Warren Station Center for the Arts at Keystone Resort

ss our wedding day turned out and we owe it to Warren Station!

ally give 5 stars for our wedding and private events coordinator, Renee. She was beyond helpful in the preparation stages for our wedding venue and experience. Plus the location of the wedding is in the heart of a wonderful and lively ski town that has amazing views. The bridge next to the venue adds character and was fun to take pictures on. My wedding was all indoors and the adjustments that had to be done to flip the space from the ceremony to the rehearsal was a smooth process. The only reason I considered giving 4 stars was due to the experience earlier on when there was a lot of confusion and miscommunication. Those helping me plan the wedding, and paying for it, took charge of the situation and the confusion was ultimately resolved. Once we all communicated matters I think things turned out better.

with our needs, helpful in ensuring our day would go well (with little great reminders in the weeks leading up!) and super helpful in answering questions timely during the planning stages. We are SO grateful for Renee and her team. Wish we could have our wedding day over and over again at Warren Station! The stage was also HUGE and PERFECT for the band and our guests had the best time on the large dancefloor. The stage lighting was beautiful and complimented the decor we brought perfectly. I can't reminder Warren Station for the Arts enough!

ich is hard to find for many mountain weddings. Communicating with their team was easy and pleasant. The leaves were absolutely beautiful during the fall and the location was perfect for our guests to stay in the condos nearby and walk to and from the reception site. We highly recommend!

r. The aspen trees surrounding the ceremony made for such a beautiful setting. Cocktail hour on the patio was wonderful with the fire pits, flowers and creek running in the background. The Warren Station staff was friendly and helpful throughout the night and were continually making sure everything was perfect for us. They were also incredibly accommodating when we delayed our wedding due to COVID. We are so happy we choose Warren Station and it will always hold a special place in our hearts!

s roughly $5700 for a weekend in peak season. On top of it, if you want alcohol served at your wedding you have to in some manner come to a contract/term agreement with them for bar service. If you do the minimum service option like we did as a hosted bar (beer & wine) that will run you around $4500. Grand total= $10,200. Keep in mind, this literally doesn't include anything else (table cloths, catering, DJ, cutesy decorations, cake, photographer, florist, and so forth) and those expenses do add up. All in all I'd estimate we spent roughly $25,000 for an "affordable" wedding venue option. So I'd completely disagree with that statement, and if you do book with this venue, you'll understand why. In terms of the pre-selection of the venue process, one of the things you will be told is that they "work with a ton of vendors in the area" (hotels, caterers, florists, photographers, DJs, and so forth) but yet when you call them most of the responses that you hear are "Who? Where are you getting married? What's the name of the venue?" Translation--they don't really have established connections with many vendors in the area. I actually had to make a ton of phone calls to connect with Summit Cove Lodging, and other local hotels to get my own rates and setup my own wedding discounts for guests. Be warned. The next item I want to focus on is professionalism and customer service to be expected after booking/signing with this venue (and the bar contract of course). Make sure and read all of the fine print, and the day you go to tour, be sure to ask for the most up-to-date wedding information packet. One reason why, we were originally told we could have a "partially hosted" bar at our wedding (essentially agreeing to pay a set amount, and once surpassed, your bar would become a cash bar). When discussing the contract, we were then told that service isn't offered for weddings (and then Renee basically broke down for us that essentially after cocktail hour our bar would become a cash bar). Make sure if you do decide to go with this venue you read all of the fine print, get the most up-to-date information, and ask a lot of questions for clarification. Furthermore, on our scheduled walkthrough 2 weeks prior to our wedding (9/4), Renee double-booked Oktoberfest participation and completely no-showed on us (we also have e-mail information and phone calls supporting this). We waited for well over an hour before deciding to leave. This is just totally unacceptable behavior, and after a strongly worded e-mail they decided to offer us an additional hour of setup time at no extra charge due to the 'No Show.' You're not going with this venue for customer service, you're going with this venue for the ceremony/reception area. My wife and I fell in love with this place, the staff don't really care about your day. To elaborate, they will try to nickel and dime you for every expense related to your wedding day, after you've signed the contract, you're no longer clients you're just simply a paycheck filled with logistics and a nuisance to their day-to-day operations. The venue/reception area is beautiful, and like us you'll have a beautiful day if you ignore the people running and maintaining Warren Station, read the fine print, do your research, decide if it's worth it, that's our advice.

ed bar to cut down wait times, and is conveniently located close to a ton of lodging for guests. We were so happy with our reception and so grateful to the whole team at Warren Station!

uld not be happier with how we were treated by the staff throughout the planning process. Everything from the location to the staff was absolutely wonderful. Though we are disappointed that we are not able to have our wedding at Warren Station, we are grateful for how well the staff has treated us.

Instead, they would put your name on the day that you wanted, and if another wanted to “challenge you,” for the day, they would call you. At this time, you either pay right then or surrender the date. We put our names down for September 12th. Ryane maintained contact with me after this. When I called to put down our deposit, I was informed that our date had been given to another couple. When I reminded Ryane of our agreement and that we never received the challenge call, all she would say was, “I’m sorry.” She said she would talk to her manager and get back with me. She called me back THE NEXT DAY to tell me that again, she was sorry and that all she could do was offer me the 11th or the 13th. I told her this was not possible since our vendors were booked for the 12th. We either had to break contracts with all of our vendors or find another venue that would be willing to work with us on shorter notice. Needless to say, the complete lack of integrity made us not want to work with them at all. If nothing else, it is a life lesson reminder to get everything in writing.

mony site is absolutely beautiful, intimate, and for it being on the resort it felt private. It was awesome to have our friends and family all stay on the resort with us for wedding weekend. The reception site was wonderfully set up. I loved having the ceremony and reception all in one spot. Can't recommend this venue enough!

tone every week during the season, so this place already had a special place in our hearts. Quaking Aspen was the perfect setting for our ceremony! It was beautiful and the seating arrangement was perfect! Everyone could see and hear because it’s designed like an amphitheater! Warren Station itself was perfect! The whole space was ideal for the colder weather! The team behind Warren Station is amazing! Our wedding day was seamless, and Ryane was such a dream to work with! Any and all questions were answered and I was totally put at ease going into our big day! The bartenders were awesome and our guests had such a fun time! 10/10 would recommend every time!

e, this is the place to go!

walk-thru, it seemed that we were a complete inconvenience. Ryane was my coordinator and was so rude and unprofessional. I would email a question, and never get an answer. I also emailed final counts for bar and got accused of not giving a correct count, and was told we WILL take a head count. I was a very low maintenance bride and didn't require much assistance. So I can't imagine someone that needs a little more help with questions and direction planning a wedding. Ryane told me she would help run the ceremony and then said she was too busy at my rehearsal. She was an embarrassment with the way she treated myself and my family on the weekend of such an important day. I was then charged more than $500 extra for my bar. I called to dispute this with Ryane's boss, Danielle. I was actually 4 adults short from the final count I gave her. Danielle told me that Ryane is great and pretty much stated in so many words I needed to keep my issues to myself and she really didn't care. They did fix the bar charges, and mailed me a check to reimburse me. The venue was hot, they assured me they just easily wheeled in fans to cool it off, but come wedding day the fan was broken. All in all, there are many beautiful venues in Colorado, I would steer clear of this one as that is all they have going for them.

upport we had from the staff, both on the day of and in the weeks leading up to the wedding. There was always a quick response to any questions I sent over or ideas I had. We were able to have the fun celebration exactly as we envisioned for our wedding here! If we had to plan it all again, we would absolutely still choose Warren Station Center for the Arts.

lled inquiring about our date and Chris confirmed the open date and sent venue information over to us that day! Thanks Chris! Michelle, the venue coordinator was amazing. I could always count on her to reply in a timely manner and to provide me with the information I needed. I felt so at ease knowing Michelle had the bar and venue handled. Michelle even brought in my favorite rose! On the day of Michelle was one of the first people I saw when we walked into the reception, she was genuinely happy to see us! Michelle and her team were amazing day-of, supportive of my vendors and my family. The bar staff was amazing as well! Handled the cocktail hour rush like pros and knew what to pour me when I came to the bar. If you are considering Warren Station, just say yes. It is in such a convenient location and is priced SO WELL! This place is literally a hidden gem and perfect for a couple who doesn't want to overspend on their venue and not have room in the budget for other vendors. Trust me when I say booking Warren Station will be one of the best wedding decisions you make.

g little thing. I would love to relive my wedding over and over because of this wonderful venue!

as perfect for our wedding size. Michelle and her staff were so helpful and accommodating, it made planning the wedding with them much easier! Michelle responded back to us in a timely manner and also helped us set up last minute tours when we had family in town who wanted to see the venue. I cannot say enough good things about Warren Station, and would highly recommend them!

was gorgeous a warren station was perfect. No complaints at all. If I had to do my wedding over again I would absolutely pick Warren Station again.

as... and we did minimal decorations. It is at Keystone Resort but just enough out of the way of the crowds. We were on a budget and this venue is very reasonable priced. The best part is that they allow you to set up the day prior if there isn't an event! They allow you to bring in your own caterer but you have to use their bar for alcohol. They work with you help fit your budget and needs in regards to the bar. We told them our max budget for open bar which includes tax and tip and anything after that was cash bar. I thought that was really awesome because many places didn't do that. Michelle is super awesome and very helpful the days/months leading up to the big day and on the day of! The rest of the Warren Station staff that worked with us were awesome as well. We highly recommend the Warren Station for a wedding and any event!!

affordable, they were very flexible with us! We had a hailstorm the day of our wedding, and instead of rushing us to choose indoors or outdoors, they let me figure it out and jumped into action to dry everything up (outside was the winner). Everything went well and I could not be more grateful. I would recommend Warren Station to anyone! Chelsea, Michelle and the rest of the team are the best!

eception at Warren Station. It is a perfect setting for a special occasion. There is lodging nearby, so all the guest were able to walk to the event! A great place to have a celebration!

ng the wedding planning process as well as the day of. Not only is the inside of the Warren Station clean and updated, but the landscape is very well maintained. Everything was just perfect- beautiful setting and accommodating venue coordinators. They made our day and night so special and magical! We would do it over and over again, and wouldn't change a thing.

! Chelsea was so helpful, throughout the planning process as well as during our wedding. The bar staff were wonderfully helpful. All of our guests had a great time. I would highly recommend Warren Station and Quaking Aspen for your wedding! But book it early because it fills up fast!! :)

ng of them. Besides the beauty of the surrounding area, the proximity to the River Run Village made this a great choice. This venue is an excellent value and helped create a beautiful wedding for my wife and I.

k to the wedding and reception; Warren Station offered that to us in an absolutely beautiful setting. Chelsea at Warren Station was also great to work with. She was very prompt and professional and made sure our wedding happened exactly the way we wanted it to. I highly recommend Warren Station, Chelsea, and her team.

erful Quaking Aspen Amphitheater and Warren Station were. Carrie and Chelsea were both amazing to work with. Everyone was so helpful and accomodating. I would highly recommend to anyone wanting a little relaxing wedding weekend in an amazing area!

most important day of our lives. There was live music in River Run the day of our wedding, and the coordinate made arrangements for the music to be stopped during our ceremony. The staff at Warren Station was fabulous the day of our wedding as well. Everyone was extremely kind and helpful to us and our wedding guests. In addition to the staff, the venue was beautiful. We were married early September, and there were lots of flowers around the venue. Flowers that Warren Station had planted. We had the perfect wedding day and Warren Station helped make it happen.

ere wonderful from the beginning of the planning process until the end. Lesley answered every single one of our crazy questions within hours of us emailing her, she met with us several times about the logistics of the day of the wedding and offered us a ton of complimentary things that we were expecting to pay for ourselves like piping and draping, day of coordinating, audio and video equipment, tons of extra access to the venue--our wedding was on Sunday and they let us access the venue beginning Friday evening! We can't even begin to express how accommodating Lesley and the staff at Warren Station were. Quaking Aspen Amphitheatre was extremely picturesque--we did our processional over the gorgeous bridge, had the best ceremony on the gorgeous stone stage with the ski slope in the background, had a wonderful cocktail hour out on their patio and had a wonderful reception in the hall. We had the perfect day and the absolute perfect venue. Even going to look at the place the first time took our breath away! All of our guests said this venue was one of the most beautiful places they had ever been to in their lives (my grandpa's only complaint was the altitude...) Side note: In the summer, Keystone Village, which is right next to Warren Station, is nearly deserted. It made for some really beautiful pictures right after the wedding. The gondola is less than five minutes away and gives free rides after 4pm--very romantic. River Run and the condos surrounding Warren Station were gorgeous as well and a less than five minute walk to the station. The bar contract with Warren Station was very simple, the ability to bring whichever caterer we wanted, the ability to decorate the venue, etc., were all awesome awesome awesome additions to the venue contract. You MUST go look at this venue. It is absolutely gorgeous and the staff are so accommodating and honest! It's really truly (in our opinion) the best venue in all of Summit County, possibly in all of Colorado. Definitely the best kept secret in all of Keystone. There was so much around Warren Station, such great customer service with Warren Station, such clear and concise contracts with the venue, such a remote and resort feel to all of Warren Station and Keystone Village

fect combination of scenic/outdoor ceremony but we were able to have a 'ballroom' style reception. It's a great alternative for those who want a mountain wedding but don't want to force their guests to go up the hill in the gondola, don't want them to walk in dirt, or don't want to pay the higher resort prices.
