On this very deck, Walt Disney and other notable guests once danced beneath the alpine sky, setting the stage for generations of unforgettable gatherings.

Today, the Village Lodge offers a truly one-of-a-kind wedding experience, with thoughtful amenities that elevate every moment. Treat your guests to a mountaintop cocktail hour atop Mt. Disney via chairlift, enjoy seamless access to on-site lodging, and celebrate against a breathtaking backdrop of four Donner Summit peaks. From arrival to last dance, every detail is effortlessly woven into the magic of Sugar Bowl.
