After a summer trip to Telluride my now wife and I decided that’s where we wanted to tie the knot. We wanted an outdoor ceremony, but an indoor reception, and chose the Sheridan Opera House for the reception location which was one of the easiest decisions we made in all of our wedding planning. Many of our friends said it was the best wedding they have ever been to.
The ballroom area was the perfect size for dinner (80-90 guests plus room for catering tables). While that was being cleaned up we went down to the bar area for speeches and cake, and then back up to the ballroom for live music we hired separately (the acoustics were amazing). If your group likes to drink I recommend taking advantage of the upstairs bar too.
The Sheridan Opera House staff—Maggie, Josh, and Ronnie were exceptionally helpful throughout the entire process. They helped us tie everything together during planning and the day of the wedding.
All of our vendors were extremely knowledgeable and familiar with the venue too. We hired Dave Hafer with Mountain Top Catering for dinner, Patty Denny with Telluride Truffle for dessert, Wes and The Great Funktier for live music, Kaycee Joubert an amazing photographer with Real Life Photographs, and wedding coordinator Monique Johnson who brought it all together.
Our Welcome Party celebration combined a traditional Korean Pyebaek ceremony and a dance party with a live Zydeco band. Having the stage, backstage, audience seating and large dance floor accommodated all our needs. Food & beverages were served in the bar. All the staff were accommodating and joined into the spirit of joy & fun. We couldn’t have been happier.
We had a disco party for our reception. The staff at the opera was very good at communicating with me, our planner and our vendors. They allowed us in early to set up. This is a historic opera house and it was so incredibly special to party there all night long. I highly recommend!
