Upbeat staff, made everything easy
We cannot speak highly enough of the Pines at Genesee. Every member of their staff was exceptionally kind and focused on making our day special and they made sure that we didn’t have to worry about the details. The planning process was very easy, we were able to plan everything in one meeting. The day of, everything went smoothly. They interacted with all of our vendors so we didn’t need to worry about any of it. While we were taking pictures, they brought us a tray of appetizers so that we could still enjoy them, and dinner was ready to go when we returned. The food was all incredible and we heard many compliments from our guests! In addition to helping everything run smoothly, they were very willing to work with our alterations to the typical ceremony. We didn’t get a chance to eat much of our dinner so they packed it in a box and sent it home with us. One huge benefit was that we could decide how long the party should go once we started. We were given the chance to add an extra hour during the reception. Before the reception, we didn’t know if people would be wanting to stay so we were guessing we wouldn’t need the extra hour, but we decided that night to use it and it was the right decision.
Initially, the lack of provided alcohol seemed like a potential headache, but we were able to order wine and beer through Applecjacks (recommended by the pines). This made the alcohol super easy and all of it was our favorite wines and beers. This ended up being less expensive and better than the alcohol provided by other venues.
Overall, 100% of our interactions with the individuals at the pines were great, their prices are very affordable, they made the whole night go incredibly smoothly, and their food was amazing. We would highly recommend the Pines at Genesee to any couple looking for a wedding venue.We cannot speak highly enough of the Pines at Genesee.

All the support you need!
My fiancé and I were unable to schedule an on-site tour together due to our schedule but Pines we’re super flexible with us and were able to set up a virtual tour for us so that we could still speak with a representative right away, get our questions answered and get our quotes. We did eventually see the venue during an “Open House” and it was amazing! Everyone was so friendly and super helpful through the whole process. One thing led to another and we signed! Can’t wait to start planning! 🤍My fiancé and I were unable to schedule an on-site tour together due to our schedule but Pines we’re super flexible with us and were able to set up a virtual tour for us so that we could still speak with a representative right away, get our questions answered and get our quotes.

A perfect mountain wedding venue and planning team
The Pines by Wedgewood Weddings hosted our wedding on 8/01/2024. Our day was a dream come true! We wanted a mountain venue, and The Pines was a perfect choice. Both outdoors and indoors are absolutely stunning. We loved having an outdoor ceremony in the forest and an indoor/outdoor reception with the patio during August. As for their team - I can't recommend them enough. The entire year of planning and the wedding day were flawless. They thought of details that never would have entered my mind and were absolutely on point with communication. I truly never had to stress over anything and was completely free to party and interact with our guests on our wedding day. Cristen was a fabulous day of coordinator. We were also working with a limited budget, and Cristen and the team were happy to lay out all of our options and help us make it work. Booking our wedding through The Pines at Wedgewood Weddings was worth every penny. I highly recommend this venue and team! We thank you for the perfect wedding!The Pines by Wedgewood Weddings hosted our wedding on 8/01/2024. Our day was a dream come true! We wanted a mountain venue, and The Pines was a perfect choice.

Review for Wedgewood Wedding at the Pines
When I proposed to my fiancée, I knew that planning the wedding would be a massive task. I have been involved in several weddings before, so I knew how involved it could be. Wedgewood Weddings at the Pines not only has an amazing venue in Colorado but has several other features that made wedding planning a breeze.
The first thing that we saw was the venue. The unique location, right in the mountains outside of Golden, checked off all the aesthetics that we wanted – surrounded by nature and pine trees, an experience of the Rockies (and of course a ride that isn’t too far away from civilization). The venue itself is great. We had an opportunity to visit it beforehand and it has a nice floorplan with large windows and a balcony that overlooks nature. We love the Colorado mountain atmosphere, and this place has all of it. The outdoor ceremony location is amazing, so we are bummed we didn’t get to have an outdoor wedding!
The second great thing about Wedgewood was the staff (Sara and Audrey helped us with our wedding). They were extremely responsive and flexible. They were transparent throughout the whole planning process, followed through with anything we asked, and answered all our questions. They made sure to periodically check in and keep track of the whole wedding process. Because they were so experienced, this took a ton of stress off me and my fiancée.
The third great thing about Wedgewood is the flexibility of customization as well as the features included. Looking into other venues, things are often not included in the venue (i.e. food catering, the cake, florals, invitations, drinks, DJ services, officiant, etc.) which means you will have to go find and organize them yourself. The fact that the pricing is competitive with other places, but you have so many of these things included, was more than worth it. They gave us a wedding binder which easily explains all the aspects of the wedding and keeps it organized. In terms of customization, we were able to add or remove specific things that we did or didn’t want. For example, accent lightings are a part of the elite package, but we only had the premium. They allowed us to include these in our wedding despite not having the deluxe package. We were also able to remove a few things as well that we didn’t want. Don’t even get me started with how easy it was coordinating florals, cakes, or the photographer either! I am very grateful that a lot of the nitty gritty was taken care of so we could focus on other aspects of the wedding without stress.
I’m writing this a few months before my wedding and the process up until now has been smooth and enjoyable. I cannot wait until we actually get married at Wedgewood at the Pines in a few months!

Great Venue and People!
I booked this venue when it was still The Pines at Genesee and not owned by Wedgewood Weddings and Events. The transition between the two happened prior to my wedding and was a bit chaotic and confusing at times but everyone helped answer all my questions during the transition. We ended up with Audrey as our coordinator and she was amazing! She was on top of everything from the moment of assignment to day-of. She ran our timeline amazingly and helped so much when we found out that our main photographer didn’t show up and we had a backup coming in later. Her help and guidance on the day was really a stress reliever and everything ran so smoothly. The venue is beautiful, and I am so glad we chose to have my wedding here. The food was also absolutely amazing! We had breakfast and people are still raving about the waffles!I booked this venue when it was still The Pines at Genesee and not owned by Wedgewood Weddings and Events.

Woodland Wedding
My husband and I wanted our wedding to be in the mountains, but also close enough to the airport for out-of-state guests. This location was not only perfect for its location to the airport, but also full filled our needs and wants. Lauren was our coordinator throughout the process and for the day of our wedding. She was always responsive to our questions and had a great attitude. She was very flexible and communicated well throughout our wedding day. I never felt left in the dark, but also not overwhelmed with too much information. We were thrilled to have her! We chose the Bistro Buffet and the food was excellent. The staff even made sure we had a plate and time to enjoy the meal. During the wedding planning, I found out that the venue, the Pines, is also well-known around Golden with lots of our vendors already working frequently with them and speaking highly of the location and staff.

So great!!!!
Our daughter's wedding was at the Pines in July. Stephanie was our coordinator and went above and beyond in every way! Her responsiveness and genuine caring about every detail shined through! The venue was beautiful and the staff was fantastic. Everyone had an amazing experience and everything flowed so smoothly from the planning to the rehearsal and most especially on the day of the wedding. They ensured that the vision of the bride and groom played out perfectly and worked so well with all of the vendors. Highly recommend this venue to anyone!Our daughter's wedding was at the Pines in July. Stephanie was our coordinator and went above and beyond in every way!

The Pines at Genesee June 2023 was perfect!
My wife (still getting used to that) and I got married at the Pines at Genesee on June 17, 2023. We held our outdoor ceremony on their upper terrace and our reception was held on the upstairs level of the venue. I was honestly split on which of their 2 outdoor ceremony spots to use and it was a tough call between the upstairs and downstairs reception location. You can't go wrong either way. Even though another wedding took place that overlapped with ours (they started 90 minutes later), I totally forgot anyone but our guests were on the property and we never saw them. We were lucky with exceptionally beautiful weather, but the rest of the day we can thank the staff at the Pines. In the venue price, a Day-of-Coordinator is provided and Lauren did an AMAZING job for us. In the months leading up to our day, she made sure all of the details were locked in place and that we kept on track with our responsibilities. On the day of the wedding, Lauren made it so easy for us by taking care of both the large and small details (down to bringing us our food and knowing what we wanted from the bar so we could spend more time with each other or with guests). Everyone told us how the entire staff was pleasant and on top of the meal service and bar orders. That attention to detail meant that me and my better half simple got to enjoy our day!
Some additional details you may find useful if considering the Pines:
- We opted to add an extra hour to our reception time and that was well worth it as people kept dancing until the end. It was $500 extra for that hour and that was in line or better than most other places.
- the food here is top notch! Even if we did not choose this venue, we were planning to use them as a caterer elsewhere. Don't miss the pistachio bread, random I know, but AMAZING!
- There is not a ton of options for uber/lyft when leaving the venue as the location is a little bit outside the main town. We used a shuttle service with 15 passenger vans and it worked out great since we also had an open bar and then a late night after party in downtown Golden.
- If you are doing a first look, there are some great parks and other locations nearby. We used an area with a bridge over running water, surrounded by a bit of forest at Keys on the Green.

Best decision ever was hiring the Pines Catering
Working with the Pines Catering was such a great experience. They were on top of everything, helped out with tasks that I didn’t expect the would and the food was awesome! I keep telling everyone that we hired the right people for our wedding and it made such a difference. 100% would recommend and it was affordable on top of the great service/organization. They went over and above on every step of the way. Very happy we chose them 😊Working with the Pines Catering was such a great experience.

So happy we picked this venue! (Long Review)
Picking a venue is no small choice, and we are BEYOND HAPPY that we picked The Pines. Everyone was so kind to us throughout the entire process. Our coordinator worked with us remotely for our first few meetings as we don't live near the venue. When we arrived in person, it was like we'd been talking in person the entire time.
The Pines is also a really inclusive venue. The catering is handled in-house, which makes things super easy. And the food was really good. We picked the fajitas buffet, which was perfect as we had so many folks who needed dietary accommodations. With the buffet, everyone could pick what they needed and it fit vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, nut and dairy allergies. The kitchen was also super accommodating of any other allergies as well.
We also loved that the venue has partnerships with a lot of other vendors. Our photographer, baker, and DJ were all recommended by the venue. Because they have a partnership, we were able to get great deals with our other vendors, making it more affordable than if we hired them separately. They also allow bringing in your own alcohol, and the servers are included in the cost of catering.
We also just loved the ceremony and reception spaces. The ceremony spaces are so beautiful, with the trees and string lights. The reception space is large and can fit a lot of people. Even though the venue runs two weddings every day, you would never even notice the other group. It also really helps to cut down costs, which was perfect for a gorgeous venue.Picking a venue is no small choice, and we are BEYOND HAPPY that we picked The Pines.

100000% Reccomend!
The pines KILLED it for our wedding. Lauren was our coordinator and she was calm, cool, and collected while being diplomatic. She responded to my emails promptly and was easy to reach. An absolute pleasure to work with and I (the bride) trusted her fully and felt calm on the day-of our wedding to make sure everything was organized and vendors were present and set-up.
The Pines Catering made the BEST food for our wedding - everyone was talking about how delicious it was. One of my guests was vegan, and the chef made a special meal for her. She said it was the best vegan meal she has ever had at a wedding... and she was a wedding coordinator for 4 years!
I also can not say enough positive things about the bar staff. They set everything up beautifully and all my guests were raving about how fun and friendly they were. I wish I knew their names so I could give them a shout out!
The venue itself is gorgeous. We had to bring in minimal decorations because both the ceremony terrace and the reception spaces are both beautiful. It's right off of I-70 which was awesome for all of our out-of-town guests, and still has a mountain feel without the drive or price tag. The staff overall was great too - incredibly helpful and communicative!
Of all of the venues in the front range, we could not have picked a better venue for our wedding. It was the perfect space to celebrate with our people and we wish we could live it allll over again.The pines KILLED it for our wedding.

Everything we wanted
Being an out of state bride and groom, The Pines at Genesee had everything we needed in one venue. For the few vendors we had to contract outside of this venue, they all knew the location and team very well. Beautiful location that offers so much!Being an out of state bride and groom, The Pines at Genesee had everything we needed in one venue.

A Dream Wedding Day
I cannot begin to express how amazing this wedding venue is. From the ambiance of the ceremony to the friendliness of the staff to the ideal location. Having our wedding at the Pines was everything my wife and I had dreamed of and so much more! My wife and I are from MN and we always dreamed of getting married in the mountains. We found the Pines via the knot and are so glad we did. From the moment we picked our date all the way to the end of our wedding day, the Pines made everything seamless as possible. We worked with Ashley and Lauren throughout our planning process and they were wonderful. The rest of the staff was just as wonderful. The absolute best part is the location and the views it provides. We got married on the Evergreen Terrace and it was so beautiful. We had guests coming up to us afterwards saying that it was the most gorgeous wedding they've ever been a part of. There was another wedding that was two hours before ours, but as most people have commented, we never even noticed them. The food options are great and having the ability to provide your own alcohol provided a significant savings for us. I would HIGHLY recommend the Pines at Genesee to any couple looking to get married in the mountains of Colorado!I cannot begin to express how amazing this wedding venue is.

Perfect, Perfect, Perfect
I would highly recommend The Pines at Genesee for any couple looking to get married in the mountains. The food was outstanding, the location of the ceremony is beautiful, the staff could not be more accommodating! Very reasonably priced for the venue and allowing us to purchase the liquor was a huge savings. Lauren, the on site wedding coordinator, was so easy to work with and went out of her way to make sure our daughter's wedding was a dream come true!!I would highly recommend The Pines at Genesee for any couple looking to get married in the mountains.

Magical 10/10
My husband and I are still in shock of how magical this venue and the staff there are! Lauren was our day of coordinator and she handled every detail big and small with tireless energy and enthusiasm! We had a very packed agenda and she made everything seem so flawless and fluid and took so much stress off of us on our big day. The food was the best I’ve ever had at a wedding. We did the Mediterranean style dinner and I can’t recommend it enough!! It was filling but perfectly light enough to still be ready to dance the night away after. And the staff was so sweet and kind to us, like they didn’t see weddings everyday. They made us feel so special!
I wanted an enchanted forest theme and we knew from the moment we toured that it was the venue for us. It’s just far enough into the mountains that you get that authentic Colorado vibe without the hassle of driving to deep into the mountains.
10/10 will ALWAYS recommend this venue to anyone that will listen!My husband and I are still in shock of how magical this venue and the staff there are!

Simply the Best
I can't say enough good things about this venue. If you're looking for an affordable venue with a mountain-feel, stunning views, really good food and the BEST staff, look no further. We have been working with the Pines for 2 years, as we booked this venue in 2020, but didn't get married until 2022 and so we have gotten to know their staff well. Everyone we worked with was incredibly kind and responsive.
Stephanie Smith in particular is an angel. She is the nicest woman, super organized and made sure everything flowed smoothly on our day. For over 2 years, she responded to my emails/questions the same day and went above and beyond to be helpful. All of my bridesmaids and family commented on how exceptional she was. All staff members were friendly and attentive, and the venue is in excellent shape. We kept hearing from our guests that the food was "shockingly good," and that the ceremony site was the most beautiful they've ever seen. Planning a wedding is stressful, but the Pines makes it enjoyable and was simply a joy to work with. If I had to do it all over, I would have my wedding here again in a heartbeat and I know of many other couples who got married here and had an equally wonderful experience. THANK YOU to the Pines at Genesee and Stephanie Smith for what was truly the best day of our lives.I can't say enough good things about this venue.

Above and beyond truly
We had to postpone our wedding not once, but twice. And each time The Pines went above and beyond to help us move the date, secure our vendors, make sure everything was on track as needed. They made the entire experience so special and we could not have asked for anything better. Ashley and Regan were amazing to work with! The ceremony site was beautiful and the reception room was excellent. The food was so good and we cannot say enough good things about the floor staff! Everything was magical and we are so very thankful to them.We had to postpone our wedding not once, but twice.

The best!
This was the best part of my wedding. They did an amazing job helping me coordinate everything and anything I needed. They made everything go perfectly and made me feel like a princess the whole time. They have every detail down to bringing your appetizers from cocktail hour to you while you’re taking your photos to making sure you have an umbrella if it sprinkles. Everyone needs to get married here.This was the best part of my wedding. They did an amazing job helping me coordinate everything and anything I needed.

Wonderful wedding venue
We had the best experience having our wedding at the Pines. Allyson was PHENOMENAL to work with and ensured our day was beyond perfect! She was very attentive to the bridal party throughout the entire wedding! Allyson brought such calming energy to the event and helped ensure our day was everything we hoped it would be and more. The venue is beautiful, great food, and easy to decorate! We loved everything about our wedding at the Pines.We had the best experience having our wedding at the Pines.

Amazing and Gorgeous Venue
We had our wedding there on 7.24.21 after having to postpone due to Covid the year before and let me tell you this venue was so accommodating and answered every question I had regardless of how small it was and always responded quickly! This venue is gorgeous! We rented the lower terrace and the lower level for the reception and we got nothing but compliments all evening about how beautiful the venue was! Also Lauren is THE BEST human and coordinator! So glad her first wedding back was ours! :)We had our wedding there on 7.24.21 after having to postpone due to Covid the year before and let me tell you this venue was so accommodating and answered every question I had regardless of how small it was and always responded quickly!

Highly recommend
Where do we begin? HIGHLY RECOMMEND getting married at the Pines. The ceremony and reception sites are BEAUTIFUL. The ceremony site allows for the feel of getting married in the mountains with the accessibility to Denver, cell service, ubers, etc. that you cannot always get in remote mountain destinations. The reception sites are spacious, clean and accommodating. The staff went above and beyond when it came to set-up and service. I still have family commenting that there was staff taking care of them from cocktail hour to the end of the reception every time they turned around. The tasting and planning process is very thorough and organized with the Pines. The food was FRESH and delicious— the Pines food was the best wedding food I have ever had (many guests have told me this as well). Ashley is AMAZING. She is very responsive, organized, thoughtful, kind, patient and the reason I felt so relaxed on my big day. She made sure everything was taken care leading up to our day, on the day and even after. I cannot say enough positive things about Ashley and the Pines team. They orchestrated every minute of the day perfectly. This venue knows what they are doing when it comes to weddings. I, as well as my friends and family, felt so taken care of throughout the entire process.Where do we begin? HIGHLY RECOMMEND getting married at the Pines.

Great Experience!
We worked with Stephanie from day one and she is fabulous!! She is extremely organized and a wonderful communicator. She helped us plan and organize our wedding down to the minute. The Italian food that we had catered was very good and affordable. We also had gluten free options for some of our guests. She helped us choose the linens and table decor. The Pines, especially Stephanie, worked very well with my other vendors and helped to make our wedding run ultra smoothly. I'm so grateful we had the opportunity to work with her for our wedding. 100% recommend this caterer.We worked with Stephanie from day one and she is fabulous!!
