Love at 12,000 Feet: Relive Loveland’s 35th Annual Mountaintop Matrimony 🎥💍

/in /by

Valentine’s Day at Loveland Ski Area is always special — but this year marked something truly historic. On Saturday, February 14, 2026, Loveland celebrated the 35th Annual Mountaintop Matrimony, welcoming 125 couples to the Continental Divide for one of Colorado’s most unique Valentine’s Day traditions.

With 3 inches of fresh snow and bright, sunny skies overhead, the stage was perfectly set for a day filled with love, laughter, and unforgettable mountain memories.

30 Couples Said “I Do”

At 12:00 p.m. sharp in Forest Meadow, 30 couples officially tied the knot during the mass ceremony, while dozens more renewed their vows high above the Rockies. Couples traveled not only from across Colorado, but from several other states — and even multiple countries — to take part in this one-of-a-kind alpine celebration.

There’s nothing quite like exchanging vows at nearly 12,000 feet, then clipping into your skis or snowboard and riding down the mountain together for the first time as a married couple.

A Celebration On and Off the Slopes

The day began with guest check-in before couples made their way up the lift to the ceremony site. After the heartfelt 30-minute ceremony, the celebration continued at Loveland Basin during the Honeymooner’s Après Party.

Music, wedding desserts, sparkling cider, and plenty of smiles filled the afternoon. Guests also received swag bags courtesy of Coors and Coca-Cola, adding to the festive atmosphere.

Creative “ski-wedding” attire was everywhere — from veils over helmets to tuxedos paired with ski boots — creating incredible photo moments against the snowy mountain backdrop.
