Unfortunately Sparkling Hills is no longer a wedding venue and does not allow ceremonies or receptions on its property. That said, it still makes a great location for brides/grooms to get ready before their wedding. The rooms all have floor to ceiling windows and offer incredible views of Lake Okanagan. The minimal interiors, interesting lighting and Swarovski crystals make for great photos opportunities. The resort has a strict policy regarding wedding photos on the property (other than inside their actual hotel rooms) but I’ve scouted the area extensively and know of a few great locations where pictures are allowed. If you are still wanting to host your wedding in the Okanagan I highly recommend the following venues:
50th Parallel Estate Winery // My favorite in the area and arguably the best wedding venue in the Okanagan. As it is only a 15 minute drive away, Sparkling Hills Resort makes the perfect getting ready location for weddings at 50th Parallel
Predator Ridge // Located on the same property as Sparkling Hills, Predator Ridge was a finalist in 2019 for best wedding venue in BC. This golf course wedding venue has ballroom with hosts 150 people and two outdoor ceremony options.
