Spruce Mountain Ranch is a modern, rustic space that was designed to give you your dream wedding. From the second you drive through the gates, you will be in a world of luxury, complete with lush gardens and mountainside views. No matter what you need for your celebration, this spot is going to make sure you are taken care of! As a Colorado wedding photographer, I spend a lot of time touring the best venues in the area. Here’s what you need to know about a Spruce Mountain Ranch wedding

About The Spruce Mountain Ranch Wedding Venue

14771 Spruce Mountain Road, Larkspur, Colorado 80118

Spruce Mountain Ranch is a private venue located just 30 minutes outside of Denver. Before this was a venue, this space served as a dairy farm dating back to the 19th century. It was passed down from generation to generation until Tom and Lois Ames purchased it in 1999. To this day, the cattle still graze on the grass while celebrations are hosted amidst the countryside. In addition to this authentic touch, your wedding day will have every luxury possible! 

Details of the Grounds

This venue is packed with locations where you can host every aspect of your celebration. Your day will start out in the fabulous Wedding Cottage in the Lower Ranch, where you will have plenty of space to get ready. Your partner can head to the Wedding Lounge in the Upper Ranch so they can have a space separate from you. 

Next, it will be time for your ceremony. There are several spots you can choose from for this portion. For outdoor services, you can pick from Grace’s Chapel, Trey’s Vista Ceremony Site, or the Mountainside Ceremony Site. All overlook the farmland while keeping the mountains on prominent display. If you want a covered space for your wedding, The Aspen Room will ensure you can still enjoy all the views while giving you a rustic wooden pergola. Inside, you can use the Spruce Room or the Ponderosa Room. Both of these sophisticated spots pay homage to the mountain surroundings with wood and stone accents. 

For your cocktail hour, your guests can head to the Ponderosa Room Courtyard, where they can enjoy cocktails while appreciating this stunning space. 

Finally, for your reception, you can use the indoor ceremony spaces or you can head outside to the Albert’s Lodge Courtyard where your guests will be able to party beneath the stars. This venue is able to host parties of all sizes, offering space for up to 1,200 guests. 

Photography Opportunities

With Spruce Mountain Ranch, I highly recommend you take advantage of the views when it’s wedding portrait time! The ceremony sites are going to ensure you have nature-filled backdrops for your photos. The Ames Patio offers a stone waterfall that you can use for couples’ portraits. You will also want to spend plenty of time in the dressing suites so you can get candid pictures with your party! 

Wedding Details

Throughout your Spruce Mountain Ranch wedding day, there will be a property manager on-site to help you out. You will be able to choose from a list of wedding packages that will include tables, chairs, set-up, and clean-up. You will be able to choose from a preferred list for your caterers so you can build your dream meal.
