My husband and I were married here in June 2001. The mountain setting is gorgeous and unbeatable. The owners and staff were great to work with. We had an amazing wedding and are so glad we choose Lionscrest Manor. We also have the pleasure of working here as wedding photographers since 2000 and can speak to their continued professionalism. The location is still amazing and the staff is some of the best in the industry.

We had our wedding at the Callahan House in June 2025. It was a wonderful experience, from beginning to end. We picked the venue in early November 2023 and were able to take tours throughout the year as we planned. The grounds were beautiful, with soft grass and the fountain running throughout the night. There was ample space for us and our 50 guests, with plenty of room for yard games and dancing. Guests were able to sit inside if they wanted to. Brittaney was great to work with and ensured our experience went smoothly. The Callahan House was an affordable and beautiful venue; we received compliments on the choice throughout the night and truly enjoyed the gardens ourselves.

Awarded Best of Zola
The St Vrain is such a beautiful venue with intentionally decorated spaces. Mark and Annie were wonderful to work with and very communicative. We got married in April and unfortunately were unlucky with the weather, however, we didn’t have to worry much since the St Vrain is primarily indoors, spacious and was easily able to accommodate our 120 guests. Some of their recommended vendors were out of our price range so we had to do a little additional research to find the right vendors for us. Overall, we are extremely glad we chose the St Vrain.
