Spruce Mountain Ranch

Spruce Mountain was the first venue we looked at and it immediately felt like the one. The property was breathtaking in mid-February so I knew it had to be even more stunning in the warmer months when we wanted to get married. We went with the lower ranch which felt like a dreamy, woodsy fairy land and it also felt intimate and flowed nicely for our guests. Something about the natural and cozy vibe of the venue made me feel so relaxed on my wedding day. Aside from the beauty of the venue, Spruce was very easy to work with. I sent our representative Tara tons of emails and questions throughout the year long planning process and she always responded so quickly and was helpful in problem solving. Our property manager Emily was also amazing on the day of. Spruce has a set list of caterers which were all so good it was hard to choose! We went with Occasions. Other vendors were: Indy Pop Photo, Lil Bug Floral, Karis Ranta for wedding planning, Peak Beverage, Diamond Empire Band, Arrow Stagelines, Forever Party Bus, Event Rents, Hipstr photobooth, and Kim J Beauty. All of our vendors had worked at Spruce previously and knew the lay of the land which made everything flow seamlessly on the day. We also rented the Estate House which is offered to Spruce Mountain couples and this was a great experience and so convenient and close by. I can’t imagine our wedding having been anywhere else and will forever relish in the memory of getting married on the most beautiful ranch in Colorado.

A beautiful place where we had our wedding. Everything was perfect with the venue. Glad we chose them.

Absolutely gorgeous venue! You won't find anything this beautiful anywhere near. Everything was absolutely fabulous!!! Spruce Mountain was the perfect dream location for our wedding.

As an out-of-state couple, Tara helped to make the process of booking a venue simple. We booked sight unseen and could not have been happier with the space. The ranch is gorgeous and the vendor list helped us find the perfect fit for the venue and for our vision. Could not recommend enough!

Absolutely worth everything. Our ceremony was at the mountain side and the reception was at Albert’s lodge. We booked 1.5 years in advance to get a June weekend, as It’s a popular place and month. The staff was amazing and we didn’t have to lift a finger! We picked majority of the vendors that they work with, which made everything easier during the planning process. It’s a beautiful venue and we highly recommend it. We had the venue from 1pm to 11pm which is pretty standard. They provide you with a guidebook to help you with timeline, blue prints and everything you could possibly think of. We also enjoyed staying two nights at the estate house which is a mile up the road. It was great for the whole wedding party and some family to spend time together.

We loved this venue, it was beautiful and made our wedding perfect! The Upper Ranch was a great place to hold our ranchy but classy wedding!

We host our Wine & Nosh Couture Bridal Show every year at Spruce Mountain Ranch and can't think of a more perfect venue space. When driving in to the ranch, the grounds are beautiful to both venue locations. The staff is wonderful and willing to help with any set up and coordination of the day. Guests are able to tour the property on this day and see how truly magical it is. I would highly recommend Spruce Mountain Ranch as your wedding/event venue. Their customer service is outstanding and makes you feel like the ranch is yours for the day.

Without question, Spruce Mountain Ranch is on our top list of Colorado Wedding and Event Venues! As a floral and décor company, who has had the pleasure of partnering with Spruce Mountain Ranch on countless events over the past decade, our experience has always been amazing. When working with the venue’s team it is absolutely apparent, they cultivate hospitality at its finest. They truly have a passion to create beautiful, meaningful experiences for its’ clients with a goal in creating “A Day to Remember”! They are committed to exceeding expectations and are dedicated to creating a stress-free, smooth and seamless event, both for their clients and vendors alike. They are professional, friendly and truly a joy to work with. Having worked at many Colorado venues, it goes unnoticed that Spruce Mountain Ranch takes pride in their beautiful property. The facilities and grounds are immaculate and well cared for. It’s a place you never want to leave! It offers stunning backdrops and provides our clients with a mountain destination experience that is intimate, elevated and personal. When entering the gates, one feels a world away from the hustle and bustle, in a setting that exudes a laid-back relaxing, yet elevated experience. We absolutely love Spruce Mountain Ranch! We love their team and we love their property!

I had a New Years Eve wedding and could not recommend Spruce Mountain enough! From the first moment I toured, I knew we had to get married here! The space is gorgeous! The staff was so so helpful and knowledgeable about EVERYTHING. I was able to go back to look at the space as much as I wanted! Spruce Mountain has amazing staff that is helpful right from the start outlining everything to know! From the first day I toured, I could tell that planning my wedding was going to be made so much easier by Spruce Mountain! There are a a few limitations as far as vendors go, but this just made the planning easier! All in all, 10/10 for Spruce Mountain! Special Shout out to Emily who I worked with from my first walk through of the venue to my wedding night - she was the property manager on site!! I was so glad she was able to be there to see my vision come true with so much help from her!!!!

When we first stepped into Albert’s Lodge at Spruce Mountain Ranch, we absolutely fell in love! The venue speaks for itself with a rustic Colorado vibe! They were super easy to work with, and their preferred vendors are incredibly reliable and professional. We loved everything about our special day!

I highly recommend Spruce Mountain Ranch! They are professional and very detailed. Brus was amazing and my duaghters wedding couldn't have been more amazing. The vendors you can choose from are wonderful. I wouldn't have changed a thing!

I love working at Spruce! Coming from a planner, Spruce Mountain Ranch is the place you want to get married!! You get beautiful views, a stunning, clean venue, and it's not far from Denver. The staff at Spruce are amazing and they have trusted vendors on their preferred vendor list. They truly care about each couple, their team, and the vendors that work there.

This is John from the CO wedding/corporate band, HomeSlice. We have been playing weddings for over 20 years and have performed at most of CO’s top wedding venues all over the state. With that said, Spruce Mountain Ranch is our favorite! The staff and the venue are the best! The venue is in a gorgeous setting that is perfect for wedding photos. You get a destination wedding location without driving 3 hours into the mountains. The place is always immaculately clean and has always had everything functioning perfectly. The layout of the property allows both the upper and lower venues to have their own special ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception locations without the two different potential wedding parties on the ranch ever seeing or hearing each other. You get your own massive area to celebrate your day. Both the upper and lower venues are setup to incorporate indoor and outdoor spaces that flow together. If I was planning my daughter’s wedding, I would definitely try to grab the date at Spruce Mountain Ranch. I hope my personal experience playing hundreds of CO weddings can help encourage you to check out Spruce Mountain.

I LOVE SPRUCE! As a wedding planner, I get to work in a lot of places, and Spruce is one of my all time favorites. From a logistical perspective, they have carefully and thoughtfully places guidelines in place in order to execute some of my best events. All of their staff is so kind knowledgeable, and helpful. They feel a like a warm hug to be around and work with. They are so good to all of their couples and have some of the most beautiful property that caters to so many different taste and aesthetics. I've had very elegant brides and very rustic brides that are all so happy with Spruce. Truly a quintessential Colorado Wedding Venue. You will be SO happy if you choose Spruce to be your venue!

Amazingly beautiful venue. Gorgeous views and amenities for you guests. 'Highly recommend!

We love Spruce Mountain Ranch and they have been an amazing family to us. They are always attentive to their clients and their needs and provide an amazing experience for all of their vendors. Multiple options with amazing views and experiences and plenty of amenities to host an amazing event! We love SMR!

We absolutely love working with Spruce Mountain Events! Their team is always so kind, professional, and reliable. Highly recommend!

We LOVED Spruce from the moment we drove onto the property! It is such a pretty venue that has something for everyone. We had a couple communication problems, but overall were pleased with our experience. Ryann was AMAZING and if you get him as your property manager, you are in very good hands. All of our guests thought this was an amazing venue. They have a couple required vendors who were easy to work with and all of their recommended vendors were easy to work with as well. If we had to pick our wedding venue again, we would definitely go with Spruce.

Spruce Mountain Ranch is such a beautiful venue. We were blown away when we saw it, not only by the views, but by the event space as well. We wanted to give our out-of-town guests a Colorado experience, and this venue absolutely delivered. Tara was incredible to work with - so professional and accommodating. If you want a gorgeous Colorado venue, look no further.

Everyone was extremely professional and organized. They know how to throw a classy event.

Spruce Mountain was absolutely amazing from our first venue tour to the end of our wedding night! All of the staff was very kind and responsive to questions throughout our planning process and the venue is just plain gorgeous!! On our wedding day they were so on top of things and at the end of the night my parents were extremely impressed at how thoroughly and carefully they packed up the decor and other items we had brought to the venue that day. I would highly recommend Spruce Mountain to anyone looking for a mountain vibe venue that's easy to get to from Denver or Colorado Springs!

Spruce Mountain was our dream venue and they made our September wedding a dream come true! The staff is amazing and the property is impeccable. Everything went so smooth on our wedding. Everyone gave us so many compliments on how gorgeous it all was. Definitely the best venue out there!!

Wow, wow, wow!! From the moment we toured the property to the last moment of our wedding day, we were blown away by the care and effort given by the Spruce Mountain Ranch team. Not only is the venue absolutely breathtaking, but Tara and the staff are second-to-none! They will make sure you're taken care of and your day is perfect. We were planning on having our ceremony and cocktail hour outdoors, but due to the rain, we made some slight changes to the day. You would never know that was plan B, because the indoor space was gorgeous and the staff made it such a smooth transition. With the rolling foothills, stone fireplaces, and beautiful setting, we couldn't have asked for a better place to get married. If you're looking for a memorable venue, incredible staff, and an overall amazing wedding experience, choose Spruce Mountain Ranch!!! Thanks Tara + team!

Tara and the team was great to work with. The venue was absolutely beautiful! I loved how the team let us tour without them there, it gave us a chance to walk around the venue without any pressure.

From the first meeting with everyone at Spruce Mountain we were very impressed, Beautiful venue everyone that works there are incredible. They made everything so easy for us and that gave us great peace of mind. Emails and contact on dates and how many days to go. All the vendors they recommended was amazing. We looked at other venues and nothing could compare with what Spruce Mountain offers. All our guest loved the venue and continue to tell us what a beautiful venue it was! We highly recommend Spruce Mountain !

One of our favorite venues! From the owners/staff/amazing views/and one of the largest wedding venues in Colorado you can find so many diverse opportunities & unique experiences for any event!

It was so perfect! From the location, to the beautiful space, I could have not imagined getting married anywhere else.

We LOVED Spruce Mountain for every single aspect. The beauty is unparalleled; the staff is responsive and thoughtful; the organization is perfect. We were married at the “Mountainside” ceremony site and had the reception in Alberts Lodge. I think it’s really important to review how they handled my concerns: 1) Accessibility (Grandparent who can’t walk well) - they used their shuttle to bring her right up to the ceremony site and back down 2) weather - it was 50/50 on rain and we rolled the dice, and lost haha. It ended up raining but the staff was amazing and super helpful! Also, they had the inside (Alberts Lodge) fully set up as well - in case we wanted to use it for the backup. It was really beautiful! I have no regrets about being outside - even in the sleet/rain/wind!! The views were worth it. 3) parking/guests being directed to the wrong area - there was also a wedding in the Upper Ranch and we didn’t see or hear a single thing from them. Iit is essentially a separate venue that just happens to also be owned by Spruce. 0 issues here. Overall, I was incredibly happy with Spruce Mountain Ranch as our ceremony and reception venue!!

Spruce Mountain is the most incredible dream wedding venue!! Working with Tara and her team was an excellent, stress-free experience. All our guests continue to compliment us on our venue choice!

If you're looking for a dream mountain wedding without the headache, logistics, and major cost of actual Summit County, look no further than Spruce Mountain Ranch. And actually, it's better than the mountain venues for many reasons. I deeply and thoroughly vetted and visited many venues for our wedding, and Spruce stood out as the best from very early on. Post-wedding, it is hands down the best decision we made for our day. Spruce staff is incredible, so helpful, and the venue is simply one of the most beautiful places in the State. It has everything you need, they have backup plans for their backup plans, the day of staff went above and beyond for us, there were zero issues the entire day that they couldn't fix or solve instantly. I truly cannot say enough about Spruce and how much we loved it. People who came to our wedding just rave about how awesome it was. We chose the Upper Ranch and I could not have been happier with how everything went. If you're torn about where to get married, stop looking and book Spruce Mountain Ranch.

We recently had our wedding at the Upper Ranch at Spruce Mountain Ranch (October 2022) and cannot recommend it enough for your wedding or event. Our experience with Spruce Mountain dates back to late September 2021 when we first reached out to the venue. They were quick to respond and we visited within days. We worked with Brus Osborne as well as a few additional team members - everyone was professional, knowledgeable and made everything feel easy. The Upper Ranch is a one-of-a-kind venue built for weddings. The overall venue is rustic and cozy. The layout is perfect and each space is intentional. We were surprised with some snow so used the Aspen Room for our ceremony which still allowed us mountain views. I loved the statement fireplace for our cocktail hour. The Ponderosa Room is simply breathtaking. They require certain vendors and provide recommendations for other vendors if you ask which I appreciated - there are a million wedding vendors and this narrowed it down. All our vendors were outstanding. The fee was reasonable - especially in comparison with other Denver area venues. I’ve followed Spruce on social media since we booked it for our wedding and I have loved how every wedding is so unique and different, yet Spruce Mountain works with all of them including ours. Cannot recommend enough!!

My husband and I just got married at the Upper Ranch. Oh, what a dream come true! This space was everything we could have wished for and more. The staff was unbelievably welcoming and accommodating throughout the whole planning process. I highly recommend this venue.

This was the most beautiful place for a wedding, and I am so glad we chose it! I confirmed my wedding date with only a virtual venue tour since we lived out of state. I saw the venue in person a few months later and knew it was the perfect place. Seeing the venue on the actual wedding day was even more magical and the Lower Ranch was the perfect size for my guests (90 people). I have gotten nothing but compliments on how beautiful this venue and scenery was, hoping to attend a wedding here soon!

We recently had our wedding at Spruce Mountain Ranch and it was amazing - from start to finish! The ladies were always quick to respond and accommodating, letting us tour the venue whenever we wanted to show our parents, vendors etc. Leading up to the day of they were really organized and flexible with us - which was so appreciated with everything we had going on. It truly is the most STUNNING venue. I think every person at our wedding said at least once it was the most beautiful venue/wedding site they had ever been to or seen. Could not recommend more!

This venue is amazing! The owners keep it very clean and the views are beautiful!! The staff was very communicative and answered any questions we had. I would highly recommend this venue!

Overall, Spruce Mountain is an unbelievable venue. We were so excited to get married there! All of our guests were in love with it and thought it was the most unique venue of them all. It truly just shows Colorado and beautiful this state is. Well worth the money. My only complaint is, they definitely pick and choose who they post on their social media or what they repost. Which is kinda unfortunate as it would help vendors get business, it helps other brides get ideas and it’s such an exciting day for couples and they should support being shown off. Every bride and their hard work deserves to be shared or reposted. Not only certain brides or certain vendors.

The venue was everything we had hoped for although for the price wish more little things were included. A screen and projector to show pictures on, extra ceiling lights. Beautiful venue and they went above and beyond making sure wedding went off well!

Spruce Mountain Ranch was an absolutely amazing and gorgeous venue to get married at. Tara Ames was super helpful and responsive to our questions and emails. Amazingly enough, Spruce Mountain has tables and chairs that are included in the price you pay so you don't have to rent additional tables and chairs that may not fit in your budget. I would highly recommend Spruce Mountain Ranch due to its beauty and the amazing staff.

This venue was absolutely perfect! The upper ranch is stunning and comfortably held all the guests attending our wedding. It has the most perfect Colorado wedding vibes!! The staff was always responsive and there to help with any questions we had. They were so organized and easy to work with. I would recommend this venue to everyone!

Spruce Mountain is beyond beautiful and made for the perfect venue for our wedding! They were so easy to work with and they were so helpful with anything that we needed! Our guests are still talking about how beautiful our wedding was! It was truly the perfect day and I would recommend SM to anyone! We couldn't have loved it more!

This venue is what dreams are made of and the staff is great!

Had a great experience with the staff at spruce mountain who helped us navigate our wedding planning and wedding day even with needing to postpone due to COVID. It’s a beautiful venue and they have a great list of vendors. Really had a perfect day. The only troubles we had was with the hotel block. The Hilton denver Inverness wound up being perfect when all was said and done, but booking was difficult to get the block rate. I’d probably recommend doing transportation on your own and findings guests lodging wherever convenient to avoid the hassle of having to stress over room blocks/packaged transportation at the Hilton denver Inverness.

Spruce Mountain Ranch was a DREAM! We rented out the Upper Ranch/Ponderosa Room and were absolutely obsessed with this venue for our wedding. It is stunning beyond belief and the staff here are spectacular. We couldn't have asked for a better experience or a more beautiful day. Highly recommend. Thank you Spruce Mountain Events!

We couldn't have chosen a better place to get married! Our wedding day was an absolute dream and it's largely because SMR is such a stunning venue. We got so many compliments on it from our guests too. Additionally, Tara was wonderful to work with. She always got back to us quickly and was excellent with communicating. Additionally, all of the staff the day of made sure everything went perfectly. We definitely recommend!

The PERFECT Colorado wedding venue! You truly get it all when booking with Spruce Mountain. Epic Colorado landscape, pristine venue with tons of private space, amazing bridal cottage, and an attentive and professional staff. We got married at the Lower Ranch in September and it was perfect. Out of town guests were blown away with the beauty of the venue and from start to finish working with Tara and her staff was easy and fun. They truly love what they do there and make their couples feel special and taken care of! Best decision ever booking this venue!!!

We loved Spruce Mountain! We liked that Spruce didn't require any specific vendors, aside from Event Rents & Peak Beverage, but offered recommendations if we needed any. I loved their Bridal Cottage with its wonderful "getting ready" room. We loved the cocktail hour area with its gardens and large outdoor fireplace. The reception area was beautiful and opened up to a courtyard for dancing. We appreciated how large the property was, that we had many options for photos and plenty of space for guests. My husband loved the basketball court and lake you could fish in. We wanted a venue with a “mountain” feel but close to Denver. Spruce was a great option but presented one challenge - the venue is in a small town, far from hotels and nowhere near Ubers/taxis. Since many of our guests would be drinking we provided a round trip shuttle from the hotel to the venue (we chose The Hilton Inverness - it was about 45 minute drive from the venue). The venue was close enough to Denver to use Denver vendors, only one company charged us an extra fee for distance. When COVID hit we seriously contemplated canceling our wedding all together. Tara was very quick with communication as well as open and honest about our options. It was a hard year for weddings, we are thankful our venue handled it professionally. We were able to reschedule from Summer 2020 to Fall 2020, giving up our Saturday for a Friday (in order to secure a summer Saturday wedding date we booked this venue 1 year and 7 months in advance). Spruce took COVID very seriously and handled everything professionally while still allowing us enjoy our day. Thank you, Spruce Mountain Ranch!

Spruce Mountain Ranch delivered on every single wish we had for our wedding day. The true beauty of this venue is absolutely remarkable inside and out. Brus was a pleasure to work with from the very beginning and accommodated us in so many ways with the challenges of covid and having to postpone our wedding day. The space was extremely clean and they went above and beyond to make sure our guests felt comfortable during this pandemic. I cannot say enough great things about Spruce Mountain Ranch. This venue will not disappoint! Thank you, thank you, thank you for making our day so special!

Absolutely a picturesque backdrop for our September wedding. Spruce Mountain Ranch (SMR) is a combination (balance) of comfortable and intimate. SMR venue quickly rose to the very top of our list for our wedding ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. If you are serious about a place that accommodates your style and personality, SMR is an excellent venue. We selected the Lower Ranch (Albert’s Lodge, Colorado Room, Ames Patio and Grace’s Chapel) for our wedding and it was immaculate and perfect for our guests. You need to do a little work in finding vendors but it is worth the time and energy to create your special wedding. We are in our 50s and confident in our ability to make selections on caterers/beverages, entertainment, and décor; however, an event coordinator is also required for, at minimum, day-of the event and we are happy that we selected one especially as we were planning our wedding during the initial COVID months. The SMR staff is efficient in responding to emails and provided as much information as possible. We planned for more than a year and everything to include the weather, executed to near perfection. The venue staff was ready and prepared with everything to include setup, sanitation stations, and cleanup. Our guests commented about how stunning the location is and how the staff ensured compliance with COVID requirements while allowing guests to feel safe and healthy throughout the day into the evening. We are grateful to Tara and her staff for the many ways that you made our wedding day the most special event of our lives.

Spruce Mountain Ranch is the most beautiful venue! My husband and I had looked at a few other venues but I can honestly say that when we first drove up to the Spruce Mountain Entrance, I knew this venue was "the one". From the beautifully paved road, gorgeous trees, pond and mountain views, I had a good feeling about it. It's classy, has beautiful mountain views and lovely cocktail hour and reception venues. Brus was wonderful to work with and very responsive informative and accommodating. You can't go wrong with Spruce Mountain Ranch :)

We knew that the venue was absolutely the most important thing when planning a wedding. We knew we wanted an outdoor wedding to enjoy Colorado mountains and scenery, for our mountain theme wedding. We scheduled many tours of other venues, but as soon as we stepped foot on the property, we knew it was the one. Skyler was our tour guide and she was so friendly and helpful in answering all of our questions. This place really has everything together and we really liked that this venue had a lot of things that you don’t need to worry about like chairs and tables (for both ceremony and reception), an area for the caterer to set up, a built in bar, and a dedicated dance floor. We chose to hold our wedding at the lower ranch. We chose the mountainside site for our ceremony. This site is up on the hill and overlooks beautiful scenery with mountains in the background. The cocktail hour was in the Colorado Room, which is an indoor/outdoor area that has a lodge feel with a patio for mingling. Our reception was in the Albert’s Lodge, which is absolutely stunning. This has a mountain lodge/cabin feel and there is wood everywhere, and has a large mantle and fireplace. It is a huge space. The dance floor is adjacent and it is outside, with large garage doors adjoining for a partial indoor/outdoor space for the reception as well. We liked that there was designated spaces for everything, but yet everything flowed. Another reason why we really liked this property is because pictures are super important to us and we knew there would be lots of great opportunities for beautiful pictures. Every single thing about this venue is miles above other venues we toured in terms of beauty and quality. We have had great communication with the venue and every time we have called or emailed Tara, she has responded the same day. Everyone there is completely invested in you and your day, and will do whatever it takes to make that happen. Tara was willing to do whatever it takes to make sure our day was perfect, including things like turning on the fire place even though it was July because we liked it for our theme and ambiance. When we toured the venue, it was hard for us to believe that anyone would have their wedding anywhere else but here! Every single guest we had commented on how this was the prettiest, and nicest venue they have ever been to and made it one of their favorite weddings to attend! Even when we would tell our other vendors that our venue was Spruce Mountain Ranch, they would always tell us that they enjoy working there, that it’s so beautiful, and it’s one of the nicest and highest quality venues they have ever worked with. On the day of, Kyla was our property manager for the day.This venue absolutely made our wedding the most perfect day ever and we can’t thank Skyler, Tara, and Kyla enough for their help leading up to and on the big day. The venue was the highlight of the wedding and we couldn’t be happier with how things turned out. This venue is absolutely perfect in so many ways and has everything we have ever wanted in a venue. To anyone who is looking for a venue that is a mix of indoors and outdoors, with absolutely beautiful scenery, and lots of different spaces to spread out, this venue is for you! I would highly highly highly recommend this venue to any bride of any kind. I can’t say enough good things about this venue and we are so happy that we found this venue and chose it for our big day!

This venue is beautiful, well laid out and a true gem! Every one of our guests said how great everything was and had a great time. Tara was so easy to work with and we appreciated all her help. Highly recommend this venue to all future brides!
