As a vendor who works regularly at Boulder Creek, I can say that not only are they amazing to work with as a vendor, but couples are always blown away with their wedding. They are organized, communicative, and friendly. The venue itself is really pretty - the creekside ceremony location is truly magical. It's remote feeling but you have the convenience of downtown Boulder right down the road.

From the moment we inquired about hosting our wedding reception at Flagstaff House Restaurant, their team was incredibly prompt and effective in their communication via email. Their coordination and smooth running of the entire process leading up to and on our wedding day was absolutely perfect. The food they provided was truly amazing, and many of our guests raved that it was the best they had ever had at a wedding. We could not have asked for a better venue to celebrate our special day. Flagstaff House Restaurant exceeded all of our expectations, and we highly recommend them to any couple looking for an amazing wedding experience. Annie helped us through the whole wedding process and Casey ran our wedding flawlessly on the actual day. They anticipated any need we had before we even knew. It was nothing short of amazing and the view was stunning. All of our friends and family raved about every detail. Thanks so much for everything!!
