Getting Married In Silverton, Colorado

Silverton is a tiny western mountain town nestled in the San Juan Mountains. In the southwest corner of Colorado this town sits just above 9,000 feet and is a home base for many epic adventures in the surrounding mountains. Due to its access to such incredible scenery it is becoming more and more popular for weddings but at this time still remains a bit of a hidden gem. Tucked on the main street of this old mining town where you’ll feel like you were dropped onto an old wild west movie set, is one of the best wedding venues. 

Best Wedding Venue in Silverton

The Wyman Hotel is the best wedding venue in Silverton, Colorado. Located in the heart of downtown in a historic building you might pass right by it without knowing the luxury it offers inside. The Wyman is a boutique hotel only offering 15 rooms making it the perfect buyout option for your intimate wedding. In addition to a select number of rooms they have a coffee and liquor bar that is not only aesthetic but also truly delicious (I offer high praise to their matcha lattes!) a stunning lobby area and a courtyard. The private courtyard is the perfect space for an al fresco dinner under string lights and their iconic train car offers an authentic backdrop to your reception.

The best part about the Wyman Hotel is its proximity to so many spectacular views so I suggest it is best to utilize the luxuries of the venue for getting ready and your reception but head into nature for your ceremony and portraits. You can either venture to accessible spots by your own car or hire a jeep company to take you to more remote locations. 

Jeeping in the San Juan Mountains for your Wedding


The San Juan Mountains are criss crossed with the most epic 4x4 trails in the country! And with that comes expert guides and outfitted companies with the ability to take you pretty much anywhere you want to explore! They take all the stress out of exploring, you and your guests just get to sit back and enjoy the views. Even for those experienced driving this type of terrain…do you really want to do that technical driving on your wedding day? Or would you rather relax and be completely focused on your partner? And for those with no experience driving OHV trails, you’ll definitely want to leave this up to the experts, especially if guests are coming along. As a bonus, jeeping is also a really unique activity for you and your guests with no effort on your part. I have worked with both Switzerland of America (they’re dog friendly!) and Telluride Outside and they are both great companies that can offer recommendations, keep you safe, and help you have an incredible stress free adventure for you and your guests. 


Having a wedding at the Wyman Hotel paired with exploring in the San Juan Mountains is the absolute perfect combo for a wedding day where luxury meets adventure. After sipping your hot latte from the bar and getting ready in an elegant room, you can head off on your epic adventure jeeping or take a short drive to a meadow completely surrounded by mountains. Here you can exchange your vows with your closest friends and family and capture some incredible portraits. Once you’ve worked up an appetite you can head back to the hotel where your reception awaits!
