If you already live in Denver or have had the pleasure of vacationing there, then we don’t need to tell you why it’s so great–you already know. But, for those of you who haven’t been and are looking for a cool wedding destination–allow us to explain why Denver, CO is quickly becoming one of our favorite spots for weddings.

THE CITY ITSELF

Denver itself is one of the best reasons to have your wedding here. It's packed with one-of-a-kind attractions, trendy dining, and an awesome nightlife scene. You’ll be occupied in the days and moments leading up the “I do’s”, but your family and friends who are coming into town to celebrate will be looking for something to do. Denver (the city) has you covered. They’re so pumped about the couples flocking to The Mile High City to tie the knot, they’ve created an entire wedding resource page on the Visit Denver website. They’ve thought of everything, even sample itineraries for your guests! Now all that’s left to do is pop these babies into Canva, print them out, and add them to the welcome bag. You can also check out the official Denver events website Denver365.com for info on what else is going on in the city the week of the wedding. And the best part about making Denver part of your love story? Getting to come back and visit year after year for anniversaries and to reminisce your wedding day.
