Northern Utah has no shortage of beautiful scenery, that’s for certain! If you’re looking to get married in an area with tall pine trees, alpine lakes, and wildflowers - your search is over. Welcome to Logan Canyon, Utah! A fishing, camping, and hunting haven for lovers of the great outdoors, this spot is also an absolutely gorgeous location to elope. Drive up the Logan Canyon scenic byway with your partner + escape into mountain scenery that look straight out of a movie!

where is logan canyon?
About 85 miles north of Salt Lake City, Logan Canyon is definitely an area “off the beaten path.” After taking the I-15 highway to exit 362, you’ll take a windy mountain road that weaves through rural mountain areas for about 30 miles. Logan Canyon is about 35 miles southwest of Bear Lake, which straddles the Utah-Idaho border. The fact that Logan is a little harder to access means less visitors and a more private experience!
These photos were taken about 20 miles from Logan - you don’t have to go far to find yourself completely surrounded by wildflower blooms and tall pine trees! This area is part of the Uinta-Cache National Forest, part of the Wasatch Front mountain range.
If you’re hosting a slightly larger wedding + need a venue that feels close and intimate with access to nature, visit this blog post on the Tracy Aviary + Botanical Gardens in Salt Lake City, Utah!
