Granby Ranch

My husband and I got married at Granby Ranch on 9/23/2021 and our wedding day was truly perfect - all thanks provided to the overwhelming beauty of this venue and their absolutely *incredible* staff. CEREMONY SITE: The ceremony site at Granby Ranch brought me to tears the first time that I saw it. Preceded by a bountiful aspen grove, the views from Vista Ridge are truly breathtaking. Exchanging our vows in the heart of the Rocky Mountains, overlooking the continental divide, was more than I could have ever wished for on our wedding day. In addition to the captivating beauty of the site, the experience of taking the chairlift up to the site was like no other. As avid skiiers, it was without a doubt one of the highlights of our wedding day and something that had our guest still talking about weeks later! Additionally, it was something that helped to make our special day truly unique. Our guests had no issues retrieving lift tickets and navigating their way to the top of the mountain thanks to Granby Ranch staff. Also - a special shout out to lift attendant, Andy. He encouraged us to wait for a chair that would allow our photographers to be directly behind us. He also found us a left-over "Just Married" sign that he personally tied to the back of our chair. Because of these simple actions, our photographer was able to capture one of our favorite photos from the entire day. Thank you, Andy! FOOD: The food. Was. AMAZING! We chose one of their buffet options and could not have been happier with our decision. Their incredible and award-winning chef, Lianna, was present during our reception and personally walked my husband and I through each item in the buffet line. There was a perfect amount of food items to choose from, including vegetarian options. This is no exaggeration - every single one of our guests complimented us on how incredible the food was. Most of them specified how shocked they were that a buffet could be so delicious and flavorsome. Hats off to Chef Lianna! STAFF: We had positive interactions with every single staff member at Granby Ranch - to note, this includes the days that we've spent at Granby Ranch for our initial visit, tastings, and even on a totally separate ski trip we took the year prior. The staff truly seems to be happy to be there and that feeling extends onto their guests. On our wedding day and at our rehearsal dinner, every staff member seemed elated to be celebrating us and were willing to help us in any way that they could. Most of our time was spent coordinating with Jennifer, a true gem of a human and somebody that we now consider a friend. Jennifer went above and beyond to make sure that our day was special and we hold an immeasurable amount of gratitude for her and all that she did for us during our planning process. We also had incredibly positive interactions with the Wedding Services Manager, Liz, and the F&B Director, Ian. Our banquet captain, Zina, and staff member, Jordan, also helped to make our rehearsal dinner and reception one for the books. They were our right hand women during these events and always had a smile on their face. It was so comforting to be around people who truly wanted this day to be special for us. In conclusion, our wedding at Granby Ranch was more than we could have ever hoped for it to be. If you are considering a beautiful and unique mountain wedding with a small-town feel, then look no further - this is it!!!
