North Star Gatherings - Idaho Springs, Colorado

From the moment we toured North Star Gatherings, we knew this was meant to be our wedding venue. The views are absolutely breathtaking and the venue itself is BEAUTIFUL! We got married on 10.12.24 and I wish we could it a million times over. All of the staff, especially Sydney, were so welcoming and helpful throughout the entire process. All of our guests couldn't stop raving about the venue and the views! It feels like the perfect mountain getaway. NSG is on top of a mountain away from any other buildings and noise - it feels so secluded and like you're in your own world! We couldn't have imagined a more perfect setting for our wedding. Highly, highly recommend!!

My husband and I got married at North Star Gatherings in August 2024 and it was everything we dreamed of and more. The venue is absolute perfection - the views from the ceremony deck are gorgeous, and the indoor space is just as stunning. A special shout-out to Sydney, Audrey, and Thea, who were all incredibly helpful and just so genuinely excited for our big day. We truly had the best day of our lives and could not have done it without North Star Gatherings and team.

My husband and I got married July 13, 2024 and we genuinely felt that our wedding at North Star was the PERFECT day. Our guests absolutely raved about the views, the venue and the entire day. The majority of our guests flew in from the east coast and mid west and were totally fine on the shuttles up to the venue. While the venue isn't responsible for food, or wedding planners, their suggested vendors that we chose were amazing. We chose GB Culinary for food, and Milk Glass Productions for planning. There was a heatwave the entire weekend and the venue still felt cool, with the fans on and garage door open. The sunset was absolutely perfect and the staff were lovely to work with. My grandparents could not get over the space and how comfortable they were made to feel the entire day when they needed a bit of extra assistance. I would recommend North Star to anyone looking for the perfect wedding venue. Also, pro tip we did our first dance during cocktail hour on the deck, and it was a hit!

I think we toured just about every wedding venue with a Mountain View in Colorado. Choosing North Star Gatherings was probably the single best decision of our wedding planning.

Sydney really made our experience with NSG special. She answered a bunch of questions for us ahead of time, and even chatted with our vendors separately to make sure they had what they needed. She eased our anxieties around things like transportation and was just so wonderful throughout the entire process.

And most noteworthy - as an LGBTQ+ couple, we felt not just tolerated but CELEBRATED.

We also had a sudden issue when our debit card was stolen and deactivated by the bank right when our final payment was due. They were understanding and worked with us to get them alternate payment method.

Overall, NSG was the dreamiest setting for our day. My brother even said in his toast, “Thank you for having the wedding here.”

5 stars, hands down. We would absolutely recommend getting married here!

I truly have no words to explain how wonderful North Star Gatherings is. Truly the most beautiful place in the world to get married. The venue is beyond gorgeous and our guests were so in awe of the view! We knew the moment we toured North Star that we were getting married there. Sydney was amazing to work with leading up to the event and on the day of. Everything went smoothly the day of. We love love love North Star and hope that we can come back one day.

Truly the most stunning location. Most of our friends and family flew in from NY and were blown away by the views. My now husband and I looked at about 15 venues around Colorado (all within 2 hours of DIA) and this was an easy winner. No real competition honestly, given that the indoor space is just as stuning! The staff here is so, so lovely and quick to respond.

Words cannot even describe how outstanding North Star Gatherings is. The views are unbelievable and the staff was incredibly helpful throughout the planning process and day of! We truly could not have found a better mountain wedding venue if we tried. Guests are still raving about how stunning the venue was. We highly recommend North Star Gatherings to anyone considering booking with them.

Lastly, the reviews from West McKillip, Amber Davies, Connie Conner, and Shaunda McKillip are all pertaining to my husband and I’s wedding. Please know that as the Bride and Groom of that wedding we do not share any of these opinions and their accusations regarding treatment by the venue staff are completely false. There was family tension prior to our wedding and some actions from these individuals the day of the wedding resulted in the mother of the groom being asked to leave. Unfortunately, they are taking things out on the venue and leaving bad reviews instead of speaking with us to try to resolve the family issues privately.

North Star Gatherings is a dream. We're from Chicago but had a big vision of getting married in the mountains. I still can't believe we pulled it off without ever visiting the venue ahead of our wedding day.

The team was lovely to communicate/collaborate with throughout the planning process, recommended incredible vendors who knew the space well, and--day of--made sure everything was set up according to plan.

But the star of the show is, of course, the breathtaking views. It's a truly amazing location. I'm sure there are plenty of venues deep in the mountains, but we gravitated to North Star Gatherings because of its proximity to the Denver airport (all our guests were flying in), its accessibility for family members who aren't up for a hike, and the modern style of the venue itself. It was perfect for us in every way.
