Colorado Winter Wedding Venues
The Best Colorado Winter Wedding Venues
Do you just love the snow? I know I love wintertime and if you love winter a bunch then why not get married in winter? The scenery is epic when the mountains are covered in snow! You have all the snow sports available to you and your guests. Just imagine, skiing and snowboarding all day with your friends and family! Or going on a snowshoe adventure in the wilderness! And who doesn't love a hot toddy next to a fireplace to warm up after a day in the snow!
This is just a mini list of winter wedding venues that I could think of that can accommodate winter weddings. Some venues are just seasonal, so just remember, if you’re unsure, make sure you contact them to see when they host weddings and events when there is snow! Some venues just can’t actually get food or water to the location in the winter, therefore, it’s closed for winter weddings!
Give your guests the experience of winter in Colorado, your favorite time of year! For more traditional weddings, with over 25 guests, ski resorts and lodges are the perfect spots to host these events with multiple venues and accommodations for your guests. For intimate weddings and elopements with under 25 guests, private Estates and National Parks and Forests are perfect! Below you will find some amazing ideas for your winter wedding venue.
Colorado Winter Wedding Venues: Ski Resorts
If y'all love going skiing every weekend it just makes sense to get married at a ski resort so you can ski on your wedding day and share the joy of skiing with all your family and friends.
Colorado Winter Wedding Venues: Lodges & Ranches
Lodges and ranches can offer a more intimate experience without leaving out the joy of mountains and snow. They are all so perfect if you love snowshoeing cross-country skiing or horses.
Colorado Winter Wedding Venues: Private Estates
Private Estates are perfect for intimate weddings for people who have guests with limited mobility, cold tolerance or poor winter driving skills. You can get everything you want from winter mountain activities with the intimacy of being alone in the wilderness with a huge fireplace.
Colorado Winter Wedding Venues: National Parks & Forests
If you're looking for a real adventure in the wintertime, national parks and forests are a perfect option for an elopement. There's not much of a shelter option with national parks and forests but you do get the best views. (Note: National Parks have restrictions on where you can say your vows it must be reserved ahead of time.)
Great Sand Dunes National Park
Arapaho and Roosevelt National Forests
I love the winter in Colorado, the snow really gives everything a special feeling. It might be a little chilly and a little harder to get to but it’s totally worth it if you want a winter wedding. Some people also might think that snow means holiday but it doesn’t have to be an event that is centered around Christmas or it’s colors! If you are worried about that then just avoid red! That would make it safe and non-holiday! It also helps if you have it in January through March! You’ll get amazing snow up in the mountains and it’ll be after all the holiday feels!
When to have your winter wedding!
The best possibility of snow is the middle of January through the middle of March. That’s when the ski resorts get the largest amounts of snow. We can also see snow up in the mountains October through April, depending on the year! If you just want to make sure the mountains are covered in snow but it’s not actually snowing your best chances are middle of March through April. May is mud season and usually, everything is closed plus it’s all muddy and gross.
