Hannah & Andy
Colorado in the summer is beautiful, and there are so many options if you'd like to spend some extra time here. We have a few suggestions below, located near the wedding venue in Golden or in Denver. Driving on I-70 West out of Golden will take you up to the mountains, with tons of hiking and cute towns to explore. Please feel free to reach out to Hannah or Andy if you'd like any additional recommendations.

Golden is also known as the home of Coors Brewery.
