Today’s post is designed to help all of our recently engaged couples and destination brides still searching for the perfect wedding venue.  We are excited to announce that Expedia named Tara Guerard Soiree one of the top wedding planners in the world and we were thrilled to contribute to their Wedding Planners Guide to Wedding Venues.  All photos by Corbin Gurkin.

Our first favorite destination venue is the Hotel Jerome in Aspen, CO

With the contrast of the modern eclectic interiors and the rustic natural landscape, the venue appeals to a variety of wedding concepts. Obviously perfect for those interested in a winter wonderland wedding, but truly so lovely in the Spring and Fall as well!

Our other favorite is a spot right down the way from us, Montage’s Palmetto Bluff.

In addition to the picturesque scenery, your guests can all stay on site within walking (or  biking) distance so it feels like a little getaway for everyone. And, there are different party venue options for hosting a variety of weekend functions. They have a world renowned food and beverage program as well.
