What do a former brothel, a fur-trading post, and the Rocky Mountain foothills all have in common? No, they're not the setting for a Louis L'Amour novel, but they are all among the fantastic options available for hosting the perfect wedding right in the Denver-Metro area. Whether you're planning an event large or small, formal or casual, indoor or outdoor, Denver has everything you need to make your wedding a spectacular occasion.
Starting with the rehearsal dinner, choose from Denver's wide array of fine dining options in the many luxurious hotels and upscale restaurants that provide set menus and private banquet rooms. Be sure to include at least one delicious selection of Colorado's choice-cut filets or buffalo steaks as an entree.
For the less conventional crowd (a bachelor party, perhaps?), try one of Denver's fabled historic sites that harkens back to a scandalous era of sleazy saloons and bawdy bordellos. Sorry, madams no longer working.
You can rest easy knowing that Denver has no dearth of first-rate accommodations for you and your guests. From restored mansions of wealthy landowners and entrepreneurs to intimate, family-run Bed & Breakfasts, you'll find plenty of well-equipped establishments that can help coordinate and plan your event.
As for the ceremony, there are many beautiful churches Downtown and in the surrounding suburbs, but many prefer to head to smaller chapels in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains to perform their nuptials with jagged sandstone peaks as their backdrop. Within the city limits, a number of facilities have outdoor gardens that also make a lovely landscape for sunny, afternoon weddings.
Finally, several banquet halls and events centers in the Denver Area provide full-service wedding arrangements complete with dinner, a band or DJ, and open bar for wedding receptions. Or, hire a top-notch catering service of your choice to provide hors d'oeuvres and cocktails at a museum, gallery, or private country estate.
No matter what kind of wedding you envision, Denver has the right combination of big city amenities and natural splendor to make your dreams come true. Navigate this Denver Wedding Guide to find lodging for guests, dinner venues, wedding photographers, and more. Alternatively, you can work with a wedding planner who can arrange everything from wedding cake and flowers to limousine transportation from nearby Denver International Airport.
