With natural scenery that is nothing short of stunning, the state of Colorado is an excellent choice for a destination wedding, particularly if you are an outdoor enthusiast.  Whether you enjoy the warm summers and typical summer activities, hiking and mountain climbing, skiing on the mountains or just taking advantage of the city high life, you can find the perfect destination for your wedding in Colorado.

One of the most unique places in Colorado to host your wedding is the Denver Zoo. As Meeting & Event Magazine's winner of the Meeting/Event Venue 2012 "Best Of" award, the Denver Zoo is capable of handling events with as few as 25 and up to 8000 guests.  There are several different venue sites within the zoo to choose from and on-site catering is available.  With the rental of any event space zoo admission tickets are included in the price for all of your guests.  

Now if ski resort wedding is what you are looking for, Aspen is the place to consider.  There are several resorts located in Aspen that can accommodate weddings.  One of the most beautiful resorts is The St. Regis Aspen Resort.  Not only will you benefit from the stunning and convenient location, but you will be able to have a worry free wedding with your arrangements being taken care of by a St. Regis Specialist. You and your guest can take advantage of services at the Remede Spa or take some time out to visit the nearby historic district to do shop for some of the items on your wedding checklist or take in the arts.  There is also Aspen Meadows Resort.  Voted by The Knott at the 2012 Top Colorado Wedding Venue, the resort can handle just about any size event you can imagine.  Whether you are hosting a small and intimate rehearsal dinner or both your wedding and reception, Aspen Meadows Resort is more than capable of organizing a beautiful event for you.  

If you are looking for a more contemporary venue, The Denver Art Museum is worth taking a look at.  They have several different areas within the museum to accommodate either a small and intimate wedding or a grand affair of up to 500 people.  Sticking with the contemporary theme, Kevin Taylor Catering at the Denver Art Museum is the on-site caterer that specializes in contemporary cuisine.  The museum not only offers the on-site catering, but also complete menu planning and event management.  

No matter what area of Colorado you choose for your wedding, you will be able to find the perfect fit for your style and your budget with the gorgeous natural scenery of the state of your backdrop.
