Planning a wedding in Summit County, Colorado, comes with stunning views, breathtaking venues, and… breathlessness? Whether you’re tying the knot in Breckenridge, Keystone, or Copper Mountain, one thing your guests may not be prepared for is the altitude. That’s where oxygen bars step in—not just as a fun wellness feature, but as a smart, crowd-pleasing addition that elevates your event in every sense of the word.
Oxygen Bars: More Than a Trend
Oxygen bars have quickly become a go-to entertainment feature for mountain weddings. But they’re not just trendy—they’re practical. With oxygen therapy known to support the respiratory system, improve energy levels, and reduce shortness of breath, it makes sense to incorporate this relaxing, health-conscious option into your reception.
At high elevations like those found in Summit County, some guests (especially those coming from sea level) may feel the effects of altitude sickness, such as headache, nausea, or fatigue. Adding an oxygen bar can help relieve those symptoms and keep everyone feeling refreshed, clear-headed, and ready to hit the dance floor.
What Makes Oxygen Bars Ideal for Weddings?
Here’s why an oxygen bar might just be the perfect match for your mountain wedding:
1. High Altitude Relief
Venues in Breckenridge or Copper Mountain sit at over 9,000 feet in elevation. At this height, oxygen levels in the air drop, which can affect oxygen saturation in the blood. Our recreational oxygen stations help combat this by delivering purified oxygen through a nasal cannula, giving guests a boost in minutes.
2. Custom Scents for a Memorable Experience
Summit Oxygen offers a variety of natural, tea-based oxygen bar scents like Wild Berry, Mint, Citrus, and Cinnamon Apple. These subtle, soothing aromas enhance the oxygen therapy experience—providing not only physical relief but mental health benefits through aromatherapy and relaxation.
3. Interactive Entertainment
Your oxygen bar can be beautifully integrated into your reception space with LED lighting, scent display cubes, and a knowledgeable oxygen attendant to guide guests through the experience. This makes the bar both functional and fun—perfect for socializing and a great icebreaker.
4. Supports Guest Wellness
Your guests will appreciate this thoughtful touch. While they’re sipping champagne or dancing into the night, they’ll also be improving their breathing, boosting oxygen concentration, and reducing the impact of elevation-related inflammation, pressure changes, or fatigue.
Two Setup Options to Fit Your Venue
Summit Oxygen offers flexible rental packages based on your location, seating needs, and reception length:
Option 1: Use your own tables and chairs – average package $850–$1500
Option 2: Summit Oxygen provides a fully lighted bar setup – average package $1250–$2000
Both options include a professional attendant, unlimited disposable cannulas, customized scents, and even pulse oximeter readings for entertainment.
