food to setup, plus 10-20% off hotel rooms for your crew. I’ve grabbed a beer at their bar and watched the sun dip behind the hill—it’s cozy yet elevated, ideal for a stress-free celebration.


6. Jackson Hole Mountain Resort – Luxury Meets Adventure

Big or Small, They’ve Got You
Whether you’re hosting 300 or just the two of you, Jackson Hole Mountain Resort flexes to fit. From mountaintop ceremonies to luxe receptions, their packages start just under $3,000. I love that they source local ingredients—think Wyoming beef or Teton Waters trout—for a menu that tastes like the region. I’ve ridden their tram to the top in summer, and the 360-degree views are the kind you’ll never forget. Versatile, stunning, and oh-so-Jackson.


7. Jackson Hole Golf & Tennis Club- Classic Elegance

All-Inclusive Without the Fuss
If you want beauty on a budget, this club’s a hidden gem. Choose the Event Tent or Terrace (starting at $5,000), and they throw in furniture, decor, and the ceremony site—up to 200 guests, no sweat. I’ve swung by for a round of golf and stayed for the sunset; the Tetons frame it all like a natural cathedral. They team up with sister properties for lodging, too. More details in my venue post—check it out!


8. Amangani & Spring Creek Ranch – Luxury Retreats with Jaw-Dropping Views

Luxury Meets Laid-Back
Amangani’s a 5-star stunner atop East Gros Ventre Butte—redwood and sandstone vibes screaming “peaceful home” (that’s what the name means, blending Sanskrit and Shoshone). Weddings here can climb into six figures, but the panoramic views and luxe details are next-level. I’ve peeked in during a stay nearby, and it’s pure class. Want the same vista with less sticker shock? Spring Creek Ranch, just north, offers a casual Western twist at a fraction of the cost. My venue blog has the full rundown.

9. Moose Creek Ranch- A Cozy, Rustic Getaway

Rustic Charm in the Valley
Twenty-two miles from downtown Jackson, Moose Creek Ranch nestles at the Tetons’ base with cabins, a barn, and a creek weaving through it all. I’ve fished near here and fallen for its quiet beauty—mountain backdrops, wildflowers, the works. Peak season starts at $3,500, dipping to $2,500 off-season. It’s got room for your guests to crash and a dance floor to boot. My venue guide spills more tea—give it a read!

10. Bentwood Inn – An Intimate, Eco-Friendly Escape

Cozy Meets Epic
In tiny Wilson, just outside Jackson, Bentwood Inn feels like a secret hideaway. Built from Yellowstone’s 1988 fire-reclaimed wood, this log cabin oozes warmth. Summer weddings get Teton views framed by cottonwoods; it’s intimate (25 inside, 200 outside) but big on heart. You can book the whole inn for 22 adults—prices range from $500 to $15,000 depending on the setup. I’ve driven by in June, windows down, and felt the magic firsthand.

Your Jackson Hole Wedding Starts Here

These 10 spots weave Jackson Hole’s wild spirit into every detail—whether it’s horses thundering by, a lift ride to your vows, or a barn glowing with twinkle lights. I’ve tramped through this valley enough to know: there’s no place like it for a wedding that’s equal parts raw and refined. Planning can feel like herding cats, but picking one of these venues is step one to nailing it. Need a hand narrowing it down? Drop me a line—I’d love to help you find your perfect fit!
