This was the perfect place for our daughter's wedding! We wanted a place where an elegant picnic would be just the thing - and it was! We planned for a small outdoor wedding, but the terrible 4 day rainstorm was raging. Inside would have been perfect too, but the sun came out at the last minute and stayed out. The house was large enough, yet intimate. The grounds were beautiful. The staff was wonderful to work with. I highly recommend the Richards Hart Estate for your wedding.

I had my June wedding at the Richards Hart Estate. It was perfect. The venue was ideal for our 45 guests. We used the gardens for our ceremony and both the estate house and lawn for our reception. We had dinner in the main large room and used the smaller rooms off to the side for dancing. Our wedding was catered via food truck so we did not utilize the kitchen, although the venue does provide one. Myself and my wedding party used the upstairs space to get dressed and we had more than enough room.
The house is a historical landmark and is wonderfully kept up by the City Of Wheat Ridge. The house and the gardens are full of wonderful places for photographs. The staff from the City Of Wheat Ridge were incredibly helpful and kind. And the venue is is a great value at $600 for 6 hours.
The Richards Hart Estate was a great place to get married and I strongly recommend it if you are looking for a place for a small wedding in and around Denver!

If you are looking for a small venue this is the perfect place. It was so beautiful and was perfect for our wedding of about 30 people. They have a perfect area for having the ceremony outdoors but can have it inside if needed. Staff was helpful and got right back to me with any questions that I had.

Perfect venue!

We had a small wedding of 24 guests and it was the perfect size for us. We did the ceremony under the arch outside and then did lunch inside. All of our guests loved the grounds and said the estate is beautiful. The price was fantastic and rules were completely fair.
