Location, Location, Location!

Our entire Wedding is taking place at The Boettcher Mansion on Lookout MT in Golden, CO. It is a beautiful place and is a museum now. It is open on weekdays for you to go up and just look around. There are articles and photos and such on the walls detailing the history of the place.

We plan, weather permitting, to be married outside on the patio. If it works out that way, due to the layout of the patio I'd be entering in from the left side for my walk down the "aisle". Here is an image from January of what it looks like (without all our flowers and the chairs and people)

We would then stand here and the guests would all be angled towards us, the focal point. In Colorado it is known to snow but we have our fingers crossed for a beautiful day. I'd be more worried if it rain though, snow I can handle because it would be light at that time of year and they have heated walk ways so there would be no ice.


The reception would then be inside in the Fireside room. its broken into three parts. The capacity is 150 people. We are expecting no more than 65 guests. So we'll have plenty of room. It is going to be a Brunch Buffet. I know people hear Halloween and think crazy things but we want the children to be able to go trick or treating and we don't want to keep our guests out late on a Sunday when they have work the next day.

This is where the buffet will be setup. The curtains will be down to make it all feel more open as well. The DJ will be setup on the opposite side of the room.

I didn't get anymore photos taken that day. I plan on going up when the weather is nicer and getting better shots of the whole place. I also want to learn more about the place before we hold our celebration there!
