We had a wonderful experience working with Brus and the full Spruce Mountain team. They think of everything when it comes to logistics, and we didn't have to worry about a thing from the moment we showed up on wedding day until the end of the night. Our experience touring the venue a year and a half ago, coming back for the Wine & Nosh event, and doing our 30 day walk through all made the planning process so smooth and exciting for us and our families. The multiple ceremony locations are all gorgeous, and we were thrilled to be able to get married mountainside with the natural beauty of Colorado in the background. Our guests loved cocktail hour and the indoor/outdoor dinner & dancing set up. Spruce is truly a 5 star wedding venue because of its natural beauty and the organization/care the team takes in scoping out all the details, like 2 beautiful getting ready suites for the bridesmaids & groomsmen, shuttles to take guests up mountainside, and open air string lights for late night dancing. Spruce is also a popular spot that many of our vendors were familiar with, which made logistics even smoother since our bartenders, caterer, DJ, planner, and florist had all done multiple weddings at Spruce before and had great recommendations on what could work well with our vision. We hope to come back for future events and are so happy to have gotten married at Spruce!

Getting married at Hudson Gardens was the best choice we could have made. We wanted to have an outdoor ceremony but not necessarily go all the way into the mountains, and this was the best of both worlds--beautiful but also convenient for our in-town and out-of-town guests to get to. We got married 6/7/25 at the Monet's Place location (see some of the pictures from our photographer Lo Anderson). Leading up to the wedding, the process for touring the venue, securing our date, and then making sure everything was ready was very smooth and easy. Hudson Gardens had a vendor fair months before our wedding that allowed us to come meet the vendors they partner with, which helped us find our caterer, bar service, and DJ. The day of, the getting ready space was heavenly cool with the AC which was perfect because it was hot and I would have melted otherwise! The signs they provided made it clear where to go for our wedding. The staff was all incredibly professional and friendly. The pedi-cab that took us to and from the getting ready space to the ceremony space allowed me to wear the heels I wanted to and not have to worry about walking--it was also a blessing to have for my great Aunt and our guests we have who have limited mobility to be able to navigate the grounds. We worked with Erin Smith and she was great--she answered all of my questions and was easy to get ahold of during the whole planning process.

Thank you so much to Mountain Crust and their crew for being so amazing. We hosted a Saturday wedding here in late June and it was absolutely stunning. There is enough shade in the lawn to make a big difference in the temp, and when it started to rain during dinner the staff moved our whole party (around 80 people) inside in just a few minutes. Everything turned out really well, and the venue is just gorgeous. Nico, the venue manager, was our day-of coordinator, and while there were a couple of snags (no PA announcements being made throughout the event, and our wedding cake was cut and served before we got to see it) most everything went really smoothly and felt organized. Communication was good and the staff were incredible day-of. We had so much fun and are so grateful to have found this venue!
