The most beautiful wedding venue!
Sara was beyond wonderful to work with. She gave us so many wonderful vendor recommendations and truly helped us create the most perfect wedding day! The Blue Coyote Ranch is everything you want for a Colorado wedding. Sara was always quick with her communication and so very helpful at every turn. We will always be so grateful for her for being so gracious during this time of our lives!
Response from vendor•Jun 30, 2025Keri, thank you so much for the wonderful review! We had so much fun hosting you and your friends and family! And we still can't get over all your dreamy ranch photos! Hope to see you and Matt again in the future!One year later, guests still talk about the venue
It's been a year since our wedding, and guests STILL talk about how much they loved the Blue Coyote venue. We were able to have almost half of our guests staying on site, which really upped the intimacy and made things easier for friends and family who had to travel long distances to get here. The grounds are beautiful. The rooms are so comfortable and well appointed. Every detail is thoughtful. The Blue Coyote team were also easy to work with - I'm so glad we had them as part of the team. They coordinated seamlessly and easily with our planner, caterer, and band. The caterer and florist we used were recommended by the venue, and both were fantastic.
Response from vendor•Jun 30, 2025Liz - Thank you so much for the excellent review! Your wedding was the epitome of mountain beauty and we still love looking at the photos with snow-capped mountains! It was so fun getting to you know you and Roger, and your family and friends. Hope to see you around Salida soon!
