Here, couples can get married on the scenic mountain that overlooks the metro and high plains below. Ceremonies are permitted at Crystal Reservoir and Interpretive Outlook. Your wedding photos will radiate Purple Mountain Majesty.
Garden of the Gods Park
There is perhaps not a more ethereal space in Colorado Springs to tie the knot than a Garden created by the Gods. The park is a geological and natural wonder as well as a treasure to the City of Colorado Springs. These jutting red rocks spires burst with different hues of red and orange creating surreal scenic surroundings and backdrop. Complete with a road, hiking, biking and walking trails throughout the park, couples can choose the perfect spot that fits them best. The legacy of the Garden of the Gods Park is that it remains free to all people and will always be open and accessible to the public.
The Colorado Springs School
The 32-acre campus of The Colorado Springs School is located on the former Claremont Estate, built in 1907. The main building, known as the Trianon (formerly called "Claremont"), is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The school is set in the upscale Broadmoor neighborhood at the foot of the Rocky Mountains. Venue rental at The Colorado Springs School includes use of the 3 indoor event spaces, the outdoor terrace, and the grassy area called the Quad.
Cave of the Winds Mountain Park
Another one of Colorado Springs' unique wedding locations is one of the premiere show caves in the United States at 7,000 feet. Canopy Hall is the first and largest room in the cave with many beautiful formations such as stalactites, stalagmites and flowstone. Bridal Chamber is a small room with beautiful formations such as the Cathedral and the Cathedral Spires. The Canyon Rim Pavilion has spectacular views of the cityscape and Williams Canyon below. It's the perfect wedding location in Colorado Springs if you are looking for a place for a wedding reception, corporate party, family reunion and Bar-mitzvah.
The Broadmoor Seven Falls
From proposals to actually tying the knot, it’s difficult to imagine a better venue to celebrate everlasting love than in the midst — and mist! — of the Broadmoor Seven Falls. The amphitheater at the base of the falls can accommodate up to 100 guests. The more intimate setting of the Eagle’s Nest offers breathtaking views. Known as the "grandest mile of scenery in Colorado", this is a stunning spot for photos and for everyone to enjoy nature.
The Wedding Gazebo

A warming hut can also be rented to use as a dressing room for the bride. All ceremony types are welcome in this outdoor wedding venue. The gazebo is handicap accessible.
Royal Gorge Bridge & Park
The Royal Gorge Bridge & Park offers several areas to wed your best friend in style, making it an excellent, but sometimes forgotten, Colorado wedding venue. They offer catering, views and a staff that’s trained to handle events both large and small. You can host an intimate cliffside soiree or an epic bash as big as the canyon. You can even book a romantic cabin for your wedding night, check out their “glamping” options or a longer stay to enjoy the mountains and surrounding attractions.
Cheyenne Mountain Zoo
Cheyenne Mountain Zoo has perfected the art of hosting incredible weddings, including the ability to rent out the entire zoo for your crew after hours.
