Alaska Glacier Lodge – Palmer
– Exceptional and private describe the location of the Alaska Glacier Lodge, formerly the Knik River Lodge – at the very end of the Knik River Road, it’s a bit of a drive but worth the effort. Helicopters are available on site, ready to whisk you away to the Knik Glacier for the coolest photo shoot you’ll ever do.Lodge staff are top-notch professionals in everything they do and will make sure your wedding is awesome.

Pioneer Peak will be the centerpiece backdrop for your wedding if you choose Paradise Alaska, a relatively new wedding venue on the Alaska wedding scene.

The Chalet At Government Peak – Wasilla-Palmer
-The Chalet is a relatively new venue to the valley, and a nice addition to the Hatcher Pass area. We’ve been here a few times now and love the views and big open space.
