Not only are they gorgeous, but they are all within an hour of Denver, which is perfect if you have guests coming in from out of state. So let’s dive into my favorite outdoor wedding venues in Denver!

Woodlands in Morrison, Colorado

Woodlands is a spectacular modern-rustic barn wedding venue in Morrison, Colorado! I love that this venue is run by a family and how close it is to Denver! It is only about 30 minutes away which makes for easy planning and coordination on where your guests will stay. Woodlands has beautiful grounds. This makes for an awesome setting for your outdoor wedding ceremony that looks out on miles and miles of pine trees. They also have an indoor modern barn-style reception area.

Not only does the venue have pretty grounds, but it also has great amenities that make it easier for you and your partner to get ready on site. This is such a great venue for a modern yet rustic wedding day!

Love From My Clients | Wedding Venues In Denver

“Picking a photographer for your wedding is probably one of the hardest decisions to make during the planning process. You want someone you can trust, whose aesthetic matches yours, and a photographer with the ability to make you and your partner feel comfortable in front of the camera, especially for an entire day. Dani encapsulated all those qualities!”

“After meeting her over the phone and then soon after at our engagement session, I immediately knew that she was our match-made in photography heaven. She quickly put us at ease, making an experience that I anticipated to be awkward, really fun.”

“During our wedding day, she found the perfect location for our first look, captured all the best moments in an organic manner, and her style is timeless – one where you can look back decades from now and still feel all the feels”

Wedding Venues In Denver From Dani Haims, An Inclusive Colorado Intimate Wedding Photographer

When capturing weddings, I try to capture a mix of little details and candid moments of my clients having fun with their guests and family! I do this so you can have a really beautiful well rounded wedding gallery that feels genuine and true to who you and your partner are! And, I try to keep the “formal” photos as quick, engaging and seamless as possible! To top it off, I love an epic dance party!! All in all, my main goal is to let people be themselves and enjoy their day. I don’t want it to feel like an all day photoshoot, so I often have a more documentary/photo journalistic approach when possible so that I capture genuine moments.
