2 Penguins Tap and Grill 

5.0

Centennial, CO
  • Up to 600 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $2,000

2 Penguins is not your typical wedding location. We are a Taproom and Restaurant providing quality food, service and beverages. We were in the traditional wedding business under the umbrella business, Panache Catering, Inc, for over 30 years and left it because we eventually were worn out by what it had become. In that time we catered thousands of weddings. The expectations among a some groups of wedding families simply became impossible to meet. If you, too, are becoming worn out by what you are finding in the wedding industry you likely have found a great alternative at 2 Penguins.

Awarded Best of Zola
We set out to find an affordable, functional, and vibey venue for our wedding and we hit the jackpot with 2 Penguins. We toured several places and the event coordinators were by far the easiest to work with. They can customize the menu fully, offer a fully stocked bar, and make it so easy to request and make the day your own. We got married on the patio and it was so green and beautiful. This place is 100% for you if you aren't interested in a traditional wedding vibe, but want a great place to host your special day.

This venue allowed us the space to create a 70s basement. We loved being able to change the ceiling lighting. Bekkah our coordinator was the first person we talked to. The groom said yes to the venue, specifically for the groom’s suit. They had a great time in there before the wedding. Bekkah was on board with every idea we had, she truly allowed me to feel like I had the freedom to run with my ideas. She was so helpful with the set-up of the wedding and her presence really put everyone at ease. She paid attention to our color scheme and it was awesome to get the chair upgrade. She was organized with some great layouts and spread sheets that were even colored coded using the colors of the wedding! Being out of state and a majority of our meetings happening through zoom calls, she made sure I was always involved. Mckiah the banquet captain, seemed to be right there every time we needed anything. She was very attentive, always keeping our drinks full. The serving staff worked quickly and quietly. They were very efficient and discreet. The bartender was everyone’s favorite person. He was very kind by expressing his appreciation for being included with the “tiki” theme. He remembered people drinks and got them ready before they asked. The guard was also just a pleasant person to have around. He was approachable and seemed to enjoy talking to everyone. My brother had his wedding at the Ken Carl location in December of 2022 so we knew the food was going to be good. The family and guests had a lot of dietary restrictions. The vegan/gf peppers were fantastic and having so many salad options was a great way to help accommodate everyone’s dietary needs. The tortellini and the prime rib were tied for everyone’s favorite. However, as there was no prime rib left over, I think it has to be the winner. Bret and Chris, the chefs, did not disappoint. Elizabeth the DJ, truly set the vibe for our 70’s wedding. She found every specific song we asked and check in on us all night. She always made sure we were ready to move on to the next thing and double check to make sure we were all on the same page. Once Tom from Love & Lense, heard about our wedding theme, he was completely on board. Chelsea stopped by the venue early, where she took pictures of each individual table decoration because each setup was different. They were great to have around all evening. They paid attention to my Pinterest board and made sure to incorporate pictures that I had asked for. We won a portrait during the food tasting extravaganza, which was very exciting. I can’t wait to see how all the pictures turn out.

Awarded Best of Zola
We had a wonderful experience working with Brus and the full Spruce Mountain team. They think of everything when it comes to logistics, and we didn't have to worry about a thing from the moment we showed up on wedding day until the end of the night. Our experience touring the venue a year and a half ago, coming back for the Wine & Nosh event, and doing our 30 day walk through all made the planning process so smooth and exciting for us and our families. The multiple ceremony locations are all gorgeous, and we were thrilled to be able to get married mountainside with the natural beauty of Colorado in the background. Our guests loved cocktail hour and the indoor/outdoor dinner & dancing set up. Spruce is truly a 5 star wedding venue because of its natural beauty and the organization/care the team takes in scoping out all the details, like 2 beautiful getting ready suites for the bridesmaids & groomsmen, shuttles to take guests up mountainside, and open air string lights for late night dancing. Spruce is also a popular spot that many of our vendors were familiar with, which made logistics even smoother since our bartenders, caterer, DJ, planner, and florist had all done multiple weddings at Spruce before and had great recommendations on what could work well with our vision. We hope to come back for future events and are so happy to have gotten married at Spruce!

Finding your perfect venue for your perfect day is no easy task, and I had the hardest time finding a venue that combined my husband's rustic taste with my own elegant style. That is, until we found Villa Parker! It had everything we wanted, it was the perfect size for our 70 guest wedding (but we had room for much more than that) and it came with all the beautiful additions and inclusions we wanted! Including the best day-of coordinator a girl can ask for. Communication and organization was a breeze and Villa Parker really takes the guesswork out of a lot of things involving wedding planning! Best of all? They are pet-friendly! So we were able to bring our sweet pup into the mix along with a local rescue to raise money for a non-profit organization! Two puppies were adopted at our wedding thanks to the wonderful people at Villa Parker. This is one gorgeous venue to remember.

Denver Botanic Gardens

Important moments call for impressive settings. From traditional to whimsical, rustic to chic, wedding sites at the Gardens are surrounded by botanical splendor and stunning natural backdrops that will ensure your wedding is beautifully unique and utterly unforgettable. Choose the perfect space or combination of spaces for your ceremony, cocktail hour, reception or rehearsal dinner. With more than a dozen rentable spaces, the Gardens offers a variety of indoor and outdoor venues for anywhere from 10 to 1,200 guests

My husband and I have been visiting the Botanic Gardens for years and it was the only venue we wanted for our wedding day. The wedding day was everything we had hoped for and many of our guests commented afterward how beautiful it was. We also knew ahead of time that we wanted an intimate wedding and the Woodland Mosaic and Solarium as our location. The weather was fairly warm on our date but our guests didn't feel it because the venue has lots of shade with the solarium and trees. It also felt like a more secluded space, which is something that we wanted. Our wedding date was a very popular Saturday in June, and I believe 5 other weddings were taking place at the same time! Because our location felt so private, we hardly noticed. The only exception being the "golden hour" for photography, where we were taking photos in the Japanese garden and carefully maneuvering around other couples also taking photos. If you want to be the only bride in sight, keep this in mind. We didn't care though. Because we had such a small wedding (40 people), we chose not to have a wedding planner or day-of coordinator. I would recommend one for this venue if you have a larger group or if you don't have a lot of helping hands. We had a lot of help from our families on the day of the event - helping set up things like the gifts/card table and brining in liquor in coolers. We also carried out a lot of items ourselves at the end of the night. This isn't a complaint from our end, as we expected to do some of the coordination ourselves. Just keep in mind that if you don't want to have to do anything on your wedding day, be sure to hire someone for that role. Emily was great at coordinating from the Botanic Gardens side. She gave us helpful information when needed, responded quickly, and we also met her about a month in advance to walk through the site, going over details on things like chairs and tables. In addition, you get an hour walkthrough during the day before your event. On the day of, I booked a touch-up room (included in the price). They have a limited catering list and we were happy to use Serendipity Catering for our food, bartenders, service staff, desserts and floral, which made coordinating everything a lot easier! I highly recommend working with Brie and Raven. Another perk of booking this venue is that you can bring in your own alcohol, which can save money. Negatively, it was a bit of work for our families to haul all of this in and out while in formalwear. Depending on which space you book, you are also only able to have acoustic music. We wanted (and hired) a string quartet, so this worked for us. However, if you want to dance the night away with a DJ, you would need to book elsewhere for the reception or book their indoor ballroom. The best surprise for us was a free couples membership for a year to the Botanic Gardens. We are so excited to have the opportunity to spend more time here, enjoying their many event offerings throughout the year. We can't wait to return year after year!

The Ramble Hotel 

5.0

Denver, CO
  • Up to 80 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $2,000

The first hotel in Denver's industrial and artistic RiNo neighborhood, The Ramble Hotel is locally owned and operated. The 50-room boutique hotel houses the marquee lobby bar Death & Co; The Garden, a courtyard bar - all operated by Death & Co. The Ramble Hotel took inspiration from Madame Rambouillet's French Salons of the 17th century, and the Salon's utility in society as not only a platform for the exchange of ideas, but as a catalyst to creating community. As such, each space within the hotel has been designed with the intent to foster meaningful conversation, engagement and interaction among guests.

We had our wedding at The Ramble and stayed for multiple nights leading up to and after the special day. I have zero complaints about our whole stay, everything was perfect. The venue is stunning. The food and drinks were delicious. The rooms were very cute and comfortable. The staff were so kind, friendly, and helpful to us and our guests. They went out of their way multiple times to ensure our comfort and it was so appreciated. Leading up to the day, they were very communicative and so welcoming with each visit we made. Planning the wedding from out of state, they truly took so much pressure off our plate. Tessa and her team absolutely killed it, and it shows in how smoothly they are able to run an event. We’re so thankful they helped create a special day for us.

A true world-class urban oasis, Upper Larimer has a fascinating history that makes it one of the most intriguing wedding venues in Colorado.

Long before cranes and automated construction equipment, these two beautiful structures were built entirely by hand. Brick by brick, shovel by shovel, Upper Larimer was crafted with passion by the early settlers who put their imprint on this growing city over a century ago.

Beautiful location, and super close to all the fun RiNo bars. Thanks!

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I have always been a big fan of wineries and doing wine tasting date nights. This place was beautiful and one of the more service inclusive and budget friendly options we found. They also allowed us to buy our own alcohol and bring it which was a great money saver. They provided our food, bartender, some decor (mostly draping), chairs tables glassware dishes and linens, a bridal suite and venue day of coordinator to help with set up of chairs and venue owned items. Mattie and Katy were the event coordinators and were both super informative and helpful when I would call on a random week day with questions. I think we got a great deal compared to other places and we are happy with how everything turned out. There was one odd little thing with our meals. We had a plated dinner that worked out to about 50.00 per person. When we had some people cancel after final numbers I wanted to see if we would be able to take the food we paid for to go so that we could enjoy it as dinner the next day at our airbnb since we paid for it. While I was told its not something they usually do they did make an exception and box it up for us. I just really hated the idea of 200 worth of food going to waste so we took two meals and we gave my parents the other two who said they were delicious. From our tasting to the night of the dinner the food didn’t taste 100% the same but I saw they got a new chef and think that might have been what the difference as. It was still very good. They did amazing with our request to box up the left over cake for guests to take as favors. The surrounding areas are not very cute but they do their best to cover all of the construction like equipment around them.
