Tammy & The FDR crew are absolutely incredible! This was hands down the most beautiful and breathtaking Mountain property! The venue boasts impeccably maintained landscaping/flowers, 2 ceremony site options (Aspen Grove View or Mountain View), a large white reception tent with dance floor, vendor/catering tents, on site bathrooms, a cabin for bridal party to get ready in -- and all within a comfortable 15min proximity to town which was amazing for our 200 guests!

I highly recommend the FDR and Team as they make weddings look and feel like an absolute DREAM!

My husband and I envisioned a wedding celebration with our family and friends at a ranch in the Yampa Valley and La Joya Dulce (LJD) was the perfect venue! Kathie and Wayne Jacobsen, Croix Frank, and the rest of the LJD team were very welcoming, friendly, and accommodating. As our wedding manager and day of coordinator, Croix, paid extra attention to our requests and made sure every detail was flawless which made our wedding day extra special. LJD offers an incredible Share the Love program, breathtaking views, and a laid back, and elegant atmosphere. Guests of our wedding still rave about the gorgeous sunset, friendly horses, delicious taco bar, and endless dancing! We greatly appreciate everything the LJD team did to make our wedding day one we will cherish forever.
