Your High West Distillery wedding will consist of delicious whiskey and celebrating you and your best friends’ love, whatever that may look like. The High West Distillery aims to incorporate the products they love in the place they love, the West. High West believes that all couples, regardless of race, gender or sexual orientation, should be celebrated (which I also believe!). Their event staff is professional, experienced and truly invested in making sure your wedding day runs as smoothly and joyful as possible. High West has three separate venues that I will highlight in this post. Pricing for your wedding celebration depends on the venue you choose as well as the time of year. Contact them here to get more information! Otherwise, read on, and you will find out some great information about the beautiful High West Distillery wedding venue in the mountains of the West. I take on a super limited number of weddings each year to ensure the best possible client experience, and would love to be there for you on your big day!
