Winter Wedding in St. Moritz – When Exclusivity Feels Like Home Written by Melanie Thun, Wedding Planner
Intro
There are weddings that are beautiful – and those that you carry in your heart forever. Natalie and Kory's winter wedding in St. Moritz was definitely one of those: touching, stylish and full of warmth – in the middle of the snowy Swiss Alps.
Why St. Moritz?
For the couple, St. Moritz was more than just a backdrop. This was where they got engaged – and this was exactly where they wanted to celebrate their story. The place is elegant but warm; sophisticated, yet approachable. The surrounding nature creates a feeling that is hard to put into words.
The weekend began with a cosy get-together. Over champagne and chocolate fondue, family and friends gathered, laughed, told stories and sensed that this weekend was going to be special.
What makes St. Moritz so special
It's not just about the wedding day itself, but the whole experience: a weekend full of shared memories – from snow polo to walks through the snow-covered village. St. Moritz combines nature, elegance and hospitality in a way that stays with you.
Hint
The wedding day
In the morning, the bride got ready with a view of the frozen lake while snow fell gently outside. Many guests had travelled from the USA – even the train journey through the wintry mountain landscape was an experience in itself.
The cogwheel railway took them up the mountain to the ceremony. There, surrounded by snow, sun and mountains, Natalie and Kory said ‘I do’. White roses, eucalyptus and candlelight created a calm, elegant atmosphere. After the ceremony, everyone warmed up with mulled wine, Baileys coffee and hot chocolate – a small, unforgettable moment.

Dinner
In the evening, dinner followed – a menu of fine Swiss specialities, accompanied by caviar, champagne and candlelight. The atmosphere was intimate and warm, almost like a family celebration.

My mission as a wedding planner in Switzerland
As an exclusive wedding planner in Switzerland, I plan weddings that combine emotion, aesthetics and perfection. My expertise lies in creating tailor-made experiences that are not only visually impressive, but also touching. I assist international couples who wish to get married in Switzerland – in locations such as Badrutt's Palace in St. Moritz, The Chedi Andermatt or the Villa Emden on Brissago Island. I combine local expertise with international standards: from selecting regional florists and stylish decoration concepts to meticulous planning. My goal is for every couple, regardless of where they come from, to feel completely at home on their special day.
