$9,500-$10,500 flat for up to 150 guests

It's $10,500 for any Saturday and $9,500 any other day of the week, with 9 hours on site. That includes tables and chairs for 150, a 30x30 tent, mandatory valet, an on-site maintenance person, and an event manager who works with you from the tour through the event. It's structured as a 'charity wedding event fee', which I didn't fully follow, but the price is the price.

This is an actual castle on Bear Creek about 30 minutes from Denver, just past Morrison. Catering is outside-only from their approved list. They also run a cheaper sister venue called the Historic Morrison Church if the castle number is too much. The property is gated, so you can't even see it without an appointment. They also let you bring your own alcohol and have a suite for getting ready before the ceremony. A photographer's blog describes the outdoor ceremony lawn under tall trees with waterfalls nearby.

Review roundup: - Photographer: 'not one bad view on the property.' Grounds = immaculate - One bridesmaid knocked them HARD for bad lighting in the brides room. Asked for an extra lamp, got laughed at. Plan getting-ready photos elsewhere - One review calls it a hidden gem - Tip from a review: the Lair O' The Bear trail runs along the perimeter if you want a free peek before booking a tour - Older reddit thread: 'spectacular venue for 100 people' but 'a little pricier.' Same thread: the OP's friends hit really bad bugs at a wedding there in an unusually wet year (lots of water on the property). The couple who loved it married at the end of June in a fairly dry summer
