Mention Park City and avid skiers visualize swooshing down snow-capped mountains, film fanatics flash images from the Sundance Film Festival and outdoor enthusiasts dream of a myriad of ways to enjoy the vast outdoor terrain.

There’s mountain biking, horseback riding, hiking, skiing, snowboarding and breathing in air purified directly from Heaven. If you query a newlywed couple as to why Park City is the perfect place for a wedding or a honeymoon, I would venture to guess they want to launch their life in a land rich with natural beauty and a tribute to the great outdoors.

“Park City is a unique, year-round destination that offers something for everyone. Winter is well-known for skiing and snowboarding at three world-class resorts plus endless off-mountain activities. Spring, summer and fall bring days filled with hiking, biking, whitewater rafting, or just relaxing at our one of our many lodging or spa properties. With over 100 restaurants in town, there are options to please everyone’s palate. There are over 300 flights coming into Salt Lake International Airport daily (non-stop flights available from New York City and Los Angeles) and it is just a 35-minute ride to enjoy all that Park City has to offer,” says Bill Malone, President & CEO, Park City Chamber of Commerce/Convention & Visitors Bureau.

“Waldorf Astoria Park City is the ideal destination for a honeymoon retreat any time of the year. The activities in Park City are endless; guests have access to over 4,000 acres of adventure at Canyons Resort. The views are breathtaking; being located within the Wasatch Range. Our guests also enjoy the liveliness and convenience of historic Old Town and our personalized ‘true Waldorf service’ from arrival to departure,” says Kerry Hing, General Manager, Waldorf Astoria Park City.

Park City is also a picture perfect place to plan a wedding. “With the stunning backdrop of the Wasatch mountain range, this historic mining town has emerged as the place for destination weddings,” says Dana Orlando, Director of Sales and Marketing, Waldorf Astoria Park City.

Whether you are planning a wedding or honeymoon, Park City, Utah is a glorious spot to consider where the clear blue sky is the limit!
