A wedding retreat in Colorado offers the perfect blend of natural beauty, flexibility, and a touch of adventure, making it an ideal choice for couples who want something extraordinary. 

1) Stunning Natural Scenery

Colorado is renowned for its breathtaking landscapes, and the Steel Horse is in the heart of this natural beauty.

Surrounded by the majestic Colorado Rockies, ample grasses and trees, and wide-open skies, the scenery alone makes your wedding experience magical. The Steel Horse offers a dedicated ceremony spot that perfectly frames these awe-inspiring views, ensuring your wedding photos are spectacular.

Imagine exchanging vows with the rugged peaks of the Rockies as your backdrop or celebrating under the expansive Colorado sky. This natural setting adds a timeless and serene atmosphere to your special day, making it a moment you and your guests will cherish forever.

2) Unique Venues & Locations

The Steel Horse is not just a venue; it’s a place where your wedding dreams come to life. This unique mountain destination offers a blend of rustic charm and modern amenities, providing a versatile space that can be tailored to your specific vision. (But, there are dozens out there! A mix that fits any vision.)

Whether planning an intimate indoor gathering or an outdoor celebration under the stars, the Steel Horse’s flexible space can be customized to suit your style. Each space has natural wood finishes, offers expansive outdoor areas, and thoughtfully curated interiors create warm and inviting atmospheres perfect for any wedding theme, from rustic chic to elegant simplicity.

3) A DIY Experience Tailored to You

YOU are in control when planning a wedding retreat.

One of the standout features of planning at the Steel Horse is its DIY approach to wedding retreats. This location offers you the flexibility to plan a wedding that’s truly your own. Unlike traditional venues that offer packaged deals, the Steel Horse allows you to bring in your vendors, caterers, and decorations, giving you complete control over every aspect of your big day.

This DIY experience means you can infuse your wedding with personal touches that reflect your personality and preferences, making it a day (rather, few days) that’s uniquely yours. Whether you envision a gourmet feast, a casual BBQ, or a food truck lineup, the choice is entirely up to you. This freedom ensures that your wedding retreat is a one-of-a-kind celebration that stands out from the rest.

4) Unique Accommodations

A wedding retreat is an immersive, multi-day experience where many of your guests sleep on property with you and your partner for the duration of your stay.

At the Steel Horse, your wedding experience doesn’t end with the ceremony and reception. This place offers a range of unique accommodation options that allow you and your guests to immerse yourselves in the retreat experience fully. For those who love a touch of modern amenities, the guest rooms have private baths, cozy beds, and a stocked coffee bar. While, the well-appointed glamping domes provide a perfect blend of comfort and nature. These domes offer a cozy yet stylish place to stay, with amenities and stunning views.

Additionally, five designated camping spots and full-hookup RV sites are available for those who want to enjoy the great outdoors in a more rustic setting. These diverse accommodation options ensure that all your guests can find a space that suits their preferences, making your wedding retreat not just a day but an unforgettable getaway.

(And, let's not forget the new-addition Airstream!)
