Sleeping Lady Mountain Retreat is the perfect location for your destination wedding.   Whether you desire a simple ceremony or an exclusive wedding weekend, we will ensure that it is the special occasion of a lifetime.  Our staff is committed to taking care of every detail.

Date Availability
While we welcome your inquiry for any date, our prime availability for weddings includes holiday weekends and select dates throughout the winter months.  On some of these weekends, a two-night/exclusive-use minimum will apply.

Facilities
Sleeping Lady's Chapel Theater and adjacent Salmon Gallery is the premier venue for your ceremony and reception.  Encompassing 5,000 square feet on two levels, this space includes a 150 seat ceremony venue with seperate dressing rooms for bride's party and groom's party.  A dramatic granite staircase leads to the Salmon Gallery level, where 150 people can be accommodated for a stand up reception with scattered cocktail seating.  The rental fee for this space is currently $2,000 per event (typically encompassing 5 hours, excluding set up and teardown).  We can also provide smaller facilties for more intimate groups.

The Kingfisher Meadow and Stage are located at the base of Icicle Canyon on Icicle Creek.  The Meadow's grassy area, with a view to the Sleeping Lady mountain profile, is ideal for outdoor ceremonies and has a spiritual quality that reflects the legacy of the people who came before.   Kingfisher's outdoor barbecue circle, in this same area, provides the perfect setting for a relaxed rehearsal dinner.   The multi-level Kingfisher Terrace, constructed of granite from the Icicle Canyon, is the venue of choice for a post-ceremony champagne toast and cocktail reception.

Your photographer will find endless opportunities for unforgettable wedding pictures throughout Sleeping Lady's 67 acres. Of special interest will be Dale Chihuly's first permanent outdoor installation - the Icicle Creek Chandelier - and the rocky outcropping at the edge of Icicle Creek with the Sleeping Lady mountain profile as the background.

Services
Sleeping Lady's facility rental fees differ based on the size of your group and your specific facility room needs.  Our rental fees include tables and chairs, ivory tablecloths and napkins, china, glass and flatware for food and beverage service.  The rental fee also includes set up and teardown.

Food Services
Sleeping Lady is renown for our quality food. Our menu emphasizes the freshest of produce, supplemented with seasonal offerings from our own organic garden, and offers the best Northwest poultry, fish and meat available.  Wedding meal service ranges from $35 - $50 per person.  Our talented culinary team can prepare a full range of menus from Hors D'oeuvres in the Salmon Gallery to Dinners in Kingfisher Dining Lodge.  All food served, with the exception of your wedding cake, must be provided by Sleeping Lady Mountain Retreat.

Beverages
We offer a selection of premium wines, cocktails, liquors and beers for your reception.  All beverages served must be provided by Sleeping Lady Mountain Retreat.  For budget planning purposes, please estimate an average of $15 - $25 per guest for beverages, depending upon the selection to be served.  Non-alcoholic beverages including coffee and tea, soft drinks and fruit juices are included in each wedding menu.

Set Up/Decorations
We typically allow two hours of set up time prior to special events.  It will be your responsibility to advise your contracted providers such as florists, DJâs, bands and cake providers of the time that is allowed for set up.  It is also your responsibility to advise your providers where the items they are supplying are to be placed.  Your contacted providers are welcome to call us if they have any questions.

Flowers and large rental items may be delivered to our facility on the day of your function.  Smaller items such as favors may be delivered to your Coordinator at a pre-arranged time.  Our staff will be happy to assist in the placement of these items provided that no assembly is required.  Nothing may be attached to the walls of your banquet room.  Sleeping Lady can provide Votive candles to be used to enhance your table decor if you so desire.   All decorations and personal items must be removed immediately at the conclusion of your event.
