About

High West Distillery is a historic wedding venue located in Wanship, Utah. This unique destination is home to a distillery that was inspired by the owner, David Perkins, and his biochemistry background. High West Distillery was founded in 2006 and distilling began in 2007. Everything started with a 250-gallon still as well as a saloon that was crafted inside a historic livery stable and garage. The year 2015 saw the opening of a second location where educational sessions and tastings take place. The original saloon drawing in waves of crowds who seek to visit the alpine-inspired gastro-distillery. Since finding success, High West Distillery has entertained visitors through tours, tastings, and charming banter. For weddings, the High West Distillery is a fantastic option for those who are looking for a mountain experience. It sits atop a picturesque mountainside that is just steps from one of their premier, 1,600-gallon copper pot stills.

Hindsight is 20/20 and DAMN High West delivers

I simply cant. Mel and the team at High West was literally so perfect. I was so thankful for them when going through the process - we didn't have a single issue, but also after. I go to weddings and I am just blown away with how bad things can be and how I was SO LUCKY to have picked this team. Truly extraordinary and so flexible. I want to be friends with them forever and I am just so freaking lucky.

Perfect Venue for Wedding Welcome Reception

We are a planning company that produces weddings all over the US and Mexico, so we have worked at numerous venues over the years. We recently planned a destination wedding weekend for a couple in Park City, and used High West Distillery for a welcome reception. We could not have made a better choice. From the start, Melissa showed so much flexibility with our client's special requests. She was also helping in recommending other local vendors (that we ended up being thrilled with - Snow Country Limo and Tavolo specifically). The menus, service, and flow for our event was top notch, and the entire team was so helpful on site. The property and buildings are stunning, and carry such a wonderful sense of place. It was honestly a treat to work at this venue.

Simply the best!!!!

Couldn't pick a better venue to get married at. The HW team was exceptional from beginning to end, especially Mel. She was thorough, creative, and made sure I had everything I wanted for my day. It really is an outstanding brand, the food and drinks were amazing and people were blown away with how attentive and fun the staff was at my wedding. Can't recommend enough!
