Our wedding at Wedgewood Weddings at The Willows in Pine, Colorado was absolutely perfect from start to finish. When we began venue hunting, The Willows was our very first stop — and it ended up being our last. We had three other tours scheduled that day, but the moment we stepped onto the property and met the team, we were completely sold. The venue’s breathtaking beauty, combined with the warmth and professionalism of the staff, made it clear that this was exactly where we wanted to say “I do.” The planning process was unbelievably easy and completely stress-free. I felt so confident that everything was being handled, which allowed me to truly enjoy the journey leading up to the big day. On our wedding day, every detail came together beautifully, and our guests could not stop raving about how stunning the venue was, how amazing the food tasted, and how smoothly everything ran. The food was phenomenal — so many guests told us it was the best wedding meal they’d ever had. The included vendors Wedgewood works with were equally incredible. Our officiant delivered a heartfelt, memorable ceremony, and Cakes Amore made the most delicious carrot cake we’ve ever had — it was a huge hit with everyone! A heartfelt thank you to the amazing Wedgewood team who went above and beyond for us: • Caryn, our wonderful coordinator, who made sure everything ran flawlessly and let us simply enjoy every moment. • Aiden, our attentive banquet captain, who ensured every detail was perfect. • Kyle, our friendly and caring server, who made our guests feel so well looked after. • Sebastian, who worked behind the scenes in prep to make sure everything was perfect. • Christy, our fantastic bartender, who kept drinks flowing and everyone smiling. • Hunter and Kevin, our hardworking dishwashers, whose behind-the-scenes efforts made everything run seamlessly. We can’t imagine having gotten married anywhere else. Wedgewood at The Willows exceeded every single expectation and gave us a wedding day we will cherish forever.

This venue is beautiful!! We got married here in April (Mountainside ceremony, Colorado room cocktail hour and Albert’s lodge reception). It was the perfect Colorado backdrop for our out of town guests. The venue provides the chairs for ceremony, shuttle services between the ceremony and reception, and kept the fireplaces running throughout the night but the external vendors take care of pretty much everything else. Just remember that because of preferred/required vendors everything adds up quickly! We did have a great experience with all of the recommended and required vendors. The one thing I would have changed about the venue is if they could have opened the Colorado room wall/doors. It was 80 degrees but they don’t open them until after May 1.

We got married here a little under a year ago and absolutely loved it. Our non-negotiables while looking for a venue were no curfew for music/dancing, having our wedding party stay onsite with us and being able to choose our own vendors. This place hit the mark! You cannot beat the accommodations, it’s such a unique experience for friends and family and we had so much fun getting to stay a few days before our wedding. There are wildflowers all over the property which just adds to the natural bliss and beauty of your big day. The owner and her family are some of the sweetest, most genuine people and we have kept in touch since our big day. We can’t wait to show our kids one day and create even more memories.

Our wedding day at Wild Basin Lodge was truly everything we dreamed of and more. From the moment we chose the venue, Lauren and the entire Wild Basin Lodge team made us feel supported, cared for, and genuinely excited about every detail of our day. The venue itself is absolutely breathtaking. The mountain setting, beautiful ceremony space, and warm, inviting lodge created the perfect atmosphere for celebrating with our closest friends and family. Every detail came together beautifully—from the orchids and décor to the reception and our first dance. It felt elegant and romantic while still being completely personal to us. The food was absolutely incredible! People are still talking about how delicious everything was, which says so much about the quality and care that went into the meal. It was truly one of the highlights of the evening. What made the experience even more special was the staff. They were professional, organized, attentive, and incredibly kind. They anticipated what we needed, kept everything running smoothly, and allowed us to be fully present instead of worrying about logistics. Our family and friends are still talking about how beautiful the venue was, how wonderfully the team treated everyone, and how much fun they had. Wild Basin Lodge gave us more than a beautiful wedding—it gave us memories we will cherish for the rest of our lives. We are so grateful to Lauren and the entire team for making our day feel effortless, meaningful, and unforgettable.

Thank you for giving us the perfect beginning to our married life! —Brandi & Mike Crawford

My husband and I had a list of venues to look at. Estes Park was a big wish and once we toured Della Terra, we canceled all other showings and booked immediately. Best decision and no regrets. We really wanted a weekend wedding. Della Terra has incredible suites AND cute cabins on-site, all with hot tubs. This allowed our entire wedding party and family to book and stay onsite. We booked two years in advance which helped us take advantage of the availability. This meant no driving around the day of, breakfast included onsite, and being able to socialize and hangout with family and friends the night before, the morning of and the evening after the wedding. Not to mention our guests were spoiled to stay at such a gorgeous venue with incredible suites. Ashlyn J was our wedding coordinator. Which was included in our package. This was a huge bonus. We had 3 meetings throughout the planning, virtual made it easy, and we created our timeline from there. Della Terra has a bunch of unique opportunities onsite like pedal toss for photos and cocktail hour on the patio and late night nacho bar! We even had dancing and reception outside!! I didn’t know what to expect but Ashlyn was incredible. She was so upbeat, friendly, positive and helpful. From the very first meeting we were impressed and felt confident she had us covered. I really valued the fact that Della Terra had a wedding coordinator included for us. I think it made a world of difference and really showed the value to myself but also my family. They couldn’t say enough good things about the entire experience and Ashlyn and Piper and the team! Piper made all our guests feel welcomed and she made me feel super calm before going down the aisle. I knew our rehearsal would be chaotic because it was the first day and I had a huge wedding party. Ashlyn made it so smooth and easy. It honestly was a great first step at putting everyone at ease and they just started to enjoy the weekend and let things be because Ashlyn had it covered. The woman’s get ready room is absolutely stunning and we got to walk right out to the patio throughout the day and enjoyed the perfect weather. We used all vendors that worked with the venue often or in house. This also allowed for a smooth set up and take down. I never saw a contract and I didn’t have to worry because they were used to the venue. Definitely recommend doing it that way. Overall I highly recommend this venue. My wedding was a dream come true. The best day of my life and I couldn’t thank Wedgewood weddings enough for all the care and support they put into our day. Thank you!!!! Photo cred: @lizosban Instagram and Facebook

We were so happy to have found this AMAZING venue!!! The whole staff made the whole planning process so easy. They were all so communicative and prompt with a response with all of my silly questions! They really did go above and beyond to make our wedding amazing. Our guests had the best experience. The outdoor ceremony and tent reception were stunning! Food, drinks, music.... everything was great! We opted for a brunch wedding. We had never thought about that before, but they made it so wonderful, and wouldn't have wanted it any other way! LOVED all of the options we had for everything! If we could have our wedding every weekend we would do it at Boulder Creek by Wedgewood!!

We highly, highly recommend Juniper as the venue for your upcoming wedding! We first visited Juniper 3 years prior to our wedding as lodge guests and knew immediately it was where we wanted to have our wedding. We ultimately did not search for any other venues as we knew just from one visit it was the venue for us. Ashley & Alea have curated such an incredible space and it was the perfect setting for our wedding. As a lesbian couple, it also was a huge draw for us to support a queer, women owned business. We knew we wanted a smaller, intimate wedding & Juniper was the perfect setting for doing so. Their packages were very reasonable & the Meadow Ceremony space was a huge draw for where we envisioned saying I do. They also had an outstanding list of preferred vendors which significantly helped throughout the planning process. As hosts for our wedding, they were easy to work with & also made our day feel extra special! We had some very specific asks in terms of music playlists, bar choices & table scapes which they were very attentive to & accommodated. During our final walk through meeting (which they accommodated virtually since we are an out of town couple!) they were very clear on all the moving pieces for day of & prepping for our wedding Day of - Ashley & Alea were present the entire time & worked very well with all our vendors & wedding planners to make our day 100% smooth. Even with some weather rolling through shortly before our ceremony, they were on deck to adjust as needed. The entire evening went off without a hitch and ultimately the ceremony space & reception space were everything we envisioned, thanks to their execution. If you are looking for an all encompassing wedding venue that is in a gorgeous setting, welcoming environment & with genuinely kind & attentive hosts, Juniper is just the place! Our wedding was the most magical, perfect day & it not only is due to Juniper itself, but especially thanks to Ashley & Alea who we are very grateful for bringing our fairytale wedding come to be! The best part - we can come back and visit our venue anytime we want to! Photos: Kate Ivy Photography

We had a previous venue that double booked our date after we mailed save the dates, so we were in a bit of a scramble to find a nice spot for the same weekend. Meadow Creek came through for us as a gorgeous place to spend a perfect weekend! Their team was kind and patient and organized, their partnership with A Touch of Bliss was so helpful, and their on-site caretaker was awesome! The location is conveniently close to Denver for our guests who didn’t want to stay in the mountains, but it was also high enough that we got to enjoy the mountain vibes we very much wanted at our wedding. The lodging was comfortable and pleasant, the views are lovely, and we are so glad we got married there! Would 100% recommend it!!

We had the chance to DJ a wedding here recently and it was absolutely gorgeous. The ceremony takes place right down by the Colorado River, which creates a really special, intimate setting with the water and canyon walls all around you. From there, guests head up to the reception area on the terrace, which overlooks the river and mountains—such a cool transition and a great way to separate the spaces. The patio setup for dinner and dancing is beautiful and feels very “Colorado.” Overall, it’s a really unique venue that combines a true outdoor experience with a polished reception space. Definitely a great option for couples looking for something memorable and a little different. — Nathan & Kyann Firefly Entertainment

If you want to wow friends and family with a spectacular wedding, have it at Piney. The amount of compliments my husband and I have received on the venue, food, staff, atmosphere, everything was above and beyond - and we have Piney and the incredible Piney staff to thank for making our wedding so unforgettable. We had our wedding the last day of the season - end of September - and the Aspen leaves were amazing. We had not one, not two, but three moose show up, bald eagles flying over us during our wedding vows, and sunshine. It was the most magical day of my life. Beyond the incredible setting, the staff at Piney made the whole planning experience wonderful. We didn't worry about a single thing, because Hollie and Mo kept us organized, suggested ideas to bring our wedding vision to life, and helped us make our dream wedding a reality. We stayed at the cabins with friends after the wedding reception wrapped up and had the opportunity to stay up late, sitting around a campfire, and talking about all of the wonderful memories from the day. I wouldn't change a single thing. The amount of family and friends who have told my husband and I that it was the best wedding they had ever been to reinforces that it isn't just my rose colored post-wedding love bubble doing the talking here, this venue is a show stopper.

Our experience with The Lost Dutchman Event Center was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we first reached out, their communication was easy, thorough, and incredibly kind. The venue itself is simply beautiful, with a gorgeous lake view that provided the perfect backdrop for our wedding day. The space was clean and cozy, and we felt we got great value for our money. They went above and beyond to make our day special - they let us use some of their leftover pumpkins to complement our decor, and even made a special to-go plate for my husband and I after the reception. The staff was communicative and helpful throughout the entire planning process, and made everything so easy for us, from picking the menu to setup and cleanup.

They went out of their way multiple times to ensure our comfort and it was so appreciated. Leading up to the day, they were very communicative and so welcoming with each visit we made.

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!

We celebrated our wedding on May 30, 2026, at Elkwood Manor, and from the very first tour, we knew this was the perfect place for our special day. Jim and Odilia are truly exceptional hosts. Their passion for what they do shines through in everything they do. Since we were planning from out of state, having such attentive, responsive, and organized hosts was amazing. They promptly answered every question, provided guidance when we needed advice, and worked closely with us to bring our vision to life. We stayed onsite with our family, and everyone was impressed by their hospitality, attention to detail, cleanliness of the venue, and the breathtaking views surrounding the property. Every area of Elkwood Manor serves up stunning scenery, making the entire experience feel magical. The food deserves special recognition. The menu options were outstanding, and every dish was delicious. Odilia is truly a master in the kitchen, and our guests continue to talk about their meal. Our wedding day was flawless. Their "Dream Team" absolutely lived up to its name. They set everything up even more beautifully than we imagined, provided seamless and efficient food service, kept everything spotless throughout the evening, and worked behind the scenes to ensure every transition happened effortlessly. Whether it was moving tables to open the dance floor or attending to the many details we never even noticed, they handled it all with professionalism and genuine kindness. Jim kept the celebration going behind the bar, and the vibe was perfect all evening. We used our own Spotify playlists, and the sound quality at the venue was great. The thoughtful touches they included—from the ceremony livestream for loved ones who couldn't attend to the countless little details throughout the day—made our wedding feel incredibly personal and special just as we wanted. We cannot thank Jim, Odilia, and their entire team enough for making our ceremony and reception everything we dreamed of and more. If you're considering Elkwood Manor, don't hesitate! You’ll be in caring, capable hands and surrounded by the incredible beauty of Pagosa Springs. We are beyond grateful for the memories they helped us create and will cherish them forever!

The Platte River Fort is an absolutely beautiful venue! We had our wedding there and I wouldn’t have wanted to get married anywhere else. We coordinated with Cindy and she was beyond helpful helping us book and getting everything ready for our big day. The only reason I wouldn’t give this place 5 stars is all of the hidden fees that were not mentioned or included in the package we booked. Long story short, you will all of a sudden find yourself paying them hourly after you have paid for a whole package and then some. The owners and management need to be more clear on every detail. And of course as many places and events are, the alcohol and bartenders are triple the amount. It would’ve been cheaper to hire a third party bartending vendor to come serve.
