Add recon~$3.2k-$6.5k by day + hours booked
web listings put the reception rental ~$3,200-$6,500 by date/season, and their own rate card (2025) ran $3,200 for 8 hrs mon-thu up to $6,000 for a 10 hr saturday, +$500 on holiday/peak dates, ceremony + tables & chairs included. one firsthand data point, a couple paid ~$3,500 for a july 2017 saturday WITH a 20% discount since july hadn't booked yet, so today's rates are likely higher. lots of discount culture though (20% off nov-apr with an indoor ceremony, 10% military, and that 2017 couple got free linens as a military discount)
-family-owned 3-story barn ~30 min west of denver, outside evergreen -OPEN catering, bring your own vendors (a couple said this is how they controlled costs). rare & budget-friendly. byo alcohol too -cap ~115 but the 3-story floor plan gets awkward for big groups, best under ~100 -outdoor mountainside arbor ceremony then move inside for reception -owners roger & steve named a lot, warm family vibe, quick to respond
~$3.5k firsthand (2017, discounted); ~$3.2k-$6.5k web range
One real number: a couple paid ~$3,500 for a summer Saturday in 2017, but that included a 20% discount because July hadn't booked yet, so current rates run higher. Web ranges land ~$3,200-$6,500. Open catering + BYO alcohol are the real savings.
Why budget couples like it: - OPEN catering. Bring any caterer, buffet, even potluck per one listing. Plus BYO alcohol. - Family-run (Roger and Steve get named repeatedly). Warm, flexible, quick email replies. - Discount culture: off-season deals, military perks, COVID-era flexibility. Watch-outs: - The 3-story barn is awkward for large weddings. Best at ~75-100 (one couple with 80 skipped the basement entirely). - It sits up in the mountains outside Evergreen.
