Schweitzer Mountain Resort offers Spokane/ Coeur d’ Alene couples the chance to get married in a destination wedding setting, without hopping on a plane or driving for hours. You can get married in some of the most breathtaking scenery in the WORLD, right here in our backyard. It’s pretty amazing. One of the ceremony locations is literally on the mountain top with views of THREE mountain ranges a ton of beautiful lakes.
