Hauntingly Beautiful: Elopements and Alternative Weddings at the Oliver House
Recent trends indicate that more wedding-planning couples are downsizing. While that may seem shocking for those who consider marriage “the most important day of their life,” plenty of Millennial and Gen Z love birds disagree. A majority of younger couples, actually, believe weddings are too expensive.
To combat rising costs and keep things personal, couples who are diving into married life are looking for affordable, highly intimate, and longer-lasting getaways to celebrate their union. Lucky for them: our historical, mountain town is just the place for that!
Non-Traditional & Alternative Weddings
The Oliver House, built in 1908, remains a focal point of our once-bustling mining town. Hosting your wedding event in Bisbee, at The Oliver House, is the perfect way to transport your wedding guests into your special world.
Retro Wedding
Step back in time and style your wedding according to the early 1900s when the Oliver House was built! Our rich history would also lend itself well to steampunk, prohibition era, or other historically themed attire, decor, and favors.
Dark Romance
Whether you’re looking for a gothic-esque venue or the vibe of a dark Victorian affair, we’ve designed our indoor common areas to capture your moment in all its broody, sensual glory.
Elevated Backyard Wedding
Backyard and outdoor weddings never go out of style! At the Oliver House our gardens and patios can be transformed into your fairytale wedding.
Why Choose Oliver House for Your Wedding?
As a small, historic, family-owned lodge, The Oliver House, would be honored (and giddy!) to help you design the wedding of your dreams. Part of our appeal (we think) is our ability to provide ample opportunity for interactions between the wedding party and guests in a variety of cozy common spaces.
