The same things that bring vacationers to the area also make the Mount Washington Valley a popular place for weddings, drawing couples from across New England and from farther away to celebrate their special moment with family and friends.

Many couples come for destination weddings, holding the event over a long weekend or even a week, and including activities like hiking, skiing and golf along with shopping and entertainment. Others elope over a quiet, romantic weekend.
