From the moment we booked The Tack Shed on Bridal Bay, their communication and responsiveness were excellent. They were always quick to answer our questions and address any concerns we had leading up to the wedding. On the day of the event, their team was incredibly helpful and went above and beyond to make our special day perfect. There was a chance of rain, and they proactively reached out the day before to see if we wanted to move the ceremony up, which we really appreciated. They also did a wonderful job with some simple yet elegant decorations that really tied the whole space together. Overall, the quality of their work and the value they provided was excellent.

If you’re looking for an amazing venue for a wedding in Ouray, the search is over! The Wright Opera House was a dream. We got married in July 2024. Originally we thought about an outdoor wedding, but because we wanted guests to be comfortable and have access to bathrooms, we quickly changed that plan. The Wright was a great alternative. The inside is so beautifully restored. If you love a vintage feel, but want modern accommodations, this is the place. The bar package was very reasonably priced, and we could customize how we wanted. We brought in our own catering. The Wright had tables and chairs and linens for us. The overall price was extremely reasonable for a wedding venue. Our guests loved it! We got so many compliments, seriously. The staff was lovely and easy to coordinate with. Also, it is a handicap accessible building, which was a must for our guests. My favorite thing about the Wright was the murals on the walls in the theater. So beautiful! Choose the Wright, you can’t go wrong! And! They have a lovely area for the bride to get ready downstairs.

Storm King Mountain Ranch was a beautiful and spacious venue that provided an open and commodious space for our wedding day. While their communication was a bit prolonged and delayed at times, their presence on the day was extremely accommodating. The set-up was perfect, and the bridal suite was an excellent space for getting ready - plenty of room, lots of outlets, and a private bathroom.

We were looking for a venue to gather friends and family in the mountains for a whole wedding weekend, from day-before hikes to a ceremony site and then late-night fire pit. Finding all of that, plus good catering (thanks Blake!) and a newly remodeled accommodations all in one place truly made our planning easy. Most importantly: Rose and Amber were wonderful, helping us not only with details at the lodge but finding great vendors, arranging last-minute transportation, and generally rolling with all the surprises for a stress-free weekend. We'll be back to visit!
