$150-$300 for a two hour ceremony block, plus a $10-$15 vehicle pass per car

Two ceremony spots: the Pike's Peak Amphitheater, an uncovered rustic area with split-log benches for up to 120 guests and a view of Pikes Peak, and the Bridge Canyon Overlook deck (up to 60 guests, no seating, bring your own chairs). Either runs $150 for two hours Monday through Friday and $300 on Saturday and Sunday. For a reception, covered shelters 1 and 3 hold up to 66 guests at $100 a day weekdays and $150 weekends, and shelter 2 is $75 weekdays and $125 weekends. On top of that every guest's car needs a $10-15 daily vehicle pass, or $4 per person if you're not driving in. Fees are paid by card when you reserve, by phone, current calendar year only.

This is a state park, not a dedicated wedding venue, so it's outdoor ceremony spots with log bench seating plus covered picnic shelters you can book for a reception. Reviews are almost entirely about the hiking trails rather than events, people mention it gets dry and shadeless in summer so you'd want to plan around heat for guests. Nice for a small, rustic ceremony but you're bringing everything else in yourself.

~$150-$300 for the ceremony site rental, going off their posted day rates

no direct quote, but the park's own rate sheet says the amphitheater or overlook is $150 for a two hour slot Monday through Friday and $300 on Saturday and Sunday, plus the standard $10-15 daily vehicle pass per car on top

- Reviews: near-perfect 4.8 stars but ALL about hiking, not weddings - people rave about the rock formations and the dam, dog friendly too - Pike's Peak amphitheater seats up to 120 on split log benches, no frills - the covered reception shelters come with picnic tables, charcoal grills and electricity, but nothing on the park page says catering or rentals are provided, so budget for bringing in everything else yourself
