We held our wedding in June on the Chautauqua Green and had our reception in the Dining Hall. Heather, Colin, and the whole team took incredible care of us from our first conversation, through the tasting, to the day itself. We love this venue-the history, the cozy atmosphere, the incredible food, the proximity to nature, the excellent staff, and the remarkable value. We can't recommend it enough.

The team coordinated chair rental and setup, handled all of the space setup on the day, took amazing care of our guests, and provided a truly memorable experience. Our guests have been making a point to tell us how good the food was and how much they enjoyed the space. Plus, staying on property during the weekend made everything so easy, convenient, and comfortable.

Thank you to the Chautauqua team-we'll always remember this day!

We had a wonderful wedding at Chautauqua! Everything about the experience was perfect -- the food, drinks, beautiful setting, and staff made our event so memorable. Heather, the event coordinator, was especially helpful in coordinating our reception. Her communication, friendly nature, flexibility and attention to detail were outstanding. We would definitely recommend a wedding reception at the Chautauqua Dining Hall to anyone!

We held our wedding at Chautauqua Dining Hall in Boulder at the beginning of June. We started our day in the morning with brunch, held the ceremony on the green, and then moved back inside to dance to a small live band. It was a completely wonderful day.
Any event requires planning. Nia Williams, the Event Coordinator, worked with us throughout the process. She is competent, fun, and reassuring. She helped us develop our menu, suggesting items that fit our theme and stayed in our budget. She helped us decide on seating for dining, took care of renting and organizing the seating for the outdoor ceremony, and made sure our band had space and time to set up. At the last minute (the day of), she even arranged to drive one elderly guest the short distance to the ceremony and back. Nia also always responded supportively at moments of panic (when we thought we had missed a detail or needed to add something very quickly).
The dining hall crew was efficient and unobtrusive, they prepared a wonderful buffet, and the bartender served delicious drinks so quickly that we had no line. Along with waffles and a southwest egg scramble, we were able to provide really good vegan and gluten-free options for those that wanted them. The crew reset the dining room for dancing while we held the ceremony outside, shifting centerpieces and setting up the dessert and cake table.
The Dining Hall is beautiful inside and out. This combined with the excellence of Nia, the staff, and the food gave us a wedding we will always remember with joy. We were so happy and our guests had a blast.

My wife and I had a wonderful experience at Chautauqua Dining Hall. Even before we had committed to the venue, their wedding coordinator was extremely helpful, informative, and prompt in her responses. After officially deciding to go forward with Chautauqua, the level of service didn't drop in the slightest; their event coordinator and staff seemed genuinely interested in making sure that our wedding day was everything we had ever dreamed of. As our wedding drew closer, we had some minor panics with event planning mistakes that we had made, but with a quick call over to the Chautauqua event staff, we were able to painlessly sort everything out. We really appreciated their responsiveness and flexibility! On the big day, everything went so smoothly and we were extremely impressed by the efforts of not only the event coordinator, but the rest of the dining hall staff. We would absolutely recommend this venue to anyone interested in a small-to-medium sized wedding in the Boulder, CO area.

Can't say enough good things about our wedding reception at the Dining Hall. We were looking for a space that was beautiful on it's own without adding decorating work for us and this was absolutely it. From the day we started working with Lauren to the day of our wedding, everything was great. She was responsive, fun and amazing to work with. Not to mention - the food was SO good! We had multiple guest comment on how great the food was and no doubt our local friends will make it back there for dinner in the future. Last but not least, the staff - so friendly and amazing. They would check in with me to make sure I got my food they put away for me in the back and that I had enough to eat. Highly recommend.

Chautauqua Dining Hall is one of the most gorgeous venues in the state. In addition to the setting, their kitchen produces absolutely delicious food. We received multiple compliments after the event from guests saying it was the best wedding food they’ve ever had. Wedding planning can be overwhelming at times, and it was so great to work with Lauren, the in-house coordinator at Chautauqua. She was professional, helpful, and organized. She also stayed in constant communication during the whole process. The event was everything we hoped it would be and much more. Thank you!

We absolutely loved the location. Couldn't be happier with the outdoor ceremony location. The dining hall has a lot of rustic charm. It was a great spot for the reception.
The venue has catering and cake connection, although you can bring a cake from somewhere else. The food was delish and the cake (lemoncello, chocolate grand marnier) was amazing. We planned the wedding from Texas and were able to get everything done with the help of Lauren. She did a great job!

Getting married at Chautauqua was my dream, I never thought it would be so affordable! I love Chautauqua and the aesthetic of the dining hall and the food is great. I had looked at plenty of other places because I figured Chautauqua would be out of my budget and was totally unimpressed. When I found out it was well within our means I was over the moon. Not only that, but Lauren Seymour was an amazing coordinator whose patience rivals a saints. She is incredibly talented at what she does and went above and beyond to help me multiple times with stuff I am pretty sure isn't in her job description. She took a lot of time to make sure everything was done the way we wanted and double checked everything which gave me incredible peace of mind. Everything we wanted was easy to accomplish and wedding planning was incredibly fun because they made it so easy on us.

I'm so grateful for her and all of the staff at the Dining Hall for working so hard to make out wedding so fantastic! We had so much fun and our food was insanely good.

The staff at Chautauqua Dining Hall, particularly Lauren Seymour, did a wonderful job of making our wedding day special and memorable. The set up and service were outstanding. The food and drink were beyond compare. Our guests raved about the reception and the delicious buffet - all entrees were delicious. The wedding cake by Rochelle was beautiful and abundant-but most of all moist and delicious. The staff turned the room around quickly for our dance party and were gracious with our guests. Thank you for a spectacular day and series of events. We love our Chautauqua.

Our wedding was small (just under 50 people), so we opted to have our reception at the Community House in the Grand Assembly. For those who don't know, the Community House is one of the buildings located at Chautauqua. The Chautauqua Dining Hall's on-site catering services provided everything for our reception.

I want to first say that the Catering Manager, Lauren Kaufman was FABULOUS!!! She guided us through everything relating to the Rehearsal Dinner at the Dinning Hall as well as our options for appetizers, entrees, beverages for the reception. She was also was a great resource for seating options, linens as well as scheduling when our first dance should occur, etc. She also did a fabulous job coordinating with our outside vendors (florist, DJ, etc).

Now on to the food - The rehearsal dinner was wonderful @ the Dining Hall-We had about 25 people & we chose to offer a limited menu from the main menu which included wonderful dishes like mussels, strip steaks and smoked quail - just a few examples of the food we had. For the reception, we offered prime rib, salmon with a wonderful cream sauce and a baked polenta dish that all our guests RAVED about! The appetizers we had for the reception were amazing! We offered a sweet onion tart with Gorgonzola & a sweet onion jam, Spanish shrimp tapas & a steak canape. Several of our guests made a point to tell me during the reception how wonderful the food was & how it exceeded their expectations as it was "wedding food." We all know what that means, things are dry/over cooked. I myself had the prime rib & it was perfection!!! Our wedding cake was amazing also...NO LEFTOVERS except for the top! We chose a gluten free cake which was lemon and a raspberry filling & white frosting.

I could go on & on about the friendly & professional staff, the quality of the food & that our vision for the reception was completely exceeded by the Chautauqua Dining Hall! They are amazing!!!!!
