Professionalism. This group truly works as a team from Sales, to Planning, to Execution. The staff is extremely kind, patient, and knowledgeable. This was especially crucial for me as this was a destination wedding for me, so everything was accomplished virtually. The planning process was enjoyable, and for an out of town bride like me, the wedding planning binder was a lifesaver. The team the day-of was amazing. The extra, small touches were above and beyond what I expected. Value. It was amazing how far our dollar stretched at Ashley Ridge! At other venues, the cost of simply renting the empty space covered the venue space and so much more at Ashley Ridge. They have great decor and extra features that would be an additional fee at other venues like the greenery wall and cloud lighting. The food was absolutely delicious as well! They also provide a military discount! Location. This was an amazing spot for out-of-town guests as it sits by several hotels, restaurants, and things to do. The views of the mountains were stunning as well. There are several parks nearby for wedding party photos. There are tons of restaurants nearby for rehearsal dinners.

2 Penguins Tap and Grill 

5.0

Centennial, CO
  • Up to 600 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $2,000

2 Penguins is not your typical wedding location. We are a Taproom and Restaurant providing quality food, service and beverages. We were in the traditional wedding business under the umbrella business, Panache Catering, Inc, for over 30 years and left it because we eventually were worn out by what it had become. In that time we catered thousands of weddings. The expectations among a some groups of wedding families simply became impossible to meet. If you, too, are becoming worn out by what you are finding in the wedding industry you likely have found a great alternative at 2 Penguins.

Awarded Best of Zola
We set out to find an affordable, functional, and vibey venue for our wedding and we hit the jackpot with 2 Penguins. We toured several places and the event coordinators were by far the easiest to work with. They can customize the menu fully, offer a fully stocked bar, and make it so easy to request and make the day your own. We got married on the patio and it was so green and beautiful. This place is 100% for you if you aren't interested in a traditional wedding vibe, but want a great place to host your special day.

Knoebel Events 

5.0

Denver, CO
  • Up to 180 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor

At the heart of the gracious University of Denver campus, Knoebel Events provides the ideal setting for your event. At once, inviting and state of the art, the Fritz Knoebel School of Hospitality Management combines the warm intimacy of Tuscan architecture and handsomely appointed spaces with the convenience of the latest technology. Here, our student staff, led by a team of celebrated hospitality veterans, provides service marked by seamless efficiency and polished professionalism. We have multiple ceremony venues, including an outdoor patio, as well as the beautiful and historic Evans Chapel.

Knoebel Events is a beautiful interior with excellent friendly staff, including a staff member with a lifetime achievement award in events. We loved the interior stone and metal accent plus wine cellar. We'd love to come back and rent the wine cellar for our anniversary. The brick patio was an great cocktail space. We loved that we had an indoor atrium option for that too. There were plenty of bar locations to accommodate our guests. The tasting is not to be missed. It was a great opportunity to get a sense of their style of food. We gravitated to the sauces made with wine- very good. The beef short ribs were top notch so much so we had two helpings! The chef was very easy to work with as we had some special cultural food requests. He spent one on one time with my husband for a taste test of his special request. So speak up and see what they can do to work with you! Pricing worked for our budget! We found it to be one of the most affordable places to have a reception in Denver. Trust me, we research everywhere in Colorado! We wanted a step above an inexpensive church hall / outdoor venue at park but couldn't afford local mansions with caterers wanting a minimum spent, hotels with less character (or you would have to spend money on environmental decor on top of table decor, country/private clubs with required minimums / overpriced food, nor restaurants with limited space and a different vibe. You get beauty, class, style, versatility, a wine cellar, grand staircase, patio, atrium, and excellent service! FYI, there is a service fee in lieu of a tip which in the end worked for us. They were very forthcoming with all pricing. Trixie Farmer and team went above and beyond. They were always so friendly plus cool and calm under pressure. The student workers were very motivated and on top of it. I did not see any lazy workers. These student workers want to be there- hospitality is part of their study and career choice. We had many small details so we were pleased they helped set these up. Trixie took the time to get to know us. She made excellent recommendations and was very open about what we would and would not need while still leaving us the freedom to decide. She checked in with us, gave us tours, and let us do some small mock set ups of our center pieces. She also welcomed us when we arrived from the church ceremony. This is an event center and a school of hospitality so give the event center a little grace as the school year can effect how busy they are- finals week, breaks, etc. Being a former teacher myself, it was easy to understand this dynamic but as a bride I was eager to get the next email communication follow up. These employees know what they are doing so no matter what, it worked out! My only criticism is that due to a booking following our event we cut our reception shorter than we had hoped. We knew this was possible up front but an additional last minute request for 30 min less was a little disappointing. We were compensated- so that was pleasing. Overall you can not go wrong with Knoebel Events and with Trixie Farmer- Lifetime Achievement Award winner!

Denver Botanic Gardens 

4.0

Denver, CO
  • Up to 1200 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $750

Important moments call for impressive settings. From traditional to whimsical, rustic to chic, wedding sites at the Gardens are surrounded by botanical splendor and stunning natural backdrops that will ensure your wedding is beautifully unique and utterly unforgettable. Choose the perfect space or combination of spaces for your ceremony, cocktail hour, reception or rehearsal dinner. With more than a dozen rentable spaces, the Gardens offers a variety of indoor and outdoor venues for anywhere from 10 to 1,200 guests

My husband and I have been visiting the Botanic Gardens for years and it was the only venue we wanted for our wedding day. The wedding day was everything we had hoped for and many of our guests commented afterward how beautiful it was. We also knew ahead of time that we wanted an intimate wedding and the Woodland Mosaic and Solarium as our location. The weather was fairly warm on our date but our guests didn't feel it because the venue has lots of shade with the solarium and trees. It also felt like a more secluded space, which is something that we wanted. Our wedding date was a very popular Saturday in June, and I believe 5 other weddings were taking place at the same time! Because our location felt so private, we hardly noticed. The only exception being the "golden hour" for photography, where we were taking photos in the Japanese garden and carefully maneuvering around other couples also taking photos. If you want to be the only bride in sight, keep this in mind. We didn't care though. Because we had such a small wedding (40 people), we chose not to have a wedding planner or day-of coordinator. I would recommend one for this venue if you have a larger group or if you don't have a lot of helping hands. We had a lot of help from our families on the day of the event - helping set up things like the gifts/card table and brining in liquor in coolers. We also carried out a lot of items ourselves at the end of the night. This isn't a complaint from our end, as we expected to do some of the coordination ourselves. Just keep in mind that if you don't want to have to do anything on your wedding day, be sure to hire someone for that role. Emily was great at coordinating from the Botanic Gardens side. She gave us helpful information when needed, responded quickly, and we also met her about a month in advance to walk through the site, going over details on things like chairs and tables. In addition, you get an hour walkthrough during the day before your event. On the day of, I booked a touch-up room (included in the price). They have a limited catering list and we were happy to use Serendipity Catering for our food, bartenders, service staff, desserts and floral, which made coordinating everything a lot easier! I highly recommend working with Brie and Raven. Another perk of booking this venue is that you can bring in your own alcohol, which can save money. Negatively, it was a bit of work for our families to haul all of this in and out while in formalwear. Depending on which space you book, you are also only able to have acoustic music. We wanted (and hired) a string quartet, so this worked for us. However, if you want to dance the night away with a DJ, you would need to book elsewhere for the reception or book their indoor ballroom. The best surprise for us was a free couples membership for a year to the Botanic Gardens. We are so excited to have the opportunity to spend more time here, enjoying their many event offerings throughout the year. We can't wait to return year after year!

The Ramble Hotel 

5.0

Denver, CO
  • Up to 80 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $2,000

The first hotel in Denver's industrial and artistic RiNo neighborhood, The Ramble Hotel is locally owned and operated. The 50-room boutique hotel houses the marquee lobby bar Death & Co; The Garden, a courtyard bar - all operated by Death & Co. The Ramble Hotel took inspiration from Madame Rambouillet's French Salons of the 17th century, and the Salon's utility in society as not only a platform for the exchange of ideas, but as a catalyst to creating community. As such, each space within the hotel has been designed with the intent to foster meaningful conversation, engagement and interaction among guests.

We had our wedding at The Ramble and stayed for multiple nights leading up to and after the special day. I have zero complaints about our whole stay, everything was perfect. The venue is stunning. The food and drinks were delicious. The rooms were very cute and comfortable. The staff were so kind, friendly, and helpful to us and our guests. They went out of their way multiple times to ensure our comfort and it was so appreciated. Leading up to the day, they were very communicative and so welcoming with each visit we made. Planning the wedding from out of state, they truly took so much pressure off our plate. Tessa and her team absolutely killed it, and it shows in how smoothly they are able to run an event. We’re so thankful they helped create a special day for us.

Newly renovated historic venue - Building was originally Denver's first Library 3 floors of rent-able event space 3 outdoor areas available for events High ceilings and plenty of natural light Tables and chairs included with rental (limited amount and subject to availability) Built-in amenities include sound systems, projectors, screens, adjustable lighting In-house rental items include portable stages, portable sound systems, pipe and drape, up-lights, market lights, HDTV's, digital podiums, lounge furniture, AV equipment

Our experience working with the staff at the McNichols Building truly could not have been any better. From the time we took our first tour, to the end of our wedding day everything was wonderful. We were originally scheduled to get married there in June of 2020 and moved our wedding not once, but twice due to Covid. Both times we moved the wedding their staff was incredibly accommodating and rescheduled our date without any fees or difficulty. We finally had our wedding there in Oct. 2021. Their original events coordinator we worked with, Julie, who we adored, took a different position during the pandemic and the transition between her and the gentleman who took of her duties was seamless. John was also so easy and pleasant to work with. The rest of the staff was just as incredible and accommodating on our wedding day. We rented the third floor and it was perfect for our 150 person wedding. We loved the modern style of the room and the local, modern art on display added unique decor and personality to the space. We used Civic Center Park and some surrounding areas for wedding photos and they turned out beautiful. This venue is truly a gem of Denver and I would recommend using it for any event - personal, business, or otherwise. You will not find a better event staff to work with!

Christian the owner, communicated with us in a quick, direct, and pleasant manner throughout the planning process, providing helpful information that guided us to a wonderful event.

The Denver Athletic Club

Denver, CO
  • Up to 250 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $11,000

The Denver Athletic Club is a private membership owned club that was established in Denver in 1884. The DAC moved to it’s current location in 1892 and has expanded in the years since to now occupy the entire city block. Second only to it’s namesake amenity (our athletic facilities), the event spaces we have on premises are classic, elegant and charming to any event attendees we host! We do all catering in house and have an amazing Executive Chef that delivers incredible plated dinners and buffets! Our venue rental includes tables, chairs, chinaware, glassware, and access to setup décor, all day. Our Grand Ballroom is breathtaking with elevated ceilings, classic romantic colors, and an elegant tear drop chandelier! Our Rooftop Sundeck, open seasonally, has a permanent awning structure that shades half of the space as well as a stunning view of the Denver city skyline.

We had our wedding (90 people) at the Denver Athletic Club in September 2024 and had the absolute best experience! We were lucky to work with the amazing Brooke for over a year in planning and coordinating our wedding, and we were so grateful for the beautiful ballroom as a backup reception location when the weather decided to do CO weather things. We were still able to have our ceremony and cocktail hour on the roofdeck, which was one of the main reasons we picked the DAC (super cool skyline views). The bowling alley afterparty was also a hit with guests! Another great perk of the DAC is how many spaces there are for getting ready, which made hair and makeup convenient and kept the groom and groomsmen on a different floor until pictures. Food and service were great too, it was nice having catering included so we didn't have to involve and coordinate outside food & bev.
