PREPARING FOR THE TRIP

Welcome to Vail—truly “Like Nothing on Earth.” We’re so excited to celebrate with you and want to make sure you're ready to enjoy every minute!

LOGISTICS

Free Bus System

Vail has a fantastic in-town shuttle system that runs regularly between Vail Village and Lionshead as well as East and West Vail. It makes getting around super easy and convenient, no car needed! Ask your hotel concierge for a printed schedule or check times online.

Summer Bus Schedule

Cab Services

The cab companies listed below offer 24-hour door-to-door service and have six-passenger minivans available.

High Mountain Taxi – 970.524.5555

Vail Valley Taxi – 970.476.8294

Ride Taxi – 970.949.1111

Uber is newer to Vail, and therefore has a shortage of drivers and surge pricing at peak times.

Event Transportation

There is no need for transportation for anyone staying in Vail Village, The Gondola is a 2 minute walk from the Lodge at Vail and 5 minutes from the Sebastian.

For anyone staying outside of Vail, you can park in the Main Vail Parking structure and walk 7 minutes to Gondola One.

Kids + Childcare

We love your little ones, but we kindly ask that our wedding events be adults only so everyone can relax and enjoy the celebration.

High Altitude Tips

Vail sits at over 8,000 feet above sea level. Altitude sickness can affect anyone, regardless of fitness level. Common symptoms include headache, nausea, fatigue, and dizziness. To help acclimate: stay hydrated, make sure to eat some carbs and healthy sugars, arrive early if possible, and remember—one drink here feels like two!
