Our Seewiese offers a beautiful setting for outdoor weddings from April to September for groups of 30 or more – with a view of Lake Zurich and surrounded by nature. As an alternative in case of bad weather, ceremonies can be held in our Festsaal or the Küsnachterstube. We leave the choice of officiant and the design of the decorations entirely up to your personal preferences. Upon request, we are happy to take care of the organisation for an additional fee. For the ceremony, we charge a flat rate of CHF 1,500.00 for up to 60 guests. For 61 guests or more, an additional organisational fee of CHF 450.00 will apply.
Included in the price are the following services:
- Reservation of the Seewiese (partial area)
- Use of the Festsaal for the ceremony in case of rain
- Provision of infrastructure
- Set-up and dismantling
- Use of the Festsaal or Küsnachterstube for the ceremony as a bad weather option
A non-religious wedding can only be booked in combination with a wedding reception meal at our hotel.
