Tucked into the heart of the Tyrolean Alps, just outside the charming village of Biberwier, lies a little pocket of paradise called LaPosch – Dein Bergaway. It’s the kind of place you stumble upon in a daydream. The kind of place that invented quiet luxury.
For couples craving a deeply personal, nature-infused wedding experience in the mountains, LaPosch offers just that. It’s rare to find a place that gives you space to breathe, time to connect, and a setting so cinematic it almost feels unreal. But what I love most about this venue, beyond the alpine beauty and the luxurious chalets, is the vibe. LaPosch isn’t flashy. It’s refined yet grounded. It's the kind of venue that doesn’t scream for attention but quietly earns it. If you're the kind of couple who’d rather trade ballrooms for pine trees and heels for hiking boots, and wants to eliminate the pressure to perform, LaPosch might just be your place.
Private Chalets and Majestic Peaks: A Place to Be Together
Imagine waking up on your wedding day to the quiet rustle of wind in the pines, wrapped in a cozy robe, coffee in hand and sitting next to your partner quietly watching the morning mist evaporate. You step outside, breathe in crisp alpine air, and feel time slow down. This moment is rare on wedding days but at LaPosch these moments are easy to come by.
LaPosch is not a traditional wedding venue—and that’s exactly what makes it magic. Rather than a central hotel or lodge, the Austrian mountain property is made up of 16 chalets that have been designed to provide you and your guests with that Tyrolean comfort and down-to-earth luxury. You can choose to exchange vows in a small chapel, in an alpine forest, or out in a wildflower soaked meadow. Your wedding guests can soak in the mountain views during cocktail hour out on the restaurant’s terrace. Meanwhile, you and your partner are lacing up your hiking boots and heading out for an epic newlywed portrait session. As the sun sets, dinner is underway inside the restaurant. A carefully selected 3-course menu with seasonal products from local suppliers is paired with your favorite wines. The environment is warm, intimate and full of love and laughter.
This is not a place for a rigid timeline or a jam-packed day that is over in a blink. This intimate mountain wedding venue in Austria is a place that allows you to fully immerse yourself into the wedding day and soak up all the feels that you’ll remember for a lifetime. This is a place that lets you just be together.
For the Wild at Heart: Adventure-Infused Elopements in Austria
One of the reasons I’m drawn to LaPosch is how beautifully it balances luxury and ruggedness. You can spend your morning getting a massage or soaking in your private outdoor hot tub…and then throw on hiking boots for a scenic trek to an alpine lake. It’s the kind of contrast that my couples tend to crave—the blend of elegance and exploration, calm and exhilaration.
LaPosch is located in the Zugspitz Arena, which means you’re surrounded by endless hiking trails, crystal-clear lakes, and snow-dusted peaks. Whether you’re eloping or bringing your closest circle of family and friends for an intimate celebration, this region offers something special for every season.
In spring and summer, wildflowers bloom in the high meadows, perfect for picnics and barefoot ceremonies.
In autumn, golden trees and dramatic skies turn the mountains into a romantic painting.
And in winter, the snow transforms the chalets into something out of a fairytale—ideal for a cozy, fireside wedding weekend. And, for those that want to incorporate winter activities, like skiing and snowshoeing, into their destination wedding.
A Wedding Weekend to Savor (Not Rush Through)
What I love about planning multi-day weddings in places like LaPosch is the way it gives couples and their guests a full experience—an actual chapter in their lives, not just a single event. Weddings here are more than a day; they’re an experience. You have time to relax, connect deeply with your wedding guests, and realize intimate moments with your partner. You're fully present.
There’s no rushing from one photo op to the next. No stiff traditions, unless you want them. Just you, your love, and 25 people who matter most, wrapped in nature’s beauty and the calmness LaPosch and the surrounding mountains generate.
The Slow Wedding Movement, Alive and Well
I talk a lot about the #SlowWeddingMovement and LaPosch embodies that ethos beautifully. This is a venue that invites you to pause, to breathe, to savor. It doesn’t just provide a backdrop for your wedding, it holds space for you to be fully present in it.
It’s about trading production for presence. Prioritizing intention over impressing. And creating space for connection between you and your partner as well as with your guests and your surroundings.
Planning a Destination Wedding in the Mountains
Of course, planning an intimate mountain wedding in the Alps—especially at a venue as unique as LaPosch—comes with its own set of logistics. And that’s where I come in.
