    As a wedding planner who has worked extensively at The Mishawaka Amphitheatre, I can say they have a great working relationship with vendors and their clients. The value is exceptional for the stunning views and top-notch amenities they provide. They are extremely accommodating and go above and beyond to ensure a seamless event. The Mishawaka team provides a truly wonderful service that contributes greatly to making a wedding day special.

    My husband and I got married at the Mishawaka in June after a long engagement. Gary, the event coordinator, was amazing! I planned the wedding by myself so I had a TON of questions; Gary answered them quickly and kindly and never made me feel like I was bothering him. The event staff at the Mish were accommodating and helpful on the day of the wedding. Our outside wedding turned into an inside event quickly when it started to rain. Meg and her crew were able to pivot and set up the inside for dinner quickly, and when dinner was over and the rain stopped, they just as quickly pivoted to make sure the outside was ready for dancing and the rest of the evenings festivities. The food was delicious, the views and scenery were stunning, having a rushing river and a staggering mountain ridge in the background of my photos is so gorgeous. We got beautiful pictures by the river, and the lighting in the canyon was perfect; no sun in anybody's eyes. Not to mention, The Mishawaka offers a shuttle service, so I knew that all of my loved ones would arrive back in Fort Collins safely after a night of dancing and libations. We had 90 guests, but the outside event space could accommodate many more. The "Confessional Lounge" was a perfect place to do speeches. The sound set up/lighting was perfect for the live band, and after all was said and done, it was affordable! We got married on a Monday, so the price was lower than that of a Saturday, but even the weekend rates were not outrageous. I am so happy we got married at the Mish! And now we can go back for future anniversaries and have a beer by the river - this is not true of most event spaces! Thanks Gary and Meg!

    I work as an event specialist for a local rental company, and we collaborate with The Mish on several events and weddings each year. This venue is exceptional. It is right along the river and offers a great stage for music, an outdoor bar, and indoor/outdoor dining. It's the perfect outdoor venue for any type of event. On top of that, their team is outstanding to work with! We look forward to many more events with them for several years to come!
