What is the feel of a Stanley Hotel wedding?

From their site:

The Stanley Hotel proudly features some of the most stunning and unique venues in Colorado for your mountain wedding, from intimate spaces to grand ballrooms to outdoor venues with breathtaking scenery. Our variety of elegant wedding venues guarantees that you will be able to create a truly distinctive event that is tailored to your individual style and one that your guests will never forget!

Vibe: Historic, elegant, old-school hotel. And possibly haunted??

Favorite Part: The outdoor ceremony spot and surrounding gardens feature gorgeous views of the Estes Park mountains and Rocky Mountain National Park.

Overall Impressions: There is a grandeur to the Hotel that makes you feel like you’ve stepped back in time. Many of the spaces pull in dark wood accents that gives the spaces an early 20th century charm.

Where is the Stanley Hotel located?

Iconically located on a hill as you enter Estes Park, you’ll find the The Stanley Hotel at 333 Wonderview Avenue, Estes Park, CO 80517.

Pro Tips for Getting Married at the Stanley Hotel

Rocky Mountain National Park is just minutes away from the Stanley.  If you have time in your day, plan to sneak over to the park for some portraits.  I’d leave at least an hour and half for this to account for driving.

I’d also recommend being out in the gardens around sunset as the light is fabulous and you can get a great overall view of the hotel.
