We couldn't have asked for a more perfect venue for our special day than Ken Caryl Vista by Wedgewood Weddings. Communication with their team was consistently fast and helpful leading up to the wedding. The venue itself is simply stunning and we received so many compliments from guests on the beautiful mountain views and elegant ballroom. We felt the pricing was very reasonable for everything that was included - especially the extra touches like decorating the cocktail hour room for us. The service from the entire staff was incredible and made us feel like royalty from start to finish.

We got married here on 4/20/24 and it was a delight. So convenient to have our ceremony, cocktail hour, reception and dance party all at the same venue! Choosing the month of coordination package was definitely a lifesaver for us. Erin did a phenomenal job with pre-planning mettings, setting up the decor and running the day smoothly! She pivoted easily when it snowed all day and our cocktail hour had to move indoors. The whole team were incredible professionals. One main reason we picked SKYLIGHT was for the 24 hour rental option beacuse our friends like to dance late into the night. Clay not only did a fantastic job with the alcohol ordering and bartending, he stayed up all night as the after hours venue contact in case we needed anything. The blank slate of the venue really gave us power to create decorations that represented ourselves. We are so grateful to the entire SKYLIGHT team for making our wedding dreams come true!

Mountain Crust is incredible!! I can promise you, you don’t need to look at additional venues. You will not find a venue that is more fun, more kind and willing to make anything happen. I am so grateful for our experience with Mountain Crust Pizza. The Great: 1. The Staff – they are kind and had had fun with us! They communicated with our guests, they were always willing to help and went above and beyond at every step!! Standout employees from our event were Janae (our day of coordinator and one of the most organized and detailed humans), Spencer (upstairs Bartender and someone multiple guests called out saying how kind he was and how wonderful his drinks were) and Ryan (Owner and just sunshine in a human). 2. The food and drinks – I mean what else do your guests want?! BEST PIZZA AND UNLIMITED FOR 3HRS??? All of our guests left full and satisfied and HAPPY! 3. They do everything – day of coordinator, place to get ready, serve food, great bartenders, tables/chairs/napkins, etc. They even gave us great recommendations for Vendors. We booked one of Mountain Crust preferred DJ’s - Alysia the owner of Moonlit Entertainment Co and she was incredible! She listened and tailored the music to our guests and us. We had such a good time with Alysia! 4. Environmentally friendly – they compost and are nearly zero waste! Which also means real napkins, real plates, real silverware!!! 5. Loveshack – what a truly beautiful and perfectly casual spot to get ready in the morning. It is decorated so nicely but so incredibly comfortable. We had a group of 12 vendors and we didn’t feel crowded! The Bad: LITERALLY NOTHING! I have no constructive criticism to offer.

The first time I set foot in the Tivoli Turnhalle at 18, I knew it was where I wanted to get married. Ten years later, I did exactly that, and it’s the best possible decision I could have made. The building was built in the 19th century, so there’s definitely a gilded-age vibe that’s both beautiful and industrial. My husband and his groomsmen loved drinking a beer at the brewery before the ceremony, and I loved having a full bridal suite at the hotel on campus. Everything about this venue was fabulous, and I can’t recommend it enough!

About wedding venues in Lakewood, 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.
