As a planner, I just did my first rehearsal dinner/welcome party at The Barrel. My clients were very happy with the results. It's a casual atmosphere, and the bar remains open during your event, but there is some separation between your event and the open bar area. Food trucks are welcome or we had a caterer set up a lovely buffet. It's a very "Colorado" experience ...don your cowboy boots and jeans and kick back the night before your wedding.

The Bull Pin - Elevated Entertainment was an absolute delight to work with for our wedding festivities. From the moment we first reached out, their team was incredibly kind, engaging, and fun to interact with. They were so flexible and accommodating, making it easy for us to plan the perfect Indian-American welcome henna party. The venue was decked out with Christmas-time decor galore, creating such a festive atmosphere. We rented out the back room and bar, and some bowling lanes which led to lots of laughs and friendly competition (my husband even broke the punching machine record at 936!). The ability to bring in our own catering was also a huge plus for our cultural celebration. Overall, the team at The Bull Pin went above and beyond to make our special day truly memorable. We cannot recommend them enough!

About wedding venues in Walden, 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.

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.
