Reason why I love Spruce Mountain Ranch
- The limitless ceremony and reception options. The Ranch has several different ceremony and reception sites. The main ranch is split into two. There’s the Lower Ranch containing Albert’s Lodge (250 capacity), the Colorado Room (80 capacity), or the Mountainside ceremony site (100 capacity). Then there’s the larger Upper Ranch containing the Ponderosa Room (325 capacity) and Trey’s Vista (100 capacity). No matter your vision or the weather, Spruce Mountain Ranch has you covered!
2. The incredible multi-use indoor/outdoor spaces. Almost all the structures at Spruce have easy access to the great outdoors. Which, if you’re getting married in Colorado is probably a huge win. I just love the ability to open the doors fully to allow guests to mingle inside and outside.
3. The mountain views. The outdoor ceremony sites are truly unbeatable. Saying your vows with mountains all around seems like a dream!
4. The rustic touches. This venue is a true Colorado mountain venue. I love the rustic wooden elements and large fireplaces. The venue is a working ranch, so the elements all feel authentic and real.
5. The outdoor fireplaces. I love the ambiance of having an outdoor fireplace. You can even roast s’mores!

The main suite in the Ponderosa room looks out onto the reception space– it’s super fun to be able to see your reception come to life!

If you’re having a large gathering, the Ponderosa Room is probably for you. This reception site features massive garage doors, huge ceilings and even a stage for a live band or DJ. There is plenty of room to spread out and includes a gorgeous courtyard complete with twinkly fairylights for your guests to mingle outside.

What people are saying about Spruce Mountain Ranch
“Spruce Mountain Ranch made my dream wedding come true! I would not have been able to pull together what I did anywhere else. The venue itself is beyond gorgeous. The views are breathtaking, no matter what season. I chose a March wedding in hopes of Colorado snow and I got it! I truly felt like a princess the entire evening. The vendors who contract with Spruce Mountain are above par in every way.”

Things to consider when booking a Colorado wedding venue
- Is there a good rain plan? Colorado weather can change quickly. It’s super important that your venue has a solid rain plan that you love. The Ranch has so many different indoor options, there’s sure to be one that you’ll love.
- How accessible is the venue? You want a venue that you and your guests can get to easily. Luckily this venue is only an easy 45 minute drive south of Denver.
- Will it comfortably accommodate your guest count? You don’t want to feel cramped on your wedding day. Having enough space to move around and socialize is super important. Spruce Mountain Ranch is massive and all the reception spaces have so much room to congregate and socialize.
