    July Wedding with Wildflowers

    It's been a little over 6 months since our wedding day at Fall River Village and we still look back on what a perfect day it was. Tripp and Wendy made the process so comfortable and enjoyable the whole time! Not only is the space, panoramic view, the preferred vendors and onsite lodging for almost all our guests an absolute dream they were so accommodating with all of my wishes (as the bride) - and believe me I had some creative ideas. We would HIGHLY recommend!

    Incredible venue

    We could not have asked for a better venue or a better team in Tripp and Wendy for our wedding on 8/18/23. Tripp and Wendy are absolutely great to work with, and are willing to do whatever is needed to make your day perfect! We loved that you could chose your own vendors, and we could customize our drink package. The venue is simply stunning, and the lodging on site was extremely convenient. We have gotten so many compliments on our wedding--most of which centered around the venue and how well everything flowed. Do not hesitate to book at Skyview--you will not regret it!

    Amazing Venue & Team

    Our wedding experience at Skyview was nothing short of spectacular. The mountain setting is absolutely breathtaking. And the lodging on-site, walking distance from the venue, allowed for all of our guest to enjoy a full weekend in this beautiful locale together. Also, the venue was built specifically with weddings in mind so it has everything you could possible want.

    Just as importantly, Wendy & Tripp, the coordinating team, are an absolute joy to work with. They are incredibly organized, responsive, patient, and wonderful to work with. They provided so much guidance and helped us keep everything on track. The whole process was as close to stress-free as wedding planning could be.

    Highly highly recommended!

    Best venue ever

    Tripp and Wendy made our wedding so magically memorable! They were so incredibly helpful in the entire process (from helping out in brainstorming to ensuring our wedding night was the best) they curated everything to our needs. The views were incredible and breathtaking, the venue allowed for you to be surrounded by mountains.
    Every single person we spoke with (including vendors) said our wedding was great, which couldn't have happened without Tripp and Wendy. If you want the best (stress-free) wedding book Skyiew as your venue!

    Beautiful Mountain Venue and Wonderful Team

    We had our wedding at Fall River Village in October 2022. The venue is beautiful no matter what season you are planning your wedding. The open air canopy covering the upper deck and floor to ceiling windows surrounding the indoor area guaranteed an amazing view to host our ceremony and reception - rain or shine! This was important to us since most of our guests were traveling out of state and we wanted them to be able to appreciate the Rocky Mountains. Most of our guests stayed on site and it was so fun to see all of our friends/family in one area. We did not have a wedding planner and truthfully did not need one with Tripp and Wendy. Their attention to detail and expertise were invaluable. They treated us and our guests like family. Don't hesitate to check out Fall River Village and say hello to Tripp and Wendy for us!

    Elegant modern mountain wedding

    Not only was SkyView a beautiful venue, but Tripp and Wendy took the entire experience to another level. They were enthusiastic, prompt, and so knowledgeable. They were a delight to work with. Our 10/22/22 wedding ran so smoothly, our guests are still raving about it. Our cocktail hour caught sunset on the rooftop. Our guests were able to socialize and relax around their multiple outdoor couches and fireplaces in between hitting the dance floor. It’s obvious when someone does their job out of passion, and Tripp and Wendy are prime examples. Nothing was ever too much or a bother for them. They made us feel so comfortable and excited about the wedding—it’s almost like having super competent family helping you because they are that invested in your experience.

    Perfect Estes Park Wedding Venue

    We had the most perfect wedding at SkyView! The location and the views cannot be beat. The views from the roof for the ceremony were spectacular and made for a wonderful cocktail hour space. The main floor for dinner and dancing is beautiful and intimate. The large glass windows that can be open or closed are perfect for any weather condition. The outside spaces on the deck with the fire pits and chairs are also a great way for guests to feel included in the evening even if they don’t want to be inside and dancing. We had many friends and family members stay at the condos on site or at one of the local hotels that were walking distance from the venue. As part of the SkyView booking we had access to the community room and used that for welcome drinks for our guests prior to the wedding, which was an awesome way to spend more time with guests. The day of the wedding could not have gone better. Tripp and Wendy were fantastic coordinators and made our day exactly how we wanted it. We went into our initial coordinating meeting with them and immediately felt cared about and important. They were always there to quickly answer questions and think one step ahead so that everything was prepared and ready to go on our wedding day allowing us to just relax and enjoy the day. We were able to borrow a bunch of wedding decorations that are stored on site which was also so helpful and one less thing to plan and think about. We did not get a day-of coordinator because we had access to Tripp and Wendy and we felt they were better than any coordinator could have been. They truly were incredible and we loved working with them! We cannot recommend SkyView more for your special day.

    Fantastic venue and fantastic people!

    Just amazing! Tripp and Wendy were fantastic and made everything go so seamlessly. If you don't want to hire a wedding planner, make sure your venue has day planners like Tripp and Wendy. It wouldn't have been pulled off without them! We also got so many compliments on the venue itself. Gorgeous, amazing views, etc. You can't go wrong booking this venue. Highly recommend!

    The best venue coordinators in the world!

    Show of hands: who finds wedding planning stressful af? I’m sure it’s safe to say that if you’ve planned a wedding, or really any sort of huge event, you’re probably familiar with the dread that comes with trying to find vendors with the perfect accommodations, availability, and location. If you’re trying to find someone easy to work with as well, the stakes are a little higher. This is certainly how I felt most of the time I was planning my wedding for the last 18 months. Well, Tripp and Wendy, and SkyView at Fall River, were 100% the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.

    SkyView is truly a stunning location; pictures alone won’t do justice for seeing the sky change colors at sunset from the reception deck. The views of the Continental Divide were legitimately gorgeous enough to distract me from a prompt during my ceremony, and my wife couldn’t blame me. The floor to ceiling windows gave our guests plenty of beautiful scenery to look at — seriously, don’t waste money on a lot of extra decorations. Just point to the windows.

    There are beautiful accommodations at the resort, and some of our guests were thrilled to be there for the whole weekend. The resort is an easy walk to downtown Estes Park, and there are very convenient shuttle stops available nearby. It’s also a super quick drive into Rocky Mountain National Park!

    Tripp and Wendy were our coordinators for the weekend, and they couldn’t have been better. They were friendly, helpful, and incredibly efficient from the start. We knew our event was in capable hands as soon as we met them, and honestly it was a huge relief to know that one of the biggest pieces of the puzzle came together perfectly, and helped keep the others in line.

    I can’t recommend SkyView enough, whether for a vacation, or a wedding.

    Dream Venue. Dream Team

    We found this venue online during the peak of COVID-19, we fell in love with the photos online and took a chance and booked it sight-unseen. We did not get to visit the venue until almost a year after we booked it and only a few months before our wedding, it was all we hoped for and more. The venue manager, Tripp, was an all star and helped us create our dream and make it a reality. The venue itself is so beautiful, you barely need decorations, the views speak for themselves. The flexibility and experience of the venue team (Tripp & Wendy) made the entire day so easy and stress free. We would get married here again in a heartbeat. This venue will really immerse you in the beauty that is the Rocky Mountains and keep you close enough to dowtown Estes Park that all guests can easily access the town. 10/10 would recommend Skyview at Fall River Village to any couple.

    Dream Wedding!

    This was the second wedding we planned due to COVID-19. We will forever be thankful we were led to this venue as our plan B! The vibe is fun, relaxed, airy, and peaceful at SkyView. Tess was an absolute pleasure to work with, she knows what she's doing.

    Mountain venue of our dreams!

    SkyView is the definition of our venue dream come true! We knew we wanted to get married in the mountains, less than 2 hours from Denver (since most of our guests were flying in), have lodging on site, and have a modern rustic feel while being surrounded by nature, AND be able to have our pup in the ceremony!. I really didn't think we could find a venue that had it all, but we Skyview does! We did a virtual tour and were immediately sold.

    Tess and the SkyView staff are so helpful, kind, accommodating, and responsive. Planning a pandemic wedding is no small feat, but we always felt like we had their support for whatever changes we would need to make to our vision. Every time we set foot in the space we didn't want to leave, and our wedding day was absolutely perfect. The lodging is gorgeous and new, and being able to stay on site a few feet away from the venue was so convenient! Our guests loved exploring downtown Estes Park, which was only a few minutes walk away. It was a wedding weekend that neither or nor our guests will ever forget!

    Beautiful Venue, amazing staff

    Skyview is an absolutely breathtaking venue. The design and setting of the building are unlike anything else you will find in the area. The rooftop is the perfect setting for a ceremony, with amazing views of the mountains. All of our guests were blown alway. The space is perfectly designed for weddings.

    On top of the amazing space, you get to work with wonderful staff. Planning a wedding during Covid was stressful to say the least, and Tess and Sarah communicated regularly with us about what the day would look like. They were extremely understanding and kind during these circumstances.

    On wedding day, the helped us set everything up, and they worked with our vendors to get everything done on time. I can honestly say wedding day was seamless, and I owe much of that to this fabulous team. This is an amazing venue, I wouldn’t change a thing. HIGHLY recommend ☺️

    Breathtaking Venue

    Sky View was so amazing to work with, they answered all of our questions we had and more. We booked the venue before even looking at it in person and so happy we did. They were so helpful, professional and helped us so much throughout our event. They truly were a joy to work with and the venue was breathtakingly beautiful. Tess and Sarah were so helpful the whole weekend and helped us execute the vision we had for the decorations. They were so organized and had a back up plan for any situation that may arise. All of our guests enjoyed this location and could not stop talking about how beautiful the venue, rooms and resort were! We will definitely be coming back for future vacations and highly recommend this location if you are looking for your wedding or event.

    The most magical day!

    Our original wedding venue experienced fire damage three months before our wedding, and we had to find a new venue. The staff at Fall River Village were compassionate, and incredible helpful and flexible as we were re-planning our wedding last minute.

    Our wedding at Fall River Village was absolutely gorgeous. The view from the venue is magical, the space is beautiful, and the staff is friendly. Our guests had a wonderful time and loved the venue.

    SkyView wedding dream team

    We have had the most above and beyond experience with Tess and Sarah. They are quick to answer questions and have answers to questions you did not even know you had! They genuinely care about making your wedding day uniquely yours and will go above and beyond to make your dream a reality. If I could hire them for any other important life event, I would do it in a heartbeat! Thank you SkyView for such a sky high experience!

    Amazing venue!

    Such a great all around experience! We had our ceremony and reception here, which I would definitely recommend. The view from both was breathtaking so you don't really need a lot of decorations to have a beautiful day. Tess and Sarah were so hopefully and made the day go so smoothly.

    Rustic, yet modern

    SkyView at Fall River Village is basically a dream turned reality when it comes to our wedding. Sara and Tess are very professional and prompt with their replies. Also, they have made us so confident in planning our wedding all the way from Florida. The venue is absolutely beautiful with breathtaking views during the ceremony.

The wedding coordinators were flawless with their execution. Tess and Sarah made sure my wedding was flawless and it was! I would recommend this venue to everyone! Thank you Fall River for making our special day more amazing than we could ever expect!

    PERFECT mountain venue

    Words cannot express how amazing this venue is. With the beautiful rootop views over the mountains and the open aired reception, this place has an aesthetic that will please anyone. Almost every person told us how amazing the venue was. It was perfect for a fall wedding in the mountains! The venue coordinators were also absolutely amazing. They handled us with complete professionalism and were kind and understanding throughout the entire process while also offering great advice and recommendations. Our specific venue coordinator, Sara, did fantastic. My parents raved about how amazing she was the entire time. 100% would recommend this venue!

    Perfect Mountain Venue!

    My husband and I toured Sky View while it was still under construction. Despite not knowing how it would look once finished, it was still, hands down, the best of the four venues we saw. Tess was always available to answer questions throughout our planning process, though at times responses were a tad delayed. Our wedding day couldn't have been any more perfect. Tess was amazing. It started raining a couple hours before our ceremony and Tess and the Sky View team were ready to change our ceremony setup to allow for all of our guests and ourselves to be underneath the canopy. Tess left shortly after our ceremony, after first checking in with me to ensure everything was perfect. She left us in the more than capable hands of Sarah. Sarah was just as amazing as Tess and really worked hard to make sure our reception ran smoothly. These two ladies truly were the best and I know my wedding day would not have been as perfect without all of their help and hard work! The venue itself has unbeatable views and our friends and family all had nothing but great things to say about their experience. I would highly recommend Sky View for anyone looking to get married in Estes Park!

    Best Venue in Colorado!

    We were married at Skyview in August 2019 and there is not one thing I would change about the venue and the service they provide. I looked for months at what felt like every venue in the Rocky Mountains. I have no doubt we picked the best one. Tess and her team are amazing. I don't know how people get married without them. Tess ran a quick and clear rehearsal the night before when our officiant couldn't make it. Sarah quickly steamed my dress after pictures before the ceremony. They recommend the best vendors to work with. Tess manually clicked through our slideshow so we could play it during dinner after trying everything to get it to work that day. They timed the ceremony perfectly around the rain (and keeping our guests dry). It is the sweetest thing to come back to your honeymoon suite and see desserts, an extra meal and champagne with a little note waiting for you. My niece turned 4 months old on our wedding day and Tess worked with my brother in law to be sure he could attend the reception and watch over his sleeping daughter. The list of amazing service goes on and on.

    If you are looking for a place to have a destination wedding in Colorado, stop looking and call Skyview. The accommodations, venue and location will be loved by all.

    Excellent for wedding celebrations

    Such a great venue with amazing views to top of a great celebration of marriage. We had our ceremony at the partially covered top floor which had an amazing seating arrangement and convenient Bridal Suite in the area right next to it. Tess (staff we worked with) did well working with our event coordinator and suggested arrangements that turned out beautifully for our wedding. The indoor area on first floor was used for the reception and dancing. Weather allowed for opening of the surrounding door to allow for an extension to the patio and beautiful views.
    It all flowed very well and we had no concerns whatsoever in the planning or the day of our wedding.

    You cannot go wrong with this place!

    Amazing Venue!

    We absolutely loved our wedding at SkyView. The venue has beautiful views, an amazing rooftop deck for our ceremony and cocktail hour, and the overall design and finishes of the reception room fit our wedding vision perfectly. Fall River Village was the perfect place for our family and friends to vacation at for the weekend. The lodging is really nicely renovated, comfortable, and affordable and all of our guests loved being there. On wedding day, Tess & Lynn worked so hard to ensure everything ran smoothly and it truly did. We are so grateful to the SkyView / Fall River Village team and if we had the chance to do it all over again, we would be right back at SkyView!

    The perfect venue for our perfect day

    Fall River was more than just a venue to get married at. Our wedding planner Tess made our amazing day a perfectly amazing day. There is always a stress here and there but Tess and her team made those stresses disappear. I can't imagine being married anywhere else.

    Best Venue Imaginable

    I came across SkyView at Fall River Village because a friend suggested Estes Park as a wedding location. I started looking around online at venues in the area. As is true with a lot of mountain side towns, everything I found was like a wood-cabin. While I knew I wanted to get married in Colorado, I also knew that I had no interest having a wedding in a log cabin like venue. Then I stumbled across the rendering for SkyView. The venue was still under construction so all I had to look at were the rendering and inspiration photos online. I live in Texas so I couldn't even drive by to view the area! Everything I could see and read about the vision for this venue was exactly what I wanted. While still in a mountain town, there is nothing wood-cabin about this place. It's more contemporary and absolutely BEAUTIFUL! I trusted my gut and booked this venue sight unseen (and still under construction).
    I made a trip to Estes Park about 3 months after booking. I was able to meet the staff that would be working with us, as well as tour the venue with my hard hat to get an idea of the space. I knew then, even before the venue was complete, that we made the right decision. I worked with Tess from afar to create the perfect day. Tess was much more than just a coordinator. She helped with anything/everything, and even hand delivered curtains for the brand new townhouses that all of our family stayed in. On the day of, Tess made sure everything was set up the way we talked about, kept everyone on schedule, found solutions for our 35MPH wind gusts, etc! The majority of our friends and all of our family stayed on site at Fall River Village. The townhouses were the perfect setup for my large family, and the condos are great too!

    This venue has the best view, a fantastic floor plan, and an amazing staff! I would recommend it to any/all who are interested in getting married in Estes Park!!!

    Amazing Venue

    We LOVED Fall River Village. We had to move venues last minute with our original venue was damaged by fire. Turned out to be the best possible situation. FRV is amazing and their staff, especially Tess went above and beyond to make sure our day was perfect.

    Wonderful new venue!

    We had a great experience having our wedding at Skyview. I think we were among the first weddings there. The venue is amazing for both the ceremony and reception. The cocktail hour was moved inside because it was such a windy day. There was some communication disconnect between the actual resort side and the weddings side, but that's a given since it's a brand new venue. Tess was great on the day of the wedding and helped make our day extra special. Book your wedding here - you won't regret it!

    We had our wedding at Fall River Village this August and it was picture perfect! We were one of the couples who had to relocate our wedding from Mary's Lake Lodge (due to the fire), and we were so thankful to have found SkyView! They helped us replan our wedding in just 8 short weeks and gave us wonderful vendor recommendations for food/beverage as we frantically tried to find anyone who was still available on short notice. SkyView is literally the most beautiful location and everything ran so smoothly for us. Thank you to Tess and the rest of the team for saving our wedding day and making it even better than we could have hoped!

    Fall River Village is the perfect place for your wedding/wedding groups. We rented the townhomes this summer 2017 and had all the bridal party stay in these townhomes. Marlo was fantastic to work with and helped make sure our son's wedding group was taken care of. These homes are beautiful with all upgraded finishes. I rent through many companies and this place is exceptional!!! You will love all the amenities this place has to offer. Our wedding party still talks about how wonderful this place is.
    We would recommend this place for the ease of walking to town and the quiet and beauty that Fall River Village has created.
    Thanks again for all your help. We will definitely return again.

    Fall River Resort is HANDS DOWN the best place to stay in Estes!! I searched everywhere to house our family for our wedding in Lyons and I couldn't of asked for more! My family raved about the convience to downtown and I just loved how new and remodeled all the condos were (unlike everything else in Estes which feels a bit outdated). This place is the way to go! You and your party won't be disappointed.

    Beautiful July Wedding

    Amazing venue with breathtaking views! Wendy and Tripp were readily available at all times and went above and beyond to make sure we had the perfect day. Bonus: We got a complimentary night at their resort hotel for booking their venue and a discounted rate for the remainder of our stay!

    Amazing Venue

    This venue is awesome. We got married here in February. The outside ceremony with amazing views, inside reception with open windows and a wrap around deck . Location is close to downtown Estes Park and accommodations onsite! Working with Tess and Sarah was pleasant as well. HIGHLY recommend this venue!!

    Beautiful venue

    Skyview at Fall River Village was absolutely perfect! The venue is absolutely beautiful and Tess was great the day of the wedding- she was there the entire time making sure we had everything we needed and that things ran smoothly. She was also really accommodating when we chose to have an unconventional rehearsal. We could not have asked for a better day!

    My only complaints lie with the resort itself (not the venue) as they have a lot of rules and did a poor job communicating some of these specifically parking and the fact that there are only 6 spots up near the venue for guests. While I know they assume majority of guests will be staying on site, a number of our guests chose to stay elsewhere or drove into town that day and therefore needed somewhere to go with their cars. Fall River expects you to buy parking spots or for your guests to shuttle in from town but they did not tell us about this until the day before the wedding which gave me little time to spread the word to our guests or for our guests to arrange this.

    Regardless, I would highly recommend Skyview at Fall River Village!

    Beautiful venue, but difficult staff

    SkyView is a beautiful venue, and our wedding there was lovely, despite bad weather causing us to move the ceremony inside. It was so fun and convenient for our family and friends to be able to stay so close to the venue and made it so special for us. However, working with the staff at SkyView and Fall River was difficult. What matters is that me and my husband and our families had a wonderful, special day - but, we could have had that anywhere when it comes down to it. Tess and SkyView did nothing to contribute to that special day, and in fact jeopardized it. From our first tour with Tess at the venue she was extremely difficult to work with, rude (especially to our day-of coordinator), and overall unpleasant - the only reason we decided to move forward with SkyView despite the bad first impression was because she made it sound like she would be very hands-off as far as planning and the day-of went. We were having a pretty non-traditional wedding from front to back - no sit-down dinner, we had mixed seating options instead of a room full of tables, and more than anything we wanted to have a fun, carefree celebration so we had a larger than normal area for dancing (which we used every inch of!). It was clear at the walkthrough that Tess did not approve of this vision (later we found out that she said that was because she couldn't "sell" the venue with a non-traditional seating arrangement), and despite us having had hours of conversations with our wedding coordinator to make this vision a reality, Tess had very negative comments and was pushing back on a lot of our ideas with unnecessary, unwanted opinions on things that we had already decided. It was clear that her vision for weddings is a much more traditional approach - which is of course fine, but that was not our vision for our dream day. It was also clear at the walkthrough that Tess is not used to working with a wedding coordinator - the power struggle was evident from the beginning of the meeting, and Tess's poor attitude toward our coordinator really hindered us from being able to discuss the important aspects of the wedding that we were there to go over, especially the floor plan. Tess was instead focusing on things that we had already spent time with our wedding coordinator going over (including asking for our addresses. phone numbers, and other information they also already had on the contract), whether we having a bouquet toss, etc. Fast forward to the rehearsal at the venue the day before the wedding, and Tess didn't even bother to say hello to me, my husband, or our family. I had to approach her and the assistant, and when I did they were extremely rude and even had the audacity to mention that they tried to re-work the floor plan that I had made and asked whether I would be willing to change it... 24 hours before the wedding. After the wedding, they charged our card for damages that we weren't made aware of, without telling us about them - they even claimed that we ruined somewhere around 30 of their napkins, even though we didn't use any of their napkins for our event. Unfortunately, these are just a few examples of what we went through when working with Tess and SkyView - our wedding coordinator got the brunt of her bad attitude, but it certainly did not make the wedding planning process easy for us. Overall, I would not recommend having your wedding at SkyView until they get new staff that are willing to work with a bride and groom's vision with understanding, excitement and patience - a wedding is supposed to be a celebratory, happy day and Tess did absolutely nothing to help get us there.
