About

We would love to host your wedding here at the Alpenhorn Bed & Breakfast. We will customize packages to fit your needs, desires and budget for your special day. As each wedding is unique, it is important for us to find out exactly what you’re looking for. You can rent the entire inn and grounds for the weekend, or just the garden and bridal suite Sunday-Friday. Finding the right venue is your first step in planning your outdoor garden wedding. You can view our wedding video on our website at www.alpenhorn.com on the homepage. If you scroll to the bottom of the page you’ll see pictures of the garden which you can click on and do a 360. Also, on the accommodations page, you can see the rooms and also do a 360 view. If you like what you see, and would like to make an appointment to view the inn and gardens in person and discuss any questions you have, please give us a call at 909-866-5700.

About the Alpenhorn B & B, we are a modern mountain inn situated on two naturally landscaped acres of alpine forest.The tranquil gardens have a stream and pond with green lawns surronded by ponderosa pines.Centrally located just blocks the Lake, Village and Ski Slopes. Originally a three bedroom house built in 1991. We remodeled and opened as an eight bedroom bed and breakfast in 1999. We have been given the AAA four diamond awards consecutively for eleven years in a row, for outstanding cleanliness and hospitality. We are the only four diamond facility in San Bernardino County. Each of our luxurious rooms are tastefully decorated with either a king or queen size feather bed, Flat screen T.V. w/DVD, gas fire place, private bathrooms, most have spa tubs for two and separate showers. Six of our rooms have private decks. We provide turn down service in the evening and refresh the rooms in the morning. We offer wine with hors d’oeuvres in the afternoon, liqueurs and cordials in the evening, and our gourmet breakfast in the morning. We have wireless internet, massage chairs, many DVDs, books, games, magazines as well as table tennis available.

It has been our pleasure to host many couples; weddings, elopements, honeymoons, anniversaries, birthdays, family reunions and romantic getaways. We have had intimate private elopements with just a single couple and larger garden ceremonies and receptions with as many as 200 people. It is an ideal place for a summer garden wedding, as it is much cooler in Big Bear, than down the mountain.

Why choose our bed & breakfast for your wedding venue? At our B & B you get to relax and enjoy your time celebrating with your family and friends for the entire weekend, rather than rushing here and there and just renting a hall for a few hours. For instance, the bridal party (up to 18 people) would check in on Friday, have hors d’oeuvres, do a rehearsal and then have a rehearsal dinner(catered in, out on the lake or at one of our local restaurants). In the morning they all enjoy our gourmet breakfast together. No stress. Everyone is right here to assist you in all the preparations. Our grounds are transformed into your romantic garden oasis. You don’t even have to drive to the chapel or reception site, you’re already here! Your other guests arrive to witness your vows and celebrate your nuptials. You and your beloved, pledge your love to one another in our peaceful, serene environment. Afterwards, there’s plenty of time to commemorate this joyous occasion surrounded by blue skies and towering pines. Then, after a magical night, you arise to another gourmet breakfast with your loved ones before going off on your honeymoon.

Beautiful Venue and friendly staff

My husband and I had our wedding at the Alpenhorn Bed and Breakfast on October 13, 2018. We are SO glad we made the decision to use this venue. We were able to host our entire wedding party at the Alpenhorn, meaning we got to spend an entire weekend celebrating with our close friends and family. The bed and breakfast is so beautiful and the meals that Johann and his staff make are absolutely amazing. Despite the odds, our wedding day was filled with thunderstorms all morning. However, Johann helped us formulate an indoor backup plan just in case the rain didn't stop. Luckily, the rain stopped just in time and we were able to celebrate in their beautiful outdoor space. Overall, having our wedding at the Alpenhorn was an unforgettable experience. I would highly recommend them to anyone who asked.

My wedding day was so perfect! Everything was beautiful! The whole weekend was amazing! Friday night was the rehearsal and dinner which was so special. The wedding party stayed that night so that everybody would be up the mountain already for the wedding day. I totally recommend doing this because it was such a memorable experience for me to be with my family and friends the night before my big day! Linda the owner of the beautiful bed and breakfast was so sweet! She made everything so special. She prepared a beautiful breakfast the day of my wedding for all of us with plate settings and candles. The rooms that we stayed in were very nice especially the bride's room! I cannot say enough about this place and Linda everything was gorgeous and perfect! My wedding was exactly how imagined it! Alpenhorn is very charming. The grounds are breathtaking which made my wedding so beautiful! I am truly so thankful and blessed to have been able to have my special day here. It was an amazing experience! :)

I recently had my wedding and reception at the Alpenhorn. The Alpenhorn provides amazingly picturesque grounds for both your ceremony and receptions. All my guests raved about how beautiful it was! You have you ceremony in the private “back garden” and your reception in the beautiful front garden by a man made stream. The lighting was beautiful. Every little detail was taken care of. The inn owner, Linda, was gracious, accommodating, and extremely helpful. The inn itself if beautiful and was great for getting ready. We stayed the night before and Linda’s breakfast was delicious! The quiche she makes is to die for! I would highly recommended the Alpenhorn as a ceremony and reception venue!
