Words cannot begin to express...

Taylor and Sarah did such an amazing job planning and executing our wedding. We had some pretty unique requests (LGBTQ owned or ally vendors, sober/recovery friendly options with a full bar still available, non-religious only) and they were able to recommend the perfect vendor for our every need. They were organized, efficient, communicative and kept our stress levels to an absolute minimum. The wedding went off without a single hiccup and the day was absolutely stunning. They're the best in the biz and worth every penny and then some for sure!

The Best Wedding Planner in Colorado

Taylor/Mountainside Events is an absolute gem of a wedding planner! From day one, she made the whole process feel effortless with her relaxed and friendly approach, while still being incredibly detail-oriented. She asked all the right questions and made sure nothing was overlooked, which put us at ease knowing we were in expert hands.

Her experience in the industry truly shined, and every little detail on the big day was flawless thanks to her. If you're looking for someone who combines warmth, professionalism, and a knack for perfection, Taylor/Mountainside Events hands down the best wedding planner in Northern Colorado. We couldn’t have done it without her!

Just hire them already and actually enjoy your wedding.

My bride and I were married on 9/7/2024 at Rist Canyon Inn in Laporte, Colorado. We hired Taylor and the Mountainside Events team for their full-service wedding planning package.

Taylor and her team helped us identify vendors for our wedding and plan those little details. We are both full-time researchers in academia and have little free time on our hands due to where we both are in our careers. Taylor and her planning team were integral in minimizing pre-wedding planning stress by helping to handle all the details and making our decisions much easier. However, the benefits of hiring Taylor and the mountainside events team don't end with minimizing wedding planning stress.

Taylor and her team were absolutely AMAZING day of the wedding. The whole day was a complete whirlwind, but we didn't have to stress about anything thanks to their team. Every little detail was taken care of. While I am sure there were issues that popped up, we really didn't have to deal with any. Taylor only came to us with questions on our preference when she wanted to make sure x,y, or z happened the way we wanted. Otherwise, we were able to just be present on our big day.

We can't recommend Taylor and the Mountainside Events team enough. Just hire them already and actually enjoy your wedding.

Numerous of our guests commented on how flawlessly everything ran. The vendors also let us know that this was one of the smoothest weddings that they had attended, and all of this would not have been possible with Taylor’s attention to detail and her impeccable planning skills.

We can't recommend Taylor and the Mountainside Events team enough.

My wife & I have a Catering business called Juli y Juan's Kitchen, and we have had the pleasure to collaborate with Mountainside events for a few years now. Taylor brings a great creative and flexible side of planning that will make your event a great success. This is her passion and you will be able to feel the personalized attention into every detail. She is a true born in Fort Collins so she has developed great relationships over the year. We completely recommend Mountainside Events for any of your events, small, big, medium size, they all need a great event planner and Taylor is your person. =D
