Colorado Springs event space that also runs a Wednesday summer concert series, so the property gets a lot of general foot traffic beyond just weddings. A guest at a wedding here in June called it a lovely setting but mentioned there's no air conditioning, which could matter for a hot afternoon reception. Food trucks are apparently a normal fixture at the concerts too. It's a mostly outdoor garden venue, ceremonies happen outside with the covered pavilion as the rain backup, and there are two dressing spaces including a wedding cottage for getting ready.
$5800 Saturday half day, $7400 Saturday all day
