I cannot thank her enough for helping to make our wedding ceremony and reception a perfect and memorable event. Our wedding was beautiful, enchanting and everything I dreamed it would be, it was stunning! Hillary helped make my dream wedding come true! Their venue is the most perfect place to have a wedding. The prices were affordable, but the quality was priceless. We have gotten so many compliments from friends and family that this was the best wedding they've ever attended. Thank you for an incredible day! We couldn't be more pleased with our experience. I am so glad I chose Morningside Manor as the place for my wedding and reception. It was PERFECT!! Thank You to Hillary and your Das Meyer family!!!

I was in a wedding here last weekend, and it's a pretty cute little place. The gardens around it…read moreare perfect for wedding ceremonies, and there are 3 or 4 gazebos to choose from. The inside is definitely very victorian, and though it's not quite my style, it's pretty and nice. There are two rooms upstairs for the bride and groom to get ready in, downstairs has a kitchen for caterers, a buffet hall area, several sitting areas, and a large room for dancing and setting up tables in. There's also a small deck off of the large room where several more tables can be set up. It made a great spot for the wedding, and I think it would be good for any smaller sized gathering (I wouldn't put more than 100 people in it probably). It's located right next to Das Meyer Bakery as well (same owners I think).

If you are looking for a FANTASTIC wedding planner, Elise of Revel & Bloom is your gal! She was…read moreamazing to work with and handled everything down to the last detail of our daughter's recent wedding in Aspen, CO. (May 29, 2021). Elise was both professional and personal. Our daughter and her fiance' are from Texas and my husband and I live in Arkansas, but were planning a wedding in Colorado. We knew nothing about venues, vendors, etc. She was up front and honest about costs and really did a great job at landing exactly where she had indicated we would. No big surprises. In our opinion she is the best of the best and truly made our experience a magnificent one from beginning to end! The best of the best!!!

We had an awful experience with Elise. We decided to hire Revel + Bloom because they were referred…read moreto us by a mutual friend, but quickly discovered that Elise capitalizes on designs from other event planners and rarely offers original ideas. Her most quoted line is "this is what I've done in the past, so it should work for you". When we challenged her to personalize our wedding to our tastes, she quoted us an increased price, which we agreed to, and we still only received a "mood board" with images that we had previously sent to Elise. As the wedding got closer, her support dwindled and we heard from Elise less and less, leading up to Elise walking away from our wedding the week before it took place (with all of our money). Our team of wedding vendors were shocked at how poorly we had been treated and asked us to let others know. If you want a rinse and repeat wedding, you could consider hiring Elise, but I would highly encourage you to look elsewhere and hire a planner that genuinely cares about creating a memorable experience based on what you dream of, instead of recycling what Elise has taken credit for in the past.

Second to saying yes, hiring the Duchess of Denver was the best wedding decision we made! From…read morespending hours truly getting to know us, to having all the right connections, to gracefully navigating a weather pivot on our wedding day, Alex surpassed every expectation. My husband and I knew we wanted to create a unique, beautiful wedding experience that we, our family and friends would cherish and remember. We'd wanted elements of a traditional wedding weekend but one that felt fun and not like every other wedding we'd been to. We also knew that, as a busy engineer and lawyer, we had very little knowledge about what goes into a great wedding and very little time or desire to learn the intricacies of "the perfect wedding." Alex spent hours asking probing and fun questions. He really got to know our visions, desires and quirks. There were so many times when we said things like "we want a dinner the night before, but not a typical rehearsal reception with people standing around at hightop in a bland conference room." He absorbed all of it and turned it into a fabulous weekend. Alex's encyclopedic knowledge about James and Rebecca was invaluable when my work got super crazy a few months before the wedding. When I told Alex that I could do big decisions, but the little ones, like choosing ribbon color or envelopes for invitations, were hurting my brain, Alex stepped in and planned everything based on what he knew about us. Alex found us a breathtaking space in the Penrose Room at the Broadmoor, he coordinated flowers to match my colorful dress, helped pick perfect delicious meal stations that suited a variety of dietary needs, organized the music and stayed on top of the hotel until their 3,000 square foot Parker suite opened up. Alex interviewed and found the best make-up artist, designed hand calligraphed journals for our guests, and created guest bags that with fun and useful things. I could go on and on! Alex's management of every detail meant the weekend ran smoothly and everyone was happy! He created a bowling night for our out-of-town guests and wedding party, worked with the hotel make sure family members with friction had rooms far away from each other, stocked our bride and groom suite with snacks and champagne, moved us us through the precise schedule of photos, ceremony and reception, and organized a fun and delicious good-bye brunch. When a surprisingly rainy June meant our outdoor ceremony space was a mud-field, Alex pivoted and redesigned a large alcove in the reception space to be a cozy ceremony space. So many of our friends and family have said that ours was one of the best weddings they'd ever attended. Ok, ok, maybe they have to say that, but in this case, I think it's probably true! We would recommend Alex to any couple, especially successful professionals who want to create a first class, memorable experience (but might now have the first clue of how do to it).

If you are looking for the top DJ in Colorado, look no further. DJ Bedz is THAT DJ! Cassidy (DJ…read moreBedz) exceeded my expectations for my wedding in Aspen. We were looking for a fun, talented DJ who wasn't going to press play on a playlist, but actually entertain our guests with his skills. I knew DJ Bedz through social media and his resume blows any other DJs out of the water. He had the reputation of being the top Colorado DJ and I knew I had to book him! DJ Bedz along with the company he books through was quick to respond to all of my emails which eased my crazy bride mode. They also sent out their questionnaire with songs and details of the wedding 60 days before. I didn't realize how much I appreciated this until I saw that other vendors were sending me questionnaires 2 weeks before. At the end I was completely overwhelmed, and it made me realize how amazing the DJ was to have reached out to me so far in advance where I had time to complete the forms. I was hesitant having a Denver DJ travel up to Aspen in fear that they may be late or get stuck on 70. They assured me that there wouldn't be any issues and Cassidy even reached out to me to say he was leaving early to make sure he arrived in Aspen early. There were no issues and he even arrived early. Cassidy made sure to mix songs that kept everyone dancing and wanting more. He even let us go behind the DJ booth and scratch which was a hit with the guests. I had some guests that were star stuck by him and said they have listened to him growing up and were over the moon he was at the wedding. Major brownie points for me! If you are waiting the top of the line entertainment for your event, DJ Bedz is your man!

I gave Jess the theme and colors of the shower and she promptly gave me a few pictures of the balloon design that worked with the signage and theme to choose from. Jess was so easy and fun to work with. On the day of the shower she arrived at the venue at the exact time we had decided on and was cheerful and got right to work assembling the project. The sculpture was just what I had discussed with her and more. My daughter was teary eyed when she arrived at the shower. The balloon sculpture was complimented by so many guests. I would recommend her services to everyone. I also really appreciated how quickly Jess got back to me when I originally inquired about her services. Jess is awesome and I feel lucky to be able to have used her balloon design services. Jess's billing and payment plan was easy, organized and professional to use. I love working with women owned businesses. I highly recommend Daisy Bloom Events.

Hiring Jolene as our Day-of-Coordinator was and is the best decision we've ever made for our…read morewedding. My husband and I couldn't agree more on this. And I am very certain that in years to come when we relive our wedding day, we will still agree that hiring Jolene was the best decision we've made. My husband and I had particular and grand visions on how we wanted our wedding reception to be like. We had specific ideas on the overall look we wanted to achieve for the wedding reception. We were so into planning and outlining all the details of the wedding and that included getting taffeta pintuck table overlays, charger plates, framed table names, etc, that we didn't think much of who was going to execute all our grand ideas for us on the day itself. The restaurant manager had to run the restaurant and and supervise the kitchen on the day itself, and he wasn't able to see to all our specific details on the decor. We were very fortunate to have good friends who offered to help us set up, but at the same time we wanted all of them to enjoy themselves fully and not to have to work on our wedding day. That was when we realized the best thing to do was to hire a Day-of-Coordinator. In came Jolene who was ever so responsive to my emails. We would go back and forth via email up to five times a day, even on a Sunday. That was when I knew that Jolene was the one we should hire. If she could respond to my emails multiple times on a Sunday, I knew that she would be reliably there for us throughout the days leading up to our wedding, and most importantly, on our wedding day itself. We had a meeting with our reception restaurant manager, Jolene, and my husband and I. Jolene brought up questions that we didn't think about and made sure we covered everything. Jolene also took notes at our meeting and very next early morning she sent me a followup email listing the still-to-be completed tasks that my husband and I had to work on leading up to the wedding day. On the wedding day, my husband and I had peace of mind and we were able to enjoy and absorb every moment of our hard work in planning the wedding. We told Jolene how we envisioned specific details to be like on our wedding, and she carried them out for us perfectly. Not only was she there to execute our day-of vision, but she also acted as a point of reference for our bridal party and guests. My dad wanted a podium for his speech and upon arrival he saw that there was no podium. I asked Jolene if she could put one out for us. And the next time I turned around, she was there setting up the podium. Jolene also made sure that there was a smooth transition between events at the reception. After the reception, we received many compliments from our guests on how well organized everything was and my husband and I have Jolene to thank for this. Do yourself a favor and get Jolene as your Day-of-Coordinator. If you're getting married and have put so much hard work into wedding planning like my husband and I did, you should reward yourself by leaving the day-of execution to a true professional like Jolene. She has been there for us from the time we initiated contact and throughout the days leading up to the wedding and most importantly on the wedding day itself. I appreciate all her kind words to us throughout and alleviating our worries of anything that is wedding-related. Thank you so much Jolene!

My wife and I hired Jolene to be our Day-of-Coordinator for our wedding on Nov. 14, 2009. Our…read morewedding was located in an art center, which was basically an empty warehouse space, and required the services of several separate vendors (Catering, Lights, Flowers, Rentals, etc...) to transform it into the wedding-space that my wife and I envisioned. Jolene's help through the entire planning process was simply invaluable -- from design ideas and scheduling event flow, to the minutia that my wife and I didn't even think of. On our wedding day, Jolene showed up early at the venue and made sure that all the "moving parts" where in sync and on time. Throughout the wedding day itself, she kept us on schedule with our timeline and led the day to a resounding success. In hindsight, my wife and I concluded that we could not have pulled off our "from scratch" wedding without her planning assistance, design ideas, and coordinated-execution on our wedding day. We highly recommend Jolene for event planning, design, and day-of coordination.
