The Chapel of Peace
& Heavenly Views
Get married in Nevada in our hot air balloon!
Intimate wedding ceremonies performed in the "Chapel of Peace & Heavenly Views" over Nevada's Carson Valley.
Our intimate hot air balloon weddings are geared towards those who are getting married for the second time, getting married later in life, or wish to have something other than a traditional church wedding.
Weddings flights take place with the bride, groom, pilot (officiate) and one witness. We will provide a witness if necessary. If you have a minister you'd prefer to perform your ceremony, by all means have him/her perform the ceremony. In this case, the pilot will serve as your witness.
Complimentary champagne will be on hand for post wedding toast.
Please call 775-790-7572

wedding ideas or special requests you may have.
