We did a Jeep wedding, the whole wedding party was in lifted Jeeps. It was a blast. We had the top off and drove through town, we got a lot of looks and honks.

I think that a wedding at Ruby Falls would be a fantastic place. Especially when the weather is good. You would have to be careful of the whiskey jacks, even though they are harmless. Then have your reception back in town.

I have been to a few stags at Brule sand dunes.

I have heard of other people talk about doing it, but everyone seems to fall back to the indoor wedding.

Good luck with this JDM.

we ended up doing an indoor wedding at the church only because my dad is handicapped and it was too hard for he and his wife to bring down his quad and his scooter. Good for you for having such an awesome wife to be! :beer:

Bud, you only get married once. Make sure it's what you and your fiance would like. I am sure everyone will understand. My brother-in law got married while snowmobiling in Revy up in the hill's. The justice of the piece rode his sled up the mountain and everyone had a blast.

Oh yeah, make sure where ever the reception is that it's big enough for all of the snow and mud family to show up.............. Of course we will all bring our quads too......

Is this both of your first wedding? We had both been married before and have 7 kids between us. Both of our dads were ailing. My husbands dad actually passed away 1 after we were married. For me, because it wasn't my first wedding, I wasn't too concerned about the actual wedding/reception. We wanted to incorporate all the kids and make sure our parents could share in our day. I was just so incredibly thankful to be marrying such a wonderful man and gaining such amazing step kids I would have married him in a mud puddle.

We really wanted to get married on our sleds on top of a mountain, but it was going to be too difficult to get everyone there. So we settled on having the ceremony in Canmore surrounded by mountains. Then at the reception we both rode our sleds in as our 'entrance'. Our theme was snowflakes and we even had a sled couple on top of our wedding cake. We had a constant running of sled vids in the background throughout the party. It was a blast!! I say go for it!! You won't regret it!!

There have been two weddings at Ruby Falls that I know of.

The first had something like 84 quads go in for the wedding. Lined up two rows of quads to form an ailse for the bride to walk up. Polaris supplied matching riding jerseys for the wedding party and all kinds of banners. Pretty cool and memerable wedding for for that couple.

The eyes over my shoulder want me to ask you if there were any permits needed for that to happen seeing as it's a park.

It is very popular in the Swan Hills area, why not you get to mix every one you love with what you love. Rudy Falls is an amazing place to have your wedding and if there is not enough room for the reception move down to the river on the lower loop.
