We cannot speak highly enough of the Pines at Genesee. Every member of their staff was exceptionally kind and focused on making our day special and they made sure that we didn’t have to worry about the details. The planning process was very easy, we were able to plan everything in one meeting. The day of, everything went smoothly. They interacted with all of our vendors so we didn’t need to worry about any of it. While we were taking pictures, they brought us a tray of appetizers so that we could still enjoy them, and dinner was ready to go when we returned. The food was all incredible and we heard many compliments from our guests! In addition to helping everything run smoothly, they were very willing to work with our alterations to the typical ceremony. We didn’t get a chance to eat much of our dinner so they packed it in a box and sent it home with us. One huge benefit was that we could decide how long the party should go once we started. We were given the chance to add an extra hour during the reception. Before the reception, we didn’t know if people would be wanting to stay so we were guessing we wouldn’t need the extra hour, but we decided that night to use it and it was the right decision.

Initially, the lack of provided alcohol seemed like a potential headache, but we were able to order wine and beer through Applecjacks (recommended by the pines). This made the alcohol super easy and all of it was our favorite wines and beers. This ended up being less expensive and better than the alcohol provided by other venues.

Overall, 100% of our interactions with the individuals at the pines were great, their prices are very affordable, they made the whole night go incredibly smoothly, and their food was amazing. We would highly recommend the Pines at Genesee to any couple looking for a wedding venue.

My fiancé and I were unable to schedule an on-site tour together due to our schedule but Pines we’re super flexible with us and were able to set up a virtual tour for us so that we could still speak with a representative right away, get our questions answered and get our quotes. We did eventually see the venue during an “Open House” and it was amazing! Everyone was so friendly and super helpful through the whole process. One thing led to another and we signed! Can’t wait to start planning! 🤍

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. Wedgewood 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!
