Review of Willow Ridge Manor

Willow Ridge Manor is nestled in the foothills west of Denver, south of Morrison on highway 285. It’s in really great condition – they obviously spare no expense on the maintenance. The bride’s dressing suite is HUGE, with two large rooms and a private bathroom, and they are beautifully furnished, which leads to some lovely...

Review of Victorian House in Heritage Square

Victorian House in Heritage Square is a nice old building, suitable for smaller weddings. There is a large deck, but the ceremony I photographed (Tina & Sean’s) was held on the steps in front of the building. Photography opportunities are good, but not great.

Review of Greenbriar Inn

The Greenbriar is a small establishment north of Boulder. Despite its size, it’s capable of hosting 2 weddings at a time, with two very attractive outdoor ceremony sites and two banquet rooms, as well as a restaurant. It also has a very pretty outdoor water feature for photos. Kristi & Paul were married here.
