Awarded Best of Zola
Spruce Mountain was the best venue we could have possibly chosen. My fiancé was sold from the pictures online and when we toured, I spent the whole time just breathless. We were on the upper ranch with the ceremony on Trey's Vista (stunning), cocktail hour in the Spruce Room, and reception in the Ponderosa Room. Communication with them was easy, Tara was our representative and she happily answered all of our questions and communicated seamlessly without overloading our inbox. She even provided me with a preferred vendors list of vendors they have worked with before which created a great starting place for finding vendors. I was a bit skeptical of their requirement of a Day of Coordinator, but I am so thankful that they required it. We didn't have to lift a finger on the wedding day, I wasn't being asked a million questions, it was fantastic. On the wedding day, our property manager came to introduce herself and told us where to find her if we needed her, there was music playing on the TV in the bridal suite, everything was so clean and perfectly set up to start the day. All of our guests could not stop raving about the venue - the views at the ceremony site, having separate spaces for each part of the day, the mix of indoor and outdoor space for the cocktail hour and reception, and so many said "this sets my bar so high for weddings". If I could do my wedding all over again, I would book Spruce with no hesitation!!

We couldn't be more happy with our decision to have our wedding at Lucky 8. The ranch, view, and surrounding area are stunning (at any time of year). Nick, Emily, and the rest of the staff we're the best vendors we worked for our big day. They are easy to work with, very accommodating, knowledgable, and very hard working. The quality of the amenities provided, from the tent to the restrooms to the bars, is top notch. Lucky 8 has an incredible amount of decorations, furniture, games, and more that you can choose from to really make the venue your own. Nick has some features that we could not find anywhere else, that truly made our day so perfect (horse drawn carriage for our ceremony exit). While we had some weather before the ceremony, the staff at Lucky 8 was quick to adapt and ensure everything went smoothly. They even have some very special and memorable things for the bride and groom to do on their big day that brand their love at the ranch forever.

6mo out from our wedding and still dreaming of the day! From the moment we first reached out to La Joya Dulce, they were on top of it. The team was incredibly friendly and provided great suggestions to help make our special day “ours” and no one else’s! Their "share the love" inventory allowed us to save costs on decorations and other items that are often thrown out after just one use. The venue itself is so stunning, honestly minimal decorations are even needed. They really helped us think through all the little details that we wouldn't have known mattered, ensuring our wedding went off without a hitch. Their team truly cared and wanted to make our day special — from the operations staff who did setup and takedown, to the vendors they recommended, to the owners, everyone was amazing. Our wedding planner was incredible, kind, thoughtful, helped me make decisions I didn’t want to lol. We can't recommend La Joya Dulce highly enough for any couple looking for a beautiful, stress-free wedding experience.
