Minarets Wedding Venues
Minarets Wedding Venues
When envisioning your dream wedding, do the words woodsy, rustic and elegant come to mind? Does your big day include a secluded outdoor venue where guests will leave in awe? If so, then Minarets Pack Station is your Sierra National Forest wedding destination. Forest Weddings in California are woodsy, rustic, and elegant.
Our forest is a coniferous forest of cone-bearing evergreen trees; Jeffrey Pine,
Cedar Trees, Sugar Pines, Lodgepole Pine, and Fir.
July brides to October brides, it can happen at Minarets Pack Station. We have beautiful meadows, wildlife, and spring flowers in July and August.
Fall brides, the fall colors really start to pop around the end of September and are in full swing mid month until October to mid November.
We offer a choice of three forest wedding venues with various options, the North Meadow, South Meadow and East Meadow venues. Each include a one night stay for the new couple on the wedding night in our pack station bunkhouse.
Lodging for a limited number of guests to stay in our tent cabins and campground (2 night stay/dry camping) is included in the package fee for the East and South Meadow venues.
North Meadow- For your convenience, further lodging arrangements can be made for a limited number of guests to stay in our tent cabins or for guests with travel trailers (dry camping) during wedding reservations for the North Meadow venue. Additional fees per campsite or tent cabin (two nights only) will apply.
There are three beautiful locations for your I Do's and your wedding photos. Two memorable timber
arbors are available either for your marriage vows or wedding cake display. All three wedding venues include an option to add on a 3 day/2 night pack trip honeymoon.
Start off your new life with an adventure to share with each other for a lifetime.

Cora Lake Honeymoon
Cora Lake Honeymoon
Cora Lake is at approximately 8,000 feet. This destination is one of our most preferred. The lake sits off to the side of the Isberg Trail in area 2. Area 2 is a bit more rugged. Riders must cross over the Niche. Bring your fishing poles and cameras. This lake is breathtaking.
Vandenberg Lake Honeymoon
Vandenberg Lake Honeymoon
Vandenberg Lake is located on the Fernandez Trail. This lake also sits at approximately 8,000+ feet. This full day ride is in area 1. Area 1 has shorter trail destinations making for easier rides given our rugged country. This lake is also very good for fishing.
