I truly don’t have enough words to capture just how incredible Mountain Crust Event Venue is — but I’ll try.
From the moment we toured Mountain Crust a year ago, we knew it was spe...cial. We met with Nico, and immediately felt welcomed, supported, and completely at ease. Unlike other venues where we felt judged or out of place, Mountain Crust made us feel like our wedding belonged there. Nico answered every single one of our (many!) questions with patience, humor, and enthusiasm. We left that tour not just laughing, but excited — something no other venue had made us feel.
Over the next year, Nico continued to be an incredible resource, answering every worry or last-minute thought with calm, confident support. Planning with them was a dream.
The Day Before & Day Of:
When we dropped off our wedding items the day before, everything was so smooth and easy. They even had cool storage to keep our fresh flowers looking perfect.
And then the big day arrived.
The LOVE SHACK was the perfect place to get ready — cozy, beautiful, with breathtaking views — and the Mountain Crust team checked in on us regularly. We felt truly cared for, not just logistically but personally. Even though they were working nonstop behind the scenes, they always made time for us.
Nico is a rockstar. She orchestrated everything seamlessly while radiating calm and kindness. When a third-party vendor ran behind, Nico discreetly handled the issue without ever worrying us — even grabbing my phone, asking for my passcode, and handling the situation with a smile. I didn’t find out until much later — because that’s how good she is at what she does.
Food & Staff:
We had several guests with serious gluten and dairy allergies. Mountain Crust staff proactively found them, spoke with them personally, and ensured their meals were safe. And beyond being allergy-aware, the food was amazing. Guests were going back for seconds — even thirds!
But what everyone keeps talking about? The staff.
We’ve received so many compliments about the venue, but the most consistent praise is for the Mountain Crust crew. People kept saying how incredibly kind, accommodating, and joyful everyone was. Honestly, they made the day feel effortless and fun — and we know working weddings is no easy task.
For a year, we daydreamed about how our wedding would turn out — and it ended up being more than we could’ve imagined. Mountain Crust created an environment where love, joy, and community could thrive. Yes, it was our people who made it magical — as Nico told us the next day — but it wouldn’t have been the same without the care, passion, and energy of the Mountain Crust team.
There are plenty of wedding venues in Denver. I’ve been to many. But nothing compares to Mountain Crust — the vibe is unmatched. And beyond that, if we ever need catering in the future, Mountain Crust will be our first call. They bring the same energy wherever they go.
I wish I could bottle the feeling of that night and open it whenever I need a pick-me-up.
Thank you, Nico and the entire Mountain Crust crew — you made our dream wedding not just possible, but unforgettable.
Xo,
D&M (Derick & Molly)
