Purgatory Resort

fall which meant all of the planning happened during their busiest time of the year for other weddings. Even with the short notice, Purgatory was able to accommodate us for site tours and food tastings. The team is so thorough on all aspects of coordinating between vendors and guests. I didn't have to stress about any logistics on the wedding day thanks to their preparation, and was able to just enjoy the big day. We got married at Boyce and it was the perfect mountain dream wedding site. It rained on our wedding day so the team quickly accommodated last minute changes without having to involve me. The reception was at Purgys and we had so many guests compliment the food! Even the vegetarian dish was excellent. The team thought of all pieces to have in place to make sure we had a perfect day. Thank you for everything!

he purgatory team was very flexible with everything and helped us figure out the logistics of a completely outside ceremony and reception. The food was delicious for both our welcome dinner and reception! Thank you for helping us celebrate during this strange time!

. She was the other me on my day. She was always a step ahead of me and took care of whatever my guests and I needed. The resort on the other hand didnt. A lot of my guests were very unhappy with their rooms. They didnt get what they paid for and the resort was not up front about a lot. The food that was served at my reception was awful. The steaks were still mooing and some of the chicken was undercooked as well. Considering I brought the resort so much business the weekend of my wedding ( because most of my 100 guests stayed at the resort) I was hoping I could maybe get my room free or at a heavy discount but was not so lucky. We stayed at the resort for four nights and I spent around 800 dollars just on out room. I wish I could give a better review but just trying to be honest.

g weekend. My fiancée and I planned our entire wedding from Miami, we had never seen the venue or Durango itself, we relied heavily on the pictures online and just by trusting our wonderful sales coordinators. Between Shea and Stefanie, they answered my every question and ensured that I was a happy bride! When we arrived in Durango, we instantly fell in love with the amount of mountains and the beauty of the little town, the ski resort is gorgeous and has the most beautiful views I have ever seen. On Friday, Stefanie was kind enough to take us up to Dante’s and show us the venue, she helped us set up, answered every question and assisted during the rehearsal. When the wedding day came she helped with transportation and made sure my fiancée and I felt like royalty. She helped pin up my dress, brought us drinks, made sure we ate before the buffet line opened, she did such an amazing job I have raved to absolutely everyone I know about the beauty of this town, the resort and especially the beautiful people that helped make this destination mountain wedding dream come true. Every detail of our wedding was flawless, thank you ladies for your never ending kindness and your patience it is greatly appreciated and you made two people very happy.

oyce ceremony site was really beautiful with the aspens and the mountain range in the background. Purgy's is a great place for a reception, and we had so many people compliment the food and say it was the best steak ever!

espite complications with the venue because of a forest fire. I would highly recommend this location especially because of their incredible wedding coordinator.

here were a few bumps in the road (otherwise I would have rated this a 5) that made me think our size of wedding was something they hadn't handled before, but after I expressed all my concerns with Karlee, she made sure all the issues were addressed and resolved. The organization was key because all of our guests had to be shuttled back and forth between the ceremony and reception, and it went smooth, despite me concerns it might not. We are big foodies and wanted to make sure the food was prepared and ready in a timely manner and we were not disappointed. It was so delicious! We had our ceremony at Boyce, which is gorgeous and our reception in the festival tent. Some advice to couples in the tent: Make sure you invest in lighting! To add to our perfect weekend we stayed at the Cantilever Cabin, which was the perfect setting for our rehearsal, and weekend entertaining for our guests. Thank you Purgatory for making our wedding perfect!!!

and unfilled promises. The food was great and our compt room was really nice.

tor there. She is SO overworked and needs an assistant. The food at our reception was delicious, but the community center where we held the reception was only so-so. You're not allowed to hang anything from the ceiling, put anything on the walls, etc there. I would recommend renting the large, outdoor tent for plans of that sort.
