    Dream Venue

    We absolutely hit the jackpot with this venue for our destination wedding! From the beginning, Jayme was super helpful and stayed in contact with us throughout the months leading up to our wedding. The space is absolutely incredible, we had beautiful weather and got to make use of their patio and outdoor space as well as the cozy barn. Sandy was amazing and the pour trailer was a huge hit on our wedding day! She worked with us to customize our menu and make it all happen. There are so many things to do in BV, our guests loved coming out there, so it’s a great destination spot. Everything about it was just fantastic. Highly recommend!

    Booked sight-unseen and we'd do it over and over again

    We booked The Barn at Sunset Ranch based off of a single Tik-Tok that we saw two years ago. We crossed our fingers that it was going to be amazing and it easily surpassed all hopes and expectations. We had roughly 105 guests and it was the perfect amount of people for everyone to be comfortable in both the patio space for cocktail hour as well as for dinner in the barn. Throughout the night, majority of our guests came up and told us they had never seen a prettier venue...just book it! We also loved that it is a DIY venue because it led us to working with so many amazing vendors and people, the venue is dog friendly, and it has an attached airbnb which was SO cozy and convenient. We'd book it again in a heartbeat. Thank you Sandy, Jayme and Jim!

    Kennedy, we are SO HAPPY that you decided to take a risk on booking The Barn sight unseen, and we are even more happy that you loved it as much as we do! We absolutely loved being involved in your beautiful day, and we sincerely hope that we see you both again very soon! God bless you both in marriage together!

    Beautiful Venue

    The venue is absolutely gorgeous, we really wanted an outdoor wedding, in BV, with an incredible backdrop and The Barn delivered! The staff is also incredible, both Sandy and Jamie are super responsive with questions and were so helpful throughout the process. Sandy met us the morning of our wedding and set us off on a great foot to get our wedding day started. I can't say enough about the venue and the folks who run it!

    The Barn At Sunset Ranch's reply:

    Thank you so much, Morgan!
    What a blessing it is to have such amazing couples at The Barn with us; part of The Barn family! You will forever be a part of The Barn's beautiful story!
    Hugs from us, and praying we will see you both again very soon!

    The best views in Buena Vista!

    The Barn at Sunset Ranch is the most beautiful wedding venue in Buena Vista. We booked it because of the ceremony views, but every part of the property is delightful. The barn is a bit more intimate, but it provides beautiful updated decor, a spacious bridal suite, and even an on-site Airbnb. The team at The Barn was so easy to work with. They allowed us to have access to the venue early when possible and were so responsive and accommodating since we were planning from out of state. We wouldn't have wanted to get married anywhere else!

    The Barn At Sunset Ranch's reply:

    Shelby, we loved every minute of working with you both to make your wedding day as special as possible, and it truly was amazing! We are so grateful to have been a part of your story, and we hope that anytime you are near, that you will stop by to say hello. You will always be a part of The Barn family! God bless you both!

    Incredible Venue

    My husband and I got married at the Barn at Sunset Ranch last month and are still in awe of how incredible the venue was. The Barn is beautiful, well maintained, and the owners and managers are extremely sweet and helpful. Our out of state (and in state) guests were amazed at the 360 degree views of mountains. I loved the flexibility of getting to choose all of our own vendors as well. You really can't go wrong by booking here!

    The Barn At Sunset Ranch's reply:

    You are the absolute sweetest! We have loved every minute of having you as part of The Barn's forever family! Thank you so much for the amazing day that you shared with us.

    Beautiful Venue

    Our wedding at the Barn at Sunset Ranch was wonderful! Communication was great and they were super flexible with allowing us to set up early. The bridal suite was perfect for getting ready in the morning and the outdoor patio was a perfect spot for guests who didn't want to dance. I highly recommend this venue!

    The Barn At Sunset Ranch's reply:

    We absolutely loved having you and your family and friends with us on your beautiful day! Thank you so much from the bottom of our hearts for allowing us the privilege of celebrating with you!

    Gorgeous venue, our day was perfect!

    We wanted a combination of mountains and rustic elegance, and the Barn delivered! We could not have been happier with our experience. The suite to get ready in is spacious, the ceremony site is beautiful, the Barn itself is gorgeous. I loved being able to choose my own vendors and bring our own alcohol. (Although a word of caution - with flexibility comes a fair amount of work on your part. I enjoy DIY so this was perfect for me, but if you want a one-stop they-do-everything for you then this is not your place!) Our acceptance rate put us over the 160-guest limit so we worked with Jayme and Sandy to put up a tent which worked out perfectly. And I really appreciated the section on the Barn's website with vendor options - we got a lot of our vendors there!

    Genuine, kind vendors that treat you like family with the best view

    Jayme, Jim, and Sandy (of the Pour Trailer at the Barn) are the sweetest people and were so wonderful to work with. After seeing photos of The Barn, we were instantly drawn to Buena Vista. This venue has absolutely everything you need for a beautiful Colorado wedding. Communication was excellent (both with us and our vendors) and the entire process of both planning and executing a wedding were seamless. The Barn at Sunset Ranch holds a special place in our hearts.

    The Perfect Rocky Mountain Wedding Experience

    Looking back on our wedding so many months later, we are still so happy that we had it at the Barn at Sunset Ranch. The facility and property is so beautiful and well kept, the mountain view is better than pictures could ever capture, and the on-site beverage trailer is incredible. Additionally, the in-house tables and chairs are a great perk! Our guests had so much fun and to this day tell us that it was the best wedding they've ever been to! Highly recommend to anyone looking for the perfect BYO-vendors venue! Thanks so much to Jayme and Jim for your hospitality!

    Amazing beautiful

    We had an amazing experience getting married at the Barn at Sunset Ranch. The views of the mountains are absolutely breathtaking, they were beautiful a backdrop for the best day of our lives especially having people come from out of state! The out door space was breathtaking! The owner Jayme is wonderful to work with and very accommodating. The venue lets you supply your own drinks and alcohol which really saves a lot of money. Sandy, who owns the Pour Trailer made amazing drinks with our menu! It truly was a magical day and we are very grateful to all our vendors but especially the Barn at Sunset Ranch.

    Couldn’t have been more perfect

    As soon as we got engaged, we knew that we wanted to celebrate our marriage somewhere special to us with an epic view of the mountains and Buena Vista was at the top of our list. We found The Barn at Sunset Ranch through a friend who went to a wedding there and were blown away by the photos. Once we met Jayme and saw The Barn, there was absolutely no question it was where we wanted to get married. Jayme and Jim are incredibly special people. Their warmth and kindness are unparalleled, and they pour so much love and care into building and maintaining the perfect wedding venue. We were so grateful for all the amazing updates they made to The Barn between booking with them and our wedding day. We fell in love when we first saw it, and it was even more beautiful by the time our day came! We were also very lucky to spend our wedding night at the Airbnb on site. It was so nice to enjoy the day until the very last moment knowing we were staying just a few steps away. Since our wedding, family and friends are still in awe of how beautiful The Barn at Sunset Ranch is. We wanted the people most special to us to experience Colorado’s beauty at our wedding and The Barn was the perfect place to show off why we love it so much. We’re so grateful to Jayme and Jim for the most magical wedding day! They aren’t just wedding vendors, they’re incredible people we now consider friends.

    The Barn was a blessing for our special day!

    Having our wedding at The Barn At Sunset Ranch was an incredible blessing and an answered prayer. Beautiful venue aside, it was an absolute joy working with Jayme. She was so attentive and caring, down to every detail — a wonderful reassurance, considering my (now) husband and I were wedding planning thousands of miles away!

    Just from the photos alone and from our conversations with Jayme, it was easy to book The Barn for our destination wedding, even without visiting the venue. Once we did get a chance to visit, to say it was "stunning" would be an understatement. Unbeatable views, immaculate weather, and thoughtful, intentional charm throughout the whole space — all of that interwoven together made this the perfect spot to say "I Do." Every aspect of The Barn is perfect, from the ceremony spot with Mt. Princeton decorating the skyline and the rustic beams and warmth of the reception space/charming outdoor patio, to the beautiful Bridal Suite and Groom Room, and even well-styled restrooms.

    The day before, knowing the hectic planning my husband and I had with our travels, Jayme even let us start moving things into the venue and decorating ahead of time. (As there was no wedding the night before.) She met with us, prayed with us, and gave us so much wisdom and kind words, just as beautiful as The Barn itself! Thank you, Jayme, and the team at The Barn for making our day so special from planning to celebrating afterward! Don't hesitate booking your dream wedding here. You will be taken care of and it will be an absolute joy.

    The Barn At Sunset Ranch's reply:

    What a precious couple the two of you are! I loved working with you from the start and I absolutely loved seeing your excitement when you saw the venue for the first time, and your love for each other and how excited you were to get married, share your day with friends and family and start on an amazing, God given venture together! May God bless your lives together! Jayme

    Overall wonderful experience

    We had an amazing experience getting married at the Barn at Sunset Ranch. The views of the mountains are absolutely breathtaking, they were beautiful a backdrop for the best day of our lives. Our guests loved the venue. There are so many great outdoor spaces you can use/ design for your events needs. The owner Jayme is wonderful to work with and very accommodating. The venue lets you supply your own drinks and alcohol which really saves a lot of money. Sandy, who owns the Pour Trailer made amazing drinks, we set up a second bar for cocktail hour to help with the bar surge. It truly was a magical day and we are very grateful to all our vendor and the Barn at Sunset Ranch.

    Truly Magical Wedding Venue

    This venue is awe inspiringly beautiful. I cannot imagine a better setting to get married! People can't believe the views are real when they look at our wedding photos. Our guests kept stepping outside during dinner to snap photos of the sunset. If you want a quintessential Colorado mountain backdrop for your wedding, get married here. It was so nice having access to the venue all day so that there was no stress about set up time and the bridal suite was lovely for getting ready in. Every detail of the property is perfect for pictures (they even painted the storage shed to look cute). We also loved being able to choose all our own vendors (there are no required vendors other than the bar which is pretty uncommon) which helped us design our perfect wedding on our budget. The ability to but our own liquor (served by the AWESOME bartenders at the Pour Trailer) also saved a lot of money. While the beauty and amenities of the venue speaks for themselves, the thoughtfulness of the owners adds a really special touch. some of the other venues we toured had a very commercial/money-making vibe. This is SO different. Jayme and Jim built this place out of love (in fact they literally lived in the venue the first year since they love weddings so much) and continue pouring their loving touch into updates. From the time we toured and signed a contract they had added so many thoughtful little upgrades such as fire pits and a corn hole area that just showed how much they care about making the venue better and better. Jayme had so many lovely stories about couples they had met - she definitely cares about all the wonderful love stories on their property. Thank you for a truly incredible wedding day!

    The barn was a dream

    Wow, where do I start?! The barn gave me my dream wedding! Of course the view from the ceremony is just to die for. All the little details included in the venue; the suites to get ready, the back area for pictures, the fire pit, the outdoor patio for dancing, the brick wall inside, were all beautiful and unlike anything I’ve seen in another venue! Jayme was great to work with! Every question I had along the planning process she gave prompt and accurate responses! Thank you for giving us the best night of our lives!

    Excellent venue

    We had our wedding here and could not have had a better experience. Jayme & co were a dream to work with, the venue is just beyond gorgeous. We received non-stop compliments about the location and views. The bar on-site, The Pour Trailer, was also perfect. Sandy was a dream to work with, so helpful and kind. Words cannot express how grateful we are to have found this venue and these amazing people to work with!

    Could not recommend more!

    This place is one of a kind. My husband and I loved the Barn so much and it made our perfect day so much more special. This wedding venue not only has the best views and reception area, but Jayme is incredible and so helpful to work with. Our family and friends had a great time outside playing corn hole or by the cozy fire pits when it got chilly in the evening. Still today everyone talks about how amazing our venue was. My husband and I highly recommend.

    Dreamy Mountain Town Wedding Venue

    DON'T THINK TWICE...
    This is the place you need to celebrate your love & marriage.
    My husband and I got married at The Barn at Sunset Ranch on June 24th, 2022. It was everything we could have dreamed of AND MORE. Jamie and the staff at the barn are incredibly responsive and so great to work with. They made our experience what it was! There is an incredible Airbnb attached to the venue that worked perfectly for our wedding planner to stay in the night before AND the night of our wedding. This allowed for a smooth setup & cleanup once the night was over. The entire property is immaculate in every way - from the ceremony site to the barn to the reception area. I have zero complaints from our entire wedding weekend in Buena Vista... I would do it all over again in a second!

    Our Dream Venue!

    The Barn at Sunset Ranch was the most incredible setting for our wedding day! Not only were we surrounded by breathtaking views of the Collegiate Peaks and Mt. Princeton outside, but the inside of the barn itself is simply beautiful. There is also a beautiful Airbnb on-site where some of our family members stayed. On top of it all, Jayme & Jim could not have been more wonderful to work with! Jayme was so helpful and accomodating, and it is so evident that she cares deeply for every couple who is lucky enough to be married at the Barn at Sunset Ranch.
    Our family and friends were blown away by the beauty of this venue, and we are so grateful that we were able to have our wedding here surrounded by those we love - including our sweet dog! :) Thank you so much Jim & Jayme!

    Scenic Venue with Amazing Amenities

    The Barn at Sunset Ranch was an incredible venue that offered amazing views and a beautiful and rustic blank canvas for our wedding day! We had toured about three other venues before we traveled all the way to Buena Vista and it took us within two hours of leaving the property to call and schedule our date. I cannot express how in awe our guests were from this venue! The fact that you get the venue from 8am until midnight the day of your wedding is unheard of and was an incredible perk. The Pour Trailer and recommended vendors that Jim and Jaymie have listed on their website made the day the best we could have hoped for! We have no regrets about having our wedding at the Barn at Sunset Ranch!

    Perfect Mountain Wedding

    Where do I even start... The Barn at Sunset Ranch was the absolute perfect wedding venue for my husband and I. Not only is it an intimate, private venue sitting at the base of impressive 14,000 ft. mountains, but working with Jayme leading up to our big day made the experience fun and worry-free from start to finish. Like many 2020 couples, we wound up having to push our wedding date back a year to be able to accommodate all of the guests we had planned to invite. Jayme made sure changing our date was as easy as possible, and ensured we were able to have the same date we originally planned to have. Working with them throughout the planning process reassured me that we made the right choice when we picked this venue.

    The gorgeous patio was the perfect setting for our cocktail hour. Mt. Princeton's beauty gave us a run for our money. And the attention to detail that went into every aspect of building the barn - from the romantic lighting inside to the comfortable carpet in the bridal suite - made for the perfect setting for our mountain wedding. If you're looking for a ranch-style wedding with impressive views owned by the sweetest people, look no further! If I had to do it all over again, I would pick the barn every time!

    Amazing Experience!

    Being able to place a personal touch to each part of my wedding day made it that extra special. The facilities to grounds maintenance to the owners helping as much as possible. I could not have asked for a better experience! I highly recommend this venue to ANY couple. We are an interracial couple who were welcomed with open arms which made it even more comfortable for everyone :)

    Dream wedding at a dream venue

    We couldn’t of had a more perfect wedding. The view, the barn, the owners. Everything is absolutely perfect at this venue. I’m so glad we were able to have our wedding this year and we couldn’t of asked for a better place to have it at. Thank you so much!

    VA-CO Sept 5 2020

    When looking for venues I couldn't find anything in VA that WOW'ed me for the price that venues charge these days. My MIL suggested looking in CO because that is where all of my husband's family lives. I stumbled upon The Barn and the mountain views were just breathtaking. Jayme was timely and responsive. Our first time seeing the barn was via facetime and I was fortunate enough to meet Jayme at a bridal event they hosted at the barn pre covid. When COVID became a potential issue for our wedding she answered all of my crazy questions and reassured me that everything would be just fine! Our guests had a fantastic time, and everyone said how beautiful it was and I couldn't agree more.
