Four days, two home bases
We're spread across two neighboring properties — the Oasis and the Villa — a few minutes' walk apart. Meals, the reception, and most of the weekend happen at the Oasis; the ceremony itself is next door at the Labyrinth. Here's the shape of the weekend, mile by mile.
Zion Red Rock
Everything happens on Zion Red Rock's property, split across three spots a short walk from each other: the Oasis and the Villa for lodging and most of the weekend, the Labyrinth for the ceremony itself.
The Oasis
955 West 250 S, Rockville, UT 84763
zionredrock.com/zionredrockoasis
A 14,000 sq. ft. estate on 15 acres with 360° views, a private lake, and its own stretch of the Virgin River.
- Pool with slide, hot tub, sauna, theater
- Indoor turf soccer field + volleyball net
- Private lake — kayaks, paddle boards, and life vests on site
- Game room: ping pong, shuffleboard, board games
The Villa
991 W 230 S, Rockville, UT 84763
zionredrock.com/zionredrockvilla
Almost 12,000 sq. ft. on 15 acres, Mediterranean-meets-western in style, with a wraparound deck and 360° views. Lodging for part of the group — see Lodging below.
- Pool, hot tub, sauna, private theater
- 2 full-size pickleball courts

Why April
The park's own case for the season — cottonwoods budding, temps mild, crowds thinner than summer.
Vegas in, Zion by canyon road
- Fly into Las Vegas (LAS) — or St. George (SGU) if that's easier for you
- Rent a car
- Drive to Zion: ~2h 30min from Vegas, ~60min from St. George
Share a ride from the airport
Since a lot of you are flying into Vegas, we wanted to make it easy to connect — here's a sheet where you can post if you need a ride or if you've got an extra seat in your rental, and coordinate directly with whoever's a match.

Claim your spot for the weekend
We've got two neighboring properties — the Oasis and the Villa — a ~7 minute, 0.3 mile walk apart, both a short walk from the Labyrinth where the ceremony happens. Rooms are locked in at this point, and the Narrows is now full too — just 2 bunkhouse stalls are still open below. Grab one before it's gone; if everything fills up, we'll help you find something nearby.
No early check-in — we've confirmed with the property that check-in cannot happen before the standard time, so plan arrival accordingly.
The Oasis
On site: sauna, theater, and a private lake — paddle boards and kayaks are provided, no need to bring your own.
The bunkhouse has 7 separate stalls behind rolling barn doors. Bathrooms are community-style: a changing room with 4 changing stalls, 2 toilet rooms, and 2 showers.
Polka and Thunder sit directly across from each other in the bunkhouse — Western-themed, open-ceiling stalls with a rolling barn door for privacy, each sleeping up to 4 and sharing the bunkhouse’s community-style shower, bathroom, and changing room.
The Villa
On site: sauna, theater, and pickleball courts — paddles are provided, no need to bring your own.
Fill out the room form
Sharing a room with someone? Just one of you needs to fill this out — we'll follow up to confirm the assignment. If you haven't filled this out yet, please do — we can't hold a spot without it.
Open the room form →Zion & Springdale run sparse and pricey
Grocery stops are limited this close to the park, so it's worth grabbing what you need on the way in rather than once you've arrived.
BBQ at the Oasis. Cannon and I are grilling — hot dogs, brats, and burgers, plus buns, with disposable plates and utensils. We've got the mains covered.
Condiments & sides — claim a line
We need help rounding out the table. Sign up for something so we don't end up with ten bags of chips and no ketchup.
Open the sign-up sheet →Corndogs at the Oasis around noon, then the ceremony at 5:30pm at the Labyrinth, followed by drinks, dinner, and speeches back at the Oasis starting around 7pm. Afterparty details TBD — more soon. See the Wedding Day section below for the full hour-by-hour timeline.
A lazy start, then exploring Zion at your own pace — e-bikes and the canyon if you're up for it, or just relax. See the sign-up below if you want in on the group e-bike rate.
The wedding day, hour by hour
Here's how Saturday actually unfolds — keep this page handy so you know where to be and when.
No planned breakfast, eat at your own pace — this is what our planning sheet is for if you want to bring something for the group, or just tackle on your own.
Corndog truck at the Oasis.
Drinks start at the Oasis.
Ceremony at the Labyrinth.
Drinks and snacks back at the Oasis.
Dinner, buffet style. Speeches happen here too — we welcome anyone who wants to say something, we love speeches long and short.
Either the Oasis indoor soccer field or the Villa Grand Room — this might end up being a game-day choice, we'll confirm which closer to the date.
Keep it comfortable, keep it you
It's a wedding! Annette and Cannon are pretty laid back, and so should you be. Historically it gets up to about 70° during the day out there, but nights cool off — layers are your friend.
- Swimsuits for the lake or pool
- Clothes for adventures — hiking, e-bikes, whatever you're up for
- Something slightly nicer for wedding day
Zion National Park & e-bikes
Let us know what you're up for so we can lock in group numbers — e-bike rentals through Zion Outfitter give a group discount (10% at 8+ riders, 20% at 25+), but only if enough of us sign on.
Park visit & e-bikes — tell us your group size
Interested in the park, an e-bike, or both? Add yourself and how many are in your group so we know if we can hit the discount tiers.
Open the sign-up sheet →Coffee, eggs & other odds and ends
This sheet isn't meant to be exhaustive — please add to it if you plan to bring something to share. Coffee, eggs, snacks, whatever else — note it here so we don't end up with six dozen eggs and no coffee.
Claim an item
Coffee, creamer, eggs, snacks — whatever you're happy to bring — a quick note here keeps the group from doubling up.
Open the planning sheet →Your presence is a present
We know figuring all of this out is a lot, and we're so grateful you're coming. That's the gift — we don't want any others.
