My fiance and I are just in the beginning stages of planning, and we are hoping to maybe find a place that let's just bring in our own liquor.  Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas of ceremony/reception places that will let us do this?  We're looking in the Denver area, foothills, etc.  Thanks :)

    Adequate suggestions depend on how many people you plan on inviting...I'd suggest my venue, Boettcher Mansion, on Lookout Mtn, if you have 120 or less.

    Are looking for more outdoor feel or more urban feel ? What is your price range? These are some things that would help us naror down your options.  Here are some ideas you can look into
    Four Mile Historic park, Bontanic Gardens, Butterfly Pavilion, and Mile High Station just to name a few...

    Christie's of Genesee.  You can't bring in your own alcohol, but the package deals they have are spectacular and affordable!  We are going to do a $500 host bar and when the $ for that runs out, the bar will switch over to a cash bar if people feel they need to conitnue drinking.  Depending on how many people you're going to have, it may be less expensive to choose a venue that provides the alcohol/bartending.  We ran into issues with a lot of venues allowing us to bring alcohol, but you couldn't brings kegs (which are cheaper to purchase for large groups) and you had to hire thier waitstaff/bartenders - which is rarely ever cheap, not to mention the liquor liability insurance that is typically required as well.  I know Richards-Hart Estate allows outside alcohol and the liab. insurance was only $50 I think, but your max guest count can not exceed 100.  Sorry I cant be of more help.  good luck, you'll find the "perfect" place in the end!

    Also check out Lionsgate. They have a pretty inclusive optional vendor package that you can add or delete from as needed. You purchase your own alcohol but non-alcoholic beverages are included. Good luck.

    Check out Hudson Gardens if you are looking at a summer wedding, they let you bring your own alcohol and have been super easyto work with.  All of their area will hold 140 easily.
