Wedding Weekends at Enchantment: A Sedona Celebration Framed by Red Rock Views
Perched at the base of Boynton Canyon, Enchantment is a luxury resort offering a wedding weekend experience that feels both intimate and grand. Surrounded by hundreds of acres of pristine wilderness, the views at Enchantment are magnificent in every sense of the word, providing the most stunning backdrop for any style of wedding. It’s a Sedona destination where every moment is carefully curated by a talented team of experts—from arrival cocktails to farewell brunches beneath panoramic canyon views.
A Seamless Weekend, Set Against One Iconic Landscape
What makes Enchantment so well-suited to a multi-day celebration is the way the resort places couples and their guests squarely inside its landscape.
“Each casita is thoughtfully positioned to provide awe-inspiring canyon views just steps from the door,” says Kayla Kudo, the resort’s Social Sales and Catering Manager, “allowing guests to feel immersed in nature without ever leaving the property.”
Enchantment’s roster of on-site offerings—guided hikes, tennis and pickleball, several dining venues, and exclusive access to the acclaimed Mii amo spa—allows couples to stage each event in a different tone and setting while keeping the weekend centralized and effortless.
How a Wedding Weekend at Enchantment Unfolds
A wedding weekend at Enchantment usually unfolds as an intentional and beautifully curated guest experience. According to Kayla, this is an example of what a couple’s itinerary may look like:
- Thursday — Arrival & Welcome Soirée: Low-key cocktail receptions, lawn games against a red-rock backdrop, and small-group lounges for reconnection.
- Friday — Leisure & Celebration: From Seven Canyons golf and Mii amo spa treatments to poolside lounging and a themed rehearsal dinner, Friday is about options that match every guest’s rhythm.
- Saturday — The Wedding Day: Morning preparations, a late-afternoon ceremony framed by canyon cliffs, golden-hour cocktails, and an elegant reception under the stars.
- Sunday — Farewell & Fond Memories: A gourmet brunch, thoughtful parting gifts, and relaxed departures.
“Whether it’s a welcome dinner under the stars, a ceremony framed by red rocks, or a farewell brunch with canyon views,” Kayla explains, “the resort offers the perfect balance of celebration and serenity.”
Unique Group Experiences
Couples who want their wedding to feel like a shared getaway can take advantage of Enchantment’s unique group experiences. Popular choices include Pickleball Happy Hours, poolside cocktail gatherings, guided hikes and bike tours, axe throwing, and private stargazing sessions. Creative offerings hosted in the Artist Cottage—such as watercolor classes, pottery throwing, and bracelet beading—offer memorable, hands-on moments that double as keepsakes. The “Bachelor Burn” is a particular favorite, offering a relaxed, rustic-style woodburning session for groomsmen.
“Couples love incorporating creative experiences into their wedding weekend,” Kayla adds, “and the Artist Cottage offers a charming and memorable way to do just that. These workshops bring a warm, artistic layer to the weekend—one that guests always remember. While the wedding day is undeniably the heart of the weekend, these experiences help create a joyful, connected atmosphere that makes the celebration even more meaningful.”
For a truly elevated touch, bridal party helicopter tours and curated local winery tastings add a VIP-style “wow” factor.
Outdoors: Sedona’s Landscape as Co-Host
Sedona is synonymous with outdoor ceremony backdrops and transformative excursions. At Enchantment, there’s a multitude of ways for guests to enjoy the surrounding landscape.
“Outdoor adventure is truly at the heart of Sedona,” Kayla shares, “and our Trail House serves as your resource to explore the region, offering private guided tours and trail advice to all our guests. Couples can customize private guided hikes tailored to their group’s preferences, drawing on expert trail knowledge to explore everything from scenic overlooks to the native flora and fauna. A sunset hike is favorite, offering breathtaking views and a golden backdrop that’s perfect for group photos.”
“For something more introspective,” she continues, “we recommend a Vortex Hike which includes a guided meditation to experience Sedona’s legendary vortex energy in a meaningful, grounding way. And for those who prefer to explore without the physical demands of a hike, our Premier Scenic Driving Tours offer a luxurious way to see the red rock landscape in the comfort of our luxury transit vans, making it easy for all ages and fitness levels to join in the fun!”
Wellness & Stargazing
No visit to Enchantment is complete without some quality time spent at Mii amo, voted the #1 Destination Spa in 2025 by Travel + Leisure magazine. With world-class treatments and holistic wellness experiences inspired by the land, Mii amo is a peaceful retreat where guests can unwind and reconnect between the weekend’s festivities.
Following a blissful day at the spa, visitors are treated to an ethereal, cinematic finish. As a designated Dark Sky Community, Sedona offers a rare opportunity to experience the night in its most magical form.
“After sunset,” Kayla describes, “the sky transforms into a canvas of stars, ideal for stargazing. Whether you’re on a guided hike under the stars, enjoying the view from your private patio, or relaxing on the pool deck, the clarity of the cosmos above is simply unforgettable.”
Designing Events with Intention
For every couple that gets married at Enchantment, the team is dedicated to making each event within the wedding weekend feel intentionally designed and orchestrated.
“We thoughtfully utilize the resort’s variety of venues so that each gathering has its own unique setting and atmosphere,” says Kayla. “We also work closely with couples to tailor the style and flow of each event, recommending food and service options that best match the tone. For example, if a welcome reception is meant to feel relaxed and social, we might suggest a mix of passed hors d’oeuvres and interactive grazing stations to encourage guests to mingle throughout the space. By highlighting different parts of the resort and customizing the vibe of each event, we help couples craft a weekend that feels dynamic, thoughtful, and uniquely theirs.”
For out-of-town attendees, Enchantment distills the best of Sedona into a single, luxurious weekend: scenic hikes and canyon overlooks just steps from casitas, restorative spa time at Mii amo, and celestial nights that make the stars feel close enough to touch.
“My wish is that they take away a sense of connection—both to one another and to the land itself,” Kayla reflects. “When couples choose Enchantment for their wedding weekend, I hope they and their guests leave with more than just memories of a beautiful celebration; I hope they feel the spirit of this place. The towering red rocks, the quiet desert skies, and the powerful pull of Sedona’s vortexes create an energy that lingers long after the weekend ends. A wedding at Enchantment is not only a celebration of love and togetherness, but an experience that grounds, inspires, and renews through the unmatched magic of Sedona.”
