Our private romantic sleigh ride for up to 4 adults and very small children that can fit on your lap. It is the perfect way to propose, celebrate an anniversary, have an intimate wedding or just snuggle up with those close to you. Imagine yourself and your beloved gliding through an enchanted, snow covered forest in our majestic one-horse open sleigh. You are laughing or chatting, or singing “Jingle Bells” as you take in the wonderful mountain surroundings of the White River National Forest.
Add a Private Photographer to your Ride
We have partnered with And Two Were Tamed Photography who are able to capture your proposal, wedding, family vacation, or date night in a unique winter setting. With a range of sessions to choose from, our photographer will capture candid moments throughout your sleigh ride to document your experience. After your sleigh ride ends, you can share and relive your experience through the edited photos provided in an online gallery.
About the sleigh
The sleigh used for our exclusive romantic sleigh rides was custom made just for us and is modeled after the Hudson Valley Sleigh (1850-1901) that was used only by the wealthy elite of the day. Black with burgundy leather seats, our swan-bodied sleigh exemplifies the elegance prevalent during the Victorian era. Made for 2-4 riders, our sleigh is designed with vis-a-vis seating to encourage caroling, conversation or quiet reflection as you listen to the jingle of the sleigh bells, the swish of the sleigh runners on the snow, and the rhythmic footfalls of the horse.
About the Exclusive Ride Horses
The sleigh for our romantic rides can be pulled by a beautiful Belgian draft horse named Ruby. A blond bombshell, Ruby is 16 hands high and weighs 1800 pounds! Calm and easy going, Ruby enjoys her job, and being our only lady in the herd of boys.
Here is June, she is a grey dappled Percheron, we sometimes have her on loan during the winter from Vigilante Carriages when she is not competing in Draft Horse shows. Her specialty is elopement photos, she always matches the bride to be with her grey speckles, though she loves to try and eat the proposal flowers.
This is Willie. He is a Red Roan Belgian, and tends to be a beautiful shade of pink. He is a charmer, and will snuggle up in any photo. He adores the taste of fur and will slobber all over any kind of fur wrap you might wear.
Golden Horseshoe Sleigh Rides specializes in these exclusive private rides. If you have any special requests that would make your celebration more memorable, please call or email us and let us know!
