We had our wedding at Skyview this past weekend, and we could not have asked for a better venue! The first time we toured Skyview we knew it was the space we were looking for for our small (40 people) wedding. It was a destination wedding and the views were absolutely gorgeous, and exactly what we were hoping for! Wendy was so sweet and great to work with; always very attentive when we needed her help.
I can't say enough about Wendy & Tripp and Fall River. Our wedding was absolutely magical, exactly what we wanted, and a huge part of that was due to Wendy & Tripp. They are so friendly, easy to work with, and on the big day made sure everything went off without a hitch. The venue itself is gorgeous, with many back-up plans in case the weather doesn't cooperate with an outdoor ceremony. All our guests said that it was one of the most beautiful wedding venues they'd ever been to. I can't say enough about this place and the amazing folks who run it! Thanks, Wendy & Tripp for making our wedding so amazing!
It's been a little over 6 months since our wedding day at Fall River Village and we still look back on what a perfect day it was. Tripp and Wendy made the process so comfortable and enjoyable the whole time! Not only is the space, panoramic view, the preferred vendors and onsite lodging for almost all our guests an absolute dream they were so accommodating with all of my wishes (as the bride) - and believe me I had some creative ideas.
We absolutely loved having our wedding at SkyView! We primarily worked with Wendy who was so kind, communicative, flexible, and accommodating! The venue is incredibly breathtaking and includes so many awesome extra touches such as an in-house room full of decor to borrow, a venue coordinator who helps run the rehearsal and helps coordinate on the day of, and on-site lodging within walking distance to downtown Estes Park. We chose the venue for the gorgeous setting, the on-site lodging, the dog-friendliness, and the professional & communicative staff, and we were not disappointed! We had a great time working with Wendy to make our wedding happen. As we had our wedding in the off-season, Wendy was so incredibly helpful and accommodating in giving us early access to the venue to arrange florals and set up. She was very communicative via email over the year we were planning our wedding and super helpful in making our dream wedding a reality! The best wedding venue ever, 10/10 stars from us!
The venue was undeniably stunning, which is precisely why we chose it for our wedding ceremony. The ceremony space, the balcony, and the expansive doors that opened to the breathtaking surroundings perfectly matched our vision. However, our positive expectations ended there. Despite the substantial cost, the organization left much to be desired. Communication was chaotic, and execution had its flaws.
We opted to rent tablecloths through the venue, but the tablecloth provider altered their procedures without notifying Skyview. As a result, they charged our card months in advance, contrary to what we were told. They also mishandled our payment information, attempting to charge the wrong card without confirmation. They were far from apologetic in resolving these issues.
Email correspondence suffered from disorganization, often involving multiple individuals, making it easy for details to be lost. Admittedly, I should have been more vigilant, but given the substantial cost, I expected a higher level of service.
The rental cabins initially reserved for the wrong date, despite assurances at the time of booking through Skyview. Fortunately, the lodging staff swiftly corrected this oversight, earning a 10/10 rating for their prompt assistance.
For our rehearsal dinner, we were promised access to the community room by 3:30, but upon arrival at 5:30, it remained locked, necessitating a call and a hurried response.
During our reception, some guests brought in outside alcohol, causing a stir. Regrettably, instead of addressing this issue through the designated contact, the venue workers confronted the bride and groom. Their reaction was aggressive, even after our apologies and our lack of prior knowledge. A more considerate announcement would have been preferable.
Despite the stunning venue itself, the overall experience left much to be desired. Had we known about these issues in advance, we might have chosen a different location in Estes Park. Thank you, Skyview, for the beautiful venue, but the overall experience left room for improvement.
The location is absolutely beautiful, the venue is a really great value, and Wendy and Tripp are awesome and they helped everything go so smoothly. Even our guests were amazed at how cool the venue was, and it was actually one of our cheaper options!
My only complaint would be that parking can be hard sometimes. We ran our own shuttle from Performance Park just down the hill up to the venue and back which worked really well for our guests, but I've seen other weddings at Fall River Village where guests had to park along narrow roads in Fall River Village because they ran out of normal parking spaces. Your mileage may vary, but definitely encourage guests to carpool if you have a larger wedding and plan to use Fall River Village's parking spaces.
This venue was absolutely perfect. Tripp and Wendy were so great to work with. They are very organized, responsive and helpful. They made everything so easy and seamless. I cannot say enough about how much I loved it here,
Stunning venue!!! Wendy and Tripp are amazing coordinators and will help you through the entire process. We couldn’t asked for a better venue.
Best venue ever! My husband and I had the impossible task of finding a wedding venue that both fit his fancy standards and my rustic mountain views. Skyview was perfect! And Tripp and Wendy made the entire process easy and fun! Seriously I cannot recommend this place enough!!!
SkyView is an absolutely beautiful venue, especially for folks coming from out of town. They were completely in awe of the views, even better on the rooftop! If you're looking for a location that is super accessible to downtown Estes and is family-friendly, this is the place for you. The entire resort is illuminated at night, and is quite charming. In terms of our experience with Wendy and Tripp, it went fairly smooth. Communication was decent, but felt a bit disorganized. At times, Wendy seemed irritated working with us, which only amplified the day before the wedding. She made multiple people feel like they were bothering her when they had questions or needed help. It's possible we just caught her on a bad day, but it was a bit disappointing. More of a 'let's get this over with' vibe than a 'let's have this be one of the best days of your life' vibe. Fortunately, it did not impact the day, and we still had a wonderful time.
The Honeymoon suite is also average. It's the same as all of the other rooms and since we had to book 3+ nights, it was more of a hassle to pack and move up to that room without a late checkout. We then packed back up and went back to our regular room. A late checkout or a slightly nicer room would be preferable.
SkyView at Fall River Village proved to be an ideal choice for our wedding day. The venue itself is a masterpiece, boasting picturesque views that left a lasting impression on us and our guests.
We were fortunate to work with Wendy and Tripp, two exceptional coordinators who played a pivotal role in making our day seamless. Despite a few minor hiccups along the way, their professionalism and expertise helped us navigate through any challenges. They were on-site during the wedding and reception, managing every detail and ensuring everything unfolded smoothly.
Wendy and Tripp's dedication was evident in their consistent support and meticulous planning. Their friendly demeanor made collaboration enjoyable, and their presence added an extra layer of confidence throughout the event.
SkyView at Fall River Village, paired with the remarkable coordination by Wendy and Tripp, is a recommendation we wholeheartedly endorse. For those seeking an exquisite venue and a team that goes above and beyond, this is the perfect combination for an exceptional wedding experience.
Tripp and Wendy were super helpful throughout the planning process and always available for any questions or concerns. Wendy was our assigned day of coordinator and the day ran super smoothly with her help. We stayed on schedule and everything went so smoothly! She was a great point person for us, our parties, families, and guests. She was always helpful and professional. The venue itself is absolutely stunning and multiple guests commented that it is the most beautiful venue they have ever seen. We are so thrilled that we booked Skyview at Fall River Village for our wedding and can't thank Tripp and Wendy enough!
We had a perfect day at Skyview! The venue was great, we had gotten on sight lodging for our wedding parties and had a great time! The biggest win though is having Wendy and Tripp by your side during the whole process. They are professionals and give you honest insight into how to have the best day, they replace the need to have a day of coordinator and with how beautiful the venue is we spent minimal money on flowers/decor, which overall made our very affordable. Was a great day for myself and my wife and I would recommend this venue to anyone and everyone.
Our wedding experience at Skyview was nothing short of spectacular. The mountain setting is absolutely breathtaking. And the lodging on-site, walking distance from the venue, allowed for all of our guest to enjoy a full weekend in this beautiful locale together. Also, the venue was built specifically with weddings in mind so it has everything you could possible want.
Just as importantly, Wendy & Tripp, the coordinating team, are an absolute joy to work with. They are incredibly organized, responsive, patient, and wonderful to work with. They provided so much guidance and helped us keep everything on track. The whole process was as close to stress-free as wedding planning could be.
Highly highly recommended!
Tripp and Wendy made our wedding so magically memorable! They were so incredibly helpful in the entire process (from helping out in brainstorming to ensuring our wedding night was the best) they curated everything to our needs. The views were incredible and breathtaking, the venue allowed for you to be surrounded by mountains.
Every single person we spoke with (including vendors) said our wedding was great, which couldn't have happened without Tripp and Wendy. If you want the best (stress-free) wedding book Skyiew as your venue!
We had our wedding at Fall River Village in October 2022. The venue is beautiful no matter what season you are planning your wedding. The open air canopy covering the upper deck and floor to ceiling windows surrounding the indoor area guaranteed an amazing view to host our ceremony and reception - rain or shine! This was important to us since most of our guests were traveling out of state and we wanted them to be able to appreciate the Rocky Mountains. Most of our guests stayed on site and it was so fun to see all of our friends/family in one area. We did not have a wedding planner and truthfully did not need one with Tripp and Wendy. Their attention to detail and expertise were invaluable. They treated us and our guests like family. Don't hesitate to check out Fall River Village and say hello to Tripp and Wendy for us!
Sky view at Fall River Village is the best!! I had the best wedding day with all of their help. Trip was my main point of contact and he was great! Fast with responses to emails and very knowledgeable about this industry! The venue itself is gorgeous, I fell in love with it immediately! Their preferred vendors list was also very helpful and we were happy with everyone we picked! I wouldn’t have changed a single thing about my wedding day!
We had an incredible wedding at Fall River Village. Wendy and Tripp are really great at what they do. We toured a few places and knew this was the one immediately. The property is beautiful and everyone there is super welcoming and professional. I would high recommend!
SkyView was the perfect venue for our wedding - we loved having all of our friends & family stay on-site! Tripp & Wendy were absolutely wonderful to work with, and made sure our day was seamless from start to finish.
Tripp & Wendy are amazing to work with! They are so helpful and provide guidance when needed. The venue itself is gorgeous and great to have everything all in one spot!
SkyView was an AMAZING venue for our wedding. The staff were so organized and were an absolute joy to work with. They have a lot of experience as they host several weddings regularly. The venue itself is beautiful, and it is a perfect location to host the ceremony as well as the reception. Most of our guests stayed at Fall River village and some stayed in other close by inns/hotels. The area is walkable to a lot of shops and restaurants in Estes Park. Our day was perfect, and that is because of the staff at SkyView and our vendors.
We were married at Skyview this past September and would recommend it again in a heartbeat. This is the perfect location for a mountain wedding; not only is it beautiful but it's honestly easy to get to as well (which can't be said for many mountain venues). The venue sits on a resort site so your guests can stay in the condos right at the venue which is a short walk to downtown Estes alongside the river walk.
For the actual day of. The ceremony was up on the outdoor deck overlooking the mountains. While it gets a little windy it was perfect and having a bridal suite right next to the deck is perfect. The reception took place on the main floor and having an indoor - outdoor venue was perfect for September in Colorado where it was plenty warm inside and the deck was an ideal cooling off area. We had fire pits outside on the deck as well.
Tripp and Wendy were absolutely phenomenal in helping the day go off without a hitch. They clearly have a lot of experience with wedding planning and coordinating and made sure the day happened perfectly.
We had the most perfect wedding at SkyView! The location and the views cannot be beat. The views from the roof for the ceremony were spectacular and made for a wonderful cocktail hour space. The main floor for dinner and dancing is beautiful and intimate. The large glass windows that can be open or closed are perfect for any weather condition. The outside spaces on the deck with the fire pits and chairs are also a great way for guests to feel included in the evening even if they don’t want to be inside and dancing. We had many friends and family members stay at the condos on site or at one of the local hotels that were walking distance from the venue. As part of the SkyView booking we had access to the community room and used that for welcome drinks for our guests prior to the wedding, which was an awesome way to spend more time with guests. The day of the wedding could not have gone better. Tripp and Wendy were fantastic coordinators and made our day exactly how we wanted it. We went into our initial coordinating meeting with them and immediately felt cared about and important. They were always there to quickly answer questions and think one step ahead so that everything was prepared and ready to go on our wedding day allowing us to just relax and enjoy the day. We were able to borrow a bunch of wedding decorations that are stored on site which was also so helpful and one less thing to plan and think about. We did not get a day-of coordinator because we had access to Tripp and Wendy and we felt they were better than any coordinator could have been. They truly were incredible and we loved working with them! We cannot recommend SkyView more for your special day.
We just had our daughter’s wedding at Skyview and could not have been happier with the venue, Tripp and Wendy ( who helped coordinate everything), the lodging and the views! Planning a destination wedding is stressful when you don’t have the comfort of being familiar with the facility and vendors. Tripp and Wendy helped every step of the way , answering all of our questions and helping with every request ! The photos are amazing with the beautiful views and the location is convenient to town ! We loved every minute of our incredible weekend at Skyview Fall River Lodge!
Just amazing! Tripp and Wendy were fantastic and made everything go so seamlessly. If you don't want to hire a wedding planner, make sure your venue has day planners like Tripp and Wendy. It wouldn't have been pulled off without them! We also got so many compliments on the venue itself. Gorgeous, amazing views, etc. You can't go wrong booking this venue. Highly recommend!
Trip and Wendy were the best! Super helpful throughout the entire wedding planning process. All of our guests were blown away by the venue!
Show of hands: who finds wedding planning stressful af? I’m sure it’s safe to say that if you’ve planned a wedding, or really any sort of huge event, you’re probably familiar with the dread that comes with trying to find vendors with the perfect accommodations, availability, and location. If you’re trying to find someone easy to work with as well, the stakes are a little higher. This is certainly how I felt most of the time I was planning my wedding for the last 18 months. Well, Tripp and Wendy, and SkyView at Fall River, were 100% the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.
SkyView is truly a stunning location; pictures alone won’t do justice for seeing the sky change colors at sunset from the reception deck. The views of the Continental Divide were legitimately gorgeous enough to distract me from a prompt during my ceremony, and my wife couldn’t blame me. The floor to ceiling windows gave our guests plenty of beautiful scenery to look at — seriously, don’t waste money on a lot of extra decorations. Just point to the windows.
There are beautiful accommodations at the resort, and some of our guests were thrilled to be there for the whole weekend. The resort is an easy walk to downtown Estes Park, and there are very convenient shuttle stops available nearby. It’s also a super quick drive into Rocky Mountain National Park!
Tripp and Wendy were our coordinators for the weekend, and they couldn’t have been better. They were friendly, helpful, and incredibly efficient from the start. We knew our event was in capable hands as soon as we met them, and honestly it was a huge relief to know that one of the biggest pieces of the puzzle came together perfectly, and helped keep the others in line.
I can’t recommend SkyView enough, whether for a vacation, or a wedding
The venue is absolutely beautiful and Tripp and Wendy were very helpful during the planning process and during the wedding day.
SkyView was absolutely amazing for our May wedding. We planned from a distance and took a trip to visit several venues while planning. This was the last venue we planned on visiting during the trip and had actually decided to book a different place until we saw SkyView. It checked absolutely all the boxes and was the best decision we made!
Estes Park is an adorable town with all the small town feel but all the amenities you would want. Plenty of restaurants and shops within walking distance. Some of our guests stayed at Fall River Village but many stayed at the multitude of other options within walking distance. Even with 3 other weddings happening our same weekend, the village was quiet and peaceful and we were able to enjoy time with friends and family around the main event. Many guests stayed longer and enjoyed the town and nearby hiking.
Tripp and his team were fantastic. SkyView changed ownership after we booked so we were concerned until we met with Tripp. He has a ton of event experience and made everything super easy. Everything was ready to go the day of the wedding and were flexible about moving things around to best fit our needs. We did all photos on-site at either the rock wall or off the balconies and they all turned out amazing. We were able to open the glass walls during the reception and guests loved being able to hangout on the balcony by firetables in-between dancing. This place was perfect for us!
Amazing venue with amazing views. The staff were extremely helpful and an absolute pleasure to work with.
SkyView is truly a dream. The building is modern, beautiful and a perfect space for both the ceremony and reception. I would recommend using the natural beauty of the building and the surroundings as the focus for your "decorations".
We got a hands-on experience with Tripp and his team from start to finish. They are the best in the business, provided helpful tips while also letting our vision come to life. Any question or request we had was met with enthusiasm and sincerity.
We found this venue online during the peak of COVID-19, we fell in love with the photos online and took a chance and booked it sight-unseen. We did not get to visit the venue until almost a year after we booked it and only a few months before our wedding, it was all we hoped for and more. The venue manager, Tripp, was an all star and helped us create our dream and make it a reality. The venue itself is so beautiful, you barely need decorations, the views speak for themselves. The flexibility and experience of the venue team (Tripp & Wendy) made the entire day so easy and stress free. We would get married here again in a heartbeat. This venue will really immerse you in the beauty that is the Rocky Mountains and keep you close enough to dowtown Estes Park that all guests can easily access the town. 10/10 would recommend Skyview at Fall River Village to any couple.
Tripp was our wedding coordinator at this venue this year and he was everything a wedding coordinator should be and he went above and beyond. This venue has stunning rooms and sights, and is truly worth every minute. They are also dog friendly!! I am 100% satisfied with using them for my wedding
Beautiful venue with amazing views! Tess and her team went above and beyond for our brunch wedding and we are so thankful for them. The day could not have gone as perfectly as it did without them!
Our wedding was a dream come true with Fall River Village. Aside from the INCREDIBLE views and perfect venue, Tess & Kayla are incredible and will make sure you don't miss any of the details. They are onsite all day, help ensure your are running on time, and keep the day running. I originally did not hire a wedding planner because I was confident I could do it myself. Wow - without their team, I would've been in trouble. They are truly experts and because of them, we had the most perfect day with little stress.
Skyview at Fall River Village was an absolutely magical place to get married. We wanted a venue that was outside but didn't want to spend the whole month worrying about the weather, so the half covered rooftop was a perfect option for the ceremony. We loved that the doors opened up to give the reception space an breath of fresh air, with the balconies acting as the perfect place to take a break from the dance floor. We also LOVED having everyone stay in the condos on site, making it feel like a full weekend with our guests and not just one night. Finally, Tess was a dream to work with, answering every question and helping us ensure the day was easy and fun. We felt at ease the whole day because we knew we were in good hands!
Trust us, 3500 characters are nowhere near enough to describe how magical our experience with SkyView at Fall River Village was. We planned our wedding right in the middle of the pandemic, and Tess was there to help every step of the way — when we couldn’t come tour the venue, she sent us pictures and gave us a live video tour over FaceTime. She kept us updated on protocols and guest limits as we moved closer to June 2021, and then celebrated with us when everyone could get vaccinated. She even went the extra mile to store our wedding decorations for us several weeks before our event because our family had no other way to get them from our many different home states to Colorado in time for the event. On the day of, she was composed and witty and full of joyful energy, despite the fact that she’d just come off hosting 12 weddings in 13 days. Tess is marvelous, and the venue itself is magical. GORGEOUS rooftop ceremony area, plus the reception room is so unique and lovely with plenty of room for dancing and giant doors that slide open to let in the mountain breeze. The bridal suite is perfect for getting ready, and we were even able to host our rehearsal dinner in the resort’s community room. Fall River had perfect condos for all of our family, plus several bridal parties members, and it’s close to everything, including Rocky Mountain National Park, where my husband and I took wedding photos after the ceremony. Estes Park is an absolutely magical place, and my husband and I will be joyfully reliving our time at SkyView for the rest of our lives.
I fell in LOVE with Fall River Village the moment I saw the venue. Words cant explain how beautiful the outdoor ceremony/cocktail space is with a picture-perfect backdrop and an elegant ambiance for guests. The venue is amazing, but the coordinator, Tess, is who truly deserves my 5 star review. She went above and beyond to make our wedding possible. Due to COVID we almost had to cancel our wedding just a few short weeks before our day. By the grace of God, we miraculously got approval from the county to allow us to, at least, have our small ceremony at FRV just 3 DAYS before the wedding. Tess helped us throw everything back together in such a short amount of time and we couldnt be more thankful! If you're looking for a venue in Estes Park then this is it! Not only is it beautiful and having amazing staff, but your family and friends can all stay together there as well!
This was the second wedding we planned due to COVID-19. We will forever be thankful we were led to this venue as our plan B! The vibe is fun, relaxed, airy, and peaceful at SkyView. Tess was an absolute pleasure to work with, she knows what she's doing.
Tess and Sarah at SkyView are simply the BEST EVER! Our wedding was originally planned for April 2020 but we obviously had to postpone. During what could have been a very stressful time, Tess and Sarah made the process seem so easy! They responded right away to all of our questions and keep us in the loop in the weeks and months leading up to our rescheduled date. It seemed like things were changing by the minute but they were in constant contact with us. Our wedding day could not have been more perfect, everyone in our bridal party knew exactly where to be and when. The ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner and all of the reception events started on time. Our families commented to us after how amazingly smooth our wedding ran and how beyond impressed they were with Tess and Sarah! The venue itself is stunning, the pictures do not do it justice! The views from the ceremony deck are what dreams are made of! The reception space is perfect - from the lay out to the deck - it is all amazing. The accommodations are fabulous and we can't wait to stay there again. Look no further than SkyView to host your dream wedding...we HIGHLY, HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!
Skyview at Fall River Village is an absolutely beautiful venue. Wherever you go on the property, you will find a stunning view.
More importantly though, the staff at Skyview at Fall River Village are absolutely incredible. We worked primarily with Tess throughout the planning process. From the start, you can tell that Tess knows her stuff. During the tour, she can already help you start planning your day, and answer any question you throw at her. In the middle of our wedding planning, the COVID-19 pandemic hit. This threw a wrench in our plans, but Tess and the Fall River Village staff made this process so much easier. Tess was in constant contact with us, keeping us up to date on the venue's status. She also worked very hard to provide a safe environment, while still maintaining the true atmosphere of a wedding. By the end of it, Tess was able to support every request we had of her, and we had a beautiful wedding. From start to finish, I could not have been happier with our venue choice. I HIGHLY recommend choosing Skyview at Fall River Village for your wedding.
SkyView at Fall River Village was an exceptional venue for our wedding! Tess and Sarah were amazing and super wonderful to work with. Highly recommended! Even during a very trying and crazy year of 2020, they provided us with everything we needed and we are truly grateful to have worked with them. The SkyView venue itself provided spectacular views and our wedding day was such fun. We had an amazing day and our guests enjoyed themselves so much. Thank you again Tess, Sarah and SkyView at Fall River Village. Shout out to Tom at Fall River Village with our accommodations too.
Skyview is an absolutely breathtaking venue. The design and setting of the building are unlike anything else you will find in the area. The rooftop is the perfect setting for a ceremony, with amazing views of the mountains. All of our guests were blown alway. The space is perfectly designed for weddings.
On top of the amazing space, you get to work with wonderful staff. Planning a wedding during Covid was stressful to say the least, and Tess and Sarah communicated regularly with us about what the day would look like. They were extremely understanding and kind during these circumstances.
On wedding day, the helped us set everything up, and they worked with our vendors to get everything done on time. I can honestly say wedding day was seamless, and I owe much of that to this fabulous team. This is an amazing venue, I wouldn’t change a thing. HIGHLY recommend ☺️
Best. Decision. Ever. Working with Sarah and Tess at Fall River Village throughout the entire wedding planning process was incredible. Their love of what they do and how much they care about each couple is evident. Through phone calls, emails, and Zoom calls, their responsiveness and helpfulness was amazing. There were many uncertain things because of COVID, but Tess and Sarah communicated everything and kept me up to date with every step of the way. I had so much faith in Sarah and Tess, I wasn't even worried! On the day of the wedding, everything was perfect! They truly went above and beyond to make sure that we had a wonderful day. Everything about my experience at Fall River Village was amazing!
I can't say enough good things about SkyView and the awesome team there! The venue is beautiful, the views from the deck are stunning and the lodging on site is so amazing! Tess is amazing to work with - she is prompt to answer questions and help you plan out every detail. She really cares about the couples that choose to get married at SkyView, and bends over backwards to ensure your day is perfect. Absolutely recommend!
We have had the most above and beyond experience with Tess and Sarah. They are quick to answer questions and have answers to questions you did not even know you had! They genuinely care about making your wedding day uniquely yours and will go above and beyond to make your dream a reality. If I could hire them for any other important life event, I would do it in a heartbeat! Thank you SkyView for such a sky high experience!
This venue is awesome. We got married here in February. The outside ceremony with amazing views, inside reception with open windows and a wrap around deck . Location is close to downtown Estes Park and accommodations onsite! Working with Tess and Sarah was pleasant as well. HIGHLY recommend this venue!!
Tess and Sarah were very easy to work with and they really worked to make the day catered to us. They helped our day run very smoothly, and the area was so beautiful.
Tess and Sarah were amazing to work with. If anybody had questions, they were able to provide answers as soon as possible. We had a guest count of 24 and Tess had amazing ideas on how to set up our dinner tables so that the space was not so empty. The venue is absolutely beautiful and the view is breathtaking. It was so perfect for our special day!
I couldn’t have asked for a more perfect venue. The rooftop deck at SkyView Fall River Village in Estes Park was more than I could have hoped for. The views were incredible and the staff, especially Tess, made everything flow so easily. Tess helped make the day as carefree as possible and I was actually able to really enjoy my time without worrying about a thing. We had travelers from across the country that raved about the location and accommodations. It really was the perfect wedding and I owe it to the venue for sure. After the ceremony we enjoyed a rooftop cocktail hour and then went downstairs to the venue space which is gorgeous as is, so we didn’t need too many decorations. At sunset the sliding doors were opened so we could enjoy the late-August air and an open air reception. Once the doors were closed, the fire pits And couches on the deck made a great place to step away from the music and catch up with friends and loved ones. Most of the attendees stayed onsite at the townhomes and condos on property, which was walking distance to downtown. I highly recommend SkyView if you want the perfect wedding.
Couldn't be happier to have found this absolutely stunning venue! The view of the mountains and the sunset that went on behind them was spectacular. I felt like a queen. The wedding coordinators were flawless with their execution. Tess and Sarah made sure my wedding was flawless and it was! I would recommend this venue to everyone! Thank you Fall River for making our special day more amazing than we could ever expect!
My husband and I toured Sky View while it was still under construction. Despite not knowing how it would look once finished, it was still, hands down, the best of the four venues we saw. Tess was always available to answer questions throughout our planning process, though at times responses were a tad delayed. Our wedding day couldn't have been any more perfect. Tess was amazing. It started raining a couple hours before our ceremony and Tess and the Sky View team were ready to change our ceremony setup to allow for all of our guests and ourselves to be underneath the canopy. Tess left shortly after our ceremony, after first checking in with me to ensure everything was perfect. She left us in the more than capable hands of Sarah. Sarah was just as amazing as Tess and really worked hard to make sure our reception ran smoothly. These two ladies truly were the best and I know my wedding day would not have been as perfect without all of their help and hard work! The venue itself has unbeatable views and our friends and family all had nothing but great things to say about their experience. I would highly recommend Sky View for anyone looking to get married in Estes Park!
My husband and I got married at SkyView at Fall River Village in early September and we could not have asked for a better experience. Tess and her team at SkyView were incredible, so accommodating, and made me feel completely at ease on my big day. The view from the rooftop is breathtaking. The doors that open up downstairs make you feel like you are one with nature. I cannot recommend SkyView at Fall River Village enough. We were so pleased with everything from the initial tour, to the walk through with Tess, to the big day... this place is simply the best.
Fall River Village was the perfect venue. Great scenery, great staff and beautiful location. Tess was amazing to work with and made the wedding day so smooth. Our guests had a wonderful time. I would pick this venue over and over again!
Venue: You cannot go wrong with this venue for your wedding. Had the ceremony and cocktail hour upstairs which is partially covered (good for shade in our case). The view is just spectacular and the set-up for everything was hassle free. The indoor space downstairs was used for the reception.We had a 11 table solution(wedding party of roughly 100 people) which still allowed for a good dance floor. Weather was cooperating so we could open doors that allowed to expand the area to outdoor beautiful patio as well. The setup and arrangements were simple but beautiful for our wedding guests to enjoy. There is also a very nice addition of the Bridal Suite that is close to where the ceremony took part that had everything we needed to get ready. All in all very convenient and hassle free venue that gives a touch of class to the wedding.
Staff: Tess was great to work with, laid back and very accommodating to our wishes. We did use a wedding coordinator also who worked closely with Tess and that went smoothly. We went for a non-traditional two isle solution which turned out great. Tess and staff are also great when it comes to working with other vendors. We did not have to do much other than share our visions and sit back and relax.
We could not have asked for more for our wedding ceremony and reception and would recommend this space to anyone who is looking for beautiful views, hassle free arrangement and just want to relax and have fun!
At the beginning of our wedding planning, my husband and I made a list of all the things we were looking for in a perfect wedding venue. Once we visited SkyView, we knew it was the place we wanted to get married. We loved the mountain views, open air, and rustic touches. We were able to choose our own vendors and customize the space. Many of our guests were visiting from out-of-state, and we loved that Fall River Village gave many of them an excuse to extend their stay in Estes. The venue’s proximity to downtown and Rocky Mountain National Park is unbeatable. At times, it was a bit difficult to get ahold of the venue, but in all of our interactions with the staff, they were accommodating and hospitable. Tess, the wedding coordinator, was great to work with. Her confidence and professionalism assured my husband and I that the day was under control. Tess was on-site from our morning rehearsal to the last song. She worked behind the scenes to ensure that our day flowed smoothly and was extremely detail oriented. My husband and I appreciated the small touches such as having appetizers left in the wedding suite when we went to sign our marriage license and desserts left in the honeymoon suite at the end of the night! We had the best and most memorable wedding day and are so grateful for SkyView for helping it all come together. We would highly recommend this venue!
SkyView was truly a dream for my husband and I. We were planning a wedding from Missouri and could count on Tess and other Fall River employees to answer all of our millions of questions. We had our wedding and cocktail hour on the rooftop, then moved downstairs for the reception. Tess was basically the best wedding planner of all time! She remembered every little detail and provided me with lists of amazing vendors she had worked with previously. I was not stressed one bit the day of and I truly believe I have her and the rest of the staff at Fall River to thank for that. We looked into a lot of places in Estes Park, but we would pick SkyView over and over again!
The venue was amazing with beautiful views. The staff was excellent and help us in so many ways.
SkyView is a beautiful venue, and our wedding there was lovely. It was so fun and convenient for our family and friends to be able to stay so close to the venue and made it so special for us. However, working with the staff at SkyView was difficult. What matters is that me, my husband, and our families had a wonderful, special day - but, we could have had that anywhere when it comes down to it. Tess and SkyView did nothing to contribute to that special day, and in fact jeopardized it. From our first tour with Tess at the venue she was difficult to work with, rude, and overall unpleasant - the only reason we decided to move forward with SkyView despite the bad first impression was because she made it sound like she would be very hands-off as far as planning and the day-of went. We were having a non-traditional wedding from front to back - no sit-down dinner, we had mixed seating options instead of a room full of tables, and more than anything we wanted to have a fun, carefree celebration so we had a larger than normal area for dancing (which we used every inch of!). It was clear at the walkthrough that Tess did not approve of this vision (later we found out that she said that was because she couldn't "sell" the venue with a non-traditional seating arrangement), and despite us having had hours of conversations with our wedding coordinator to make this vision a reality, Tess had very negative comments and was pushing back on a lot of our ideas with unnecessary, unwanted opinions on things that we had already decided. It was clear that her vision for weddings is a much more traditional approach - which is of course fine, but that was not our vision for our dream day. It was also clear at the walkthrough that Tess is not used to working with a wedding coordinator - the power struggle was evident from the beginning of the meeting, and Tess's poor attitude toward our coordinator really hindered us from being able to discuss the important aspects of the wedding that we were there to go over, especially the floor plan. Tess was instead focusing on things that we had already spent time with our wedding coordinator going over (including asking for our addresses. phone numbers, and other information they also already had on the contract), whether we having a bouquet toss, etc. Fast forward to the rehearsal at the venue the day before the wedding, and Tess didn't even bother to say hello to me, my husband, or our family. I had to approach her and the assistant, and when I did they were extremely rude and even had the audacity to mention that they tried to re-work the floor plan that I had made and asked whether I would be willing to change it... 24 hours before the wedding. After the wedding, they charged our card for damages that we weren't made aware of, without telling us about them - they even claimed that we ruined somewhere around 30 of their napkins, even though we didn't use any of their napkins for our event. Unfortunately, these are just a few examples of what we went through when working with Tess and SkyView - our wedding coordinator got the brunt of her bad attitude, but it certainly did not make the wedding planning process easy for us. Overall, I would not recommend having your wedding at SkyView until they get new staff that are willing to work with a bride and groom's vision with understanding, excitement and patience - a wedding is supposed to be a celebratory, happy day and Tess did absolutely nothing to help get us there.
We are so lucky to have found this site for our reception! The venue and the views are unbelievable! We only had our reception at SkyView so we used the upstairs open-air space for cocktail hour, which our guests loved. Working with the staff, especially Tess, was such a pleasure! She was knowledgable, patient, and so much fun! Her help with planning and day-of coordination was invaluable because she went above and beyond to make sure the day ran smoothly. They took such good care of us from start to finish, and we could not have found a better location for our wedding!
I came across SkyView at Fall River Village because a friend suggested Estes Park as a wedding location. I started looking around online at venues in the area. As is true with a lot of mountain side towns, everything I found was like a wood-cabin. While I knew I wanted to get married in Colorado, I also knew that I had no interest having a wedding in a log cabin like venue. Then I stumbled across the rendering for SkyView. The venue was still under construction so all I had to look at were the rendering and inspiration photos online. I live in Texas so I couldn't even drive by to view the area! Everything I could see and read about the vision for this venue was exactly what I wanted. While still in a mountain town, there is nothing wood-cabin about this place. It's more contemporary and absolutely BEAUTIFUL! I trusted my gut and booked this venue sight unseen (and still under construction).
I made a trip to Estes Park about 3 months after booking. I was able to meet the staff that would be working with us, as well as tour the venue with my hard hat to get an idea of the space. I knew then, even before the venue was complete, that we made the right decision. I worked with Tess from afar to create the perfect day. Tess was much more than just a coordinator. She helped with anything/everything, and even hand delivered curtains for the brand new townhouses that all of our family stayed in. On the day of, Tess made sure everything was set up the way we talked about, kept everyone on schedule, found solutions for our 35MPH wind gusts, etc! The majority of our friends and all of our family stayed on site at Fall River Village. The townhouses were the perfect setup for my large family, and the condos are great too!
This venue has the best view, a fantastic floor plan, and an amazing staff! I would recommend it to any/all who are interested in getting married in Estes Park!!!
Recently had my wedding here- we were the first wedding party to have to utilize the inside option for the venue due to pretty crappy weather issues the day of the wedding (primarily the wind was the problem!). They did their best to accommodate the last minute change (literally the hour before the ceremony!). I would say that there are some tweaks to be worked out as it was difficult to do pre-pictures where people were showing up to the venue (early) but overall it was awesome. Great functional space and Tess was excellent with assisting. Very responsive and direct which is always helpful.
We did a destination elopment in Estes Park, CO. Planning everything from Missouri was pretty difficult, but we kept in contact with Fall River Village all throughout the process. We had everything we needed at the venue and Fall River Village was so accommodating with things we needed!! Would highly recommend to anyone!
My fiancé and I knew we were taking a gamble when we booked SkyView at Fall River Village for our wedding, site unseen and still under construction. When we finally had time to get to Estes Park, we wound up visiting four other popular wedding venues. After we left each location, we turned to each other and said “SkyView is still my favorite!” Needless to say, booking SkyView at FRV turned out to be one of the best decisions we could have made! FRV is absolutely gorgeous! The design elements matched our style perfectly! I’ve seen pictures of weddings that have decor for the venue, but we chose to let this wonderful venue and view speak for itself. The staff at FRV are so helpful and accommodating. The guest rooms and townhouses are perfect for traveling families. All in all, there’s nothing I would have changed about my wedding day, and FRV was a large part of the successful day.
My husband and I were the first wedding at the SkyView at Fall River Village on August 3, 2018. We booked the venue while it was still in the process of being built, (a little crazy? Maybe.) but we are so thankful we did. Everything about this venue surpassed our expectations and hopes. To say it was the perfect day at the perfect venue would be an understatement. The ceremony space is to die for; the views alone are incredible and the reception hall was the most beautiful space I had ever been in for any event. Many of our guests are still talking about this venue/ceremony space and how it was the best they had ever seen as well. Our wedding was a destination wedding, it was a pleasure to work with Tess as she accommodated our every need from the start of planning until the last guest left the venue. I would 100% recommend this space to anyone and everyone. We are so blessed to of had our wedding here, it was an incredible place to begin our journey as husband and wife.
We had our wedding at Fall River Village this August and it was picture perfect! We were one of the couples who had to relocate our wedding from Mary's Lake Lodge (due to the fire), and we were so thankful to have found SkyView! They helped us replan our wedding in just 8 short weeks and gave us wonderful vendor recommendations for food/beverage as we frantically tried to find anyone who was still available on short notice. SkyView is literally the most beautiful location and everything ran so smoothly for us. Thank you to Tess and the rest of the team for saving our wedding day and making it even better than we could have hoped!
If you are planning your Wedding in Estes Park, this is the place to do it! The views from the rooftop Ceremony space are absolutely AMAZING and the building's modern features and amenities are the best of the best! Our Wedding Coordinator, Tess, and her team were so professional, organized and accommodating - we were so thrilled to work with them and they made the planning process and our Wedding day seamless! We were lucky enough to be one of the first weddings held in this venue, and it was everything and more than we could've imagined. Our guests are still talking about how beautiful everything was. I would highly recommend Skyview if you are dreaming of having breathtaking mountain views and exquisite accommodations for your Wedding Day. xo
