Lake Arrowhead is a beautiful location for a “destination wedding.” It is just a short drive from the LA Basin and valleys below. Temperate summers set the backdrop for a gorgeous outdoor wedding. If Lake Arrowhead is your ideal wedding destination (and how could it not be?) we present you with a few helpful tips for planning your perfect day:
-
Venue
The size and style of wedding you desire determines the venue and Lake Arrowhead has several charming options.
- If you’re after an intimate rustic ceremony, Willow Woods touts itself as “home to some of the oldest trees on the mountain.” This venue has a variety of charming antique log cabins on the property, as well as a phenomenal pizza joint, LouEddie’s Pizza, which is available to cater your affair.
- Skypark Weddings is located on the site of the historic Santa’s Village. Surrounded by giant ancient pine trees, this venue provides the perfect backdrop for an elegant forest wedding for up to 250 people.
- Nestled alongside Lake Gregory, in nearby Crestline, San Moritz Lodge is a historic lodge with massive rustic wood pillars and lovely views of the lake. The Lakeview Room holds up to 250 and the Fireside Room holds 150.
2. Lodging
Here, at Arrowhead Property Rental, we offer a large variety of cabins in various sizes, ideal for whatever size group you’ll be bringing along.

Miscellaneous
- Temperatures in Lake Arrowhead can fluctuate quite dramatically. Advise guests to prepare ahead of time for this by bringing appropriate clothing and shoes.
- Don’t forget sunscreen, sun glasses, bug spray, a small sewing kit, safety pins, moleskin patches and small scissors, mints, floss, anti-static spray, shoes appropriate to the venue, and a refillable water bottle.
- Finally, cell service isn’t always reliable in the mountains, therefore, it’s important to provide guests with detailed directions to the venue, rather than leaving it up to GPS.
