From the very first interaction, their communication was fast, helpful, and easy - they made the planning process a breeze.

The venue itself was absolutely beautiful, with breathtaking views that provided the perfect backdrop for our special day. The quality of their work and attention to detail ensured that our wedding went off without a hitch, and many of our guests commented on how stunning the space was. Of special note, we had many sober guests and they allowed us to supply La Croix for them (which Arrowhead doesn’t normally stock). This was very kind of them to do and allowed our guests who were not drinking to be comfortable at our wedding. We couldn't have imagined a more perfect setting to celebrate our marriage, and we're so grateful to the Arrowhead team for making our vision a reality.

Spruce Mountain was the best venue we could have possibly chosen. My fiancé was sold from the pictures online and when we toured, I spent the whole time just breathless. We were on the upper ranch with the ceremony on Trey's Vista (stunning), cocktail hour in the Spruce Room, and reception in the Ponderosa Room. Communication with them was easy, Tara was our representative and she happily answered all of our questions and communicated seamlessly without overloading our inbox. She even provided me with a preferred vendors list of vendors they have worked with before which created a great starting place for finding vendors. I was a bit skeptical of their requirement of a Day of Coordinator, but I am so thankful that they required it. We didn't have to lift a finger on the wedding day, I wasn't being asked a million questions, it was fantastic. On the wedding day, our property manager came to introduce herself and told us where to find her if we needed her, there was music playing on the TV in the bridal suite, everything was so clean and perfectly set up to start the day. All of our guests could not stop raving about the venue - the views at the ceremony site, having separate spaces for each part of the day, the mix of indoor and outdoor space for the cocktail hour and reception, and so many said "this sets my bar so high for weddings". If I could do my wedding all over again, I would book Spruce with no hesitation!!

Trying to plan a wedding on your own is not for the weak of heart, booking Hummingbird Hill was the absolute easiest decision we had to make. Noah and Serena made our stay and weekend the absolute best. We had been in communication with them for almost 10 months, planning and discussing every detail. They offered photography, shuttle service options, greeted us with a bouquet of flowers, hung twinkle lights over our ceremony area, allowed us to stop at the home for measurements, even stayed for our wedding and helped with tear down and cleaning. When we booked their home we didn’t expect such involvement and love and support they offered. I could not recommend hummingbird hill enough. We are already planning on coming back with friends for our 1 year anniversary.

My husband and I knew we wanted an intimate wedding with less than 20 guests. It was extremely challenging to find a venue that could host both the ceremony and reception that wasn't designed to fit over 100 guests and at the same time was elegant. Then we found Juniper. It was exactly what we were looking for and it was a bonus that it was close enough to Denver so our out of state guests didn't have to drive too far after a full day of travel. Alea and Ashley (the owners) are great to work with and were extremely accommodating and flexible with what we wanted to do. After the wedding our parents were raving about both of them. The venue itself is SO beautiful and we cannot wait to come back and stay at the hotel for our future anniversaries.

We really wanted our wedding to feel like a mountain, wildflower fantasy and Boettcher was perfect! All the staff at Boettcher are amazing!

From our very first contact with The Flagstaff House through to our wedding day, the entire experience was nothing short of amazing. Working directly with Annie was an absolute dream. She was consistently kind, patient, organized, and incredibly caring. As someone who's very detail-oriented, I truly appreciated that Annie didn't let anything go overlooked and was always incredibly responsive to my many questions. By our wedding day, she truly felt like a friend. Everyone warns you that something will inevitably go wrong, but Annie and The Flagstaff House ensured our day was executed flawlessly. Our summer daytime wedding, with approximately 60 guests, was simply perfect. The venue's layout was ideal, allowing for a breathtaking ceremony on the terrace, a comfortable cocktail hour for mingling, an intimate lunch with cherished family speeches, and a lively space for dancing to cap off the celebration. Our guests are still raving about the exceptional service, wonderful staff, incredible food, and delicious drinks. If you're considering a wedding in the Boulder area, I wholeheartedly recommend reaching out to The Flagstaff House today – it was honestly one of the best days and experiences of our lives.

Snow Mountain Ranch was the best venue for our wedding. We reserved a family reunion cabin for our family to stay on-site all weekend, while our friends booked rooms at the lodges, and everyone was able to participate in summer camp activities. A highlight was the tubing hill and the waterfall hike! We also reserved the Mountain Air Cookout Shelter for the reception, and we were able to choose our own caterers. We opted for a pizza truck and a paella chef, and they were a big hit! The shelter was perfectly rustic and had a mountain vibe with excellent views, and SMR provided lawn games outside during our cocktail hour. We were also happy that we could bring our dogs to the reception, and they had a fun time too. There was also a fire pit at the reception site, so we lit a campfire when it got cold after dark. SMR also put us in touch with a local bartender and DJ, Marcie, who knew the venue well and kept the drinks flowing and the dance floor packed all night. The event coordinator, Stephanie, was very communicative throughout the planning process, and I think that everything went perfectly!

My husband and I used Table Mountain as our wedding venue and it was spectacular! The staff was friendly, professional and helpful! Everything was communicated to us in a timely manner and all our plans were executed flawlessly. I recommend using their partners for food/DJ/Photography etc. It gave us peace of mind knowing all the “extra” things were taken care of and coordinated between TMME staff and the other vendors. I’m hoping not to need to get married again but if I ever need a professional, clean and beautiful place to hold any kind of event, I would definitely use Table Mountain again!

We can’t wait to have our wedding reception at Hotel Alpenrock!! From the moment we walked through the doors, the staff — especially Fharron — went above and beyond to make us feel supported and confident in our decision to celebrate such an important day here. Their attention to detail, kindness, and genuine care made it clear we were in the best hands. They took the time to answer all our questions and walk us through the space. The planning process has been very smooth so far, and communication has been quick, clear, and easy. Whether it’s confirming the reception layout, discussing our room block, or checking in on small details, the Hotel Alpenrock team has made everything feel stress-free and exciting. It’s such a relief knowing we have a team behind us that truly cares about making our day perfect, and we are so excited for our guests to experience the level of service and care that we have during our wedding weekend in September. Before we found Hotel Alpenrock, we were feeling so defeated by the lack of options in Breckenridge for a wedding reception with over 150 guests. As soon as we found the hotel, it was a no-brainer. We are so grateful we found Hotel Alpenrock, and we can’t wait to celebrate there with all our family and friends!

We are known for our buffalo and game meats as well as our historical mountain ambiance. The Fort features seven different private areas for your reception, depending on your group size.

When my husband and I (who met at CU) realized that the University of Colorado had started renting space as a wedding venue, we knew we had to see it. Besides both being huge football fans, CU was also very near and dear to our hearts because it was the place that originally brought us together. The views from the rooftop are absolutely breathtaking and the staff worked hard to make sure everything was exactly the way we asked and planned for. I love being able to look back at our wedding day and appreciate how unique our experience was. This venue is a must see!
