What can I say? If you’re getting married in the Boulder area, Shupe Homestead is the place to do it. Jim Bynum is a delight to work with and takes the stress out of all the detail...
s of planning. Plus he managed our day so well, with his incredible team, that my husband and I were just along for the ride. As a bonus it is an absolutely gorgeous venue. We could not recommend them highly enough. 10,000/10

The most amazing wedding venue! Darla, Jim, and his team were absolutely incredible. The venue was gorgeous and exactly what we were looking for. We knew right away it was perfect ...
for us. The front range view, the beautiful landscaping, and the indoor rustic reception site were marvelous. From all of the wedding details, we probably received the most compliments on how gorgeous our venue was, so you cannot go wrong. It helped so much to have so many elements included and taken care of- coordinator, tables and chairs, table cloths, napkins, bartender, servers, the arch, and many of the decorations. I didn't even feel the need to have a florist included in the day because of the landscaping and natural elements that were already part of Shupe. That helped a ton! We loved the feeling of being doted on and feeling so special and taken care of. A DEEP heart felt thank you to Shupe and the At Your Service Event Management Team. You make dreams come true!!

Shupe is a truly beautiful and special venue. Our guests kept commenting on how stunning the grounds and views are. The venue includes furniture for ceremony, cocktail hour (includ...
ing cute couch below Love sign & corn hole on lawn), and reception. The table setting (table clothes, china, vases, etc.) for the reception were really nice. Darla was great at running rehearsal & ceremony. Jim is responsive the days leading up the wedding and proactively checked in/kept everything on track day of the wedding. All of the staff was nice and professional. We couldn't be happier with how everything turned out. Shupe is a hidden gem and wonderful place to get married.

If you're thinking of booking Shupe for any event, do it now. Shupe Homestead is everything my husband and I DREAMED of. They were professional, punctual, kind, and Jim, the event ...
planner, was INCREDIBLE. I planned my wedding working three jobs in a different state, while my husband worked several jobs. Jim made sure we didn't miss a single thing, and he and his staff made the evening the wedding of my dreams. The weather was crummy, but Jim had a plan for everything. The service was unparalleled- they even ran out to purchase something our caterer forgot! Shupe was the only place we found that didn't nickel and dime us for everything or require us to use all their vendors. I could sing the praises of Shupe all day long, but I will stick with this review.

the day before or earlier in the day. My bridal party was running around trying to get everything set up and it went into our picture time which was really unfortunate. I didn't get all of the bridal party pictures that I wanted. Other than that, it was amazing! Highly recommend!!!

to die for and so is everything else they have on their homestead. This place has ample photo opportunities, which is one reason why I picked it. The staff you get to work with there is absolutely amazing too, especially Jim. Jim makes you feel like your day is above and beyond your special day and he makes sure it is 100% how you want it. He rocks at his job!! I could not imagine my wedding day to be anywhere but at the lovely Shupe Homestead which will forever have a special place in my heart. ❤️

ly with our wedding planner. The best advice I got when picking a venue was to find a space that you didn't have to change very much to make it was you envisioned. That is exactly what we got at Shupe. The grounds are so beautiful, our guests loved the mountain views and the reception space was perfect for our 80 guests. We had the most unforgettable wedding day and would choose Shupe 100 times over again. Thank you Darla and Jim!

g our day perfect! With Shupe, we had an initial meeting about our wedding, reviewing ideal timeline and our vision for the wedding. We also had a final walk through in which we were able to make sure all the final details were secured. They are so well prepared that during our rehearsal, they told our groomsmen where to place their hands during the ceremony. Our wedding day was beautiful and we got so many compliments about how smooth the day went and the location, but all of that credit goes to Shupe Homestead!

Shupe Homestead brings with it a fully vetted list of vendors with proven success and delivery of food, beverages, entertainment, and more. The icing on the cake is the team from At Your Service, Event Management, who is the primary event partner for Shupe Homestead. Their orchestration of so many moving parts for a wedding is flawless. I couldn’t have been more impressed with the vendors recommended by Shupe Homestead. I literally had no glitches or stress on my wedding day. Professional and trustworthy for weddings or any event.

I cannot say enough good things about my experience working with Darla and Jim. The venue is absolutely beautiful! The landscape and views are stunning and it has a warm, inviting ...
feel.
Darla and Jim were with us every step of the way. We had plenty of help planning and got lots of guidance and suggestions when we asked for it. It felt like everyone was just as invested in our wedding as we were. On top of that, all of the rentals are included in the venue price and there were extra decorations we were able to use (for example, a card box and sign).
Jim has an amazing ability to talk you through the stressful moments and was super communicative leading up to the big day.
On the day of, we were wed, fed, hydrated, and happy. People just appeared with food and drinks without us having to ask for it. Even though things were shifting constantly, I did not feel any stress and it seemed like any "problem" that arose was an easy fix. Our day was truly perfect, everything we dreamed of, because of Darla and Jim.

We even had a sudden rain disruption on our day and they flipped our reception space into the ceremony while all the guests were there and no one had to lift a finger and they were flawless! Highly recommend this beautiful venue space!

It truly is a beautiful beautiful place!

ade our wedding truly memorable. From start to finish it was perfect and we couldn't have asked for a better site, team, or planner for our wedding. Shupe Homestead takes care of nearly everything for you so that all you need to worry about is saying "I DO!" and celebrating afterwards.
Darla generously opens her home up to provide a personal place for the bride to get ready and stay out of the groom's site prior to the ceremony. She takes pride in her property and organizing the ceremony so that it is flawless! She truly is gracious and welcoming in hosting your wedding.
Jim is a lifesaver! As wedding planners go, you couldn't find someone better. He helps you plan the details from start to finish and then delivers! It was fantastic to be able to sit back the week prior to the wedding and trust that Jim had everything under control. The day of the wedding was even better than promised thanks to Jim. He handled the staff, details, and any issues that arose with ease and made it so we had the PERFECT day. Unbelievably talented planner!
Shupe Homestead is a gorgeous place that treats you like family. If you need a ceremony and reception site that is hassle free and feels like home, this is it! They did an phenomenal job for us and we couldn't be happier. I would rate them as the best one site (ceremony and reception) option in Colorado for your wedding!!!!

t of the best. My husband and I were looking for a wedding venue that not only provided a great experience for our guests, but also represented us and everything we wanted out of a wedding venue. Shupe was able to provide just that. We loved the size of the property and everything that was provided on-site - tables & chairs, linens, and planning coordination and event service staff (including bartenders). Darla and her staff went above-and-beyond day-of to make sure our event went above and beyond our expectations. When the day was colder than expected, the entire At Your Service event staff got to work making apple cider for our guests, and making sure everyone knew where our blankets were located. The decorations were placed perfectly, and guests were never left wondering where they should go or what they should do next. The event timeline went off without a snag, and our wedding day was literally perfect. Thank you SO much from the bottom of our hearts for literally making our wedding the best day ever!

Darla ,the owner, was wonderful! She was very accommodating and the property was beautiful. I would highly recommended this venue for your ceremony and reception. It has a country ...
feel with fantastic mountain views. Minimal additional flowers and decor is needed since the venue is naturally set up with flowers and country decor. You can also bring in your own food and alcohol which cuts down on the price since most venues require you to purchase from them. This venue was worth every penny and an affordable price ( I would even say great price for what is included including the scenery). Our guests have complimented how beautiful the venue was and that they have never heard of this place before. Hidden treasure :)
