Copper Mountain is a full-service destination resort...
- Copper Mountain Resort is conveniently located off Interstate 70 at exit 195, 75 miles west of Denver in Summit County, Colorado. With its unique setting in the Rocky Mountains, you'll be spoiled by the panoramic views, friendly staff, and a choice of venues for your celebrations.
- Copper offers on-site lodging and plenty of year-round activities, dining, and shopping for you and your guests to enjoy.
- In addition to Weddings and Receptions, Copper can host bridal showers, bachelor/bachelorette parties, rehearsal dinners, elopements, and vow renewal ceremonies. All functions are catered in-house by our talented culinary teams.
We offer Weddings in both Summer and Winter...
- Our Summer wedding season usually begins around the last week in June through the end of September.
- Winter weddings are offered from mid-November until the first week in May, while the resort is open for skiing. A 'spring' wedding at Copper will come with a snowy backdrop! Winter dates are on a request-only basis to ensure we can accommodate alongside regular ski operations and events.
- As a general rule, we have very limited opportunities to host weddings during May and October due to weather and operational closures.
Our Wedding Venues
- Mid-mountain lodge, Aerie, offers a sophisticated modern setting with breathtaking panoramic views. Sitting at 11,500ft and accessed by the American Eagle lift, this unique venue provides a complete ski resort experience both in summer and winter. Summertime ceremonies take place at the Aerie Gazebo, and in the Winter we set the ceremony outside on the Forage & Feast deck. Winter wedding receptions and summer receptions with up to 100 guests are hosted exclusively in Forage & Feast on the upper level. Summer weddings for 100-180 guests will have a dual-level reception that utilizes the whole building, with dinner in the Aerie Dining Hall and dancing in Forage & Feast!
- Copper Creek Vista, located at the golf course in East Village, is an easily accessible venue for up to 200 guests surrounded by lush green mountains. Large Receptions can take place just steps away at the Grand Hall, with its vaulted ceiling,vast windows and wrap around deck.
- Indoor ceremonies are available on the Mezzanine above the Grand Hall.
- Intimate private ceremonies for less than 70 people are offered on the deck at Koko's Hut during peak summer months - this venue has private lift access on the Kokomo Express Chairlift. JJ's Rocky Mountain Tavern provides the perfect reception spot.
- Copper also has a variety of other banquet spaces that can be used for wedding celebrations... we are happy to suggest options based on your guest count and budget.
Site tours are offered year-round.

Copper Mountain Resort truly went above and beyond
Where do I even begin... Copper Mountain Resort truly went above and beyond to make our wedding weekend unforgettable! We've been skiing at Copper for (10+) years, and the moment we visited The Aerie right after it opened, we knew it was the place to host our celebration. There’s no way we could imagine our wedding anywhere else.
This lodge is brand new, with modern, sleek, and clean finishes that have a Scandinavian vibe. It doesn’t feel like your typical mid-mountain ski lodge, which made it feel extra special for our event. We had the pleasure of working with Courtney, and she was incredible! She was always just a message away, and communication was seamless. She guided us every step of the way, and we couldn’t have asked for better support.
Forage & Feast at The Aerie catered our wedding, and our guests (near and far) still rave about how it was some of the best food they’ve ever had at an event! The Copper Mountain team made it so easy for our vendors to set up, even with the challenge of it being winter and all our décor, florals, centerpieces, and DJ equipment needing to be loaded onto the gondola.
We were fortunate to have the outdoor patio for our ceremony, then move inside where we basically had the whole building for our reception. Anytime we had to make last-minute adjustments or pivots, we knew we were in great hands with Courtney and the team.
Our ‘Welcome Party/Apres Ski Party’ at Downhill Duke's was the perfect way to kick things off — unforgettable moments on the deck with sunshine, music, food, and drinks. It's also pet friendly, so our dog-son Duey was able to join the event!
We can't thank Copper Mountain, The Aerie, and the entire team enough for making our dream wedding come to life and a weekend we won't every forget!

Amazing Aerie Lodge Wedding
We had the wedding of our dreams and many of our guests dreams at the new Aerie Lodge at Copper! Our contacts were Shannon and Katie and they did a wonderful job. We worked with Shannon till Katie was assigned to us as our main contact. Both were very responsive and timely and extremely helpful in helping us plan our wedding. Katie went above and beyond to make sure our wedding went off without a hitch. We really can't say enough about the work Shannon and Katie did to make our wedding happen. The rest of the catering team at the Aerie did an amazing job the day of the wedding and our guests continued to comment on how stunning and spectacular everything was. Everything from the ceremony site, to the reception site, to the food was perfect.

Everything worked out perfectly
We got off to a bit of a rocky start, but everything was smooth sailing as soon as Kyle Peterson took over our wedding. Shannon is extremely friendly, but it was hard to get ahold of her sometimes. My husband and I were often confused about who to ask for what (the catering manager was our only point of contact and couldn't help with much beyond that) and being given vague answers or being told we just needed to hire a wedding planner.
Once we met Kyle, however, she hit the ground running and was extremely prepared, organized, and friendly. She spent extra time with me (an event planner myself) to go through specifics of my wedding day and truly helped us think of everything. She was very responsive and made things very easy for us. It certainly gave us peace of mind for our special day!
Highly recommend Kyle at the Copper Mountain Wedding team!

Beautiful and Flawless
It was perfect from start to finish. I feel like photos/review of CM are limited online compared to some other places which is surprising but might just be because its more under the radar (for now at least) but I experienced absolute perfection! Classy, elegant, quality, and beautiful. I'd have my wedding here again and again!

A Dream Venue
Kyle, Shannon, and the Copper Mountain team went ABOVE and BEYOND to make our wedding day perfect! We had our ceremony at Solitude Station, and our reception at the Grand Hall on 8/20/2021. They worked with us to customize our wedding menu and flawlessly executed our vision. I cannot tell you how many people have complimented our food and said it was the best they've had at any wedding. Their entire team did an excellent job communicating with us and our planner from day one to our wedding day. They made the entire process SO easy and seamless. From providing the catering, bar service, linens, tables/chairs, ceremony chairs, an arch for the ceremony, transportation to and from the ceremony/reception for guests, service staff, and so many more things it makes the wedding planning process that much easier. They are indeed a dream wedding venue, and they made our dreams come true.

Wedding of our dreams!!
I was looking for an “all inclusive” type of venue for our wedding since we currently reside in Florida. After meeting with Shannon at copper mountain, I knew this was going to be the perfect location for our wedding. I am beyond impressed with copper mountain and their wedding team. Katie was my catering coordinator. I cannot say enough great things about her! She was great at communication from day one and made planning my wedding from Florida seamless. I was slightly nervous about how smooth my wedding day would be since I didn’t hire a wedding planner or day of coordinator. However, Katie and her team made my ceremony and reception perfect! She truly made it the wedding of my dreams, and made my vision come to life! The food at Copper mountain was also amazing! My guests could not stop raving about the food. I was lucky enough to meet my catering team, and they were so kind and listened to all of my requests. If you are looking for a beautiful mountain wedding with amazing food, and wonderful staff this is the place for you! Thank you again Copper!
