    June 2026 wedding

    We could not have asked for a more beautiful wedding venue than Black Canyon Inn. The scenery is absolutely breathtaking, with stunning mountain views that made every moment feel magical. From the ceremony to the reception, everything was picture-perfect, and our guests are still talking about how incredible the setting was.

    What truly made our experience exceptional was Anna, our wedding coordinator. From the very beginning, she was organized, responsive, and genuinely invested in making our day everything we dreamed it would be. Her attention to detail, professionalism, and calm presence helped make the entire planning process stress-free. On our wedding day, she handled everything seamlessly behind the scenes so that we could simply enjoy every moment with our family and friends.

    If you’re looking for a venue with unforgettable views and a coordinator who truly goes above and beyond, I cannot recommend Black Canyon Inn and Anna highly enough. They exceeded every expectation and helped create memories we will cherish for a lifetime. Thank you for making our wedding day absolutely perfect!

    Best Day of our lives

    This venue is absolutely gorgeous. The property, the outdoor views, the food, the professionalism, everything was truly 10/10. We were also incredibly lucky to be paired with our wedding coordinator, Anna, and she was nothing short of amazing. Leading up to our wedding day, she was communicative, punctual, thoughtful, and incredibly kind. Anna always made sure my wife and I felt comfortable, informed, and completely taken care of every step of the way. On the wedding day itself, she checked in on us constantly, made sure we needed for nothing, and helped our family and guests feel completely at home. She went above and beyond in every possible way. By the end of it all, we felt like we hadn’t just worked with a wedding coordinator, we had gained a friend.

    We truly cannot recommend this venue enough. Black Canyon Inn will make sure you, your partner, and your guests have a day you will never forget.
    Thank you Black Canyon Inn!

    Black Canyon Inn

    I can’t speak highly enough of the Black Canyon Inn Wedding Venue! They were incredibly professional throughout the entire process leading up to the wedding and were proactive in getting everything planned. They make the process of planning a wedding much easier than a typical venue.

    The day of the wedding was incredible too. The venue is perfectly sized to hold up to 200 people and provides beautiful scenery to highlight the ceremony. The reception also went smoothly and the food was absolutely incredible. The entire staff was professional and responsive; we could tell their goal was to make the reception perfect.

    Lastly, our venue coordinator, Anna, was incredible. She offered insight both leading up to and during the ceremony that was invaluable. Her hard work behind the scenes during the ceremony and reception ensured that all went smoothly. She was incredible and made our day so much better!

    Heaven on Earth

    This venue has it all. The option for an indoor wedding but with the ability to open doors for the outside atmosphere was exactly what we wanted and needed. The views were incredible but what truly made our day was the staff. Terisa is a god send in planning. Details I wasn’t sure on she helped with so efficiently. She understood the hectic process and was flexible in any changes we had. Originally planning for 200 guests and only have 80 seemed like such a change but it turned out perfect. Even the kitchen staff were dancing with us by the end of the night. So much fun, laughter, and smiles. Not a single hiccup the day of because of how amazing the staff and venue were. Highly recommend this venue to anyone who wants a gorgeous night without breaking the bank.

    Perfect wedding

    Not sure where to even begin! ANNA! We can’t thank you enough for ALL that you did to make our day perfect. She was the sweetest, so professional, and responsive. She even worked with me on every single details we wanted for our wedding… and there was a lot. People always say: something will go wrong on your day, and to now worry. BUT I can honestly say we have absolutely no issue or problems on my day! It was because or the staff and ANNA. It gos without saying this venue was one of the most beautiful venues, but it’s better when the staff matches the elegance of the venue! Couldn’t say a enough good things! L

    My dream wedding!!

    Our wedding at the Black Canyon was absolutely perfect and turned out even better than we imagined. We chose the Boulders venue and received so many compliments from our guests about how beautiful the venue was and how amazing and attentive the crew was. Our coordinator, Anna, made it so easy for us and was an absolute pleasure to work with. Also, Gilberto, Jorge, Francisco, Edith, Diego, and the rest of the black canyon team were so fun and we loved having them work our wedding. I strongly recommend choosing the Black Canyon Inn!!

    A venue so beautiful our guests are still talking about it!

    We're locals in the Boulder area and quickly learned that Estes Park is a highly sought-after wedding destination. We didn't fully grasp just how sought-after until we began our venue search. When we toured Black Canyon Inn in July 2024, we were stunned to find that our date in November 2025 was the only one left for the entire year! It’s clear that this venue is difficult to book for a very good reason.

    Black Canyon Inn delivers truly excellent service and provides a dedicated day-of coordinator, which was a huge relief. They do not allow outside catering, and as self-proclaimed food lovers, we were initially hesitant about this policy. However, we took a leap of faith after hearing from so many vendors that their wedding food is some of the best around—and they were absolutely right. The food was phenomenal and completely exceeded our expectations.

    They also have a fantastic list of recommended vendors, which helped us tremendously with our wedding planning. It gave us confidence that we were making great choices every step of the way.

    As we were planning, we noticed a recurring theme in the wedding community: many couples want to feel "unique" and "special," wanting a wedding that doesn't feel like anyone else's. While we understand that sentiment, our philosophy was different. We chose Black Canyon Inn precisely because they do so many weddings. We wanted a "well-oiled machine" that has the experience and expertise to handle anything that might come up. We are only having a wedding once, and we wanted a team that knows exactly what they are doing through experience.

    For any couples searching for a venue, our advice is this: don't let your "wow factor" come from choosing an inexperienced venue. Let it come from the special moments with your family and friends. Your wedding is always going to be unique because you are not anyone else! Black Canyon Inn provided the perfect, seamless backdrop for our day, and we couldn't be happier. We highly recommend them.

    Best wedding venue ever

    Black Canyon is a magical place to celebrate a wedding. We had an incredible experience with them. The location is beautiful and the venue itself is breathtaking. Anna, our day of coordinator, went above and beyond to make sure our wedding was perfect. She was fantastic to work with and the care that she has for these special moments in people’s lives really showed. I highly recommend choosing Black Canyon Inn for your wedding!

    10/10 Would Reccomend!

    Black Canyon was a stunning venue for our event. Their team was professional, kind, and genuinely invested in helping us bring our vision to life. They were flexible with room arrangements and guided us through a thoughtful planning process to make the night run smoothly. The linens and colors to choose from were beautiful, and the on-site staff brought fun energy to the event. Communication was excellent—they were very responsive to emails and even helped alleviate stress along the way. We’re so grateful to them in helping us create a memorable evening.

    The best views, staff, & venue

    Black Canyon Inn was everything we dreamed of! We chose to have our wedding at The Boulders location due to the beautiful architecture and breathtaking views that left our guests speechless. We were matched with Anna for our day of coordinator and she was exceptional! She helped answer all our questions and concerns in a timely matter and was always so kind! The BCI staff always had smiles on their faces happy to help with anything throughout our day. The drinks were great and the plated dinner we chose (the salmon and the beef filet) came out hot and filled with so much flavor. We received many compliments from our guests saying it was some of the best wedding food they had ever had! We had a guest count of only 45 and the ceremony and reception rooms both looked great despite the smaller wedding. A large majority of our guests stayed at the condos on the BCI property and we could not rave more of how that was a great idea because everyone was so close together and even closer to the venue!

    Best wedding venue ever!

    After our wedding here a few weeks ago, I can tell you that the Boulders at Black Canyon Inn is the definition of perfection. The view is hard to beat, which was initially why we booked it so quickly without even seeing it in person. But there is so much more about a Black Canyon Inn wedding than the stunning view that made it perfect. After booking, they were always so responsive to questions we had along the way. Around 4.5 months before the wedding, we were assigned Anna as our coordinator and I could go on and on about how amazing she was. With Anna’s guidance, nailing down the final details for the wedding day felt like a breeze. On the day of, everything ran so smoothly thanks to Anna’s attention to detail and the rest of the staff’s execution. And for the end of the night, we were in great hands with Gilberto.
    As mentioned in so many other reviews, the food was excellent. Ever since our catering tasting, we were excited for the food (particularly the appetizers!) and I know our guests loved it all as well.
    The venue space itself, the view, the food, and most importantly, the staff are a huge reason that we had the wedding of our dreams. I would highly recommend

    Made our (GF) wedding dreams come true!

    As an out of state mom acting as my daughter’s wedding planner, I was worried about managing the process long distance. From my first zoom meeting with Anna, I knew I was in capable hands. Anna was our cheerleader, our supportive ear and our expert advisor. The entire wedding team was professional and responsive throughout the process.
    We had an unusual situation with a bride, many wedding party members and guests all requiring a gluten free meal. My bride’s dream was to have an entirely gluten free wedding from passed appetizers to late night snack - and the Black Canyon team did not just make it happen - they knocked it out of the park. The chef was so caring and accommodating and the food was incredible. Our guests raved about the plated meal, the gf grilled cheese and slider apps, the charcuterie / many people commented on how it was “fine dining level” execution. The chef came out and met with our guests with severe allergies - the level of care was stellar.
    The Boulders at Black Canyon Inn has the most stunning views and could rely on those alone - but instead they offer a 5 star experience. Gilberto ran service like a champ - his wait staff went above and beyond many times during the evening from assisting a guest with a wardrobe malfunction to making sure the bride had extra cake for her departure.
    I highly recommend the Boulders at Black Canyon Inn - I will miss my checkins with Anna - she really became a friend in the end. My children’s wedding was a dream come true for our family and guests. If you are lucky enough to host a wedding here, you are in exceptional hands!

    The Boulders Venue is MAGICAL!

    We had the most amazing experience with our wedding venue and our incredible venue coordinator, Amber. From start to finish, the entire process was smooth, stress-free, and so enjoyable thanks to their professionalism and support. Amber was prompt with emails, attentive to every detail, and truly went above and beyond to help bring our vision to life.

    On the day of the wedding, everything ran so smoothly — the staff was incredibly organized, professional, and kind. We felt completely taken care of, and it allowed us to just enjoy the moment. The venue itself was beautiful, and the meal was absolutely delicious — our guests are still raving about it!

    We honestly can’t say enough good things about Amber and the entire team. If you’re looking for a venue that’s not only stunning but backed by a reliable, thoughtful, and dedicated staff, this is the one. Highly, highly recommend!

    The best wedding experience we could've asked for!!

    From start to finish, we absolutely loved this venue for our wedding. We cannot say enough nice things about our wedding coordinator, Anna, who made our entire experience easy and seamless. Throughout the wedding planning process, Anna met with us regularly to make sure everything was laid out clearly and helped us navigate every step of the way. During the wedding, she was so attentive to every detail to make sure that everything went smoothly. All of the staff were so attentive to our guest's needs, and we got so many compliments on how everything was laid out and organized so nicely.

    The venue itself was absolutely gorgeous, and fit our vision for a mountain wedding so perfectly. We will cherish this most special day forever, and this is due in no small part to the amazing staff at the Black Canyon Inn. We would highly highly recommend them to anyone looking for an amazing wedding experience!!

    Incredible venue!!

    Black Canyon Inn is a beautiful wedding venue, with a magnificent view during the ceremony and reception. The staff was just as amazing both during the planning process as well as the days leading up and including our wedding day. They were professional and made planning from Minnesota very easy. They took care of everything day of so we could enjoy spending time with each other, family and friends. The food was delicious, we received many compliments from our guests on the quality and portion size of the food. They even packaged and extra meal To-Go. The staff was responsive and respectful and gave us and our guests a memorable experience. They worked well with all our vendors. When I spilled vinaigrette on my dress, they were there to clean it before I could even turn around to ask for help! We highly recommend this venue for your wedding!

    The best wedding venue!

    We absolutely LOVED this venue. First off this place is seriously so gorgeous and has the most amazing views! Second, our dinner was buffet style and everyone raved about how good it was. We have family members who also work in the wedding industry and they even said it’s the best wedding food they’ve ever had. Everything was warm, fresh, and cooked to perfection! The staff there had everything running very smooth. The bar service was fast and the drinks were delicious. The Wedding Team assigned to us the moment we booked Black Canyon Inn, were extremely helpful with every step of the wedding planning process. Any question we had they got back to us immediately. Then that day, Anna, was on top of things, ensuring me and my husband had everything we needed the entire night! We truly didn’t have to worry about a single thing because of her. Our guests keep raving about their experience at our wedding, and I have to credit a significant part of that to Black Canyon Inn. Honestly, if it were possible to give this venue more than a 5-star rating, I absolutely would!

    The most beautiful perfect weekend!

    We had the most amazing wedding this weekend in Estes this past weekend! Most people want to get married in the summer or fall but our March wedding was beautiful! In the 50s and sunny skies all weekend! Only snow we had was on the mountain tops.

    The Boulders: I cried when I walked in during our tour. I knew it was the spot! They were incredibly helpful during the planning process, they give you a coordinator, food was delicious and oh what a gorgeous view! They made everything just perfect on our day and throughout the weekend that we stayed. We also did our welcome party at the Homestead the night before and it was a hit! They even gave us extra meals at the end of the night to enjoy in case we hadn’t eaten! Amber and Corinne are rockstars and made everything so easy.

    Unreal views and amazing service/coordination!

    We are over the moon with Black Canyon Inn! We had our wedding here at The Boulders venue and it was absolutely to die for. Stunning views, gorgeous building with timeless fixtures and decor, and every space is intentional and beautiful. Enjoy the sights in comfort with no risk of feeling removed from the immersion!

    Their wedding staff is FANTASTIC, could not recommend more. Between setup, providing tables, linens, bar and staffing, catering, and more, for an incredible price our wedding felt so easy and the outcome felt luxurious!! I basically just had to provide flowers and entertainment, LOL. Food was so good, was getting compliments all night that it was the best wedding food anyone has ever had, and I agree. I'll be craving our wedding dinner for life!

    We had a small 12 person wedding, and while this venue can definitely accommodate more, we felt the size was perfect for this number of guests. We had an absolute blast.

    We can't wait to return again for an anniversary. The views are just unmatched and the lodging options are incredible as well.

    Amazing Experience

    Our wedding was an absolute dream thanks to the team at Black Canyon Inn. We had our wedding at The Boulders during the month of April. We wanted a venue that had unparalleled views, while also offering an indoor option that protected us from the unpredictable Colorado weather. From our first tour, we fell in love with the views and friendly wedding staff. We planned our wedding from out-of-state and the team were excellent at communicating through each stage of the process.
    Our day-of point person was Amber, and she was amazing at answering our questions and giving us advice. They offer a comprehensive list of vendors to help work through the planning process. Our tasting was easy to schedule and the food was amazing! Our guests are still talking about how great the food tasted, specifically the creamed corn.
    The two suites in The Boulders for getting ready were spacious and outfitted with everything we needed. Our makeup and hair vendors had plenty of space to work and there's an option to order food from the venue. We went with the fresh fruit, danishes, and biscuit boards. All of them were a hit.
    We highly recommend booking Black Canyon Inn as your wedding venue. They went above and beyond to make each stage easy and fun.

    Most beautiful venue, most incredible team

    The Boulders at Black Canyon Inn is perfect, we love the view and ambiance, we love the team there, and we couldn't be happier that we chose to have our wedding in this beautiful place. We cannot say enough good things about this venue and the team there! One thing everyone says about our wedding is how much they loved the view - it is truly unlike anything else. We were initially very nervous about finding a venue - there are SO many incredible options in Colorado and so many factors to consider. The Boulders at Black Canyon Inn was our first tour, and we fell in love with it immediately. It checked all of our boxes. Choosing this venue was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! Haley was our coordinator and she was a dream to work with. She was incredibly communicative, detail-oriented, and thorough. She made sure we got all of our questions answered and overall just made the experience really fun with her positive and encouraging demeanor. I am so thankful also because she worked really well with our other vendors to get everything set up perfectly. The food and drinks were delicious, and all of our guests loved them. Another great thing about having your wedding at The Boulders is that there are 14 gorgeous suites right across the parking lot, and a bunch of even bigger condo options right down the hill. This made it incredibly easy for us to setup all of our stuff and go back and forth as needed to our rooms in the days leading up to the wedding. There are so many details that go into pulling off a wedding, some big things and a lot of really little things that come together to make it beautiful. I don't know how they did it, but the BCI team pulled it all together seamlessly and beautifully. I don't know many people who can say their wedding day went off without a single hitch, but ours did, and it was in large part due to Haley and the incredible team at BCI.

    Fantastic Wedding Venue in Estes Park, Colorado!

    Black Canyon was the perfect place for our wedding! It was absolutely beautiful, and the staff were fantastic! We had our ceremony under the pavilion, and the reception took place at the Homestead. We couldn't have asked for a better venue. Also, the food is OUT OF THIS WORLD. You will not regret choosing BCI as your wedding venue! Amber S was a great coordinator and helped to make our day beautiful and special. Thank you BCI for making our day perfect!

    Amazing Venue

    We got married at the Boulders June, 2023 and it couldn't have been more perfect. The bridal and grooms suites are beautiful, the views are breathtaking and the staff was amazing. The planning up to it was flawless, Corinne and Teresa both were quick to answer any questions or concerns. The day of was perfect, we stayed in the suites most of the day and our immediate family and most of our bridal party stayed on the property right across and below from the venue which made our 5 day stay even more perfect having everyone close! Our stay was great! The only issue we had was once they shut the doors it did get very hot. We had 150 guests, it could have been that we had one of the warmer weekends without rain so it could have been the quick switch in weather....either way it didn't change a thing. I wish I could relive our wedding at BCI every year!!! Which we still intend to come up and stay on our anniversary every year we can!

    Magical, the most perfect day

    The Boulders, at Black Canyon Inn was the most dreamy, magical place we could ever imagine getting married. Everything from the on site coordinator, the wait staff, the chef, to the accommodations exceeded our expectations. We had family and friends fly from all over and each of them said it was the best wedding they have ever experienced, that the food was delicious, the views breath taking. This is the best location for family that is visiting because it will still feel like a vacation for them!

    I cant express enough how much the staff (shout out Amber, Carmen, and T!) made sure we ate enough, felt comfortable, and that everything was perfect. The staff even packed up our food with Gatorades for us to have after our wedding ended. It was nothing but professional and made our day incredibly relaxing so we could focus on our guests and have the best time.

    I couldn't imagine having my wedding anywhere else.

    Black Canyon Inn was a great partner throughout the wedding planning process. The venue is absolutely gorgeous and so many of our guests couldn't stop talking about how beautiful it was. We had family and bridal party stay on site and ran into a few issues with keys and check in, but nothing that would make me not want to recommend this venue. Terisa was our day of coordinator and did a killer job keeping us on track and wrangling our vendors when needed. I couldn't imagine having my wedding anywhere else.

    Picturesque & Captivating Wedding Venue

    Black Canyon Inn is a full-service wedding venue in the most breathtaking location in Estes Park. The wedding experience was incredibly thoughtful from start to finish. We could not have asked for a better venue to make our wedding dreams come true. The chef and catering team are top-notch. The food was incredible and so helpful that food and beverage are included in the venue experience. We also loved the opportunity for some of the guests to stay in the suites and condos to make it a more intimate and fun experience. Thank you to the Black Canyon Inn team!

    Incredible!

    Black Canyon Inn was a wonderful place to get married and they worked incredibly hard to make my day special. Our experience with Black Canyon was excellent. Corinne was informative, quick to reply to any initial inquiries and a pleasure to book with. My coordinator, well, there just isn’t enough time, space or words to describe what a pleasure it was to work with Terisa. I could not have asked for a better individual to help with my day! If you cooperate with Terisa and get her the information she asks for, this woman will WORK for you. This wedding is your ship and when you hire Terisa, she is there to help you run it, and run it she WILL. She calls you 2 weeks before the wedding day to go over things and help make a timeline, she makes sure all guests are seated before you start the ceremony, she helps with the processional timing, has drinks waiting for you directly after the ceremony and that’s just a few examples. She truly goes above and beyond. I told her when I wanted my guests seated in the reception hall and when I wanted the food being served and you best believe she made it happen. She responded to my emails within 24 hours – except for maybe one that was over a weekend. You’re in exceptional hands with this staff.

    The catering staff is simply wonderful! They made sure my husband and I were taken care of, checked in with us periodically, was super sweet to our guests and even joined in on a dance. All the staff there was just so incredibly sweet and happy and it only added to an amazing reception. Also, every single vendor I booked attested to how amazing the food was here and they were NOT wrong. I had guests coming up to me all night and raving about the food! I have never had food that good at a wedding before and every guest echoed the same sentiment. 99% of our guests were from states away and spent a lot of money to celebrate our special day with us, so it was important to us to give them a great time, free drinks and good food. Black Canyon catering did not let us down!

    They even have things set up that regardless of rain, snow or shine, your wedding can proceed with minimal interruption. Plus - this view is hard to beat!!!

    Amazing Venue

    Just incredible. There are not enough words to express how amazing this venue was, but I will try. We got married in August 2020 when things around the world were open/closed/confused. We had to make many changes throughout the year, but in the end it was the perfect day. However, our day would not have been made possible without the 3 ladies that were there for us throughout the journey: Kim, Terisa, and Lexie. The team was amazing, the food was DELICIOUS, and the venue was beautiful. I am so so glad that we picked this place when searching for venues.

    Amazing experience!

    We got married at the Homestead at Black Canyon. I can’t say enough about the wedding coordinating team, the culinary team, the staff, and everyone behind the scenes who made our wedding the best we could have ever imagined. We worked directly with Lexie, and she is very professional, but also the kindest and most caring person. She went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. Beautiful venue, incredible food, amazing cocktails, and the best people. We had the most incredible wedding experience, and I recommend to any and every bride wanting a beautiful mountain wedding.

    Do not look anywhere else!

    We got married at Black Canyon Inn on July 16th 2020! We had been living in WI and moved to MT in March! Having Terisa and Lexi be there every single step of the way and reassuring us during covid with all of the forever ending changes it was seriously beyond perfect and so very memorable! We could not have hoped or anticipated a more perfect venue, staff, food and day to have everyone share in our I Dos! We want to do it again and again year after year!

    Absolutely Breathtaking!

    My wedding day couldn’t have gone more perfectly! The wedding coordinators at Black Canyon Inn were extremely accommodating and flexible while dealing with the postponement of our wedding due to Covid. The entire process and day of was even better than I could have imagined! Our guests can’t quit complimenting how beautiful the venue location was! I highly recommend this venue for any future Rocky Mountain brides!

    Dream Venue and Staff!

    This is a long review

    Summary:
    We are two people who are hopelessly analytical and need time to digest information before we make any decisions. After walking around Black Canyon Inn, we didn't even need to discuss it... We looked at each other and knew this was the place we were looking for. The facility is immaculate, the views are incredible, and the ambiance of the entire place led us to fall in love immediately. For as amazing as the venue is and can be seen in pictures, the part we truly cherished was the staff and their commitment to making our day a true dream come true. We booked the venue in May 2019 for a wedding date of June 2020. The staff was so attentive as we planned for our ~120 person wedding and truly shined as COVID-19 impacted our big day and worked with us to have a 10 guest wedding of our dreams. In some of the more anxious moments of our lives, the Black Canyon Inn team navigated through these unprecedented times with us and the end result was a day we'll remember forever. There's not a high enough rating I can give this venue and staff.

    Staff and Support:
    Throughout the wedding process we met with many vendors with very mixed experiences from awful to amazing. Terisa and the staff at Black Canyon Inn were the best people we worked with and were a true partner throughout the whole process. I really can't stress enough how truly professional, compassionate, and competent the entire team was. Whether it was needing help with booking rooms for family, brainstorming ideas for the wedding, working with the team on payments, or customizing packages so it fit our vision and budget, the Black Canyon team listened and did whatever they could to fulfill our wishes. As the pandemic flared, Terisa and team stayed in constant contact and assured us they'd work with us to fit safety guidelines while also having a memorable day. With less than 2 months before the day, we were forced with the realization that if we wanted to get married on our original date, it'd have to be with 10 guests max and essentially we had to plan a new wedding. They of course offered us postponement options but we were adamant we wanted to get married on our original day and the Black Canyon Inn team worked hard to make it happen and were so attentive and responsive. When they day came, everything came together perfectly. We had a minor issue with decorations and they resolved it on the fly within the hour. The staff was truly incredible on our wedding day and it went absolutely perfect.

    The Venue:
    Wow! The views are breathtaking and the entire facility leaves the impression that you are in a secluded mountain town by yourself. Every single condo we rented was immaculate and well worth the cost. We used the pond for our first touch, the pavilion for the ceremony, and the Homestead for the reception. One look at the pavilion sold it for us and we had visited multiple sites in multiple states. It truly is one of a kind. There is wildlife everywhere and everywhere you turn is an opportunity for a photo. The Homestead is so cozy and the ambiance is incredible as it reminds you of a rustic cabin with tons of space and character.

    Value:
    After visiting several venues, Black Canyon Inn is an absolute bargain provided how amazing the food, condos, overall venue, and overall professionalism of the staff was. They'll work with you on the smallest detail and will make sure you're comfortable with what you're paying for.

    Food/reception:
    Everyone was raving about the food served at our wedding. When we went to the tasting, we had a hard time turning down things we tasted. During our wedding, the staff was extremely attentive and no one waited long for anything. The chef came out a few times to check in on everything and was filled with pride over the dinner that was prepared for us.

    Thank you!

    Planning a destination wedding from 800+ miles away was no easy feat. Thanks to Terisa and the rest of the staff at Black Canyon Inn, a lot of this stress was relieved. From coordinating via email for about a year, to being super easy to work with during the rehearsal and the day of we could not have asked for a better wedding venue. The location and the view are impeccable, plus the ability to stay on site is an absolute deal maker. Thank you for our beautiful wedding day and all the coordination to make it go so seamless.

    dreamy - couldn't have done it without Terisa!!

    I fell down a rabbit hole late one night researching wedding ceremony venues, and fell in love with Black Canyon Inn before seeing it in person. Once I did see the space, I couldn't believe such a perfect place existed for my dream mountain wedding.

    I chose the Pavilion space, as I wanted to be outdoors but not too exposed to the elements - we got married last month, and there was a robust rain storm the evening prior so I'm happy that we played it safe though we did end up lucking out with perfect weather the day of.

    Terisa, the coordinator, was AMAZING - she was able to herd the entire wedding party during the rehearsal, when I was about to lose my sh*t because some guests were already getting rowdy. Everything went smoothly and it was so beautiful, and best part - hardly any stress the day of.

    We also had many family members stay on site and my understanding is that each unit is privately owned.

    Beautiful All inclusive Wedding Venue

    We were blown away by the beauty of this venue for our outdoor Colorado wedding. We booked an all inclusive wedding and every detail was taken care of perfectly! We worked with Jessica Armour as our event coordinator and her bubbly personality and friendliness made us feel relaxed and welcome. Many of our friends and family also stayed in the Condos on site and were impressed with the gorgeous views also!

    Loved this venue

    We were very happy with black canyon inn. Loved getting married in the pavilion, it’s a gorgeous view. Teresa was professional and helped us get through the ceremony and rehearsal with no problems. The condos were great and clean. The only drawback is the wedding couples condo is included in the price with a 3 night stay and our guests had to do a minimum 4 night stay and it was pricey for them.

    Amazing Wedding Venue!

    We selected Black Canyon Inn for our wedding ceremony location and could not have been happier with our choice. We began our search online as we were coming from Florida but knew we wanted an outdoor mountain setting for our special day. We narrowed our choices down to maybe half a dozen different options before traveling to Estes Park well in advance to see them in person. We knew this would be the best way to ensure the location we chose would be everything we wanted without any undesirable surprises. For instance one venue had a very nice background but there was a ventilation fan on a building close by that would have created a distracting noise during the ceremony. That ruled that location out for us. We never would have known this had we not visited in person. It just so happened that the Black Canyon Inn ended up being the last place we went to see. Well, it should have been the first. We could have stopped looking after that and simply went on a hike or shopped in town the rest of the day. One challenge of our first actual visit to Estes Park to see the venues was that we were there in winter with a beautiful thick fluffy blanket of fresh snow everywhere. While this was gorgeous and fairytale picturesque our wedding was going to be taking place in early August where only the mountain peaks would still have any snow on them. So, we had to use our imagination a little to get the full picture. That said, as soon as we were taken to the open air covered ceremony site, we laughed at how easy a choice it was. We also chose the onsite Twin Owls Steakhouse for our reception dinner and the upstairs room was the perfect intimate space for our wedding party. Not to mention how delicious the food options were there. We also booked a number of different cabins at the Black Canyon Inn for our guests. Everyone loved it. Lastly, after our ceremony the Black Canyon Inn has some amazing backdrops for photos we took as Bride & Groom and with our wedding party and family. We will forever be grateful for choosing Black Canyon Inn for our wedding.

    We, and our guests, loved this venue!

    The Black Canyon Inn is a beautiful place for am outdoor wedding. They have a few locations on the grounds for the ceremony as well as a pavilion and some indoor facilities for inclement weather. The staff was wonderful. Big plus, you have lots of stunning scenery to use as the background of wedding photos!

    Heaven on Earth in Colorado

    Holy views! My husband and I decided to book the Black Canyon Inn without seeing it in person, because we didn't think we would have the opportunity to do so (we live in California and were planning a destination wedding at the same time as purchasing our first home). We were both a little nervous, but we felt assured that the pictures we were seeing online were relatively accurate given the reviews we were reading. In an unexpected turn of events, my mom and I got to make a trip to Colorado a couple of months before our wedding. We found our way to the pavilion, and I instantly fell in love. I could not believe the majestic view I was looking at. It was even better than what I had hoped for. When I turned around, my mom, who is not a crier, was in tears. She called my dad, and I heard her say to him, "You are going to be so thrilled at where our daughter gets to get married. You will not believe this place." We were originally hoping for a white wedding; being from a coastal area of California, we were envisioning a winter wedding, unlike all of the winery, barn weddings most of our guests frequently attend. The day before our wedding, it snowed. It was beautiful and ethereal, and my mom and I actually got to watch a couple do their first look in the middle of it. We knew, though, that the snow likely would not last as the temperatures had not been allowing for snow to stay on the ground. At first, we were bummed that it might not be there. But then we also noticed that the mountains were no longer visible. The view we had become enamored with were not there for this couple. So, even though we didn't get the snow we had been hoping for, we ended up being very relieved, because it would have eliminated the very reason we selected Black Canyon as our ceremony location. On top of the unbelievable beauty, though, the staff was wonderful to work with. They were all extremely kind and accommodating- very easy to communicate with and quick to jump in to support our requests. While we didn't have any rain or snow to contend with, we did get hit by some really nasty wind (wind that actually pulled my veil out as soon as I stepped outside to walk down the aisle with my dad). A couple of weeks before, guests of another wedding had taken a large number of the blankets that the venue supplied and blankets that we were counting on for our guests. Days before the wedding, the replacement blankets had not arrived, which had become quite a concern for us with the forecast we were seeing. The staff was able to find blankets for us so that all of our guests were comfortable during the ceremony, despite the 50 degree, 40+ mile an hour winds. Months later, we still have not heard a single complaint about the weather and only praise and awe for the venue. For us, we couldn't have been any happier with any other venue or venue staff. I told my mom when we first saw the Black Canyon that had we seen it while we were venue shopping instead of after we had already booked it, I still would have picked it. I still stand by that statement. It was beyond my wildest wedding dreams!

    Beautiful views! We got married under the Pavilion, and it was the perfect day! There are lots of options for taking pictures, and even two other options for getting married (pond or garden). The Pavilion was our #1 choice. We didn't have to worry if it rained... It was covered yet still outdoors which is what we wanted for our special day!

    My husband got married at the Black Canyon Inn on 9/3/17 and we couldn't be happier! What an incredible wedding venue! The covered pavilion offered beautiful views for the wedding ceremony and we hosted the reception at the Twin Owls Steakhouse that is located onsite. Not only was the property beautiful and well taken care of, a large number of our wedding guests were able stay onsite for the weekend. Everyone that stayed at the Black Canyon Inn had nothing but good things to say about the condos, amenities, and customer service. My husband and I were also very happy with Jill and Rachel who are the two wedding coordinators for the Black Canyon Inn. They were both professional, courteous, flexible, and were happy to help throughout the entire process of planning our wedding. They were both there to alleviate wedding stress and worries and were also responsive when a question or clarification was needed. In addition, Rachel helped us with both our rehearsal the day before the wedding, and she was there on the actual wedding day. She was easy to work with and made sure that everything was in order before we walked down the aisle. I can't wait to go back and stay at the Black Canyon Inn for our anniversary!

    My daughter was recently married in Estes Park, and we chose Black Canyon for the amazing setting they had at their facility. The mountains as a backdrop was just breath taking and the attention to detail by their staff made our day run so smoothly. They made my daughter's dream wedding come true.

    We knew the moment we pulled up that this was the place. No need to look anywhere else if you are wanting the full deal! Gorgeous views, easy access for elderly guests, and plenty of space for your guests to hang out and have fun while you're off taking pictures and Sara was a rock star to work with!

    This site is BEAUTIFUL! They have 3 different ceremony areas and are so accommodating up to the day before if you want to switch sites. In my opinion, for the price you pay here, this is the best deal in Estes Park. 3 nights lodging is included in the price. Everything was so seamless. They will take care of as much or as little as you want them to. We had our ceremony under the pavilion in June 2015. If you get married in the summer, in the afternoon, I'd recommend the pavilion. Afternoon thunderstorms roll through frequently. One started right when our ceremony started but was over by the time we were done with our vows. Not only that, the backdrop can't be beat. Our wedding was small (28 people) and we had our reception dinner in the loft at Twin Owls Steakhouse. The food was AMAZING, and everyone really loved it. We looked at several venues in Estes Park, and while the entire area is beautiful, having our wedding at Black Canyon Inn was the best value, and with access to the entire site for photos it was a no-brainer.

    As Texans, we wanted a destination wedding like no other and our wishes can true. This venue is breathtakingly beautiful and you just cannot compare the staff with anyother. They were phenomenal!! We loved our outdoor ceremony looking out at the snowy mountains in early May. Sarah Kleiber was the most energetic wedding planner and very detailed. It was all about our wants as a couple and she made us feel so special. Bill Huth wanted to get to know us personally and helped us build an extremely romantic ceremony which made us all cry. His daughter Kim Zigler, was the photographer and she helped us search around the property for some BEAUTIFUL shots. She was friendly, personable and wanted us to be comfortable when taking all of our pictures. I created a list of shot I wanted her to capture and she made every single one happen. If you are dreaming of a Ricky Mountain wedding that you will want to repeat over and over again, I definitely recommend The Black Canyon Inn!

    Our wedding here was perfect. Everything exceeded our expectations, and they made everything easy. The venue was perfect. The photographer they found for us was perfect. (He gave us lots of options and the pictures turned out perfect). The cake and flowers were beautiful. The officiant was amazing. And they listened to us. We wanted a simple wedding - we just wanted to say our vows and then take pictures. And that is what we got! (They offered us a lot more, but unlike some other venues we spoke with, they listened to what we wanted.). Best of all, we did not have to do anything. They selected everything for us, for a very reasonable price. We could not be happier and are so thankful to them. It was truly a magical day!

    We can't say enough about the staff and service, as it was excellent. The food was out of this world and they even treated us to champagne for our anniversary. We stayed in the Columbine Cabin, it was so romantic with the fireplace in the bedroom, we didn't want to leave. We recommend this to everyone and we also plan to come back every year on our anniversary.

    Thank you for the excellent and friendly service.

    Black Canyon Inn is a gorgeous property and an absolutely perfect backdrop for a wedding. We got married this fall, and it was the most stunning ceremony. We held our reception at the Twin Owls Steakhouse, which is right on the property. A perfect wedding.

    Sara was awesome! We have have remarked a number of times now that the ceremony went surprising perfect and we owe it all to her preparedness and experience. The coordination of the processions, the officiant and the rooms made us feel so comfortable and relaxed. She even thought to use an orchid display given to bride from groom after seeing it in the bridal suite. Those touches show her ability to think on the fly and make the best day possible for all involved.

    oh my....am I blushing....I love doing weddings and yours was a very special day for me, and that orchid was gorgeous! thank you, come back soon! Sara K.

    This is an amazing venue for an outdoor wedding in the Mountains. The views are superb from the Pavilion and it feels completely private. We hosted cocktails and appetizers on the lawn area which really added to the experience. Enjoyed having a condo on site to stay at for the weekend. There are numerous great places for photo's. Sarah was truly exceptional to work with! Our whole experience was so positive, we couldn't have asked for more.

    Black Canyon Inn's reply:

    I can't say enough about Sara Kleiber and her team! They were outstanding in ensuring our wedding day was the best day of our lives. Sara is so personable and really cares about you. When working with her you feel like you are dealing with an old friend. She was always there to answer questions promptly and make adjustment as we needed. The condo she put us in overlooked the pond with the bridge and that is where we did our first look. It couldn't have been better! We have already told many friends and family about how beautiful this place is. It is by far the best scenic background for a wedding!! We are still having friends and family tell us how beautiful our wedding was and how they could not believe the view and the grounds at Black Canyon Inn!
    Thanks for making our wedding day a day we will never forget Sara and team!

    Black Canyon Inn's reply:

    Dear ones...it was our lucky day when you walked thru the door......we were honored to be part of your very special day! So now come back and see your old friend often! Happy Life together! sara k.

    We absolutely LOVED having our destination wedding at the Black Canyon Inn. I found this placed accidentally via a web search and we couldn't have been more pleased. We purchased the small wedding package and it was perfect. Our condo that was included with the package was amazing. And you could not have asked for a more picturesque setting for a wedding. Sara made planning easy and was very responsive with any questions we had. Super easy to work with. I cannot wait to come back to visit someday!

    I can’t say enough good things about the ceremony site (mind blowing-ly beautiful) and the staff at Black Canyon Inn. They helped make my wedding day perfect. Sara was very responsive to my questions during the planning stages and Callie was a huge help during our rehearsal. Our bridal suite that came with the package was very nice and was large enough for the bridal party (6-7 girls) to all get ready in. We did our first look at the pond, ceremony in the Pavilion, cocktail hour on the lawn, and had our reception at Twin Owls Steakhouse.

    We were married on July 4, 2015 and I cannot express how phenomenal the staff at Black Canyon Inn was. When planning a destination wedding, it can be stressful but Sara at Black Canyon Inn made it effortless! She was there throughout the planning and during the wedding day. Sara and the rest of the staff made sure our accommodations and our wedding day was first class! The venue is beyond beautiful and Sara was there throughout the entire day making sure I stayed hydrated and comfortable. I cannot express how wonderful they were and the memories that I will cherish.

    We found Black Canyon Inn by searching outdoor wedding venues and scrolling through photos on the internet. The minute I showed my groom the photos of the outdoor pavilion and the mountain ridge, we knew we had to see the place in person. We scheduled an appointment with Sara and it was even better than the pictures! Sara was absolutely wonderful to work with from beginning to end and was very helpful through the process. The cost of the facility is very reasonable for the surroundings. Sara was there with tissues (for me) and blankets (for our guests) at our small wedding on May 17, 2015 where it was a little cooler than normal. We even had a young bull elk wandering around the property during our photos. A fun little secret...the Stanley Hotel is a quick 10 minute walk over a small ridge, where we enjoyed aged whiskey at the Whiskey Bar after our reception at Twin Owls Steakhouse.

    Black Canyon Inn's reply:

    We had a fantastic experience with the Black Canyon Inn. We were looking for a rustic mountain setting with great scenery and a variety of activities such as shopping, dining and recreation. Estes Park is a perfect town to keep everyone entertained, but also feels like a vacation spot. It was very important to us to find a location in Estes Park that would give us the type of mountain environment that we pictured for our wedding, but could also comfortably accommodate guests, as a large number of our family and friends were coming from out of town. The Black Canyon Inn and Twin Owls Steakhouse was exactly what we had in mind. The lodging options allowed all of our guests to choose condos that could accommodate large families and also maintain the feeling of staying in a clean and comfortable home. Every condo has great views of the Rocky Mountains, and the location is close to town and just a short drive Rocky Mountain National Park. We loved having everyone close by and didn't have to worry about transportation to and from the wedding and reception. We even had some elk bugling in the meadow behind us during our rehearsal!
    The events staff members at the Black Canyon Inn were attentive and professional. They were able to offer suggestions to guide us and keep our wedding day on track and uncomplicated. They were also respectful of the things that were important to us. When it was all over, we felt that the staff had made every effort to make our day personal and special and that our business was appreciated.

    Black Canyon Inn's reply:

    Lindsay...what a special day, and the elk at the rehearsal.....well, i will not take any credit for that~ I loved helping you through the day...it was an honor for me to be a small part of the day! Blessings in your new life together, and please come on up when you can! -Sara K.

    Best wedding venue of all time! We started planning our wedding the year before, but because of family health issues, we had to reschedule the wedding to 2014. Through it all, the staff was very supportive, helpful and understanding. When our big day finally came, the sun was shining, the wildlife was apparent and the views were BREATHTAKING. Honestly, the pictures do not do this venue justice. Every guest gushed about how magical and spectacular the views were and we still get compliments to this day. We are so thankful that we chose this venue and if we were to do it again, we would do it EXACTLY the same!

    Black Canyon Inn's reply:

    Having our wedding at the Black Canyon Inn was seriously magical! Having our ceremony on the Pavillion over looking the mountains was absolutely stunning. Also, Sarah who was our event coordinator was professional and so organized. Due to her work schedule, she was unable to help us with the rehearsal, but she sent someone who was equally professional and had a complete understanding of how we wanted our ceremony to be run. It will be a day we will certainly remember!

    Jackie, your wedding in September was magical! Thank you for allowing us to serve you on your very special day! -SARA

    We had our wedding ceremony our on the Pavillion overlooking the meadow. The 2-3 days prior to the wedding there was herds of elk romping through the meadow and even up until 1 hour before the ceremony there was an elk that was sitting right next to the pavilion. It made for some pretty epic photos and our guests had a blast seeing all the wildlife. The Twin Owls Steakhouse was the perfect backdrop for our reception, rustic chic is how I best describe it. The cocktail hour was held in the bar area, however I did hear that it got crowded in there quickly so guests started heading to their seats earlier than expected but they were entertained with drinks and apps so everyone was happy. We got some pretty amazing photos from the loft area and the DJ did a great job keeping the guests seated in the loft involved in every aspect of the wedding. It was a perfect day!

    Black Canyon Inn's reply:

    Hi Kelly, it was a very special day, and it was our pleasure to serve you! Wish we could say that you made the elk arrangements, but.....thanks again for having your wedding at the Black Canyon Inn, and the reception at our restaurant the Twin Owls Steakhouse!

    My husband and I had gone all around Colorado looking for the perfect venue for us. Each one was lovely, but each seemed to be lacking something. When my wedding planner suggested we see Black Canyon Inn, I was thrilled because I love Estes Park. I've been coming here since I was a little girl. It's a quaint, but bustling mountain town with everything you and your guests could possibly need. Adventure, nature, shopping, dining, and wonderful fresh mountain air.

    Our first communication with Sara was an incredible experience and we felt very welcomed. She had a way of making us feel special, like we were the only bride and groom they were dealing with and would go out of their way to make our day perfect. That feeling remained throughout the entire planning process.

    On top of that the venue was GORGEOUS. It was everything we were looking for. The view was spectacular. The accommodations on site were lovely. We partnered with Twin Owls Steakhouse on property for the reception and used the lawn for cocktail hour. It was a perfect experience and the staff made sure it all went without a hitch.

    Our guests (especially the ones who stayed on property) couldn't stop raving about the whole experience. We used the grills by the pond as a gathering place to bbq earlier in the week. The pool is heated. It was just perfect.

    Black Canyon Inn's reply:

    Jandee and BJ, what a great day.....it was a great thrill to see your review, but more importantly, help you in the planning and the wedding day. We hope to see you soon!

    I searched all over Estes for a ceremony location. Most of the sites were high above the town and I could see roads and buildings all around the mountains. When we came to Black Canyon, I fell in love. It had everything we wanted. It was secluded but still not too far from downtown. It had cabins our guests could stay in. Even the reception site was in an old rustic log cabin right next the the ceremony site. Everything was absolutely perfect.

    Sara Kleiber was our wedding coordinator for the day and she had everything run so smoothly. This was the absolute perfect location for a rustic mountain wedding. Our guests loved it here and our wedding weekend was perfect.

    Rebecca, what a thrill it was to serve you two on your very special wedding day! Come on back on soon, and for sure on your anniversary!

    Black canyon inn is the perfect location for a mountain wedding. We were married under the pavilion which was perfect since it was raining during our ceremony. Sara (the site wedding coordinator) was super helpful both during the planning and on the actual day of the wedding. While taking pictures, I stepped in my dress and got it quite muddy and Sara came to the rescue to remove the stain. She also had pins to keep my veil in place during the windy ceremony. I cannot say enough positive things about Sara, she does her job well and was so sincerely happy about our wedding and marriage. When you book the black canyon inn for your ceremony they include three nights in one of their condos which are beautiful. The majority of our family also stayed in other condos on site and they couldn't stop talking about how beautiful both the condos and the location were. It also made it very convenient to have all of our family and friends close by. We booked the black canyon inn before visiting based on reviews and could not be happier with our choice. Wonderful views, good proximity to downtown and the park, and very attentive staff for the ceremony. Thank you black canyon for making our wedding day perfect!

    Black Canyon Inn's reply:

    thank you dear one...your wedding was super special to me, and it was easy to take care of you during your very special day.

    Black Canyon Inn is the perfect place to have your wedding. It was the last venue that my husband and I toured, and immediately we both knew we wanted it to be the place where we got married. The grounds are beautiful and provided a picturesque backdrop for our photos. The Pavilion not only provides a beautiful mountain backdrop, it also practically provides shelter in the event of rain. There are restrooms for your guests just steps away, and easy access for those with disabilities. I had the privilege of staying in the brand new bridal suite, which was a lovely place to get ready, and just steps from the ceremony site. Sara expertly ran our rehearsal ( we were married by friends) and made sure the bridal party knew where to stand, family knew where to sit, music cues etc. (We had our band also do the music for the ceremony and they were able to provide mics for the officiant, which I highly recommend). We partnered with the onsite restaurant Twin Owls for our reception and had cocktail hour on the lawn. Everyone we worked with was professional, genuine, and responsive. Overall we could not have had a better experience and I highly recommend this venue to anyone.

    Black Canyon Inn was a wonderful place to have our wedding! After visiting several venues around the Estes Park area we decided that the Black Canyon Inn definitely had the best backdrop. We got married at the pavilion and it was breath taking. Sara and Rosemary were remarkable ladies to work with and they really care about making the day all about you and go as smoothly as possible!

    Black Canyon Inn is a wonderful place for a wedding. Out of all of the vendors we hired, Sara was by far my favorite person to work with. She was helpful, responsive, and kept our ceremony flowing the way we wanted it to. I was very impressed with her and the rest of the Black Canyon staff.

    This is a beautiful venue. The wedding was magical. There are a lot of rules to follow but when you are in the mountains it is a must for safety. You can work around it because the weather can change in an instant.The staff was very helpful especially the Black Canyon Inn Staff. The food at the Twin Owls SteakHouse was delicious. I can not say one bad thing, all was great.

    My husband and I loved our wedding at the Black Canyon Inn pavilion!! The view was amazing and we were able to make use of the curtains and heaters to keep our guests warmer in the winter weather. Our guests didn't mind being in the cold for our ceremony because the view was so wonderful! Sara and Rosemary were great to work with as well!! They made sure everything ran smoothly and I didn't have to worry about anything! I highly recommend the pavilion to everyone!!!

    We eloped at Black Canyon Inn 11/25/2013. We really enjoyed working with Sara, who answered all of our questions and helped us figure out the logistics of our ceremony. We also had her officiate our ceremony, which was beautiful. I would absolutely recommend them as a venue. We also loved the condo we stayed in, which was lovely, updated, and very clean. We hope to be back again!

    Black Canyon Inn's reply:

    thanks dear ones! It was very special for us to have you hear, and what a memory for me! Looking forward to seeing you again! Sara@blackcanyoninn.com

    The Black Canon Inn provided the best accommodations for our wedding. The Pavilion provided the perfect backdrop for our winter wedding. The snow seemed to fall on cue. All of our guests enjoyed the beautiful condos and gracious hosts. Sara, Events Coordinator for the Black Canyon Inn, is the best. She helped make everything run so smoothly. You can tell she takes great pride in her job. We could not have asked for a better location to host our wedding than the Black Canyon Inn.

    Our wedding was absolutely perfect. We couldn't have picked a better location - the scenery, the accommodations and most of all the staff. Not only did Sara help us every step of the way (and we are in Florida) she officiated our wedding. Thank you Black Canyon Inn.

    My husband and I married at the Black Canyon Inn and we couldn't be happier with our choice. Not only was the scenery beautiful, the staff was incredible. We mostly dealt with Sara during the planning and the day of, and what an amazing person she is!!! She was very calm and collective and made sure everyone was where they needed to be, things were in place, and everything went as planned. As the bride, it was a HUGE relief to know that someone was there to make sure things went right. If you are looking for a breath-taking out-door venue for your wedding, I highly recommend the Black Canyon Inn.

    The Black Canyon Inn pavilion was the most perfect setting for our August wedding. I couldn\'t imagine a more beautiful place to say our vows and Rosemary Sloan made sure that everything went flawlessly. We didn\'t have a wedding planner and a family friend officiated our big day, so her support was invaluable. Everyone was exactly where they needed to be and she made sure everybody was comfortable and clear on their role during the rehearsal. Rosemary kept everyone calm and made sure we were able to focus on the excitement and meaning of the day, rather than the minutiae. You won\'t find a more beautiful place to get married in Estes Park and the support of the staff will make sure your day is everything you\'ve ever imagined. We can\'t thank them enough!

    Black Canyon Inn provided a wonderful location for our ceremony. The Event Planners, Sara and Rosemary, were amazing--they were so accomodating and very helpful in offering suggestions & recommendations when we had questions. Even though there are 3 wedding locations on site, the fact that they only book 1 morning and 1 afternoon wedding allows for the ability to quickly relocate in case of rain, without disrupting any other parties. We had our cermony at the pond location and then had pics taken throughout the site. It was a wonderful day and my husband and I would highly recommend this to any couple that wants a beautful outdoor wedding in Estes Park!

    The Black Canyon Inn was perfect for our wedding. It is a very peaceful sight and you can't get any better of scenery than The Pavilion. Mountains in the backdrop and just beautiful trees/rocks surrounding it all. We were very pleased with the cabin we stayed in (Columbine Cabin). It was exceptionally clean and great size. Want to go back and celebrate our one year anniversary here! Highly recommend looking into this place.

    The Black Canyon Inn is one of the most romantic places to get married up in Estes Park. The people of the lodge are super helpful and very attentive and I LOVE that they provided Rosemary for a wedding coordinator, it took a lot of stress off our backs!

    Our wedding at the Black Canyon Inn was a dream come true. The ceremony sites capture the sheer natural beauty of the surrounding mountains. It was absolutely breathtaking for me to stand up next to the man I love in front of such beautiful scenery. And the ladies at Black Canyon Inn take customer service to the highest level. Sara and Rosemary made sure that everyone in our party knew where to go, helped us make the ceremony gorgeous and made us feel so special the whole day! They are very easy to communicate with in person and from a distance and they certainly did everything to help make our day wonderful and memorable. I can't thank them enough!!

    We are absolutely thrilled with everything about the Black Canyon Inn. I guess I should start from the beginning. We decided to do a destination wedding in the Rocky Mountains. When I came across the Black Canyon Inn, I knew I had found the place for us. The price was perfect, and the pictures looked fantastic.

    We went out to see the venue, picked our date, and made our deposits. Every question we had was answered promptly. They had a fantastic list of recommended vendors, which made our lives a million times easier since we were coming from out of state and didn't know any vendors in the area.

    Rosemary helped us through our rehearsal. She is an incredible woman! So kind and sweet... I wish she had been the one actually performing the ceremony! I absolutely loved her.

    She also helped us through the biggest nightmare we faced before our wedding! My engagement ring actually broke at the rehearsal dinner. The entire setting for the center diamond just fell out. She helped us find a local jeweler who was able to fix it the morning of the wedding.

    Our wedding was under the Pavilion, which offered stunning views of the Rocky Mountains. It rained for a few minutes at the start of our ceremony, but the Pavilion provided us with a cover and no one got too wet. The rain was actually great for photographs! Once it cleared up (it only lasted a few minutes), the sunlight was very dramatic. I was even told there was thunder in the background during the vows, but of course I don't remember any of that. :-)

    The room we got to stay in for the wedding totally rocked! It was a condo, which not only had tons of room but also gorgeous views of the Rocky Mountains. We had an informal "come by any time" breakfast in our condo the morning after the wedding, and we were comfortably able to fit about 15 people at a time in there.

    I am thrilled with the service and location of the Black Canyon Inn and highly recommend them!

    We thought Black Canyon was gorgeous and fell in love with it as soon as we saw the view from the pavillion walking around the rocks. It is absolutely breathtaking. I thought $3000 was pricey, but when it is hard to find an open date, there are no arguments. We chose the pavillion so that we had cover just in case weather moved in. Wind was our only bit of weather, and fortunately we were able to drop the walls, so all the guests were comfortable. Rosemary was our coordinator and was very pleasant to work with. She even had a silk white wrap for my bride when the ceremony was over to keep her warm. The $3000 does come with a 3 night stay in the condos which are impeccable! We truly have no complaints about our wedding, this was the greatest venue, and the greatest day of my life, I'm so glad my friends and family were able to enjoy it with us!

    We were pleased with the venue and reception. The lodge was warm ,cosy, intimate and beautiful. We had 82 guests and it was the perfect size for our group. Lovely to have such a beautiful venue with terrific service and delicious food. Several people said it was the most fun they had at a wedding. Great for dancing and socializing. My daughter had the wedding of her dreams at a very reasonable cost. She saw a wedding at the Stanley that would have cost at least there times as much and said she would not have traded. Nice that the wedding place had accommodations there and everyone could socialize before and after all events.

    We had a wonderful experience with our wedding and Rosemary was amazing! We had a friend marry us and it was his first time to do a ceremony and she was so helpful at our rehearsal providing suggestions and feedback when asked. On the day of the wedding she was right there making sure things went smoothly. We were married on the Pavillion in March so of course when bad weather and cold came they were able to drop down the sides of the Pavillion and put the space heaters out. Our guests were comfortable and able to enjoy the ceremony. Overall we have had such positive feedback about our wedding. The scenery is the best in Estes Park for a wedding! Definitely recommend it!
