Mount Vernon Canyon Club is a historic wedding venue based in Golden, CO. Set 7,600 feet into the sky and just 20 minutes away from Denver City, this site offers spectacular views like no other. Couples can exchange vows amidst the striking mountain-top scenery, looking over the lights of the city. This venue was founded in the early 1920's after World War One had come to an end. The property was originally intended as a country club, with individual homes for its members to enjoy an escape in the mountains. Throughout this time, the club hosted dinner dances while the members enjoyed sports such as golf and croquettes. During the aftermath of World War Two, the mountain homes were used for residential purposes, while the club continued to host family dinners for occupants. Renovations to the original structure began in the 1960s, as the site kept pace with changing times. These renovations were based on making the most out of the unique location. Visitors can now enjoy breathtaking panoramic views from inside the warmth of the club, or enjoy the tranquil ambience of nature on the decking. This venue caters to all ceremony types. For couples wishing to make the most of the glorious surrounding landscape, ceremonies can be held on the outdoor decking. With a stunning backdrop of mountains during the day, or lit up at twilight, this location offers a truly gorgeous setting for wedding pictures. This venue also offers three elegant indoor event rooms, each with their own private deck, large windows, and scenic views. Mount Vernon Canyon Club can accommodate up to 220 guests. In addition to wedding ceremonies and receptions, they can cater to rehearsal dinners, luncheons, showers, and engagement parties. Catering needs are taken care of by the club’s in-house chef, Ryan Wolf. Couples can choose from a variety of menu options, including hors d'oeuvres, plated meals, or buffets, as well as stations. While the chef does allow couples to bring their wedding cake, he is also happy to create a custom-made cake that they can design. The club offers a range of services in their wedding packages, including the use of reception tables and chairs, along with setup of the room. They can provide items such table linens, napkins in a choice of colors, plates, and flatware. The site provides ample parking. To assist the couple in the planning process, the team also offers a list of vendors. This includes services such as florists, music, officiants, photographers, transportation, specialty rental services, and wedding planners. As there is no on-site accommodation, recommendations for hotels are also available. Take a 360° Virtual Tour and enjoy an exclusive sneak peek of Mount Vernon Canyon Club today!

Out of the many wedding venues we saw in the Denver/Front Range and Estes Park area, this was by far our favorite. The views are stunning and even though we live in Colorado, it was a destination wedding for many, so we thought it was the perfect venue to showcase the mountains to everyone who was coming in from out of town. Barbara was with us every step of the way and she was amazing, patiently answering our hundreds of questions and going above and beyond to make sure our day was as perfect as could be. The food was also spectacular and our guests were raving to us about it. We loved getting to speak to the chef at the tasting and were thrilled that the staff was able to accommodate a little Brazilian flair by adding pão de queijo to the menu and caipirinhas as the signature cocktail! There was NOTHING Mount Vernon could have done to make our wedding any better. The only thing I would have changed (that the staff had no control over) was we had unexpectedly cold and cloudy weather for the ceremony, but it cleared up by the reception--and everyone says a little rain is good luck for your marriage anyway. :)

We had such an amazing experience with Mount Vernon. Nicole was so great to work with and she made sure all our questions were answered in a timely manner, every detail was figured out, and was so kind and generous with her time. Mount Vernon has so much space and the surrounding mountains created such a beautiful backdrop for photos, especially with the snow we had on our wedding day. The food was amazing and we heard nothing but good reviews from our guests. One more thing I'd like to say about Nicole; when my husband and I arrived to MVCC after our ceremony (held at a different location), Nicole was there to greet us and brought us to a separate room so I could bustle my dress. She also brought us hot chocolate, drinks, and hors d'oeuvres. She was outstanding the whole night. After the wedding, when we were sorting through all our things, we couldn't find our special champagne flutes we used at the reception. We contacted Nicole and she was able to track them down for us. All around such an amazing experience with MVCC and I would highly recommend.

My husband and I got married at Mount Vernon in September and when I say it was the most perfect day, I mean it. Mount Vernon was the first venue that we looked at after being engaged, and we felt like it could be our venue from the very first time we saw it. The grounds are beautiful, and ceremony, dinner, and reception areas are wonderful, and the staff is incredible. We met Barbara the first time we visited Mount Vernon and she was a huge part of the reason we ultimately ended up choosing Mount Vernon for our wedding venue. She has the biggest heart for her clients, cares deeply about what she does, and from the very beginning, she made us feel like she had everything 100% under control and reassured us that we would not need to stress at all about things running smoothly on wedding day. Everything about our wedding day was handled perfectly. As promised, Barbara and the entire staff at Mount Vernon made us feel so taken care of the entire day. Barbara was communicative the entire time leading up to the wedding and really did make sure every little detail was in place to ensure that our day went smoothly. We are so incredible grateful for Barbara for making our day exactly as we had hoped. In addition to the incredible staff, the food was delicious. Our guests complimented the food all night and many went up for seconds at the buffet. Our wedding day is a day we will never forget and we will always be so grateful we were able to have it at Mount Vernon. Thank you so much for being such an important part of our day!!

Barbara was AMAZING! Not only did she help coordinate everything, she made sure that my bride and I were comfortable and content. Waited on hand an foot practically. The staff was engaging and everything was perfect. For a small wedding it was perfect. I would highly recommend to anyone.

My husband Eric and I hosted our dream destination wedding at Mount Vernon Canyon Club on August 25, 2024. We had the great privilege of working with Barbara Aguilar from the moment we sent in our first inquiry regarding the venue, to the moment our special day ended. Barbara is not only an exceptional service provider, but truly a genuine, caring person. We coordinated everything with her via email and phone as we are based in Boston, MA. She was responsive, kind, and provided us with thoughtful, effective advice the whole way through. On the day of our wedding, everything ran smoothly — it was truly the perfect day. The views at MVCC are breathtaking — sharing our vows on the deck overlooking the foothills surrounded by our closest family and friends is a core memory. From the cocktail hour to the reception, the staff supporting Barbara were attentive and kind to us and all of our guests. The quality of the food and drinks exceeded our expectations. We were able to bring our design vision to life as the venue gave us full autonomy on our vendor selections. We did not have to worry about anything, and were able to truly stay immersed, soaking in every moment. Special thank you to Barbara for her commitment to us. We are forever grateful to have chosen MVCC as our wedding venue, and will cherish the memories that we made there for the rest of our lifetime.

Our wedding at Mt. Vernon was absolutely incredible! Nicole and her staff helped to make it everything that we wanted! The food, drinks, and views were incredible! Everyone was extremely attentive-the pre-wedding meetings and coordination was so helpful and everything up to and during the big day was made a priority by the Mt. Vernon personnel! We are SO happy that we had our wedding here!!!

Had my wedding here 9/1/2024. Absolutely fantastic experience. Venue is beautiful with stunning views. Food is a top highlight (short rib!). Wait staff and bartenders were engaged and enthusiastic, unlike some other venues I’ve been too. Nicole is a godsend. Definitely host your next event here.

Mount Vernon Canyon Club enabled us have the wedding of our dreams! We planned our wedding without a planner or a coordinator, and were able to pull it off thanks to the amazing staff at Mt Vernon and their stellar list of recommended vendors. Barbara Aguilar was our venue manager and she was so great at making sure everything ran smoothly. Every time we had a moment of panic during planning, she helped us find a solution. We used LaCamera for photography and Elite Entertainment for the DJ, and it was clear all three groups worked well with each other. We received so many compliments on the venue, the scenery, the food, and the DJ. Would definitely recommend!

My husband and I recently had the honor of celebrating our long-awaited destination wedding in Golden, Colorado (all the way from upstate NY) with 50 of our closest friends & family (all traveling from the east coast). Planning a destination wedding without a hired coordinator is no joke... but working Ms. Barbara Aguilar with Mount Vernon gave me full faith that they would be able to bring my wedding vision to life. Working with Barbara and Mount Vernon Canyon Club to plan for our big day was convenient, detailed, and had a personal touch every step of the way. Their team worked with me remotely to pull together exactly what I wanted & more! I was able to share my vision with them and they provided me a full list of option and price points to meet all of our different requests - it truly took so much stress and time away to know that our big day was in excellent hands.

The most magical day all thanks the wonderful staff at Mount Vernon but especially because of Nicole. She was there to help through everything. We’re not from Colorado nor do we live there now and after we picked this venue all of the other Vendors were recommended through them. It cut the search in half after Nicole gave us that list which saved my sanity. The views here are incredible, so many different spots for pictures around the venue. The food was so delicious and they even gave each of us a plate to take home! All of the staff were so friendly and even told me they were having fun! So many good things to say about Mount Vernon Canyon Club!! Thank you for the best day ever!

Our wedding was absolutely stunning!! Nicole Truax at the venue was a superstar, keeping everyone on time and making sure we had everything we needed at all times. There was such good cross-vendor communication to make our day as perfect as possible. Nicole helped me plan for about a year and it was so much better than I could have ever imagined! I would highly highly recommend MVCC for both a stunning backdrop for your wedding and an incredibly generous, professional and kind staff.

Mount Vernon Canyon Club was a wonderful venue to have our wedding! Everything went absolutely perfect. The deck view overlooking Clear Creek Canyon and the Table Mountains hooked us -- gorgeous cascading pine trees and mountain views. (We lucked out with great weather but the venue had alternative options available inside for the ceremony if needed.) Barbara was amazing to work with and gave us many tips on food count and other items to help make decision-making easier. On the day of she also made sure to save us some of the hors d’oeuvres while we were out taking photos. The grilled cheese and tomato soup along with the mini-tacos were a hit! All the food was amazing and the venue had many options to adjust to food allergies and restrictions. Overall, the view is to die for, plenty of customization options and packages for food and alcohol, and we loved every second of our wedding!

We could not have asked for a better venue and staff team to make our day one for the books! Nicole and her team were incredibly responsive and flexible leading up to the event, and were absolutely on-point the day of! This venue has stunning views, good food, and a responsive service team! We are delighted with our experience with MVCC!

Mount Vernon Canyon Club - Golden, CO Beautiful venue, impeccable service. Mount Vernon Canyon Club located in beautiful Golden Colorado was the location for the Welcome/Rehearsal Dinner for our son’s wedding. The courteous staff provided impeccable service. The theme was “Italian” as they got engaged in Italy. The Italian-inspired cuisine was nothing short of delicious. Our deepest heartfelt gratitude to the remarkable team at Mount Vernon Canyon Club, and to Nicole Truax, whose dedication and hard work ensured that this evening would be unforgettable. Thank you for making this night truly extraordinary. Pat & Gary Ervick (Groom’s Parents)

Mount Vernon Canyon Club hosted our rehearsal dinner on September 15th, 2023. Their events team handled every detail perfectly throughout the process, as well as all items day of with incredible attention to detail and professionalism. Nicole and her team were able to handle our huge rehearsal dinner group (about 100 people) with ease. The Italian buffet was phenomenal and they took all of our dietary restrictions into account with zero issues. We will always recommend Mount Vernon to anyone who needs a place for any sort of event or wedding.

Mount Vernon Canyon Club was fabulous!! We had our wedding in April, on the day of it snowed and I chose to continue with having the ceremony outside. The views did not disappoint. Our guests were all from out of state and could not stop talking about it! Also they raved about our food for the reception!! We worked with Barbara and the whole process was so easy, I had so much trust in the venue coordinators. It was the greatest experience ever and a memory my family and friends will cherish forever.

Mount Vernon Canyon Club was the perfect place for our wedding! Kara was great to work with. She was prompt with answering questions and gave us great suggestions. The food was awesome! We got several compliments on how good it was and great the service was. They helped make our day absolutely perfect! I would recommend this venue to anyone!

Being from out of town, searching for venues is a little tricky. We looked at over 100 and I knew when I saw Mount Vernon Canyon Club online, that it was the right place for us. We flew out and met with Nicole and confirmed my original suspicion. The view of the mountains off the deck was exactly what we were looking for . Nicole was amazing with everything leading up to the day of the wedding, even when we had to change the date. She was great day of as well. The staff was incredibly attentive and I have never felt so special! Thank you to Nicole and the team for making our day so memorable!

We had our wedding reception here just last month.. and I am still in awe of how amazing it was. As a bride, I was sooo anxious leading up to my wedding about how all the hard work I’ve done would be executed. Thankfully, I could not have been more at peace the day of our wedding. Barbara, and the entire team there are some of the kindest, most accommodating people in the industry. The views, food, service ALL beyond fabulous. So many guests commented that it was the single best wedding food they’ve ever had - or just best meal in general! We rented both rooms - upper level was dinner and lower level was cocktail hour and dance. It was perfect. We had passed apps : Caprese bites, Thai shrimp, and Kobe beef sliders. For meals we had : beef short ribs, chicken scaloppini, and risotto. Barbara you are a true God sent, and we will remember you for the rest of our lives - I truly don’t know how to summarize how amazing you are - thank you.

I had been dreaming of a wedding at Mount Vernon as long as I can remember. Nicole and the rest of the staff made that dream come true with ease! The process was smooth and stress free. The venue itself is breath taking as you picture yourself saying your vows on the side of a gorgeous mountain. The food is mouthwatering. Everyone is so kind and attentive. I would recommend this experience to any couple looking for an elegant and affordable venue. I wish I could go back and do it all over again.

Mount Vernon Canyon Club is amazing! Not only is the view great but the food we had at our reception is probably the best food I’ve had at a wedding…and I’ve been to a lot of weddings. The food was freshly prepared and beef melted in your mouth. Nicole worked with us as our event’s director and I cannot say enough good things about her! She went above and beyond to help us not only before but on our actual wedding day! She did everything from taking time to help blow up balloons for our exit, making sure everyone was lined up for the ceremony, to getting our plates for us at dinner. She made us feel so welcomed and like family by the end of the night. If I couldn’t find some one Nicole definitely could and would she was there best! The staff was so kind too! They even made us a plate and put it in the bridal suite for when we got hungry later I couldn’t say enough good things about everyone that worked there! From the bartender to the kitchen staff that would come out to check and make sure everything was okay, it was definitely a great experience with a very attentive staff. I highly recommend having your wedding or event here!

Mount Vernon Canyon Club is the most amazing venue. We had the best experience from the moment we walked in. It feels like a mountain lodge when you walk inside and it had the most beautiful views! It’s only 20-25 minutes from Denver which was perfect. Barbara Aguilar was the point of contact we worked with and she is absolutely fantastic! She was lovely to work with and gave us the tour of the venue and a folder with the breakdown of the packages, recommended vendors and was very responsive. She made the entire process was easy and smooth and between her and my day of coordinator I was truly relaxed and not worried about a thing! And throughout the year, and especially month of the wedding when we were updating guest count, table arrangements, food orders, coordinating with our vendors - she was a rockstar! The venue itself is gorgeous and the views you get are incredible - pictures don’t do it justice! We had our ceremony on the main deck and cocktail hour was indoor/outdoor. We were married on Sunday of Labor Day weekend and because the club is closed that day we also got to have the fireside lounge space which was an amazing bonus! While I know some people have an arch and flowers as ceremony decor, we opted to not have any because the views were stunning on their own. So if you want to save some money on decor, it’s an area of opportunity! The bridal party got ready in the board room and it has a deck with great views and great natural Lighting. You can also order breakfast/lunch, coffee/drinks/champagne to enjoy while getting ready. The food was also incredible. We had so much fun at the group tasting they organized and we received so many comments about how delicious it all was. Barbara made sure to have some of the appetizers we selected at our seats for dinner because we definitely were too busy and didn’t get them during cocktail hour! It was so thoughtful. We absolutely loved our experience with MVCC and highly recommend the venue, staff and service! We wish we could relive our day all over again.

My husband and I initially choose Mt Vernon for theri spectacular view, but unfortunately it rained ALL day the day of our wedding. Nicole let me wait up until the last possible minute to decide if we wanted to move everything inside and in the end, we choose to do so, but she didn't even bat an eye! She was totally prepared for either scenario which put my mind at ease. The food was amazing and our guests told us that it was probably some of the best they've ever had at a wedding. Nicole personally too the time to make up a plate for my husband and I, and if she hadn't done that, we probably wouldn't have eaten. The cake was delicious, but the design was VERY disappointing and looked nothing like what we asked for All in all, I would definitely Mt Vernon as a top wedding venue in Colorado

We had truly the best experience we could have asked for working with Mount Vernon Canyon Club. We had looked at a few other venues but as soon as we saw the views and the property at MVCC we knew it was the one. From our first visit through the end of our wedding Nicole was so wonderful to work with. She was accommodating in letting us come see the venue a couple of times, making sure we had a tasting when we couldn't attend the group one, and answering any questions we had in our almost two year engagement extremely quickly. On the day of the wedding everything ran smoothly, the food was great, and our dream wedding truly came to life due to the team at MVCC. I would highly recommend to anyone looking to have the feel of a mountain wedding super close to Denver.

We had our dream wedding at Mount Vernon Canyon Club on 10/1/22! The venue is beautiful, has stunning views, great food, amazing staff and working with Barbara was an incredible experience from start to finish. She was always available to answer any questions that we had throughout the planning process and was beyond accommodating with any changes that we requested. As for our big day, Barbara was immensely helpful in keeping us on schedule and making sure everything ran as smoothly as possible. We received so many compliments from our guests about how beautiful the venue was, how the food was the best wedding food they ever had and how overall smooth and fun the entire event was. Our wedding day truly as a dream and everything we could’ve asked for and more! We can’t recommend Mount Vernon Canyon Club enough for a wedding venue! We can’t wait to return next year for our anniversary cake :)

The venue is beautiful and easy to get to from the city. From the very beginning of organizing our wedding to after the event MVCC has seemingly cared about my event by reaching out and addressing any questions. They worked well with all the vendors I brought in to compliment what MVCC offered. We had a few special requests that were longtime family traditions that were welcomed. On the day of the wedding, our event coordinator was in constant communication. I never had the feeling she wasn't aware of what needed to be done. Guests stated the venue was beautiful and some of the best food they've ever had at a wedding.

We got married here on September 4, 2022. Nicole was absolutely amazing and helpful from the start of planning our wedding! She made everything go seamlessly and we couldn’t have asked for a better day or location for our wedding. The venue itself is absolutely stunning and the staff at the club were all wonderful, the food was incredible, and the Canyon room was perfect for our 75 guests. We had so many compliments on everything from our guests! Thank you for making our day so special!

We got married at Mount Vernon on 8/13/2022 and had a PERFECT day! We've worked with Nicole from day one and she has been absolutely amazing when it came to all of the questions, last minute changes, day of execution, and ensuring the entire thing happened without any issues. The venue is absolutely gorgeous - I highly suggest going to see it, photos do not do it justice. We had about 130 guests, all from out of state, say it was the most beautiful venue they've ever been to. The food was amazing and the portions were huge. We had the plated pan seared chicken and braised short rib, it all came out on time and hot! The service and staff were top notch and extremely professional - always checking in with guests, filling waters, serving champagne, and ensuring there was no / minimal line at the bar all night. I could not suggest Mount Vernon enough! It was a perfect day and we had so much fun!

We loved our wedding at Mt. Vernon Canyon Club! We rented out both upstairs and downstairs. I loved being able to get ready in the upstairs board room. Nicole is great to work with and is there to help you with everything you need. We also used A Touch of Bliss for Day of Coordinator and having Nicole and the Day of Coordinator was amazing! The view, food, and communication with MVCC is everything you can ask for! Highly recommend!

We had our wedding here in June 2022 and we have no regrets about our decision. Barbara was great to work with for all the planning. She was flexible with many of our requests. 90% of our wedding guests were from other states and they loved the view from the outdoor deck. The staff were polite, and the food and drinks were good. Great choice for a wedding spot: mountain views and not to far out of reach from the Denver metro.

My husband and I are so happy with our decision to get married at MVCC. We knew we wanted a venue that felt like it was in the mountains, but we also wanted it to be easily accessible to our guests coming from out of town, and MVCC fit that perfectly. From the time we inquired about the venue through the end of our wedding day, we felt that we were in great hands, despite planning our wedding from another state. We were very pleased with the inclusive package deals and large menu of choices for food, cake/desserts, and alcohol. The chef was also accommodating for dietary restrictions. There were only a few additional vendors (DJ, florist, photographer) we had to book because MVCC provides so much of what you need! We were able to reserve an additional room in the venue for getting ready, which had wonderful natural lighting for hair and makeup and a beautiful balcony for pictures. We worked with Barbara as our coordinator, and she was always helpful, professional, and warm. She was readily available for questions that came up throughout the planning process. She also did an amazing job running the show during our rehearsal and on our wedding day, which took a lot of stress off us. The staff on the day of our wedding were frequently checking in to ask if we needed anything and making sure we ate and drank throughout the night. Our guests have all been raving about how beautiful the views were, how good the food was, and how much fun they had. We had about 110 guests and were in the Mountain View room with the connecting patio. Our guests loved being able to use the patio throughout the night. We still can't believe how smoothly and perfectly our wedding day went, and the team at MVCC is largely to thank for that!

I had the best experience! My wedding was so much fun and everything went smoothly. Nicole, the Director, was beyond impressive. I can not say enough positive things about my experience. We were in the Canyon Room with about 90 guests, the space was perfect. We were married on the deck and had the reception just inside. What was really nice is when dancing and you need a brake you have the deck to cool off on. The views are to die for, the service was impeccable, and the food was amazing (I had so many guests rave about it), we did a mac & cheese bar which was a huge hit! From the day we booked the space it was easy planning. I knew I was in good hands and worried about nothing.

My husband and I got married at Mount Vernon in February and loved every minute of our special day there. We worked with Barbara and team on our unique, winter off season wedding and they absolutely nailed every detail! We used the Canyon Room and deck since our wedding only had about 40 guests but the space itself is vert tasteful and the view is absolutely stunning! It is the perfect location for a Mountain wedding with the convenience of being close to Downtown Golden. Barbara was so thoughtful throughout the entire planning process and did everything she could to make our day seamless and special! The food was amazing, fresh and beautifully plated. The bar was on point (great drinks were a huge focus for us)! And our day from the beginning of getting ready all the way to last call was smooth thanks to Barbara and team's hard work. Friends and family had such a wonderful time, they couldn't stop mentioning it for weeks. Pick Mount Vernon as your wedding venue and it will not disappoint!!

MVCC was AMAZING!! They took care of every detail! I didn't worry about anything for our reception and they exceeded every expectation we had. The food was amazing, the service was 5 star and our cake was absolutely beautiful. We will be going back for many more family celebrations in the future!!

We stumbled upon Mount Vernon after looking to do a mountain destination wedding. Plenty of nerves trying to coordinate this from out of town and we had struck out at some other venues because of date conflicts and cost. As soon as we saw the first picture, our interests peaked. Looking at the prices we were starting to feel hopeful, and after speaking with Nicole we were convinced this was the venue for our wedding. She made us feel so comfortable through the planning process and was prompt and clear with her communications. Things changed with the initial planning, as they do with weddings, and she took everything in stride. Their whole staff was very nice and prompt, Angel the bartender was a huge hit with our guests, and Nicole could be seen running around in the background making sure everything went off seamlessly. They are all genuinely nice people in my experience. The food has to be mentioned because our guests are still talking about the pork chop and chicken. All of the appetizers were delicious and the late-night sliders are so worth it! We also went with their recommended photographer and DJ. We haven't seen the photos yet, but based on our initial interaction and sneak peek, they look to be a home run. Overall, Nicole and the program they run at Mount Vernon made it very straightforward, easy to consume and plan, and the actual wedding day went flawlessly. We even had a black bear show up to see what the party was about! Don't worry, you are a safe distance away from the wildlife. The venue is also beautiful. It certainly shows its age in some areas of the club, but it just adds to the character of the place. Even the drive up through the mountains adds an exciting feel to it. We rented the room with the large deck you see in the photos and, weather permitting, it's the route I'd recommend. Great access to photos, people loved being able to be out in the mountain air, and it made the whole area feel much larger than just the dining area. If there was one knock on the layout, it's that the Bride's room is a little small if you plan on having hair or makeup done. Not a problem for smaller weddings/wedding parties, but we did end up renting one of the conference rooms for a nominal fee for the day. If you are looking for some extra privacy or room, definitely ask about what other rooms are available for rent the day of. We were very happy we did this on the wedding day! We can't recommend Nicole and Mount Vernon enough to people. If you're looking for a place with beautiful views, a unique venue, great food, and a capable staff then look no further. Our wedding day was perfect.

Nicole and her team at Mount Vernon Canyon Club did a fantastic job with our wedding! We really feel we got a ton of value for the price we paid. Our wedding went better than expected. We'd very highly recommend this venue!

We found Mount Vernon to be an excellent venue for a wedding and reception. The facilities and location are lovely, the food superb and the communication and coordination exceptional. Nicole is a skillful, experienced and responsive Event Director and the catering team is comprised of helpful professionals. It was a pleasure to hold a very special event there.

We are so fortunate we were able to host our wedding at Mount Vernon in September 2021. We had originally planned for a June 2020 wedding and Nicole worked tirelessly with us to get a new date planned when the pandemic was in full-force. My husband and I do not live in Colorado and throughout the planning process, Nicole was prompt to respond to any and all questions we had. It made planning from a distance much less of a burden than I expected it to be. She also provided exceptional vendor requests for various inquiries I had regarding hair stylists in the area, shuttles, etc. We ended up having our ceremony on the Lower deck and our reception in the Canyon room. Our guests were awed by the incredible mountain views and we were so impressed with the hospitality of Nicole and the wait staff. I was really touched that the wait staff obliged with our requests to wear masks. That meant a lot for the comfort and safety of our guests. Also, when the shuttles were running behind, one of the wait staff politely came to the bridal suite to ask if I wanted to push the ceremony back a bit. I appreciated her coming to me and her comforting nature. Lastly, the wait staff were very on it with filling drinks, waters, and clearing plates. The food received rave reviews. We had oven roasted chicken, salmon, and vegetarian risotto as entree options. They took note of the guests with allergies and we heard nothing but positive affirmations of how delicious the food was. We truly cannot recommend Mount Vernon enough for your special day. It is by far one of the more affordable venues we looked at and the views were unbeatable. We thank Nicole and Mount Vernon for giving us the wedding of our dreams! EDIT: I wanted to add that the pictures our photographer took below the deck in the grassy area were out of a magazine. You cannot beat the picture locations available at this venue!

We hosted our wedding and reception at Mount Vernon Canyon Club, and everything was perfect! First, I want to start by saying that Nicole was amazing to work with. Our wedding was delayed 1 year due to covid, they were so flexible, and Nicole answered all of our questions over the 2 years of planning. She was so incredibly helpful. The venue itself is beautiful, most of our guests were from out of state, and people raved about the views. The food was incredible, we had so many compliments on that as well. We definitely recommend Mount Vernon, they helped us have our dream wedding!

I worked with Shannon and couldn’t be happier with our final outcome and execution of details. Shannon was easy to work with and extremely flexible with planning all details and preferences. She is experienced and it showed! Everything went according to schedule with not one thing to complain about. We used the canyon room, it was beautiful and the perfect amount of space for our 70 person wedding. The bar was on point and everyone was blown away. Thanks for the best day ever!

We are so incredibly thankful we found Mount Vernon Canyon Club. From our initial conversation with Nicole, we knew the venue had our best interest at heart. Every time we had a question, they were responsive and timely. They were flexible and willing to work with our budget. We had a few things go wrong with our other vendors, but the venue completely over shadowed that in the best way possible. Shannon had been working with us closely up until and the day of the wedding. She was amazing to work with. She was attentive to our needs and made sure the event went as planned. The staff at Mount Vernon was so kind and continued to check on us throughout the night to make sure we had everything we needed. We would choose this venue over and over again. We had the most magical night and the venue was stunning. The only feedback we had was during our ceremony. There are two places to hold ceremonies and receptions at Mount Vernon. The reception below had started when our ceremony was taking place. You could hear the guests music on the other floor during the ceremony. However this was a minimal issue compared to how wonderful everything else was. Thank you!!

I could not have asked for a better place to get married. The scenery is enough where you don't need to worry too much about decorations and the venue is easy for everyone to access. When our guests call to reminisce about our day, the two things that are always mentioned is how delicious the food was and how hard-working Shannon was all night! Shannon has worked with us for over 2 years, making our Covid-postponement as easy as possible and being responsive to each question and email throughout the entire time. She was very detailed oriented during the rehearsal and kept our large family in line and prepared for the big day. Shannon went above and beyond the day of the wedding. She was setting up chairs for the ceremony, checking on me and my bridesmaids in the suite to make sure we had everything we needed, and she even helped set up the decorations - providing suggestions to make everything look even better than I could ever imagine. Considering it was my wedding day, my level of stress was as low as it could have been because I knew she was there to take care of everything and she would get it done! Shannon is truly the reason why everything went perfect on our wedding day and she will always hold a special spot in our memories when we look back on the day and how amazing everything was.

Wow, working with Nicole was so seamless. We planned our Colorado wedding from Wisconsin, at first I was a little nervous how smoothly things would fall together but working with Nicole made all my worries disappear. She worked through all the ins and outs with us, agreed to meet when we happen to be in town, and overall kept communication a priority. Our wedding was an absolute dream. Both my husband and I have celiac disease as well as issues with nuts, when we discussed this with Nicole she assured us she could provide safe meals for us and all our guests. The food was OUTSTANDING. Everything was safely gluten and nut free and absolutely delicious. Our guests are still telling us how great it was over a month later. I simply can not say enough good things about Nicole and Mount Vernon Canyon Club. The view is extraordinary of course, the service was over the top, and our day was perfect. Thank you, thank you, thank you!! 10/10 would recommend to everyone.

We had our ceremony & reception at Mount Vernon Canyon Club on July 25, 2021 and loved every minute of it! The planning process was incredibly easy with Nicole's help and everything turned out exactly how I envisioned. We had our ceremony on the MDR Deck and our reception in the Canyon room and received SO many compliments on not only the view, but the food & the service. All of our guests are still talking about what a great time they had. Couldn't recommend MVCC more, thank you for making our day perfect!

We hosted our daughter’s wedding ceremony and reception at Mount Vernon Canyon Club on June 12th, 2021 and it was amazing! Nicole and her team did a great job of navigating the planning all through the pandemic year leading up to the wedding and we could not have been happier with how it all turned out! The setting and views at Mount Vernon are gorgeous and as guests entered the ceremony deck space we heard so many “Wow!” comments. From the prompt replies to my countless emails and coordination of our vendors by Nicole, great food, drink, and service, to every one of our guests having a wonderful time, it was a fabulous afternoon and night celebration for daughter and son-in-law. Thank you MVCC!

We absolutely loved Mount Vernon - we got married on the deck and had our reception in the Canyon Room. Shannon was a delight to work with, she went far above and beyond what I would have expected - on the night of our wedding our photobooth didn't show up and she went out and bought instant cameras and props so that our photobooth guestbook didn't look awkward. I highly recommend renting the upstairs board room for the girls to get ready in for more space and amazing pre-wedding photos. Our guests were blown away by the views and loved the ability to go out on the deck whenever they needed a dancing breather.

This venue is absolutely perfect! So many of our guests were from out of state and couldn't get over the breathtaking views. I had the pleasure of working with Shannon, she was so responsive to my numerous questions and made the day run so smoothly. It was an absolutely perfect day.

The club made my day absolutely perfect! Shannon made sure to coordinate all the vendors and the bridal party amazingly. The wait staff made sure me and my husband we taken care of even brought us food and drinks so we didn't have to lift a finger. Beautiful venue with beautiful staff to match thank you!

My husband and I had our wedding at Mount Vernon on May 22nd 2021. We are both beyond grateful for everyone at this venue and can’t say enough good things. They’re so easy to work with and really pay attention to details. They made planning and our wedding day super easy for us. Nicole was always available to answer our questions and very pleasant to work with. We are very happy we had our wedding here and can’t wait to go back for anniversary dinners!

I cannot say enough good things about Mount Vernon! I could not imagine getting married anywhere else! Shannon was beyond amazing to work with. You can really tell that she cares about your vision and will do everything in her power to make everything happen! Five stars is not enough for this venue!

You guyyyyssssss - Mount Vernon is amazing. My husband and I kept our guest list at 40 people (this venue can absolutely handle more) - and everything went SO smoothly. Shannon is amazing - she is so lovely to work with. The food was incredible - everyone raved. The cake was beautiful and delish, the staff was SO friendly and SO organized. When I tell you our wedding had the best flow to it - I mean it. Everyone was so impressed with the entire thing. Tour. Book. Honestly Mount Vernon is perfect.
