LET’S CREATE YOUR DREAM COLORADO WEDDING

Your Vail Wedding Planners

Few towns rival the captivating views of Vail. The grand peaks of the Gore Mountain Range, tranquil Gore Creek, and White River National Forest’s towering trees are a picturesque backdrop for your celebration. It’s also 10 minutes from Beaver Creek, perfect for guests considering both locations for their wedding events. 

We love the many hotel options for guests with shuttles that service Denver International Airport. Once you arrive in Vail it’s easy to get around without a car. The lively downtown area with a European feel is home to restaurants, bars, entertainment, and festivals all summer. There’s also no shortage of activities for nature lovers including skiing, hiking, gondola rides, and fishing. 



Vail Weddings

A WEDDING SET IN BREATHTAKING NATURE

• Include information on your wedding websites to inform guests how to prevent altitude sickness.
• Book early since Vail is a small mountain town.
• Host a full wedding weekend for your guests with a large welcome party and post-wedding brunch. 
• Embrace nature in your design to enhance Vail’s natural beauty and not compete with it.



Tips for planning a wedding in Vail:

- Alex

"My husband and I were planning a destination wedding in Vail, CO for aprx 150 people. We hired Casey as our wedding planner and are so grateful for her and all of her insights during the time leading up to the big day, as well as on our wedding day! She was so kind, understanding, prompt, and organized. She organized the entire outdoor ceremony, made the day of timeline, was our contact point for all of the vendors, but was mainly just a fantastic sounding board for all the little things. She always responded to my emails quickly and professionally. Casey was also able to provide vendor suggestions that I wouldn't have found on my own, and they were amazing! Having Casey and her team present on our wedding day made the entire day run smoothly and without incidents. Thank you Casey :)"

We love the old-world European feel of The Arrabelle at Vail Square located at the base of Vail Mountain in Lionshead Village. Celebrate in the great room with mountain views, a cozy fireplace, and an adjoining terrace. Or gather up to 200 guests under the elegant, clear-top tent illuminated by twinkle lights. Classic, European designs also inspire the overnight accommodations.

Host all of your Vail wedding events in one location at the Four Seasons Resort Vail. Nestled at the base of Vail Mountain, the modern resort can accommodate up to 300 guests. The pool terrace is a breathtaking spot for an outdoor ceremony or cocktail hour with sweeping alpine views and beautiful stone details. Book a room block for family and friends in the guestrooms, suites, and private residences.

We can’t resist the incredible panoramic views of The 10th located in Vail Village. Hop on a gondola ride to the on-mountain venue and take in the sights of the Gore Range and Vail Valley. This upscale venue features floor-to-ceiling windows, an expansive ceremony deck, space for 180 guests, and on-site lodging.

"She helped me and my husband create a dream wedding during one of the most chaotic times in our life. My husband was living and training in Oklahoma City while I lived in Kansas City trying to plan a wedding a preparing for a move. Casey made the wedding process so easy and enjoyable. I honestly have no idea what I would have done without her. I can honestly say I was sad the next day because I knew I would get to talk to her as often. She is a hard and dedicated worker who will become a close friend! I highly recommend Aspen & Ivy and would say they are the best in the business. "

We had our wedding in Vail and it would have never been possible if I hadn't found Casey!
