The Best Time Of Year For Your Wedding At The Peaks
Generally speaking, the weather in Colorado is beautiful from June through October. (If you like a little bit more snow, you might opt for the winter months—but be careful, because you don’t want to have heavy snow impact travel plans for you or your guests.)
Remember, because June through October is such an ideal time, there’s also a lot of demand. Be sure to plan ahead and book early!
Where To Have Your Wedding Ceremony
Remember how we mentioned The Peaks Resort & Spa and its elegant three-venue setup? In fact, each of the three spaces offers a distinct atmosphere for different stages of a wedding day.
First, you can begin your celebration on the Mount Wilson Terrace. This outdoor patio overlooks the mountains and sets a stunning backdrop for your ceremony. In addition, it works beautifully for cocktail hour before the reception begins.
Next, when it is time for a formal sit-down dinner, you can move into the Legends Dining Room. This luxurious space creates the perfect setting for a multi-course meal. However, it also serves as an indoor ceremony option in case of rain.
Finally, you can end the evening in the Crystal Room. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame the mountain views throughout the space. Meanwhile, the expansive dance floor invites guests to celebrate late into the night.
If you would like a closer look at each space, you can take a virtual tour on WeddingWire.
