We recommend booking sooner rather than later! Over 5 million visitors come to Estes Park each summer, and every day is planned for weddings at multiple venues.

There are plenty of Inns and Airbnbs to stay at.

Black Canyon Inn: this is where the wedding will take place so it will be an easy walk for whoever stays here :)
