We were so lucky to book this venue for our wedding on 08/30/25 — it truly made our dream come true. You can immediately tell that this is a well-run, professional, and caring venue. During our initial tour at WBL, Codi was incredibly knowledgeable and made us feel so comfortable. We fell in love with the venue right away. Here’s a breakdown of the highlights we think you’ll love when considering this venue: View: The view is what sealed the deal for us. The outdoor ceremony space is absolutely breathtaking. They even have “alcoholic llamas” (our nickname for them!) that carry beverages on their backs. We had them during our cocktail hour, and our guests LOVED it. Cost: The venue includes catering and several beverage package options. The pricing is reasonable and not overly expensive for this area, especially considering everything that’s included. Food: Our guests couldn’t stop raving about the food — it was delicious! We even had them incorporate local wild mushrooms into our menu, which was such a special touch. Location: Our guests stayed in Estes Park, and we arranged a shuttle service to and from the lodge. It made transportation easy and convenient for everyone. Amenities: The venue recently underwent renovations, and everything looks beautiful. My hair and makeup artists, photographer, and videographer all commented on how stunning the bridal suite was. There are two adjoining rooms — one with plenty of vanity mirrors and another with private curtained sections for changing. Coordinator: Now for the best part — the coordination team! Lauren was our wedding coordinator, and she was absolutely AMAZING. She stayed on top of every detail throughout the planning process and took such great care of us on our wedding day. She always responded promptly to my (many!) emails and was incredibly helpful and kind. On the big day, Lauren handled everything — setting up décor, keeping the timeline on track, coordinating with vendors, checking in with our families, and even making sure we were fed whenever possible. I have no idea how she managed it all while still smiling the entire time! The entire WBL team was fantastic — well-coordinated, attentive, and professional. Because of them, we were able to truly relax and enjoy our day without any stress. We are so thankful to WBL for giving us such a seamless, magical wedding experience. It was truly the most beautiful day of our lives. With love, Kearny and Ryan

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. No matter which space couples choose, both locations offer breathtaking mountain views in every season. We’ve had the privilege of capturing weddings here throughout the year, each with its own unique touch of Colorado’s ever-changing weather. On top of that, the team at Spruce Mountain Ranch is incredible to work with, ensuring every wedding day runs smoothly. It’s always a pleasure to return to this stunning venue!

The St Vrain is such a beautiful venue with intentionally decorated spaces. Mark and Annie were wonderful to work with and very communicative. We got married in April and unfortunately were unlucky with the weather, however, we didn’t have to worry much since the St Vrain is primarily indoors, spacious and was easily able to accommodate our 120 guests. Some of their recommended vendors were out of our price range so we had to do a little additional research to find the right vendors for us. Overall, we are extremely glad we chose the St Vrain.
