Weddings at Lowell Observatory

Have a wedding day that is unique, romantic, and under the stars.

Our historic location among the pines provides sweeping views of the city below and the skies above. We experience the full range of seasons here in Flagstaff, so our campus is visually stunning year-round. It bursts to life with colorful flowers in the spring and summer, autumn leaves in the fall, and delicate blankets of snow in the winter.

All wedding events include an on-site walk-through, two site visits, access to Lowell Observatory’s general admission for wedding party and guests, and opportunities for exclusive access for wedding photoshoots. Add-ons like portable telescopes, heaters, and gift bags are available for additional fees.
