Mount Vernon Canyon Club truly is the perfect place to get married. I don’t think I have enough good things to say about them or the people who work there. Barbara is an absolute ray of sunshine. I would adopt her if I could. Seriously. She is just one of those people that instantly makes you feel taken care of. I think she told me she’s been doing weddings for 25 years and it shows. She knows her stuff. If you have an outside coordinator, listen to Barbara’s feedback and suggestions because she has seen everything and genuinely wants your day to be successful. Also, Angel is the bar manager from heaven. I have never had cocktails so delicious in my life. We had kiwi margaritas and a bourbon brown sugar/vanilla Manhattan, which sounds a little ridiculous when I type it out, but I would happily drink both every day for the rest of my life. We had a pretty specific vision and he absolutely nailed it. We are also a crowd that likes to drink and at no point did people have to wait forever for a beverage, which was honestly impressive. I know Will was one of our bartenders and there was another woman who was incredible that I cannot remember her name right now, but once I figure it out I’ll come back and update this review because she deserves a shoutout too! Also, thank you to Nicole, who helped me navigate some wedding-related hiccups after the fact that had absolutely nothing to do with Mount Vernon. She didn’t have to help and she did anyway. The views are spectacular, but honestly what stands out most is the people. There are a lot of beautiful wedding venues in Colorado. What makes Mount Vernon special is that the people genuinely care about your wedding and about you. We felt so loved and supported throughout this process and are so grateful we got to celebrate our day there.

Spruce Mountain Ranch is one of our favorite venues to photograph, offering two distinct yet equally beautiful spaces. Lower Ranch has a warm, intimate feel with its darker wood tones and grand stone fireplace, along with multiple gorgeous ceremony locations. Upper Ranch, on the other hand, is bright and spacious, featuring lighter wood, soaring ceilings, and an open design that can accommodate larger weddings—something we always appreciate.

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.

We just celebrated my son’s beautiful wedding at the Ameristar Casino Resort Spa in Black Hawk, Colorado, and it was absolutely perfect from start to finish! Nestled in the stunning Rocky Mountains, this venue made for the most magical mountain wedding setting we could have imagined. A huge shout-out to Kelly Chandler — she went way above and beyond her duties to ensure every single detail was flawless. From planning to execution, she handled everything with such care and professionalism that we never had a single worry. She truly made our family’s special day stress-free and spectacular! Our host, Alvin Pasagui, was incredible as well. He made sure every detail was covered, the accommodations were top-notch (spacious, luxurious rooms with amazing views), and everything ran smoothly. The food was absolutely delicious — every course was a hit with our guests, and the presentation was elegant and perfect for a wedding celebration. The entire casino and resort staff were the best we’ve ever experienced — friendly, attentive, and genuinely excited to be part of our big day. Everything felt seamless and high-end. If you’re looking for a memorable wedding in the mountains with luxury, great food, fantastic service, and that perfect blend of casino excitement and romantic resort vibes, I cannot recommend the Ameristar Black Hawk enough. We had a great time and would book it again in a heartbeat! Highly recommend — 5 Stars!!!!

About wedding venues in Idaho Springs, CO

What Makes Colorado's Wedding Venues Unique?

Colorado's wedding venues offer something truly special, blending architectural diversity with stunning natural scenery. You'll find sophisticated urban elegance at the Grand Hyatt Denver right alongside the rustic charm of Spruce Mountain Ranch. Every window at the Flagstaff House Restaurant frames breathtaking mountain vistas while Tapestry House By Wedgewood Weddings pairs Victorian beauty with meticulously maintained gardens. Mountain View Ranch takes indoor-outdoor flow to the next level with retractable walls that let you seamlessly connect with nature while keeping guests comfortable. When it comes to costs you'll be pleasantly surprised - Colorado venues typically run between $6,000 and $6,800, which falls on the lower end of what you'd pay nationally where prices range from $6,500 to $12,000.

How Much Does a Colorado Mountain Wedding Cost?

Planning a Colorado mountain wedding for 150 guests? You're looking at around $46,999 total. Here's how that breaks down across your key vendors: - Florists: 16% ($7,466) - Venues: 14% ($6,399) - Catering: 11% ($5,119) - Photography: 10% ($4,622) - Videography: 9% ($4,124) - Wedding Planning: 9% ($4,124) - Bar Services: 9% ($4,095) - Bands and DJs: 3% ($1,500) - Cake and Desserts: 2% ($801) - Hair and Makeup: 1% ($670)

When Should You Book Colorado Wedding Services?

Timing is everything when planning your Colorado wedding. Start with your venue 13 months out - that's 390 days before your big day. Your photographer and wedding planner should be next on the list about 10 months ahead. Most other vendors including your florist caterer and videographer need about 9 months' notice while hair and makeup artists typically want 8 months' heads up. Planning a fall wedding? Book even earlier since September sees the highest demand.

Which Colorado Mountain Regions Offer the Best Wedding Settings?

You'll find perfect settings year-round in Colorado's mountains. The Grange shows off spectacular fall colors with its aspen groves while Della Terra lets you host cozy outdoor ceremonies with snowy peaks as your backdrop. Spring brings wildflower meadows at Wild Basin Lodge and summer celebrations shine under Balistreri Vineyards' pergola-covered patio. September proves most popular combining perfect temperatures with reliable weather.

How Do Denver Wedding Venues Compare to Mountain Locations?

Whether you're drawn to city sophistication or mountain majesty Colorado's got you covered. Craftwood Peak puts you face-to-face with Pikes Peak while The Simon offers industrial-chic style with Denver skyline views. You can celebrate in the historic Kirk Of Highland or surrounded by Garden of the Gods' stunning red rocks. City venues like Rooftop1630 deliver urban views while mountain locations connect you directly with nature.

What Weather Contingencies Do Colorado Venues Provide?

Colorado venues know how to handle whatever weather comes your way. Mount Vernon Canyon Club keeps you connected to the views through its glass-enclosed reception space while Church Ranch Event Center offers multiple indoor ceremony spots with mountain vistas through massive windows. Want a winter ceremony? Ashley Ridge has heated outdoor pavilions and Meadow Creek Lodge keeps everyone comfortable with covered walkways between venues.

Where Can You Find All-Inclusive Colorado Wedding Packages?

Looking to simplify your planning? Wedgewood Weddings properties across Colorado including Tapestry House and Mountain View Ranch handle everything from catering to coordination. The Grand Hyatt Denver includes room blocks with their packages while Balistreri Vineyards wraps up wine service catering and coordination in one easy contract. These venues make planning easier with dedicated coordinators managing timelines and vendor teams.

How Do Colorado Wedding Budgets Scale with Guest Count?

Your Colorado wedding budget flexes with your guest list: - 50 guests: $20,802 - 100 guests: $34,304 - 150 guests: $46,999 - 200 guests: $58,346 - 250 guests: $69,693 - 300 guests: $81,041 This scaling helps you maintain the quality you want while adjusting for your perfect guest count.
