Newlyweds skiing down the resort’s final strip of snow in full wedding attire!

After extending its season later than ever before, the ski resort closed out the historic run with a memorable wedding moment, as newlyweds raced down Victor Glacier in their wedding regalia the morning after their nuptials. In a Facebook post Boyne Mountain Resort shared,

Congrats to Allison & Ryan for pulling off one of the most iconic newlywed moves we’ve ever seen at Boyne Mountain. Not only did they ski the morning after their wedding… they did it during the latest closing weekend in Boyne Mountain history. Legendary timing.

The narrow ribbon of snow known as Victor Glacier survived through Memorial Day weekend in northern Michigan, while most Midwest ski resorts shut down weeks ago. Here in Southwest Michigan one of our local ski resorts, Timber Ridge in Gobles, Michigan, closed for their season on March 5, 2026.

A post-wedding ski run down Boyne Mountain in full wedding attire is already iconic, so I'm just going to go ahead and assume Allison and Ryan are just as adventurous in everyday life.

My advice? They should mark their one-year anniversary with another historic run! Congrats to the happy couple.
