Crested Butte Area Site 020707classical
This site is a private venue in Mount Crested Butte that for the most part caters to larger weddings than we serve. However, it's well known, and we get asked about it often, so we've listed it as a venue.
Regardless of the size of your wedding, this site does offer some fantastic mountain views, and in the fall is absolutely adorned in the Aspens' golden hues.
What we love about this site:
Great mountain views.
Summer is wildflower season, and in the fall the Aspens are turning golden.
Exclusivity.
Potential drawbacks of this site
It does require a reservation and permit to use.
Accessibility
Parking: enough for 20 to 25 cars.
Vehicle type: for winter, make sure your vehicle has good ground clearance to get over snow, as well as 4-wheel drive for potential ice. For weddings held between September 1st and May 31st, note that Colorado has strict traction laws in place that affect what type of vehicle you are allowed to drive in the mountains. If you are planning a Colorado mountain wedding between these dates, please thoroughly read this blog post so you'll be driving the right type of vehicle. (Don't rely on the car rental companies to fill you in on this; our experience is that they don't.)
