Known for powder turns, backcountry terrain, and unforgettable days, Fernie Wilderness Adventures (FWA) is now offering something entirely unexpected—summer weddings in one of the Elk Valley’s most scenic and secluded locations.
Just 20 minutes south of Fernie, tucked into the lush Morrisey Creek valley, FWA’s rustic backcountry lodge is now available for private wedding rentals. Surrounded by towering trees and mountain views, the lodge provides a quiet and intimate setting ideal for couples looking to celebrate off the beaten path.
With eight bedrooms and comfortable indoor gathering space, the lodge suits weddings of up to 30 guests. For larger celebrations, an on-site event tent is available to rent, including tables and chairs, extending capacity to 60. Those dreaming of a full-scale outdoor celebration with up to 150 guests can bring their own tents and rentals to create a custom venue in the wilderness.
Ceremonies take place in a beautifully natural outdoor setting, where rustic plank and stump benches lead to a simple wooden stage tucked among the trees. Smaller weddings can also make use of the warm, wood-accented interior common room for cozy, candlelit gatherings.
Onsite amenities include a full kitchen, large common room with long wood tables, front and back decks with fire pits, a wood-fired hot tub, and even a disc golf course—all surrounded by the peaceful sounds and fresh air of the forest.
Whether you’re dreaming of a mountain elopement or a weekend-long celebration with friends and family, Fernie Wilderness Adventures offers a truly unique setting where adventure and romance meet.
