My husband and I had the absolute best day and we wouldn’t have changed a single thing! Everything was wonderful and Chris did a wonderful job bartending as well! We got so many compliments and positive comments about literally every part of the day (everyone LOVED Kodie, Mitch, and Chris)! We are so happy with everything! We came out from MN and Kodie was so easy to work with/correspond with in the months leading up to our big day! We had lots of options to really personalize our day to make it our own. Every guest I talked to was complimenting every part of the day and they all had nothing but positive things to say. We had many guests tell us that it was the best wedding they have ever been to! Thank you guys for everything you did for us and we will be forever grateful!

Lorrayne Ranch is an absolutely breathtaking experience! The scenery, animals, and staff are by far the best there is out there!

Kodie is such a gem of a human being and I am so blessed that I got to work with her, she made my whole wedding experience and wedding day absolutely perfect!!! My (now) husband and I are from MN and we wanted to get married in CO and have a small wedding. At the beginning of my wedding planning I found Kodie when she had posted in groups about her mobile bar business K-Bar, in a CO wedding group on Facebook. I went to her website to check out the bars and such because they looked adorable. While I was looking around the website I found that they had recently began to offer micro weddings at their home/land near Guffey CO that couples can make their own day! So I sent a message and Kodie sent me more information and it was an immediate yes!! We booked and got everything going! Kodie responded to emails and texts in a timely manner and we spoke on the phone many times. She is so nice and took time to go over options, give recommendations, and walk me through everything. She coordinated and put everything together for us! We had a big beautiful white tent with sides that we could open or close (in case of weather) with cafe lights, portapotty, yard games, tables and chairs, beverages, and food!! We had a personal pizza party & a nonalcoholic beverage station! Everyone made their own pizza and Kodie cooked it in a wood fire grill! She had so many topping options for people and it was a HUGE hit!! We got to pick an alcoholic beverage package and what bar we wanted (we went with Johnnie Cash)! Chris was a fabulous bartender and he was so fun to chat with! Kodie had so many fun options, decor, and details!! We have nothing but good things to say about our day and there is not a single thing that we would have changed!! I kid you not, we received compliments from every guest and had multiple people tell us that it was the BEST wedding they have ever been to!! Everything was exactly what I had dreamed of and working with K-Bar was really what made it so great! Not to mention the gorgeous views and their donkeys! When we come back to CO for vacations in the future, I will for sure be reaching out to Kodie to meet up because her and Mitch feel like family now! XO-The Utsch’s!

We got married here a little under a year ago and absolutely loved it. Our non-negotiables while looking for a venue were no curfew for music/dancing, having our wedding party stay onsite with us and being able to choose our own vendors. This place hit the mark! You cannot beat the accommodations, it’s such a unique experience for friends and family and we had so much fun getting to stay a few days before our wedding. There are wildflowers all over the property which just adds to the natural bliss and beauty of your big day. The owner and her family are some of the sweetest, most genuine people and we have kept in touch since our big day. We can’t wait to show our kids one day and create even more memories.

Don and Toni are awesome people and hosts. They communicate extremely well and appreciate when you do the same. The space is absolutely incredible. Our family group of 20 didn’t leave the property once during our five day stay. The lodge is overly spacious with amazing views of Pikes Peak in the distance and the wedding space was perfect for our group (but could easily have accommodated larger groups). I would highly recommend TihsreeD for anyone looking for a remote mountain getaway, and we hope to be able to visit again soon!

What Makes Colorado's Wedding Venues Unique?

You'll find perfect settings year-round in Colorado's mountains. The Grange shows off spectacular fall colors with its aspen groves while Della Terra lets you host cozy outdoor ceremonies with snowy peaks as your backdrop.
