When we think of an amazing outside the box wedding experience here on Vancouver Island, we always think of Raven Lodge on Mount Washington, in the Comox Valley.
Imagine your ceremony, surrounded by your family & friends, with the view stretching out as far as the eye can see to Forbidden Plateau and beyond, filled with the towering trees of Strathcona Provincial Park, and the chirps of Whiskey Jacks!
We photographed countless weddings on the mountain and wanted to share what we think makes Mount Washington stand above the rest!
Spectacular Views
Who doesn't love an amazing view? We mention beautiful backdrops quite a bit, you would be hard pressed to find better backdrop than Strathcona Provincial Park, and Forbidden Plateau. It's picturesque in every direction you look!
