Lodges, ranches, barns...Breck has 'em all! We researched dozens of Breckenridge wedding venues to find the best places for hosting a rustic celebration.
If you're dreaming of a rustic theme for your special day, you can't go wrong by choosing to get married in Breckenridge. The mountains surrounding Breckenridge (and Vail, its neighbor to the west) may be best known for their world-class ski slopes, but the Rockies are also a breathtaking backdrop for your nuptials. Luckily, there are plenty of Breckenridge wedding venues that will have you up close and personal with the scenery, while also piling on the rustic, outdoorsy charm. From cozy ski lodges to mountainside decks and private ranches, this former gold rush town is dotted with event spaces that will bring your laid-back wedding vision to life.
Here are eight Breckenridge wedding venues to check out if you love rustic style.
Breckenridge Resort
This sprawling Breckenridge ski resort is actually seven wedding venues in one. The Breckenridge Resort is home to several of Breck’s most popular wedding venues and event spaces, including TenMile Station (pictured above), Sevens, and The Maggie. All three venues will put you front and center to some of Breckenridge’s best scenery, from waterfront views to the Continental Divide. While some of the venues are only open from late spring to early fall, the Breckenridge Resort also has indoor venues available year-round if you're planning a Colorado winter wedding. One Ski Hill Place, located in the base area of Peak 8, is a banquet hall-style space with dark paneled walls, carpeting, and mountain views. Mountain Thunder Lodge is a chateau-inspired backdrop for your wedding day, with a rustic ballroom featuring dark stone tiles, vaulted ceiling, antler chandelier, and floor-to-ceiling windows. Each full-service venue at the Breckenridge Resort provides in-house catering and event management.

Outside, a ceremony deck overlooks the beautiful Quandary Peak for an unforgettably scenic backdrop. If people are traveling from out of town for your wedding, one and two-bedroom suites give your guests the option to stay at the venue for the entire weekend—and hopefully have a chance to relax at the heated indoor pool.
