Everett Ranch Weddings was a perfect venue for our special day. The open, beautiful ranch provided an inviting backdrop that allowed our wedding vision to come to life. Kim, the kind and detail-oriented owner, was a joy to work with - quick to respond to questions, provide vendor recommendations to ensure our day flowed smoothly, and even fix issues that popped up. Her caring heart shines through both in how she runs her family's gorgeous ranch and handles wedding events. Kim sent mockups to bring our design ideas to life, answered questions promptly, and helped make our wedding day stress-free thanks to her organization and problem-solving skills. We felt at home working with Kim and holding our wedding at this little slice of countryside paradise.

Yes. You must, however, abide by all of Everett Ranch Weddings’ liquor rules. In addition, you must purchase Liquor Liability Insurance in addition to Special Event Insurance. Those serving alcohol must obey all Colorado State Laws and have proper licensing from the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control.

Yes. You must, however, make sure liquor is served by a vendor properly licensed by the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control. We can give you contact information for vendors meeting this requirement.

We recommend WedSafe. Obtaining insurance is a simple process that takes about 15 minutes. Please remember to purchase both Special Event Insurance and Liquor Liability Insurance (if liquor will be present). Typically the cost is $100, or $175 for added host liquor liability. Once you have paid the vendor, please email Everett Ranch Weddings a copy of the certificate of liability.

Absolutely, as long as they are fully licensed and insured.

Our 3, 600 square foot barn comes with the following: bistro lights, a bar, an antique wagon and farm table. If a tented reception is what you're after we have ample space for a tented reception. We can put you in contact with vendors specializing in tented receptions to give you the look and feel you're after.

We would prefer all brides to have a day of coordinator. Having a day-of coordinator ensures your wedding will go as planned and as scheduled.

The bridal suite is located just a few minutes away on our neighbor’s 60-acre alpaca farm. It has all the amenities of home and can be used by the bridal party to prepare and relax before the ceremony. It is also a charming honeymoon suite. The bridal suite is exclusively for the wedding party and vendors.

There are many lodging options in Salida. We highly recommend that you book ahead during the peak tourist season, May through September.

To be respectful of our neighbors, who are also our family and friends, we ask that the music cease by no later than 10 pm for tented receptions and 11 pm for barn receptions. If the party must go on longer please contact us to discuss.

Yes. Along with our River Overlook and Sand Park Packages, we also offer the Elopement/Micro-wedding Package for more intimate weddings

Yes. Please contact us for further information.

We are roughly five miles from Salida.
