Add reconrental runs $9,100 to $10,500 depending on the day, and their site cites average total wedding budgets of $50k-$70k
Their pricing page has the 12-hour rental at $9,100 on weekdays up to $10,500 on Saturdays, and their site cites an average total wedding cost of about $50,000 to $70,000 depending on headcount, vendors, catering, bar and decor. From what's described, rental covers the space for around 12 hours plus staff, tables and chairs, and two rooms to get ready in. Catering runs through their approved vendor list rather than an outside buyout, and they suggest budgeting another $5,000-$7,000 just for shuttling guests.
Logistics stood out more than the price here. Most weddings pull a big share of out of town guests, and the venue runs its own shuttle partnerships so nobody drives the mountain roads at night, one reviewer flew in most of her east coast and midwest guests and called the shuttles a non issue. You also have to hire a professional day-of coordinator or planner, and it can't be a family member or guest. No food or bar included, you're routed to a required vendor list instead.

Mountain venue up in Idaho Springs that caps at 170 guests, with ceremony and reception space counted separately rather than combined. One couple singled out staff by name, working with Sydney through planning and handing off to Audrey on the day, and said guests raved about the new pizza oven on the patio, though they called it a difficult location to get to. Catering is locked to their required vendor list so budget accordingly. Ceremonies are on the outdoor deck overlooking the Continental Divide.
