Venues are always changing their pricing and policies, so the information in this blog may be out-of-date. But as of 2025 when I’m writing this…

Legacy Lodge is the signature base-area venue at Park City Mountain, a timber-and-stone great hall with two soaring levels, floor-to-ceiling windows that frame the ski runs, and an 8,000-square-foot deck overlooking the buzz of Mountain Village. Because the building is steps from the lifts—and reachable in street shoes—it delivers true alpine views without the lift-weather gamble of the mid-mountain venues. Once the resort day winds down, the plaza empties, turning your reception into a private mountain party just five minutes from downtown Park City.

Legacy Lodge Location:

Legacy sits at 1345 Lowell Avenue, directly at the Park City Mountain Village base. Park in the free surface lots, and walk two minutes to the lodge’s front doors—no canyon switchbacks, no lift ticket required.

Legacy Lodge Seasonal Availability:

Packages run June – September for warm-weather weddings, with “select winter” dates—usually mid-December through March—for ski-season buyouts if you’re willing to share the base area with day skiers until late afternoon.

Legacy Lodge Cost:

Legacy Lodge is still the most budget-friendly of Park City Mountain’s large venues

• Venue package: starts at $3,000 and already includes ceremony site, tables, chairs, linens, china, flatware, glassware, dance floor, and alpine-slide/lift transport to the ceremony meadow.
• Food-and-beverage minimum: starts at $5,000

Legacy Lodge Capacity:

Indoors the lodge seats 250 for dinner and up to 300 standing for cocktails. The adjoining Alpine Meadows ceremony lawn tops out at 250 chairs.

The Ceremony Site:

Summer vows happen at Alpine Meadows, a grassy amphitheater a Payday lift ride above the base. Guests glide up, stroll a pine-fringed path, and watch you marry against a Wasatch panorama before sliding back to the lodge via the Alpine Slide—an experience reviewers call “part chairlift, part carnival ride.”

The Reception Site:

Back at Legacy, dinner unfolds beneath exposed trusses and massive antler chandeliers, with bars on both floors to ease traffic. Huge windows and a wrap-around deck keep the mountain in view, and indoor amplified music can run until 11 p.m.

Legacy Lodge Getting-Ready Location:

The lodge itself lacks full bridal suites, so couples usually book slope-side condos or hotel rooms in Mountain Village (Marriott MountainSide, Lodge at the Mountain Village, Hyatt Centric) where hair-and-make-up teams can spread out.

Legacy Lodge Set-up Time:

Because Legacy hosts conferences by day, vendor load-in starts around 2 p.m. with a standard five-hour event window (e.g., 5 – 10 p.m.). Extra hours—either earlier or later—can be added for a fee, and the resort staff handles all chair/table placement before planners arrive with décor.

Legacy Lodge Vendor Flexibility:

All catering, bar, and cake service stay in-house, but the resort lets you pick any planner, florist, DJ/band, photographer, or rental provider.

Legacy Lodge Venue Coordinator:

A dedicated Park City Mountain event manager drafts layouts, timelines, menu selections, and lift/slide schedules, then stays on-site until teardown begins. They run the building; a licensed outside planner is strongly encouraged to manage décor, cue the ceremony, and wrangle vendors.

Legacy Lodge Food & Alcohol:

Menus lean “mountain-modern” (Utah trout, prime rib carving stations, house-smoked BBQ). Bars are billed on consumption or per-person packages, and Utah liquor law means no outside alcohol—all spirits flow through the resort’s DABC license and bartending staff.

Legacy Lodge Parking:

Mountain-village surface lots are free after 3 p.m. in summer and plentiful for 250-guest events; during winter, advance reservations or paid parking may apply until the lifts close.

Legacy Lodge Lodging:

More than 1,500 pillows lie within a three-minute walk—Marriott MountainSide, Hyatt Centric, Lodge at Mountain Village, plus dozens of condos. Group rates kick in at ten rooms, and the resort sales team can bundle lift tickets or a next-morning brunch voucher into your block.

Legacy Lodge Pet Policy:

Legacy Lodge sits in the public base area, so only ADA-defined service animals are allowed inside; emotional-support or companion pets must stay at pet-friendly hotels off-site.

Legacy Lodge Upsides:

• Budget-friendly for a ski resort—$3k site fee and a modest F&B minimum.
• No weather gamble—easy base access means rain or wind won’t strand guests mid-mountain.
• Alpine-slide grand entrance is a crowd-pleaser your guests will post about for weeks.

Legacy Lodge Downsides:

• In-house catering only—excellent quality but limits DIY or ethnic menus.
• Shared base plaza—you’ll have private space inside, but summer concerts or winter après crowds linger nearby until early evening.
• No bridal suite on-site, so you’ll need hotel rooms for prep.
