A Transformative Retreat to Celebrate Your Love and Connection
Not your average wedding..
Did you know, the average cost of a wedding in the US is $33,000—and lasts just one day!
Meanwhile the average retreat costs $2,000 per person.
Now what if you could combine the best of both worlds?
Imagine your wedding being a transformative, meaningful journey; rather than a one time event—an intentional experience that honors your love story celebrated with your favorite people.
Why consider a wedding retreat?
This isn’t just about planning a wedding; it’s about creating something deeply personal and intentional. Your love between you and your beloved, should NOT be about external pressure--society, family or timelines...
Rather, it's a conscious decision to choose each other every day.
With that in mind, why not craft an experience that will deeply honor what matters most...
• The Celebration of Your Story: Your love deserves more than a few fleeting hours. It deserves intention, love and presence.
• Deep Connection: Bring your closest family and friends together in a unique way that will strengthen bonds and creates lasting memories.
• Priceless Moments: For less than the cost of a traditional wedding, you can have a transformative retreat that’s as meaningful as it is beautiful.
It's about you & your beloved

... we were taken care of EVERY step of the way
Don’t think, just book! We were lucky enough not only to be guests at The Elysian but also host our micro-wedding there! Their team was incredibly kind and dedicated - we were taken care of at every step of the way. Not only was the lead up to our big day amazing with The Elysian team, but their help day of was second to none. Don’t even get me started on the home… pictures can’t do the serenity felt there justice! As a testament to Kristen, Rodger, Dani and the entire Elysian Team - our group’s car wouldn’t start when we were checking out to leave Sedona from the Elysian early in the morning. When I tell you that Rodger and Dani didn’t even blink before coming to help us out… Rodger was personally getting jumper cables for us while Dani was seeing if a neighbor had any. They showed up for us… before, during and after our wedding. We couldn’t be more grateful to have worked with them.

The Elysian team helped us every step of the way from location suggestions, to music, transportation, hair & make up, and everything in between
Kristen, Roger, and Dani from the Elysian Retreat were fantastic to work with and kept us updated throughout our journey of planning an intimate wedding ceremony in Sedona. They helped us every step of the way from location suggestions, music, transportation, food, hair & make-up, and everything in between! The retreat offered a beautiful space for our group to stay and enjoy a dinner reception. The team at the Elysian Retreat were extremely accommodating helping us move our dinner indoors due to the weather. My wife and I highly recommend planning a wedding at the Elysian Retreat. The accommodations are lovely and the location has direct access to Oak Creek and was only a short drive from our ceremony spot at the base of Cathedral Rock.
