As a planner, I just did my first rehearsal dinner/welcome party at The Barrel. My clients were very happy with the results. It's a casual atmosphere, and the bar remains open during your event, but there is some separation between your event and the open bar area. Food trucks are welcome or we had a caterer set up a lovely buffet. It's a very "Colorado" experience ...don your cowboy boots and jeans and kick back the night before your wedding.

I can only say good things about the Greenbriar Inn!! The Greenbriar team was great to work all the way from planning the event to the night of. I encourage you to book this place for upcoming weddings or events. The venue is even more beautiful in person compared with the photos. Planning: GBI team was incredibly detailed and caring about the nuances of planning our event. When we'd come with a suggested plan, they were very engaged in providing strategic recommendations to make it run as smoothly as possible. Property/Grounds: The property is stunning. We received endless compliments from our guests about how beautiful the ceremony site, cocktail hour location, and dining room were. You really feel like you're in a magical oasis. Food & Drink: The food is a highlight of this venue since they are a fine dining restaurant! The appetizers were a hit, especially the mini beef wellingtons. People loved the cupcakes, even though I didn't get the chance to try it! I was nervous about the bar bill given it's a pay-by-drink approach, but the GBI team did a great job proactively trying to keep it as low as possible/within budget. Pets: This venue is pet friendly! They were so amazing about accommodating our dog Leo so he could be there for our special day.

Awarded Best of Zola
When we began to plan our wedding, it was important for us to create an experience that honored and celebrated our friends and family. The Flagstaff exceeded our expectations on every front and every single guest commented on how much they loved the venue - from the amazing food, the wonderful team, and the breathtaking views. One friend said she’d never seen a wedding so well staffed before, another said they’d never seen a menu with such amazing entree options, and everyone shared that it was the best cake they’ve ever had (and I don’t even like cake!) Working with Annie and the team was a joy - she was highly communicative, accommodating, and such an advocate for our vision. Every request and idea was met with solutions and options - from adding multiple red wines to changing the layout to create a stage for our band. It was the most special way to celebrate the most special day - we are so grateful to the entire Flagstaff team for helping us celebrate

We recently had our elopement wedding ceremony and guest room block at The Eddy and it could not have been more perfect! We were able to utilize the west rooftop for our ceremony which was the perfect backdrop to our wedding. Our family and friends enjoyed their stay here as well. The rooms are clean and modern but feel homey and comfortable. Breakfast was great and a nice amenity to have. We were surprised by champagne in our room when we arrived. Every staff member from front desk to the taproom to housekeeping was warm, friendly and overly accommodating. If you are in the area for business or just for fun or considering using The Eddy for your small wedding celebration, I cannot recommend it enough! Thank you for making our wedding absolutely perfect!
