You deserve the best on your wedding day. Our team here at Tyax Lodge is vastly experienced at providing unique weddings that will be remembered for a lifetime.
Tyax Lodge is the perfect venue for your dream wedding. Our exclusive wilderness resort in the South Chilcotin Mountains is the ideal setting to create memories that will last forever. Tyax Lodge is located 180km north of Whistler, BC and is accessible year-round by road.
Our lawn on the shore of Lake Tyaughton is the perfect space to gather 100 of your nearest and dearest for your wedding ceremony. We also have a range of reception room sizes to create the perfect ambience depending on the size of your group.
Your Venue
Tyax Lodge – Up to 100 guests
This fully catered venue is our most popular choice. With a decadent reception room, lake-view dining room and rustic lounge, it’s easy to see why. Full set-up and tear-down services are included in your package. We provide round tables, white folding chairs, white linen, tableware, cutlery, head table, in-house sound system, and dance floor area.
Tyax Barn – Up to 100 guests
Tyax Barn is a newly renovated, full catered barn with a reception space and dining area. This outdoor barn is fully protected from the elements and has bar service until 1 AM. Tyax Barn also comes with the same set-up service as Tyax Lodge, with the extra addition of fairy lights and romantic fabric hangings.
Wolverine Chalet – 20 to 40 guests
The Wolverine Chalet is a fantastic choice of venue if you wish to bring your own caterer. This six bedroom, traditional log chalet is ideal for an intimate wedding of 20 to 40 guests. If needed, Tyax Lodge can provide set-up and tear-down of 62” round tables, white folding chairs, and white linen.
Lynx Chalet – 20 to 30 guests
Our other option for a private, self-catered wedding is the Lynx Chalet. This beautiful chalet, right on the water’s edge, is perfect for 20 to 30 guests. The Lynx Chalet also has an alternative lakeside ceremony venue. In the case of inclement weather, we can set up an outdoor wedding tent to keep your day running smoothly.
Your Meal
Chef Duarte creates your wedding menu with inspiration from the land around him. He only uses fresh, local, in-season ingredients for you and your guests. As such, the menu is constantly changing and evolving. With our canapés, you can expect something along the lines of Kusshi oysters with mignonette and fresh lemons, or Foie gras torchon with caramelized onions on toasted brioche.
For your wedding meal, you can choose between a multi-course fine dining offering or perhaps you’d rather eat ‘family style’ with your guests. With choices like Pan Seared Scallop, Cache Creek Natural Beef Tenderloin and Truffled Tiramisu, the multi-course menu is sure to delight. The ‘family style’ dinner has options like Beef roast with a red wine jus, or Roasted Greek style veggies with goat cheese served on large platters to be shared between guests.
Or if you’d prefer a more casual reception meal, we can happily organize a lake-side barbeque for you and your guests.
After your meal, our dedicated staff will set up indoor and outdoor areas for an evening of dancing, drinking, and laughing.
Your Accommodation
We have 28 recently renovated, rustic bedrooms available in Tyax Lodge for you and your guests. Given our unique location, each room has stunning views of either Lake Tyaughton or the ancient forests surrounding the lodge. Our wilderness resort has all the amenities that you’d need for your big day.
If you are planning to have your wedding in one of our chalets, there are rooms available there as well. We also have a campsite at our lodge if your guests prefer to sleep under the stars.
Tyax Lodge is also available to be fully booked out for your wedding. In renting out the entire resort you create a truly intimate experience with total dedication from each and every staff member.
