Sedona Wedding Site – Sugar Loaf

Sugar Loaf is one of those sweet local spots. Not many visitors find it or even know how very special Sugar Loaf is. It’s known as the very Heart center of the Americas. An unassuming little Knoll in the middle of West Sedona. It has wonderful views of Thunder Mountain and Coffee Pot Rock and Chimney Rock. It’s a fabulous Wedding Site at Sunset. The light on the rocks is amazing and you are up close and personal with some beautiful Red Rocks.
The energy here is very heart centered and loving, gentle and sweet and accepting. In fact, Reverend Akal and I were married alongside sugar Loaf under a Tree that we now call the Wedding Tree. We visit it almost daily in our hikes and go there to renew our vows and connection whenever we feel the need. It’s definitely a favorite of ours.
This is a very easy hike to a spot we call the Singing Rock. Parking is limited in the lot but there is over flow available on the street.

Sedona Bride

Red Rock Crossing is a beautiful Wedding location in the early morning hours. The place is quiet – you might have some ducks swim by or a heron fly overhead – and once a horse came down to the water to drink.

Cathedral Rock at Red Rock crossing is the second most photographed spot in Arizona after the Grand Canyon. The morning hours here hold a special charm. Calm, quiet deserted. This is when Sedona’s magic really shines.

Cathedral stands tall and majestic above you and shimmers in the water below you.

Our beautiful Sedona Bride seems to be in Bliss. Soaking up the morning, the sun, the beauty and the love on her special day.

Beautiful Sedona


Sedona has been voted the most beautiful place in America. It’s moments like this rainbow over Courthouse Butte that earn Sedona this honor.
Sedona is full of breathtaking landscapes, vibrant Red Rocks, bluer than blue skies. Even a dark sky can yield up a treasure such as this rainbow.
There’s actually never a bad day or wrong time of the year to get married in Sedona. The views change from moment to moment. Photographers love it here – no two pictures are ever the same. The sky even when overcast blankets Sedona in Magic and Mystery.
Sedona is the perfect backdrop for your Sedona Wedding!

Sedona Wedding Sites – the Tipi Temple

The Sedona Tipi Temple is the most unique Wedding Location you will find.
In the shadow of Thunder Mountain this beautiful Tipi Temple is large enough for a party of approx. 20 people. The circle shape echoes the circle of your rings and your eternal love. Inside the Tipi Rises high over your head and has the feeling of a pyramid. The acoustics are amazing and the interior walls are the same magenta hue of the local claret cup cactus flowers. The walls themselves have been filled with crystals during construction which amplifies the energy of this spot.

The Tipi Temple is a wonderful location for our Shamanic Wedding package or at the very least some drumming and singing!!

You can learn more about the Tipi temple at our Tipi Temple Package page.

A Sedona Tipi Temple Wedding is very Sacred and very private. This is a beautiful jewel hidden in the heart of the Red Rocks.

Sedona Wedding Sites – Bell Rock

Bell Rock is a well known Sedona Monument. It has great views of the valley in front of it with Courthouse Rock beside it and Twin Buttes and Cathedral in the distance. This site has very electric and powerful energy.

Bell Rock is a male Vortex. We call it Pa Bell because it gives you a direct line to the Creator. It is a great place to send up your prayers and intentions for your Marriage. It acts like a giant transmitter. Your vows and commitments to each other will be definitely heard and noted by the Divine.

There is plenty of parking and it is accessible with a moderate 10 minute hike.

Sedona Wedding Sites – Airport Vortex


Airport Vortex is one of my all time favorite places on the planet. This Vortex has such powerful and transformational energy. This is an electric/magnetic Vortex. That means it is balanced between male and female. The above Wedding was part of our Sedona Song Package

This is a two day event. On day one the bride and groom went on a powerful Vortex Tour with our Shaman, Akal. He took them out to many of the Weddings sites, helped them access the energies and prepared them for their Wedding Day. On this tour the Bride and Groom have an opportunity to really feel which site they both resonate with. This couple chose Airport Vortex and so the next day their lovely, intimate Wedding was held on Airport. I’ll post more about this Ceremony on a later date.

Airport is perfect for small weddings, parking is very limited and the access path can be daunting to Wedding guests. The photo ops are incredible. On your hike in you have sweeping views of all of West Sedona including Cockscomb, Bear Mountain, Thunder Mountain, Coffeepot, Wilson Mountain and Shiprock. At the Wedding Site you have views of Twin Buttes, Lee Mountain, Courthouse, Bell Rock and Cathedral.

Sedona Wedding Sites – Lover’s Knoll

Lover’s Knoll is just off a windy mountain road with world class views. There have been many car commercials filmed on this road. Spreading before you are Twin Buttes, Schnebley Hill, Lee Mountain, Courthouse Butte and Cathedral.

Sunset is the optimum time at this site and Sunset on a full Moon night cannot be beat anywhere on Planet Earth. Indescribable beauty, lighting and energy, a Wedding here on the Full Moon would be legendary.

It’s got easy access and ample parking – an unbeatable choice – as I said on any sunset night and on a Full Moon Sunset it becomes transcendent.

Sedona Wedding Sites – Huckabee Hollow

Huckabee is the start of a trail head a short way up Schnebley Hill.

I found this lovely spot that is a natural Ampitheater surrounded by gorgeous Red Rock formations and an incredible Vista of all of Sedona spreading out before you.

Imagine your Ceremony in the shade of a twisted Vortex Juniper on a Red Rock platform with the Red Monoliths of Schnebley Hill rising up above
you.

There are a lot of pros to this site. Can reach this site with any kind of vehicle so no need for the expense of renting jeeps. Very easy access for all ages. Lots of parking. Even a bathroom/change room at the trail head. Quiet and secluded. A very memorable and unique location for your Sedona Wedding.

You can also benefit from the powerful and uplifting Vortex Energy of this amazing Red Rock Butte.

Sedona Wedding Sites – Isis Overlook

Isis Overlook is a real hidden gem. It is a sweet little Red Rock knoll with views that sweep around you in a 360 degree span of unparalleled beauty. To the West is Cockscomb and Doe Mesa rolling into Bear Mountain and Boynton canyon then comes the great pillars of Isis temple Or Isis Rock then all the Secret canyon Wilderness and Brim’s Mesa and then the back end of Thunder Mountain. it is right in the center of an amphitheater of Red Rock Glory.

Access is over a bumpy dirt road. This can be done with a small party but you will have so much more fun accessing this site on the back of a jeep. This is a real adventure setting. It is still not far to go in a regular car and there is some parking. Though without jeeps this is a site for small wedding parties or elopements.

You really get a sense of the majesty of nature and the indescribable beauty and power of Sedona at Isis Overlook.

Sedona Wedding Sites – Magic Vista

Magic Vista is one of those hidden treasures. I have dubbed it ‘Magic” because it truly is a magical little spot. The views are unbeatable.
You are right in the shadow and the heart centered energy of SugarLoaf, Thunder Mountain rises above you with Coffee Pot (or Horus Rock). As you turn you have a magnificent 360 degree view. From Horus Rock your eye comes to Soldier’s Pass and Brim’s Mesa (called Brim because an original settler kept his prize bull – Brim up there grazing) and then Wilson Mountain and Shiprock and then Schnebley Hill and around to the Twin Buttes and Airport Vortex!

I just thought of another great reason to call it ‘Magic Vista’. Walt Disney lived in Sedona for awhile and many of the whimsical street names were given by him. He was inspired by Sedona and at Disney Land he made his focal piece “Magic Mountain” which was modeled after Thunder Mountain!

This hidden little gem is the absolute easiest access Wedding Site in all of Sedona. No long hike, no climb. just pull up, park walk a few hundred feet on a flat well kept trail and you are there. The ideal times at this location are Sunset and anytime on weekends.

Magic Vista is a personal favorite of mine because I love the energy of Sugar Loaf – it is the heart Center of Sedona and the Americas and that’s some powerful energy to have in your Wedding Ceremony and a great way to begin your married life together.

Wedding Sites – Red Rock Crossing

Sedona has so many awesome and breathtakingly beautiful Wedding Sites.

Some are easily accessible while others are accessed by a short hike, a bit of a climb or even a Jeep ride!

Wherever you are the Red Rocks are magnificent and the Vistas provide a fabulous backdrop for your Wedding Ceremony.

The most popular Wedding Site by far is Red Rock Crossing. This is located right on Oak Creek with a magnificent view of Cathedral Rock. In fact this is the second most photographed location in Arizona after the Grand Canyon.

Red Rock Crossing is one of Sedona’s Vortexes. This is a magnetic Vortex. The energy here is very feminine and nurturing. It is a wonderful spot to plant the seeds of a new marriage.

This is the easiest access location. Even grandma and grandpa can come. We have had many Weddings here with guests in wheelchairs.

My favorite time of the day here is early morning – Wedding parties before 11 a.m. can be assured of parking. There will be very few people – even in the summer time and weekends and the light is other worldly. At that time of the day we can even capture Cathedral reflected in the waters of Oak Creek.

This is such a popular location that on 10-10-10 there were 35 Weddings at Red Rock Crossing. Sedona Destination Weddings performed 7 of them.

There are other sites equally beautiful and romantic but less well known and more off the beaten track. I plan to share them with you in future blogs.

Blessings
Iala
