Whether baptism, birthday, a family celebration or anniversary - we'll make you celebration unforgettable. Because celebrating at Lake Riessersee in Bavaria means: close to nature, individual, cordial. With a maximum of 80 people.

The perfekt season

... does not exist! Because a celebration in the mountains of Garmisch-Partenkirchen, is gorgeous in every season. Both in spring and summer, when the clear mirror of lake Riessersee is reflecting the alps and the deep blue Bavarian heaven. Or in late fall and winter, when the aperitif on the lake terrace will be served by the fire bowl.

The wedding meadow can be used for weddings daily from 11:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. from May to October. Complete set-up including benches with white covers for the guests, chairs with white covers for the bride and groom and speakers and an altar table for a charge of € 500.

DONT'S

Please keep in mind:

Confetti (guns) and any other promotional gifts are strictly forbidden because we are located in the middle of nature and surrounded by meadows. For the grazing cows on these meadows, confetti or something similar could be deadly. It is also important to spare the adjoining properties and keep them clean.

Drone flights are permitted in compliance with legal regulations on our property. In no case other persons or adjoining private properties may be overflown. 

Floating candles on Lake Riessersee are prohibited (fishes, frogs, fire danger on the shore). 

Sky lanterns / flying lampions are not allowed (air traffic control, forest, responibilities).

Firecrackers, which run the risk of landing in the lake, are prohibited. Fireworks have to take place before 22:15 pm. Please send us the permission from the regulatory agency in advance per mail: veranstaltungen(at)riessersee-hotel.de . 

The tradition of raising balloons is decreasing for reasons of sustainability and the protection of animals, especially birds.
