The Woodlands Colorado is ushering in a new era of barn weddings. Clean, white backdrops with a minimalist flair; sweeping scenery that highlights the Rocky Mountains’ unique draw; spacious and inviting interiors; and all the charm you expect from a classic Colorado wedding venue. 

 

 

Considering your own barn wedding in Colorado? Or looking for a scenic indoor/outdoor setting that is versatile and modern? Woodlands wedding venue in Colorado is an ideal space for a rural mountain wedding, and it’s just a half hour from Denver. 

 

Today we’re sharing all the details about this stunning venue and offering our best advice for planning your wedding here. 

The Best of Seclusion and Convenience

Woodlands is located on 52 acres of rural beauty. It’s the perfect balance between convenience and “away-from-it-all” serenity. This means that both Denver locals and out-of-state groups can enjoy a quiet Rocky Mountain wedding that’s easy to plan. 

 

 

But there’s more to love about Woodlands than just its great location. Completed in 2019, the venue features contemporary getting-ready suites for you and your partner, a mountain-view ceremony lawn, a covered cocktail area, and a clean, climate-controlled indoor reception space. 

 

 

You can have up to 200 guests at your Woodlands Colorado wedding, and rentals include ceremony chairs, a ceremony altar, reception chairs and tables, and a sound system. 

 

Most vendors are restricted to their list, so you may be limited on who you can select to be a part of your day. This works well for most couples, though, as it ensures you’re working with trusted professionals who can help create the kind of day you envision at the venue. 

 

 

And you’ll have your choice of Colorado wedding photographers and Videographers, so Dgass Photography can expertly capture your day.

Pricing

The Woodlands has straightforward pricing that includes chairs, tables, and use of the full facilities.

Couples planning a wedding at Woodlands can create a semi-DIY wedding or work with a full-service planner. This means there’s a lot of flexibility and room to showcase your unique style. 

 

The venue provides a list of approved vendors, including caterers, bartenders, rental suppliers, and music. It also requires an insured day-of coordinator onsite to guide you, your guests, and your vendors through the event. 

 

Reviewers rave over the clear communication and attentive service from the venue’s owners. You can also add in-house planning services if you want their team to take over the entire planning for you. 

 

They’ll also recommend florists, Denver wedding photographers and videographers, and bakeries, though you aren’t required to select those vendors from their list.
