From the bride:

"We had a beautiful wintery wedding tucked away up high on a mountain top, the epitome of cozy-cabin-chic. Gorgeous floor to ceiling stone fireplace, exposed wood beams, warm glowing candles and a snow cat to shuttle wedding guests 7,000 feet up Mount Hood to a private overnight hideaway at Silcox Hut, Oregon. The guests arrived to the hut by snow cat from the lodge below. They entered into a room filled with candles and soft music, the fire crackling, and strung lights across the wood beams. With the winds whistling outside, and snow pelting the frosted windows, we said our vows in front of 35 of our close friends and family. After the ceremony, the staff quickly reset the room, and guests enjoyed cocktails and hors d’oeuvres to the sounds of Frank Sinatra and Louis Armstrong. Dinner was served shortly after, with a beautiful buffet of roasted vegetables, orzo salad, cedar plank salmon, prime rib, and plenty of wine and beer to go around. The U-shaped table layout created an intimate and warm setting for friends and family to enjoy each other’s company. Toasts were given, and champagne was had. We cut the cake and got right to the dancing. Since we wanted to make the experience last as long as possible, we stayed up in the hut overnight with a handful of our party savvy friends. The hut accommodates overnight guests in goose down covered bunks, and we awoke the next day to smells of waffles and coffee, sunny blue skies, and a beautifully snow-covered mountain."
