Solitude Mountain Resort is a mountain resort in Utah's Wasatch Range, about 45 minutes from downtown Salt Lake City, hosting summer weddings and events from June through October. Couples can choose from venues designed for both ceremony and reception on one site, including St. Bernard's & The Inn Lawn, Moonbeam Lodge, Last Chance Lodge & Apex Lawn, and Roundhouse Lodge, along with ceremony-only settings such as Moonbeam Meadow, Apex East Overlook, and The Pond at Solitude — set against alpine wildflowers early in the season and fall foliage later on. On-site wedding coordinators guide couples through planning and day-of logistics, while the resort's culinary and banquet teams build customized reception menus with full bar service. Because lodging, dining, and event spaces sit within Solitude's walkable, European-style resort village, guests can move between ceremony, reception, and their rooms on foot. The resort also offers heated outdoor pools, rehearsal dinner spaces, post-wedding brunch options, and bridal and group spa packages, along with dining at St. Bernard's and drinks at The Thirsty Squirrel — amenities that also support corporate retreats and family reunions beyond weddings.

Provo City Library at Academy Square occupies the historic Brigham Young Academy building, a landmark built in 1892 from locally manufactured brick trimmed with sandstone and wood. Originally designed by Don Carlos Young based on plans by Karl G. Maeser, the building could once accommodate 1,000 students; its bell tower, added in 1919 with a bell cast at Baltimore's McShane Bell Foundry, still marks the structure today. The library moved into the renovated building in 2001, following a $16 million library bond and a $5.8 million fundraising effort by the Brigham Young Academy Foundation. At the heart of the building, the Ballroom — formerly the Academy's study hall and assembly space — hosts banquets and dinners for up to 320 guests, or theater-style gatherings for up to 500, beneath its restored columns and chandeliers. The library's Events Scheduling Office also books the Nelson Attic and five additional meeting rooms for weddings, parties, conferences, and business gatherings, each supplied with tables, chairs, and audiovisual equipment at no extra charge.

Silver Fork Lodge & Restaurant is a mountain lodge set 11 miles up Big Cottonwood Canyon in Utah's Wasatch-Cache National Forest, a mile from Solitude Ski Resort and three miles from Brighton Ski Resort. Though only 30 minutes from downtown Salt Lake City, the lodge sits deep enough in the canyon to feel far removed from the city. What began as a general store in the Silver Fork mining community — an area with roots dating back to the 1850s tent camps of miners and sawmill workers — has grown into a full-service lodge that keeps its rustic, historic character alongside recently renovated rooms, lobby, and bathrooms. The lodge offers seven guest rooms with mountain views, each stay including a complimentary breakfast from a kitchen known for house-made specialties like sourdough pancakes. Its indoor banquet space and upstairs space host winter wedding receptions, rehearsal dinners, and corporate events for up to 60 and 80 guests respectively, while the surrounding grounds — framed by spruce, aspen, and fir trees — open up to larger summer celebrations of up to 250 guests. Wedding packages include catering, table settings, linens, an archway, firepit, and a day-of coordinator, with a complimentary room offered to the couple based on availability.
