Kathi Jo and her team at the Greenbriar were excellent! I was looking for a venue that had a cozy, romantic feel and that was just what I found at the Greenbriar. We were so fortunate to not only have a beautiful venue, but also have someone like Kathi Jo who was so responsive to messages, never made me feel like I was bothering her, and was so committed to making our day exactly how we wanted it. As we were coming from out of town, she assured me that she had decorations, food, cake, and all details put together and she was not lying. I went to the Greenbriar a few days before our wedding day and found that everything was exactly how she described and that there were no details that had been overlooked. On the day of the wedding, everything happened without delay or problem and all of our guests said how beautiful the venue was and how even more incredible the staff was. I highly recommend the Greenbriar, Kathi Jo, and the rest of her team to anyone!

We had a small elopement (total 10 guests) and looked all over the Boulder area for a place to accommodate a private party for such a small group. After what proved to be a very challenging search, we finally stumbled upon the greenbriar and we are so glad we did. From the very beginning Kathh Jo was very attentive, reassuring us that they had a perfect space for us to have a private dinner with our small group. The communication from day one was always great. The day our of celebration dinner was absolutely perfect. The property itself is very beautiful and well maintained, and then the private room where we all were was warm and quaint. They had us gathered around a large square table which made for a perfect family dinner vibe which was exactly what we were going for. Joe as our personal waiter was the best experience. He quickly picked up on our family's sense of humor and had us laughing all night. We had our wedding cake made on premises, and that, along with all of the food (and wine) was absolutely delicious...I cant say enough. Even though we were a small group, we felt just as important as a wedding of 200.

Intimate venue with beautiful outdoor space
My husband and I chose the Greenbriar Inn because it felt intimate and familiar, has beautiful grounds (we knew we wanted to have an outdoor ceremony), and it didn't feel like a corporate venue. We worked with Kathi Jo to plan our wedding. She was easy to communicate with and responsive. The week leading up to our wedding was rainy, but Kathi Jo had multiple ceremony options in case things didn't clear up -- though ultimately the sun came out and we were able to have our ceremony outdoors where we had originally planned! The food was excellent, and the chef even made our favorite dessert that was not on the menu. So many of our family and friends complimented us on the venue, they loved that it was a restaurant and they loved the food! Kathi Jo has a great team who were so friendly and worked so hard the day of. We couldn't be happier with our choice of venue and can't wait to go back and visit for a meal.

A beautiful venue for photography. The location and grounds are beautiful, the food is top notch and the staff is excellent. I recommend the GreenBriar to all my brides.
The Greenbriar is a lovely venue for your wedding or other special event. There are two outdoor areas available and of course the ambience inside is wonderful too. Phil, the owner, is accomodating, organized and interested in making sure weddings go perfectly! The staff is highly professional. We always look forward to performing music at the Greenbriar for weddings, receptions, parties, and Holiday events! Ptarmigan Stirng Quartet of Boulder
