Yosemite Valley Lodge

Yosemite Valley Lodge sits steps from Yosemite Falls in the heart of Yosemite National Park, offering a distinctive setting where the grandeur of one of America's most celebrated natural landscapes becomes the backdrop for weddings and private events. The lodge's signature glass-and-wood architecture reflects its surroundings, and its location within the Valley provides easy access to iconic views of Half Dome, Sentinel Rock, and the Merced River. The property accommodates weddings and celebrations of up to 100 guests, with indoor event space suited to seated receptions, dinners, and group gatherings. Standard event packages include pre-event setup, banquet tables and chairs, linens, dinnerware, glassware, and silverware, along with post-event cleanup. All food and beverages are provided on-site by the property's culinary team, and a dedicated event coordinator guides clients through every detail of planning. Room blocks can be arranged for wedding guests, drawing from the lodge's 245 guest rooms — including traditional rooms, family rooms, bunk rooms, and ADA-accessible accommodations. A National Park vehicle entrance fee applies for all arriving guests, and the property's events team can help plan logistics accordingly.
