Weddings in the Grand Canyon
09 May 2009
There is nothing more beautiful and majestic than the Grand Canyon. This all-American sight is the perfect place to say your nuptials. There are a great many ways to say, "I do" when you plan your wedding in the spectacular Grand Canyon, and you have an unlimited number of weddings from which to choose. Due to the enormous size of the canyon that was many millions of years in the making,there are many choices of views and even whiich state where to stay. If it is difficult to decide, Go ahead and have the ceremony and also stay there in the canyon.
The Grand Canyon West Ranch has private pine cabins to stay in or you can select an authentic Indian tipi. You can fly in by helicopter, transfer to a covered wagon and get married right at the ranch. If you choose to spend the night somewhere else , you will still have that option. Because this is your special day, you’ll want to dress in your wedding attire with simple bridal jewelry and have only the beauty of the walls created by Mother Nature to compete. Obviously,when the wedding is over, if you decide to remain at the ranch, prepare for a western entertainment evening with blue jeans and cowboy style hats.
The Grand Canyon West Ranch isn’t the only spot to marry. There are great buys nearly everywhere with extravagance also. Take a helicopter ride in and get married while gazing from the cliffs that look over the canyon. There are several choices to fly out of but Las Vegas and Sedona are two popular destinations to depart or return to. Again, these weddings allow you to select the most appropriate clothes and bridal jewelry to fit your vision, but every bride wants to look her best. Gentlemen, take note. This is a perfect opportunity to purchase your new bride some bling to glisten in the sun and sparkle to perfection against the blue sky and rugged brown and red walls of the canyon. Go back to your prior destination and stay at the enchanting city of Sedona or experience the luster of Las Vegas.
While there are places to stay at the north, south, east, and west rims, the most developed area is the south rim at Grand Canyon Village. The south rim of the canyon is one thousand feet lower than the northern one and also much less wet. The rainfall is about one foot per year on the north rim and the snowfall is slightly more than five feet of snow. The precipitation plays havoc on the north rim so it shows more erosion. It's also colder because of its height. The southern rim is visited more often but the north rim may be better on the hottest days because of its more moderate climate. Ther is also a variation in their views, with the south rim having more plants that are found in the high desert.
Stay at one of the hotels along the rim of the Grand Canyon and use the services of the hotels for your wedding. Once the honeymoon begins, there are some unusual ways to spend the first days as man and wife. Take a burro or mule ride down to the bottom of the canyon and spend the night. Many of the rides stop at accomodations with gift shops and places that offer an opportunity to take great camera shots. The hotel at the bottom offers a cowboy meal of steaks and a second option of more steaks. Spend the night or take the four hour ride back to the top after lunch. Remember that there are restrictions regarding people's health and also weight about being allowed to ride down. In the winter months warm clothing is necessary because you will have to lead your animal through a snow covered path. You'll need several layers most time of the year as the weather gets warmer the closer you get to the bottom. A journey into the center of the canyon will always be an experience that you will never forget.
