With stunning panoramic views, expansive grand ballrooms, cozy terraces, and mesmerizing windows, you can immerse yourself in the beauty of nature, all while being a convenient distance from downtown Denver and Boulder. Skillfully weaving rustic alpine charm into a tapestry of modern conveniences, The Pines offers an unparalleled event experience that is both comforting and hassle-free.
- Relish in the crisp mountain air surrounded by towering pines and evergreens
- Promise your commitment in a romantic forested garden
- Dance the night away in your choice of two stunning grand halls
- Mingle with your guests on the charming scenic terrace(s)
- Ask us about a full venue buy-out for events of 180 guests!
When it's time to tie the knot, a tranquil walk down to the woods is the perfect prelude. Our two gorgeous ceremony venues, Aspen Wedding Terrace and Evergreen Wedding Terrace, boast enchanting scenery and natural melodies. Aspen is tucked away in a secluded forest clearing with cobblestones, towering trees, red paving stones, and an idyllic dark wood arbor. Evergreen is marked by tan sandstone steps, meadow and forest views, a sandy paved area, a wooden arbor, and bench seating.
Following the ceremony, you and your guests can follow the edge of the forest back up to the main building. Step inside, and you'll be greeted by a charming welcome space that directs you to choose your own adventure toward the two reception spaces, both of equal splendor.
The Upper Level features a spacious floor plan, built-in bar, bright windows, and an inviting terrace. Two adjacent rooms complete the space, ideal for hosting your photo booth, gift table, or extra seating. Receptions are delightful in this space that perfectly blends mountain ambiance with modern conveniences. Enjoy cocktails and fine wine at the bar adorned with a stone overlay and a gorgeous oak-wood top. From every angle, your eye is drawn to the expansive picture windows that frame the gorgeous forested backdrop. Seat up to 180 of your closest friends and family to mingle over shared memories and enjoy our 5-star-rated cuisine. Need a breath of fresh air? Take a moment of serenity on the alfresco terrace showcasing unbelievable sunsets that melt into stunning starry skies as the night falls.
For larger events, the Lower Level reception space is a fantastic option. Take the stairs or the private elevator and immediately be transported into a forest oasis. This spacious, open ballroom easily hosts up to 180 guests and features panoramic picture windows that take your breath away. True to the mountain locale, this space is adorned with rustic touches such as dark wood flooring, a stone fireplace, and grand farm-style doors.

We had an extremely disappointing experience at Wedgewood Weddings at The Pines. Planning from out of state was a nightmare with constant miscommunication and rotating staff, and n...
othing about the “Elite Package” felt elite. On the wedding day, bathrooms were filthy, the food was poor, and staff were unhelpful. The day-of coordinator was rude, argued with us, and even insulted us afterward. The preferred DJ repeatedly mispronounced my name despite being corrected.
If it weren’t for our amazing guests and the bartenders, this wedding would have been a disaster. I would not recommend this venue to anyone.

Being a bridesmaid at a wedding at The Pines was stressful and disappointing. The venue was disorganized, staff were constantly changing, and communication was terrible. Bathrooms ...
were gross, the food was unappetizing, and the coordinator was rude and combative, even insulting the bride and her mom afterward. The DJ, a preferred vendor, mispronounced the bride’s name multiple times.
The only saving grace was the bartenders and the incredible guests. Honestly, I wouldn’t recommend this venue to anyone — it added unnecessary stress to what should have been a joyful day.

s for every little thing. We really appreciated the flexibility because we had our ceremony offsite, so as a result we were able to push back our start time because we wouldn't have overlapping ceremonies with another wedding, so that helped us have the start time we wanted. We loved that The Pines made it easy with their packages to have our florist, DJ, and bakery all included. We decided to do a dessert bar with the bakery, rather than just a big wedding cake, and ALL of the desserts went. We received so many compliments on the service and overall experience from our guests. Jennifer (our event expert) and Claire (the banquet captain) were so attentive and delivered incredible service throughout the night. Also, one of the best parts was that my parents were the designated contacts to take everything home that night. Our event ended officially at 9PM, and my parents left with everything by 9:15PM. The staff packed everything up efficiently and helped load everything in my parents' car. Everything was perfect!

My husband and I got married at the pines this month and it was beautiful. The entire process of planning the wedding was extremely overwhelming for me but when it came down to all...
of the decisions we had to make at the Pines they made it very simple and fun. Hannah was an absolute angel! She made the day go by so smooth, I knew we could count on her when there was a question and they set everything up exactly how I wanted it when I brought the decorations in. Morgan was amazing all night making sure my husband and I were doing good and happy with how everything was going throughout the evening. And our DJ Toby made sure everyone had fun the entire time. If we had to do this process again we would 1000% choose the Pines and choose to use any Wedgwood venue! I would also say that we only saw two venues and after meeting the people at the Pines I was sold!

The Pines was absolutely the right move for us. The location was perfect. It was 10 degrees cooler than in Denver so was perfectly comfortable in the summer. The location was beaut...
iful. The Evergreen terrace felt intimate but grand. The upper reception space was the same. The day of coordinators Morgan and Claire were PHENOMENAL. They worked with all of my DYI/creative touches with a "let's make it work attitude". They took everything so seriously and acted quickly when there was a concern. I did not worry about things happening correctly on my day... let that sink in. The plated meals were pretty darn good for wedding food. We received nothing but compliments.
We brought in mostly our own vendors, which was the right choice for us. The only hiccup was with their affiliated DJ. From the DJ, we would've appreciated a bit better communication before, listening to our limitations and boundaries, and attention to details. The day was still magical overall. And the Pines made that ideal. At the end of the night and our scheduled uber was there we didn't want to leave. Claire handled it. Suddenly the uber was gone, another was coming in 30 minutes and we got those last 30 minutes with our guests.
Overall, would highly recommend the Pines. They are dedicated to making your day special and they will work with you for that to happen.

iful and the food looked AMAZING! We toured with Claire, and she was extremely knowledgeable and kind. She knew the answers to all of my (many) questions and was very clear with the pricing of everything, which was extremely reasonable with everything that was provided in the package. It was very easy to talk through all the different factors and what if's with her. She had some great ideas for things we could do at the reception, and sent a very kind thank you letter after we toured.

I can't say enough wonderful things about the Pines at Genessee Wedgewood for my sister and brother-in-law’s wedding! From the moment we arrived, they made sure everything went sea...
mlessly, attending to every detail with professionalism and warmth. The entire team, especially Morgan, the event captain, went out of their way to ensure the day was perfect and that all of our needs were met. They were kind, courteous, and genuinely caring.
What really stood out to me was their extraordinary customer service. As the night was winding down, I found myself in a panic about the weather conditions, and Morgan stepped in with such compassion, calming me down. To top it off, Morgan had her amazing server sister, Claire, follow me down the mountain to make sure I got home safely. It’s rare to see such dedication, and it truly speaks to how much they care for their guests.
If you want a place that goes above and beyond in every way, I cannot recommend Pines at Genessee Wedgewood enough. They truly make you feel like family, and it shows that they love what they do.

er wedding crashed the one we were guests at. We saw the next bride already lining up before our friend’s ceremony was over. The whole thing was chaotic. We heard other wedding’s music during the speech portion of the night. This venue is fine for the view/location but if you’re paying more than $1000 for the venue it’s not worth it. Genuinely surprised to see it rated so high

u had the option between two ceremony sites and two reception sites (we chose the lower Aspen venue site and the upper floor reception site). Not only was it a beautiful place, all of the staff we worked with were PHENOMENAL!! They took care of everything and consistently checked in with us during the entire wedding planning process. It was so helpful to have them take care of the majority of things while we got to have fun planning all the little details we really wanted. We also got to try food ahead of time to determine what we wanted to have for our wedding day! Wedgewood truly makes the wedding process so much less stressful and we never felt like we were behind or didn't get a say in what we wanted. They listened to our wants and needs so well and throughout the wedding day I never knew if things "went wrong" because they took care of everything. Cannot recommend The Pines and Wedgewood in general enough!!

We attended a wedding and reception here last night and found many aspects frustrating and disappointing. First, upon arriving in the rain around 6 pm, guests were told to wait in their cars rather than being able to be inside the building. When we finally went to the wedding site, there were no staff to assist with seating or — more importantly — to WIPE OFF THE WET BENCHES so people wouldn’t get their formal wear soaked. After the ceremony,
everyone went to the building for cocktails and snacks. Not only was the area too small for the number of guests, but there were only a couple of tiny tables where people could put down their drinks so they could eat. Finally, soon after having dinner in the banquet room, our table and a couple of others were told by staff that our tables would be broken down to make room for the dance floor. When I asked a staff member where we were supposed to eat our dessert, she replied curtly that we could find empty seats at other tables! I don’t know how much money this event cost the families of the bride and groom, but I don’t think their guests got what was paid for.

Thanks very much for your feedback. A couple of the items you mention were done per the re...
quest of the couple that evening out of a desire to have privacy inside the venue prior to their ceremony, and more space for dancing during the reception. We typically aim to dry off ceremony seating about 10 minutes prior to the ceremony to ensure that seats are still dry as guests are seated, but we do apologize for any inconvenience if you were getting seated earlier than this. We appreciate your feedback for the opportunity it gives us to improve, and hope that you were able to enjoy the rest of Kristy and Schyler’s big day. It was a pleasure to celebrate with them!

remely helpful and responsive. We appreciated the multiple planning calls and visits to the venue, as it helped keep us on track and helped us narrow in on our vision with the in-person visits. Our day-of coordinator Ashley was wonderful; she kept everything on-time and running smoothly which allowed us to enjoy our wedding even more. The venue itself is beautiful; we used the Aspen terrace and upper reception site, and were extremely satisfied with both. Decor can even be kept quite minimal thanks to the natural beauty, and the high quality of Wedgewood's facility (tables, chairs, linens, etc.). We were impressed with the food at our buffet, and the drinks packages were reasonable and very customizable. One of the great parts of working with Wedgewood are all the little things they have available and do; from table centerpieces and signage to champagne in the bridal suite, they really aim to make wedding planning easy and make the couple feel taken care of.

al times throughout planning which helped to really envision what the big day would look like and how we could personalize it to us. Liv was our day of coordinator and she was amazing. She took care of everything and allowed us to just focus on enjoying our day with friends and family. Other shoutouts to Claire, Desmond, Ray and the rest of the team. They were amazing and really gracious to the bride/groom and my whole family. They made everything stress free so we could just worry about the special moments, which is what really mattered most to us. The Makery and Juniper and Honey were also amazing, communicative and really helped to bring our vision to life. Would definitely recommend this venue to couples who want to work with experienced and professional vendors that take a lot of stress out of the planning process. We're really grateful to all of them for making our day as fun and wonderful as it was.

The Pines by Wedgewood Weddings hosted our wedding on 8/01/2024. Our day was a dream come true! We wanted a mountain venue, and The Pines was a perfect choice. Both outdoors and in...
doors are absolutely stunning. We loved having an outdoor ceremony in the forest and an indoor/outdoor reception with the patio during August. As for their team - I can't recommend them enough. The entire year of planning and the wedding day were flawless. They thought of details that never would have entered my mind and were absolutely on point with communication. I truly never had to stress over anything and was completely free to party and interact with our guests on our wedding day. Cristen was a fabulous day of coordinator. We were also working with a limited budget, and Cristen and the team were happy to lay out all of our options and help us make it work. Booking our wedding through The Pines at Wedgewood Weddings was worth every penny. I highly recommend this venue and team! We thank you for the perfect wedding!

My husband and I had an amazing experience at The Pines by Wedgewood Weddings! All of the planning and event staff are very inclusive, kind and knowledgeable. Sara Trupiano and Cri...
sten Altice are especially excellent planners and coordinators.
The planning experts make the entire planning process so easy and straightforward. We felt as if they did all of the heavy lifting for us and they were checking in on us frequently to make sure we were doing OK.
The venue itself is stunning. There are two options for beautiful and scenic ceremony spaces and reception areas, or you can rent out the entire place if that's something you're able to do!
The pricing is very reasonable in comparison to other places we had toured. It's also VERY flexible. Wedgewood Weddings allows you to include any outside vendors of your choice, or you can do everything through them and their third party vendors if you so choose! It really feels like there are endless options. What's even better is that you do not have to pay everything all at once! Wedgewood weddings works with you on a payment schedule and most (if not all) of your wedding day decisions are not set in stone until 10 days before wedding day.
The only thing I would advise anyone to do is to ensure that you thoroughly review your final payment details and keep/file ALL receipts and emails. We had caught that they had double charged us for something and once we had pointed that out to them, they were very apologetic and kind, and addressed the issue and corrected it almost immediately.
10/10 would recommend to anyone looking for a wedding venue. It's definitely worth a visit, whether you're looking for something budget friendly, or even something fancy and over the top if that floats your boat!

The Pines by Wedgewood Weddings was the best venue we could have asked for for our wedding! From an incredible smooth sales and planning process, to a wonderfully executed wedding,...
The Pines and their staff had everything we needed to feel we made the best choice in hiring them. The venue itself is gorgeous with pine trees surrounding the venue, string lights outdoors, and the large windows inside that overlook the city lights at night. The food was even better with some of our guests telling us that it "was the best prime rib they've ever had" and "that was the best food I've ever had at any wedding I've been to". Not to mention, the bartending service and DJ they recommend had such fun energy that guests even gave them shoutouts, and we never had to worry about enough people having fun on the dance floor or being low on drinks! Overall, I'd highly recommend this venue to anyone looking to get married in the foothills of Denver, we couldn't have asked for a better experience!!

The Pines is a picture perfect venue. Their all-inclusive packages make the planning process affordable and manageable, and their vegan dinner options were tasty and well-received....
Our banquet captain, Ashley, went above and beyond to make our evening special. She is a real gem! Our bartender, Darrian, was so attentive and absolutely fabulous. We loved every aspect of our time planning with Sara and working with our DJ, Wes. Highly recommended!

We had our wedding at The Pines last weekend and it was a magical experience. We were lucky that it snowed the day before our wedding, which made the ceremony site and surrounding...
area absolutely gorgeous.
The entire planning and day-of-event group was very organized and everything seemed to run perfectly. Wedgewood has fantastic vendors that they partner with/recommend and the location made it very easy for out of town guests to get to. Most people stress about the planning of their weddings and I can't imagine using someone other than Wedgewood. One perk of using them is that you don't have to hire an outside coordinator or planner, which we thought was amazing.
We wanted to give a special shoutout to Cristen (event expert), Sara (event planner), Claire (day-of operations), and Darrian (event bartender) for their service, kindness, attention to detail, and execution.
In hindsight, the only thing my wife said that she would change would be to invest in ambiance lighting for reception room. There are a couple of add-ons that I felt should have just come with the standard package and not with an additional fee, such as the elite chairs, but Wedgewood is more cost-effective than most wedding options so it is hard to complain. One recommendation that I would give would be to go to one of their food-tasting events before your wedding. We almost completely switched our menu for the event and ended up being very satisfied with our selections.
All things considered, our guests had a wonderful time and this is the third wedding with Wedgewood that our family has had, so we recommend them 100%.

When I proposed to my fiancée, I knew that planning the wedding would be a massive task. I have been involved in several weddings before, so I knew how involved it could be. Wedgew...
ood Weddings at the Pines not only has an amazing venue in Colorado but has several other features that made wedding planning a breeze.
The first thing that we saw was the venue. The unique location, right in the mountains outside of Golden, checked off all the aesthetics that we wanted – surrounded by nature and pine trees, an experience of the Rockies (and of course a ride that isn’t too far away from civilization). The venue itself is great. We had an opportunity to visit it beforehand and it has a nice floorplan with large windows and a balcony that overlooks nature. We love the Colorado mountain atmosphere, and this place has all of it. The outdoor ceremony location is amazing, so we are bummed we didn’t get to have an outdoor wedding!
The second great thing about Wedgewood was the staff (Sara and Audrey helped us with our wedding). They were extremely responsive and flexible. They were transparent throughout the whole planning process, followed through with anything we asked, and answered all our questions. They made sure to periodically check in and keep track of the whole wedding process. Because they were so experienced, this took a ton of stress off me and my fiancée.
The third great thing about Wedgewood is the flexibility of customization as well as the features included. Looking into other venues, things are often not included in the venue (i.e. food catering, the cake, florals, invitations, drinks, DJ services, officiant, etc.) which means you will have to go find and organize them yourself. The fact that the pricing is competitive with other places, but you have so many of these things included, was more than worth it. They gave us a wedding binder which easily explains all the aspects of the wedding and keeps it organized. In terms of customization, we were able to add or remove specific things that we did or didn’t want. For example, accent lightings are a part of the elite package, but we only had the premium. They allowed us to include these in our wedding despite not having the deluxe package. We were also able to remove a few things as well that we didn’t want. Don’t even get me started with how easy it was coordinating florals, cakes, or the photographer either! I am very grateful that a lot of the nitty gritty was taken care of so we could focus on other aspects of the wedding without stress.
I’m writing this a few months before my wedding and the process up until now has been smooth and enjoyable. I cannot wait until we actually get married at Wedgewood at the Pines in a few months!

I booked this venue when it was still The Pines at Genesee and not owned by Wedgewood Weddings and Events. The transition between the two happened prior to my wedding and was a bit...
chaotic and confusing at times but everyone helped answer all my questions during the transition. We ended up with Audrey as our coordinator and she was amazing! She was on top of everything from the moment of assignment to day-of. She ran our timeline amazingly and helped so much when we found out that our main photographer didn’t show up and we had a backup coming in later. Her help and guidance on the day was really a stress reliever and everything ran so smoothly. The venue is beautiful, and I am so glad we chose to have my wedding here. The food was also absolutely amazing! We had breakfast and people are still raving about the waffles!

We got married at The Pines last month and it was everything we could have hoped for. We toured the place last year and knew right away it was the right choice for us. The venue is...
absolutely beautiful. Stephanie, our coordinator, was super transparent and gave us a ton of detail up front about the pricing. She was fantastic through the whole planning process with promptly answering any questions we had. On the day of, she was so professional and made sure things ran perfectly. Seriously couldn't have asked for a better coordinator. I also want to give a a shout out to the other onsite staff on the wedding day - everyone was unbelievably nice and made sure the event went off without a hitch. This place really knows what they're doing.
Full disclosure, we booked the venue prior to the transition in management from The Pines at Genesee to The Pines by Wedgewood Weddings that took place Aug 1, 2023. When we booked, the prior management team did not have a liquor license so our contract stated that we would supply the alcohol. This was actually a huge selling point for us due to money saving. Initially it was hugely disappointing to find out that we'd have to choose a bar package through Wedgewood due to them getting a liquor license because it was going to cost us a lot more. However, I'm rating 5 stars because Connor, the Wedgewood General Manager, was very understanding and worked with us on the pricing. They ended up cutting us a significant deal. I understand this probably won't be the same experience for others going forward, but it says a lot about their integrity as a company!

Our wedding was everything we had hoped for! We selected The Pines for our venue because of how beautiful the venue is. The outdoor ceremony spaces are so pretty that we didn't use...
any decor, and left it as is. We used the upper/Evergreen terrace. The same can be said for the indoor reception spaces, and we used the lower level. We rented the venue's centerpieces which were these beautiful, rustic lanterns with greenery. This made things so much easier vs paying for floral arrangements or doing something ourselves. The rustic look of the space is complimented by newer beautiful wooden tables and chairs that don't need tablecloths. Everyone we worked with at the venue was amazing! Our coordinator Ashley Shade was awesome every single step of the way and made things SO easy for us. When the venue changed ownership from The Pines at Genesee and became The Pines by Wedgewood, both Ashley and the Wedgewood reps contacted us and put our minds at ease. The Wedgewood rep scheduled a Zoom call with us right away and addressed any concerns we had. Everything stayed exactly the same with respect to our wedding, with the added bonus of new ownership obtaining a liquor license, so we would no longer have to provide our own alcohol, which was fantastic. When our coordinator Ashley left the venue about a month prior to our wedding, the new general manager, Connor Swanson took over and coordinated on the day along with Stephanie. They were both amazing on the day of our wedding, so friendly, and took care of every little thing - things I wouldn't have even thought of. Our wedding went off without a hitch and was beautiful. All catering staff were super friendly as well. At the end of the night the venue staff even brought our bags out to our car, packed some of our wedding cake up for us, and even surprised us with a bottle of sparkling wine. I can't say a single negative or constructive thing about the venue and staff. Everything was wonderful, and it made for such a special day for us.

My husband and I had our wedding in early August at The Pines. This venue is a fantastic balance of Rocky Mountain foothills with easy accessibility from Denver (15 minute uber rid...
e from Golden). We selected it for the forested outdoor ceremony space, spacious and modern indoor reception space, location, and relative value. All of these elements were great. Furthermore, we loved Allyson as our coordinator. Downsides, albeit minor, of this venue were the limited food tasting options, food quality, limited options in alcohol through Wedgewood, and some rigidity in the day-of timeline. Overall, we had a beautiful, well-executed wedding and this venue played a big part - we would recommend it to a friend. Note: the Pines changed management on Aug 1, 2023 from The Pines at Genesee to The Pines by Wedgewood Weddings. As a result, our experience was a combination of the two management structures.

airport, but also full filled our needs and wants.
Lauren was our coordinator throughout the process and for the day of our wedding. She was always responsive to our questions and had a great attitude. She was very flexible and communicated well throughout our wedding day. I never felt left in the dark, but also not overwhelmed with too much information. We were thrilled to have her!
We chose the Bistro Buffet and the food was excellent. The staff even made sure we had a plate and time to enjoy the meal.
During the wedding planning, I found out that the venue, the Pines, is also well-known around Golden with lots of our vendors already working frequently with them and speaking highly of the location and staff.
Overall, the Pines made our wedding day perfect and I am so grateful we chose them for our special day!

The close proximity to Denver makes it easy for guests flying in from out of state to travel to the venue while still maintaining a magical mountain/forest vibe. The only downside we experienced was the tight timeline and feeling rushed to set everything up (you can only arrive at the venue 1.5 hrs before the ceremony begins). Thank you to everyone at the Pines who made our day so beautiful and special!

My wife (still getting used to that) and I got married at the Pines at Genesee on June 17, 2023. We held our outdoor ceremony on their upper terrace and our reception was held on t...
he upstairs level of the venue. I was honestly split on which of their 2 outdoor ceremony spots to use and it was a tough call between the upstairs and downstairs reception location. You can't go wrong either way. Even though another wedding took place that overlapped with ours (they started 90 minutes later), I totally forgot anyone but our guests were on the property and we never saw them. We were lucky with exceptionally beautiful weather, but the rest of the day we can thank the staff at the Pines. In the venue price, a Day-of-Coordinator is provided and Lauren did an AMAZING job for us. In the months leading up to our day, she made sure all of the details were locked in place and that we kept on track with our responsibilities. On the day of the wedding, Lauren made it so easy for us by taking care of both the large and small details (down to bringing us our food and knowing what we wanted from the bar so we could spend more time with each other or with guests). Everyone told us how the entire staff was pleasant and on top of the meal service and bar orders. That attention to detail meant that me and my better half simple got to enjoy our day!
Some additional details you may find useful if considering the Pines:
- We opted to add an extra hour to our reception time and that was well worth it as people kept dancing until the end. It was $500 extra for that hour and that was in line or better than most other places.
- the food here is top notch! Even if we did not choose this venue, we were planning to use them as a caterer elsewhere. Don't miss the pistachio bread, random I know, but AMAZING!
- There is not a ton of options for uber/lyft when leaving the venue as the location is a little bit outside the main town. We used a shuttle service with 15 passenger vans and it worked out great since we also had an open bar and then a late night after party in downtown Golden.
- If you are doing a first look, there are some great parks and other locations nearby. We used an area with a bridge over running water, surrounded by a bit of forest at Keys on the Green.
Thank you so much to The Pines and to all the staff and especially to Lauren for helping with our amazing day!

s and facilities speak for themselves, but the staff at The Pines are unbeatable! Vivian was an amazing planner from start to finish, always so helpful and knowledgeable, and the day-of staff was incredibly kind and energetic! They really have the planning process honed in and have an answer for everything. They also have an incredible list of preferred vendors and we had great experiences with everyone we used. This venue strikes a unique balance of offering so many things you may need or want, without forcing you into an all-or-nothing package. We really appreciated some of the ala carte provisions (like glass cylinders for the tables that the florist used). But just look at the ceremony sites and you’ll be sold – so beautiful!!
