One of our favorite blog series is back! While many of the venues remain the same, we’re always excited to highlight past weddings at our favorite mountain venues and share our excitement for upcoming celebrations in the 2026 season.
Colorado mountain venues will always hold a special place in our hearts. They’re right in our backyard, and we love that our couples choose to bring their guests to places that mean so much to them. While it feels impossible to narrow it down, we’re excited to share a handful of our favorites below!
Xo, Calluna
PITKIN COUNTY (Aspen, Basalt, Snowmass)
The Little Nell (Aspen, CO)
Why We Love The Little Nell: The Little Nell is the epitome of luxury and getting married here would be an unforgettable experience. Looking for epic views? Check. World class service? Check. A phenomenal party like no other? Triple check. “The experience waiting for you as you step off Aspen’s Silver Queen Gondola may be reason enough to exchange vows. Floating three miles above the town of Aspen but just steps from The Little Nell, our Wedding Deck is a venue unlike anything else in Colorado. At an elevation of 11,212 feet, with sweeping views of the Elk Mountain Range, it doesn’t get much more romantic.” We loved this top of mountain moment at Sophie + Jacob’s wedding.

With stunning views of Aspen Mountain and affording convenient access to downtown, the Hotel Jerome featuring Aspen’s only above-ground ballroom is the ideal event venue for an effortlessly elegant wedding or special event.” We loved celebrating Brooke + Max in their all white, 2024 Aspen glam wedding!

The St. Regis Aspen (Aspen, CO)
Why We Love The St. Regis Aspen: Located at the base of Aspen Mountain, The St. Regis offers your guests the ultimate “Aspen” experience that many couples look for. A St. Regis wedding means luxury, comfort, and unforgettable memories. Just steps from the slopes and Aspen’s best bars and restaurants, it’s location truly perfection. Page + Scott’s wedding day was one for the storybooks, and we couldn’t imagine a better destination to celebrate them!

T Lazy 7 (Aspen, CO)
Why We Love T Lazy 7: T-Lazy-7 Ranch is home to three of Aspen’s premier event venues. You can customize your own a twinkle-lit tented reception in the stunning T-Lazy-7 Meadow, or pair a Meadow ceremony with the elegant T-Lazy-7 Event Lodge for the reception dinner and dancing. If you’re looking for a more authentic hoe-down experience, cozy around the campfire at the covered outdoor facility known as the Chuckwagon Grounds. T-Lazy-7 Ranch is a spectacular setting for any event and is surrounded by National Forest and Wilderness for stunning photo backdrops. We absolutely loved Ansley + Caleb‘s colorful summer celebration and can’t wait to be back for more!

Pine Creek Cookhouse (Aspen, CO)
Why We Love Pine Creek Cookhouse: Pine Creek offers views like no other of the Elk Mountains. Tucked up the valley, the venue is about a 30 minute drive from the heart of Aspen and is the perfect secluded spot. You won’t find any cell service up there, but will find a lush garden and authentic mountain cuisine! We loved that Katie + James’ held their welcome party here to kick off their beautiful wedding weekend in Aspen!

EAGLE COUNTY (Vail, Edwards, Beaver Creek)
Sonnenalp (Vail, CO)
Why We Love The Sonnenalp: The Sonnenalp is timelessly Vail. This luxury alpine hotel features a stunning, partially glass-enclosed dining room that fills with natural light—perfect for a beautiful reception. Picture a ceremony along Gore Creek, followed by dinner and dancing under the stars. It’s the perfect blend of alpine charm and modern elegance. Ludwig’s glass-enclosed terrace is another dream space and the setting for Meghan + Chris’ absolutely gorgeous reception. We’re so excited to return to Sonnenalp for Mary Ilene + Walker’s wedding day this winter!

The 10th (Vail, CO)
Why We Love The 10th: This one of a kind venue is an iconic Vail wedding destination. A gondola ride to the top creates a fun and memorable experience for guests, and with exceptional service and views that literally take our breath away, this place is truly close to our hearts. It’s just as breathtaking in the warmer months as it is in winter—something you can see beautifully in Jackie + Colin’s summer celebration and Abbie + Eric’s snowy winter wedding below. The restaurant overlooks the Gore Range at Vail’s mid-mountain, creating the most epic backdrop for dinner and an unforgettable dance party.

Make this beautiful hotel your guests’ home base or celebrate in one of their many versatile event spaces—including their newly renovated ballroom (it’s beyond!). We had the joy of planning Paula + Russ ’s wedding reception at Four Seasons Vail, complete with a ten-piece orchestra you won’t want to miss out on adding to your celebration!

Vail Wedding Deck + Arrabelle Square (Vail, CO)

Afterward, head back down the mountain to Arrabelle Square, where all your guests can gather under the tent to dance the night away in the heart of Lionshead Village. We’re beyond excited to return this upcoming fall for Megan + Josh, and Molly + Stevie’s wedding celebrations!

A stunning sailcloth tent at the base of the mountain that will quite literally take your (and your guests) breath away.

Saddleridge (Beaver Creek, CO)
Why We Love Saddleridge: While offering all the beautiful scenery of Beaver Creek, Saddleridge also delivers an authentic Colorado experience with vaulted ceilings, western artifacts, and mountain views that stretch on and on. Filled with rich historical details, this venue is anything but a classic ballroom, and we absolutely love that. It’s a truly unforgettable setting for a one of a kind couple and wedding celebration.

Beano’s Cabin (Beaver Creek, CO)
Why We Love Beano’s Cabin: Beano’s Cabin in Beaver Creek is a tried-and-true Calluna favorite. Nestled on the mountain, the cabin offers a beautiful interior paired with equally stunning alpine views. Beaver Creek is the perfect destination, with incredible restaurants, scenic hikes, and plenty of adventurous activities for guests to enjoy. One of our all-time favorite weddings took place at Beano’s—be sure to check it out here! That being said, we’re especially excited to be back there this summer for Caroline + Charlie’s wedding celebration!

Zach’s Cabin (Bachelor Gulch, CO)
Why We Love Zach’s Cabin: “Perched on the mountainside high above Bachelor Gulch with the uninterrupted views of the magnificent Gore Range, Zach’s is the epitome of fine dining at its peak. Guests are whisked away for a starlit sleigh ride, pulled by a Beaver Creek Snow Cat. Famous for its artful assemblage of fresh Rocky Mountain fare featuring the finest regional and seasonal ingredients paired with excellent vintages for the perfect dinner experience.” Need way say more!? Its perfection. We were thrilled to have planned Mackenzie + Tom’s winter wedding here!

Park Hyatt Beaver Creek (Beaver Creek, CO)
Why We Love The Park Hyatt Beaver Creek: We’ve been quick to fall in love with this hotel at the base of the mountain. We love the versatility of the event spaces (Crooked Hearth for a more intimate feel or rehearsal dinner!) and their ceremony views are something to write home about – whatever the season. We had so much fun planning Molly + Daniel’s wedding in 2023, and Rachel and Rowdy’s wedding in November of 2024!

Westin Riverfront (Avon, CO)
Why We Love Westin Riverfront: Located just outside of Beaver Creek Village, you get a resort style feel, while still located close to all the fun of a mountain town. Westin Riverfront is located right by the river, so you have a water element right in the mountains for your first look or portraits! We had the most incredible experience celebrating Autumn + Drew, and Sara + Connor’s weddings here last summer!

Perfect for any nature lover, Flying Diamond is a beautiful blank canvas. “Picturesque aspen groves and open fields framed by forests and mountains with sweeping, majestic views of the Steamboat Ski Area create a stunning space to host magical and very private Colorado weddings, parties, and events.” We are still so in awe over Kendall + Chris’ wedding!

Why We Love The Wyman Hotel: The makers behind The Wyman describe it as “a 1902 landmark building which has been reimagined with the comforts and amenities of an urban boutique hotel and is a welcoming, thoughtfully appointed space, perfect for artists, creatives, and adventurers.” We couldn’t come up with a better description if we tried. Each detail was perfectly in place, making our stay feel both comfortable and inspired. For our clients looking for an outside the box, western chic experience – this is the spot for you.
