Don Sheldon Mountain House Wedding in Denali National Park and Talkeetna Photos by Alasdair Turner

Last week I traveled to Talkeetna Alaska to shoot a wedding at the Don Sheldon Mountain House inside Denali National Park.  We started with some photos in town..

After photos we headed to the airstrip to fly to the wedding destination at the Don Sheldon Mountain House.  A 45 min flight with K2 Aviation into the Ruth Gorge and then a glacier landing is followed by a short walk uphill to the hut where the wedding party changed clothes.  The ceremony took place on a rock outcrop above the Ruth Glacier and below the highest peak in North America.  

This was the perfect glacier wedding, and the Mountain House is the perfect location for an adventurous wedding ceremony.  

Over the past couple of years I have been asked to shoot more and more of this type of adventure wedding and they are quickly becoming my favorite events.  They certainly make for the best wedding photos possible and memories that will last a lifetime.  Click here for more info on adventure wedding packages click here or  email me directly at alasdairturner@gmail.com
