Della Terra Mountain Chateau

The Della Terra was an absolutely stunning location for our wedding. If you are getting married in Colorado, this is where you want to do it. The pictures of the venue don't even do it justice. Everyone was absolutely fabulous. The owners and staff were especially helpful in getting us lists of vendors that were absolutely fantastic. If I could do it again, I would have my wedding no where else. The only mark down is value, it is an expensive location, however, in my opinion it was worth it!

My husband and I had the best wedding at Della Terra! The venue was not only gorgeous but the people were so fun and easy to work with! They helped plan everything and made our day fun and memorable! It was so nice to come enjoy our day and not have to worry about anything. Our guests were well taken care of and not one thing went wrong the day of the wedding! It was truly an amazing day and we got so many compliments on our wedding! I encourage you to use the vendors suggested by Della Terra as well! They have people the work with on a regular basis and they all work so well together! Della Terra is hands down the best place for a mountain wedding in Estes!

A better venue, better staff, and better service does not exist in Estes Park. We extensively reviewed each available option and Della Terra provided unmatched splendor. Our wedding would not have been the same if we had went anywhere else. The wedding staff make the difference.

Della Terra did make my dream wedding come true. They took care of everything, however I felt like they were a bit rude sometimes. We paid really good money and felt like we had to fight for a lot of things. In our honeymoon room the next morning, we heard the owner giving a tour and talking bad about what we decided to throw during our exit, even though they approved it. Little disappointed that they were so picky when we were paying them so much. The walls are extremely thin as well. Other than that they gave great service and we had a good time. Probably wont be going back though for a second stay.

Della Terra is an amazing, picturesque setting for a Colorado wedding no matter what the season. Our wedding was in the winter, and it felt like a fairy tale, down to the elk and bighorn sheep wandering the property. From our first tour to the day after the wedding, the staff were friendly and accomodating. This place was built solely for weddings and they only allow one wedding per day, so the bride and groom are treated like royalty. Tess was our coordinator for a Friday wedding and she was in control of every detail, which made us feel so relaxed. They really take all of the stress off of the bride and groom on the big day and they have wedding planning down to a science. You don't need a wedding planner if you get married here! Della Terra is worth the price, and then some.

Tess and everyone else at the Della Terra made our wedding perfect! We had a destination wedding, and the staff was very helpful in assisting us. The venue is absolutely gorgeous. We got married in the off season on a week day, so that saved us some money. We highly recommend getting married at the Della Terra and can't wait to visit again!

Della Terra Mountain Chateau provided the PERFECT venue for my mountain getaway wedding. This gorgeous chateau is nestled up in Estes Park overlooking Rocky Mountain National Park. It has stunning views and wildlife, not to mention the chateau is just breathtaking. The guests at my wedding are still gushing about how beautiful the wedding was at this venue.
Not only is Della Terra breathtakingly beautiful, but they provide many services to make your wedding fantastic, and run smoothly. I got married on the off-season and during the week, so it was also very affordable for us, especially considering all that is included with the price. This place is a true steal. They are very flexible, and don't give you time restraints other venues will give you. If you book, the place is yours for the day and they will run it exactly how you want it. The other half of the chateau is a sort of bed and breakfast with romantic honeymoon suites that have all you could want, and two nights in a suite are included if you book a wedding!!! We will definitely be returning on our anniversaries! The wedding planners they have at the chateau will meet with you and help you plan out the day. They will decide on all the little details of your day with you, and come up with a timeline so that your day runs smoothly. I don't know what I would have done without the ladies who made my wedding happen.
They also feature many other amenities that make this place truly perfect. I will never forget our beautiful wedding day! My one complaint about Della Terra is that the ladies who work all the magic and put your wedding together can sometimes be hard to get a hold of. I understand they are busy out and running weddings quite a lot, I just wish there had been someone else in the office who could have answered some questions for me in a more timely manner. Overall, Della Terra is a true steal. I would choose this stunning chateau again in a heartbeat. If you don't get married her

Pam & Tess at Della Terra were an absolute pleasure to work with in coordinating our wedding at their beautiful venue, Della Terra.

It was a joy to work with the entire staff at Della Terra. Pam was an amazing coordinator and helped us have everything planned for the day. We felt so comfortable and at home that we certainly did not want to leave. The Della Terra is a beautiful venue with so much charm. We are so fortunate to have been able to have our wedding at such an enchanting venue with an amazing staff of professionals.

Della Terra was an incredible venue for our October 8, 2012 wedding. The staff was fantastic, and extremely professional. Our guests loved the setting, and our ceremony was graced by an elk, several deer, and a few wild turkeys. We could not have asked for a more magical setting.

Beautiful place and perfect day made for a wonderful wedding. Great people to work with.

The Della Terra was a wonderful and beautiful facility to hold our wedding. Everything was so beautifully done and everyone was a pleasure to work with and we had complete confidence in them that everything would be taken care of as we had wanted. Working with Tess was a wonderful experience she was very professional and fun as well to have worked with. We would recommend Della Terra to all our friends.

Della Terra is absolutely stunning, and is worth every penny! We saw Della Terra in a wedding magazine and knew we had to see it. The venue does not disappoint! The owners and staff take pride in their establishment and make sure it is absolutely stunning for every event. We could not have asked for a better setting than Della Terra for our wedding. The rooms are absolutely amazing, the breakfast is the best we have ever had at a hotel, and the staff makes sure the bride and groom and the guests are taken care of at all moments. Our wedding day was absolutely perfect, and a big thanks to Pam, and all staff! We did not hire a wedding coordinator, and felt we didn't need to thanks to the the staff at Della Terra. Everyone knew what they were doing, including our vendors thanks to the guidance from the staff. The ambience and views on the day of our wedding could not have been better. We were so lucky to have been married at Della Terra, and words cannot describe how amazing the venue is! Every single detail about the venue is perfect!

“My husband and I can not say enough about what a magical venue Della Terra was for our wedding. Our family and friends are still raving on about the chateau, decor, venue and the atmosphere created by the wonderful staff and the majestic surroundings. Every detail, every question and every special request was handled in such a professional and friendly manner to make our every dream come true. We couldn’t have imagined a more perfect place to have had our wedding. It was truly a fairytale.” Brooke Ewing

Girls, RUN--don't walk--to book your wedding at Della Terra. I am a former event planner, so I approached my wedding venue hunt with very high standards, and Della Terra surpassed them all. Della Terra's location is pristine: nestled up against Rocky Mountain National Park, which ensures both beauty and privacy. The owners are previous contractors, so the entire chateau is gorgeously built and is kept looking brand new, designed entirely with weddings and anniversaries in mind. The suites each have a unique theme and are luxurious beyond belief - a true treat for your guests and for you. Della Terra is staffed by the family who built it, so they have deep love for the place and a great deal of experience conducting weddings there. Truly, their customer service is tops. I could rave for ages about Della Terra, but I'll try my best to sum it here: *gorgeous* mountain location, and it's all yours the day of your wedding (no other weddings taking place there, and there are no random people wandering by your wedding); the best onsite staff anywhere, hands down--kind, patient, knowledgeable, well prepared, helpful, and calm under fire; beautiful guest suites; keen weather radar onsite for monitoring the temperamental CO weather--and umbrellas for all guests should you choose to stay outside during rain (like we did), or a great indoor backup plan in case you'd like to move your ceremony inside (and, you don't have to make that final decision until an hour out from your ceremony!); an ultimate, prevailing feeling of intimacy; and, talk about photo ops! I only wish they had more guest suites onsite, and if you book your wedding there, immediately book the cabins onsite. We were too late for those, and I wish we'd been able to snag them for our extended family. My husband and I couldn't have asked for a more incredible wedding venue. Our guests are still raving about it 8 months later. And, we can go stay there on our anniversary should we ever wish to. LOVE THIS PLACE!

Everyone raved about how amazing our venue was. The views were spectacular, and the service was great. I'm convinced it's the most beautiful wedding venue in Colorado. Thank you, Della Terra, for making our day perfect!

Della Terra is amazing! Not only is it one of the most beautiful places, the staff is so on top of everything that you don't have to worry about a thing!

Most amazing place to get married!!!! The Della Terra staff are so attentive. I don't think there is any way they could have provided better service. Pam and Darrel were one step ahead of our wedding all day long. They anticipated things we needed long before we even thought of them, therefore, the day was seamless. Our family and guests loved the setting, very romantic!

What an amazing place. Service was wonderful, place is amazing!

Della Terra not only made the process of planning my wedding amazingly simple but they also worked with me and my groom when the weather did not want to work with us. They rearranged the reception hall to hold my wedding inside when it rained and in the hour we had set aside for cocktails re-set the reception hall so everything ran smoothly. You not only get a wedding hall and reception area but also a person who is with you the entire wedding to help with anything. They do cost a little more then some vendors but if you are looking for a storybook wedding without the hassel that comes with it they are worth every penny.

Della Terra Mountain Chateau is an amazingly beautiful venue in a great location! But, even more importantly, their staff and service is unsurpassed. Prior to our wedding, they were very helpful in the planning process and making sure that we had everything that we needed or wanted. On the day of the wedding, everything went so smoothly. Pam and her staff had thought of every detail, so that I did not have to worry about anything and could ENJOY the day!! Everyone there was very friendly, professional, and helpful. We did not have a single bad experience and there was nothing that we can think of that would have made the experience better. I cannot recommend Della Terra enough!!

I am so thankful we picked Della Terra for our wedding and reception. They were very organized, easy to work with, and cared about what we wanted. We had a beautiful day! The venue is amazing and the suite you get to stay in is very comfortable and romantic. Getting married at Della Terra is a dream come true.

Wow! Della Terra Mountain Chateau was the most amazing and beautiful venue for our wedding. Pam and Darell did an amazing job to make sure that our wedding was everything that we wanted it to be. They are very organized and everything was absolutely perfect! Although a little more expensive than other venues, you can not beat the great service and wonderful scenery. we had our ceremony outside and they made sure that our guests stayed comfortable with cushions and offered blankets to those that were a little chilly. I look forward to returning to Della Terra to stay in their amazing suites and relax in the private hot tub. Although we did not have time for a couples massage, I definitely see us getting one next time we stay there. My guests have not stopped talking about how breath taking Della Terra was and also how friendly the staff was. If you choose Della Terra for your big day, I can guanantee you will not be disappionted.

This was the most perfect wedding venue in Colorado. They were very professional and there for us when needed. On the day of the wedding they acted as my wedding planner and I did not feel like I needed to hire one. All the staff was extremely friendly and helpful if anything was needed. I would definitely recommend this to someone planning a wedding in Colorado.

What a beautiful location to have a wedding/reception/honeymoon. We were married at the Della Terra in February 2012...and WOW, they exceeded our expectations in every respect. Pam and Tess were amazing in their ability to offer great insight to the "small details" and helped us put together our wedding in less than 90 days. The breakfast was amazing everyday, and every single person on the staff was extremely friendly and personable, we loved the entire experience and look forward to returning for anniversaries and vacations! Thank you Della Terra!!

Upon arriving at Della Terra for our initial tour, I knew this would be the place we got married. This mountain château is stunning. The floor to ceiling windows and exposed beams allow you to feel like you are in the midst of Rocky Mountain National Park even in the middle of winter. Our ceremony took place inside the Celebration Place and was beautiful. The afternoon sun was gleaming in on us through the whole ceremony providing the most beautiful lighting. My dress shimmered just like I had dreamed. I couldn’t have imagined a more beautiful place to hold our winter ceremony.
After the ceremony was over Della Terra’s fabulous staff took over. They completely transformed our ceremony place into the lively reception venue. The tables were all placed perfectly and every last candle was lit and placed without a single guest or wedding party member having to lift a finger. Because we were doing family pictures right outside many of our family members were mingling inside to stay out of the cold while they waited for their turn in pictures. Della Terra’s staff never asked them to move but decorated right around them, making them all feel very comfortable. This whole transformation took place in under an hour allowing our reception to move right along. My husband and I were even able to join our cocktail hour upstairs without a worry of whether the centerpieces were being set-up correctly. Pam had everything perfectly mapped out for us. The room looked incredible as our guests took their seats for dinner.
Before the wedding weekend even began, Pam and her staff were helpful in answering all my questions along the way. They run each wedding extremely efficiently. I was planning my wedding from a far and they were able to answer all my questions through emails and calls back and forth. Once we arrived on Friday before our Sunday wedding they put every worry to ease by completely being at our service. Pam and her whole family made sure we had everything we needed all weekend long. They made us feel like we owned the place the entire weekend. We were able to use the salon, theater, and pretty much every other available space in the Château throughout the weekend. They are truly an amazing staff. They want your day to run as smoothly as possible and don’t want you to worry about a thing. We felt completely ease and were able to truly enjoy our time spent there.
Our guests many from out of town could not stop mentioning how beautiful Della Terra is. All who stayed on the property were amazed at the wonderful service. The Château suites are beautifully decorated to represent the various elements of the earth and come with a delicious gourmet breakfast. The cabins are perfect for those family members and friends who would like to be close to the action but would like to stay together. They are warm and cozy for all who stay here. This venue has truly thought of everything. If you are considering having your wedding here Pam and her staff come highly recommended. We absolutely loved them and will be back for...

The Della Terra was absolutely wonderful! I was worried because I didn't have a wedding planner for my wedding, but the Della Terra took care of everything. The entire night moved so smoothly thanks to the Della Terra team, and I couldnt have been more happy. 100% worth every penny!!!

You couldn't ask for a prettier place to hold your wedding. The staff at Della Terra was extremely nice and helpful and they helped to make our day perfect. They have really thought of every detail to make Della Terra the perfect place for a wedding, from the getting ready rooms to the ceremony site to the reception room. A beautiful venue that got us many many compliments and the nicest staff.

Stunning! This is such a treasure -- I cannot imagine not having my wedding at Della Terra! The staff is so helpful! Tess made sure everything went off without a hitch. If someone passed up a chance to host their wedding here, they would be a fool!

Della Terra truly made our wedding magical! My husband walked into it and said, "this is it." No other venue could even compare! The staff went out of their way to make sure we did not have to worry about a thing! Several of my guest told us it had been the best wedding they had ever been to! The setting was gorgeous and the staff were amazing!

Our wedding at Della Terra was everything we could've ever imagined and more! The venue itself is a breathtaking escape from reality, tucked away in the mountains of Estes Park. Any pictures online do not do it justice. When youre there breathing in the fresh mountain air, surrounded by lush trees, it's incredibly stunning. From the moment we did the first walk through with Pam, we knew it was something special. Pam and team have put their hearts into this venue, down to every last gorgeous detail. The staff was not only accommodating and pleasant to work with, but such a fun group as well. They felt like family by the end of our stay. The private suites that we stayed in before and after the wedding were so incredibly luxurious, they truly made the entire weekend feel like a dream. We were able to put our creative touches where we wanted, but for those items that were less of a priority, they made very efficient for us. We were able to utilize some fantastic local vendors, which Pam's team worked seamlessly with. I would recommend Della Terra Mountain Chateau in a heartbeat!

We had so many people tell us that this was the most beautiful wedding they had ever seen. The place is so peaceful and absolutely gorgeous, our guests were in awe. The owners (a family) are very friendly and professional, they take pride in their venue. They are extremely clean & neat. We truly felt like we had a fairytale wedding for our daughter, she was so happy, it was above her expectations. The honeymoon suits are amazing, the salon was so nice. They do one wedding a day so that the bride and groom the venue all to their selves & that was so nice. It is very nice and secluded. I can't say enough... My only issue was that it is hard to find the entrance, but we added balloons & it helped.

To begin, Della Terra is a spectacular venue. It has beautiful mountain formations as well as aspen and pine trees surrounding the gorgeous chateau. It provided more than I had hoped for. Especially because I was not only the bride but also the planner, it was great to have the guidance of Pam, whose expertise was so appreciated. She orchestrated the processional and made sure that each component of my day went smoothly. Darrol, also, was spectacular. Della Terra is family owned and operated, so you have people who look at this place as more than a job, it is their pride and that shows. Everyone had a great time here and really enjoyed the setting. The best part is that the chateau also provides lodging so we will be able to visit again, and see our aspen saplings that we planted as our unity ritual (a tradition that the chateau suggested).

Della Terra is the ultimate wedding location. The staff is completely dedicated to making your wedding day run perfectly, and they make you feel like the only bride and groom in the world. There are no other weddings there on your wedding day, and the whole venue is set up for weddings. They are pros at weddings, and I had the perfect wedding there, better than I could have ever imagined. This is the best place to get married, and if you get married on a weekday, the cost of the venue (and of many other vendors) is significantly less! If you are looking for an extremely classy and elegant Colorado wedding location, the Della Terra is the place for you! It is a breath-taking location, and the people there are wonderful!

Della Terra was awesome. They made my fairy tale wedding come true.
Everything went smoothly and they were flexible, friendly and accomodating.

We got married at Della Terra on a Monday, so we didn't pay as much as couples who got married on the weekend did, but we didn't have any less attention or help with our wedding than they did. My husband (then fiance) and I felt like Pam and all the rest of the staff at Della Terra were ready to help us at every step of our planning process. I never had any problems getting in contact with them when I needed something and Pam even called me once to make sure we had our walk-through/rehearsal date and time down.

I knew for sure that Della Terra was the right place to get married during our walk-through. The venue is beautiful, which is easy to see, but we couldn't believe everything we were getting from Della Terra for what we were paying. It might be a "lot of money", but I wouldn't say it's expensive because of everything you get. You're the only couple there that day and all the attention is on you. When we arrived for our rehearsal the morning before the wedding, I was expecting to have to direct that myself, with my family's help, but Pam came down to direct the rehearsal on a big wedding day for her. I didn't expect her to do that and I was so glad I had her there to help us with that! While I was getting ready on the day-of, I saw Pam multiple times during the day and she always asked how things were going and told me that if I needed anything, to let her know.

Everything for our wedding went smoothly and without a hitch. The staff were great while we were getting ready at making sure we had everything we needed. They brought us water, iced tea, and coffee, which was great to have with our snacks that we brought. While we did the set-up for the reception hall ourselves, we were given a go-to person if we needed any help. Everything was ready for us when we got there, so we were able to set up for the reception early to get it out of the way.

My husband and I spent the day after at Della Terra as well. Since there's a wedding every day during the summer, I expected that we would be "yesterday's news". When we came back from a drive through RMNP, the staff was excited to see us and wanted to know how our day had been. Later when we came back from dinner, we ran into Pam. She asked how the day after was and was happy to send us up a bottle of wine when we asked for it, even though she was wrapping up that day's wedding. We always felt welcome there, before, during, and after our wedding.

Thanks so much Della Terra for everything! We'll definitely be back, but I think we'll stop by sometime outside of wedding season to enjoy some snow. :)

Della Terra was a fantastic venue for our wedding. All of the staff (special thanks to Pam, Audrey, and Darell) made us feel like our wedding was the most important event to ever take place. They are extremely organized and helpful in the planning process as well as the day of the wedding. We got married on June 19, 2011 and also had our rehearsal dinner onsite at the Hummingbird Deck on June 18. Pam and Darell did an incredible job of making sure we had everything we needed both during rehearsal dinner and on our wedding day. It seems like Della Terra was designed to address all of the details and mitigate any problems that might arise on a wedding day. For example, I never wear makeup so have no makeup remover... they provide makeup remover in the suites. My hairstylist also really appreciated having the salon to work in onsite, rather than trying to do hair in a hotel room. Breakfast was delicious and they have a decent selection of wine and beer. One of the kegs we ordered broke, so the bar manager gave us the equivalent in bottles, which was nice because it gave our guests more choices. It is not a cheap place to get married, but given the level of service, I think it is worth it, especially if you are not hiring a wedding coordinator. I gave 4.5 instead of 5 stars for responsiveness because my husband said it took a really long time to get beers down to the Man Cave on our wedding day... otherwise they were great. I gave 4 instead of 5 stars on flexibility mostly because there are strict rules about when events need to begin and end as well as liquor in the chateau. These rules are completely understandable, however, given Colorado liquor laws and also to be courteous to other guests and weddings for the following day in the chateau. To sum up, our wedding was perfect, all of the staff were fantastic, and I would strongly recommend this venue as a perfect balance between being in nature (lots of deer and elk wandering around) and having a fancy, formal place to get married.

I would recommend Della Terra to anyone. We got married there last May and our wedding was memorable for not only my husband and I but also for our guests. They still talk about how beautiful our wedding was today. We just celebrated our one year anniversary at Della Terra. The rooms were amazing as well as the service. Della Terra surprised us with a complimentary bottle of champagne on the night of our anniversary. It's amazing how Pam and the staff still make you feel special, even after our wedding.

Della Terra Mountain Chateau is absolutely amazing. Beyond its beautiful location and incredible building, I felt that the Della Terra staff went above and beyond to make my wedding day a dream come true. Not even the snow stopped them from fulfilling my dream of wanting an outdoor ceremony. They gave all of my guests umbrellas, pillows and blankets. It was so perfect and I wouldn't do it any other way. I wish I could go back and repeat the day. Love the salon for the girls to get ready in and the theater room for the boys. It doesn't get any better than the Della Terra! Thank you for EVERYTHING!

First and foremost let me say our wedding there was absolutely beautiful. It couldn't have been more perfect. We did however have some minor issues. One of which was finding a caterer. Della Terra requires that the caterer be one they have approved. We had trouble finding one they approved of that was in our budget after spending the money for the venue here. I had some caterers tell me they would not go through the hassle of being approved because it was not worth their effort. I also had some trouble maintaining communication with them as I was trying to plan my wedding there from Texas. In the end though it turned out beautiful and our suite was perfect at the end of the perfect day.

Fabulous! If I had to do it all over again, I would rebook in a heartbeat. The staff made everything so easy, fun, and comfortable. The price was well worth the included services. The only thing I would have done differently is book a massage while we were staying there. We will be back for anniversaries for years to come!

Could we possibly rate them higher than a FIVE! Brides....set your date now and make it notable not only for yourselves but for your entire wedding party and guests! What a venue! We got more than our monies worth for all of the categories noted....as well as anything that was needed at any time. As an MOB we could not have asked for more. Like I said,BOOK IT NOw! This chateau will soon be on a waiting list basis once all the knowledgeable brides make their dates!

I couldn't ask for a more beautiful wedding day, the weather was perfect for a mid september wedding. Our guests did have some trouble finding the location and a few found the lodgeing cost to steep. However being in estes gave them a lot of options for lodging needs. Audrey was amazing to work with on our day she truly made sure things flowed. Not sure how she bribed the wildlife to add to the beautiful scenery during our ceremony, but they where an amazing bonus. The new patio addition was perfect for our cocktails and the bar was amazing with working with our ideas and needs. Greg and Mike where wonderful with helping us get internet hook up to the outside ceremony site for our family internationaly to be able to skype in and be apart of our speacial day.

Della Terra is so beautiful. Everyone said my wedding was breathtaking. My grandmother said " It made me want to get married all over again."
My only suggestion is to have a place for the bride and bridal party to change other then renting a room. I had to have myself and my bridemaids get dress in our suite. My other suggestion is that the Hair salon should be included and not for rent. The chateau is so breathtaking however it is pricey. The staff is wonderful and makes the whole event so worth the price. They really make you feel like a princess.

Della Terra provided our absolute dream come true wedding. I cannot speak highly enough about how happy we are about how our wedding turned out. From our first visit, we were extremely impressed by the beauty, attention to every detail and friendliness of the owners (a family). For example, they took the time to show us each and every cabin available on site available for guests to stay in. The location and venue itself are simply breathtaking. They have considered every possible detail to ensure that everything runs smoothly and beautifully. So many guests have told us that our wedding was the best that they have ever been to. It is on the expensive end, but in the end you get what you pay for. I think it was well worth it. I think they will be THE place to have a wedding as more and more people are finding out about them, and I expect they will be booked well in advance in the upcoming years. I can't wait to return and stay in one of their amazing suites for our future anniversaries. My only <5.0 is responsiveness because they aren't always the easiest to get a hold of via email, but with phone there is no problem whatsoever.

Fantastic is all that comes to my mind. Beautiful location. Although the price seems high, when you compare it to other venues, it is by far the best for your money. Pam and the staff were terrific and flexible. All of our guests were amazed by it's beauty. The rooms were very unique and unlike any other room you would stay at for your wedding. We will be back for our anniversary!

This place is simply amazing-- I think the other reviews cover it all.

Della Terra is an amazing venue. Estes Park has been a special place to me since I was a little girl and my husband loves the mountains so this was our ideal venue. Pam, the wedding planner, definitely knows what she is doing, as does the rest of the staff. You don't have to worry about a thing with these guys. You'll pay a pretty penny for their services, but their services are above average. Our guests loved every minute of our wedding, just as we did. We can't wait to go back for future anniversaries! Such a beautiful place from the inside out.

This place couldn't have been more perfect! It has to be the most beautiful site! Most of our pictures look like they couldn't be real. Great place, great people (Pam and Darrell) and I couldn't be happier!

I couldn't have asked for ANYTHING better! Pam at Della Terra is the most wonderful person to work with and every person goes out of their way to make your day perfect! I would highly recommend Della Terra to anyone but book now because I hear they are already booked for next summer!

We just had our wedding at Della Terra on March 21, 2010, all I can say is WOW!! My guests had nothing but wonderful things to say about the venue and their staff. We had our ceremony, and afterwards had a cocktail hour, while Pam and her staff flipped the ceremony space for the reception. Everything was perfect. I don't think you can find a better location in the mountains, the entire property is spectacular, and having the cabins on site made the event even better because my family could stay very close to us. The suites are to die for, I felt completely pampered while I was there. I would HIGHLY recommend this location for any size wedding, big or small...and the best part for us, we can go back there on our anniversary and stay in the same suite as we did on our wedding night!!

Della Terra is such a beautiful place for a wedding. The staff is so helpful and friendly. The rooms are amazing and we can't wait to go back!

The PERFECT VENUE!! From the lighting to the wild animals that catch your eye (we had mountain sheep everywhere). This place is amazing. The lighting outside is perfect streaming through all the beautiful trees. Not to mention the suites custom made. Gorgeous!! I never thought a place could make my wedding special but the Della Terra is and was just that! Anything you need or want they have.

Della Terra was THE perfect place for us to get married and I would recommend it to anyone AND everyone!!! The natural beauty of the venue is absolutely stunning for the bride and groom, as well as all of the guests! It has a very romantic 'old world' feel that WOWed our guests!! From the cobble stone path, to the dramatic, gorgeous entrance, as well as the state of the art luxury suites, it truly is a dream world. The outdoor ceremony site is so unique and perfect there was nothing more I could have asked for.... and the staff, oh how much I love the staff! My husband and I were the very first ones to sign the contract when the Della Terra was a pile of dirt (literally), and every time we went to the Della Terra the staff was absolutely amazing.... and SO caring about making us happy. On our wedding day nothing changed. They were all just perfect. If you have a tight budget, do not worry! The Della Terra is so naturally stunning that very minor, if any, decoration is needed!! Easy and effective way to cut the costs.
uniqueness, huge scenery, natural, old world stone feel, and romance.... PICTURE PERFECT is the Della Terra. A+.

Della Terra was a gorgeous place to get married and the staff was so generous with their time. We appreciate everything they did and couldn't have had a better experience.

Della Terra is a beautiful venue in Estes. Every detail has been thought out. The guest rooms - each with their own hot tub, and amazing bathtub is an awesome place to spend your first night as husband and wife. The cost is definitely high, but your guests will be amazed at the site. They also have a bridal salon where you and the girls can get ready - and bring any makeup and hair artists that you like.

Included in the rental fee is the venue, chairs, tables, and linens. Everything else is extra (food, booze, china, flatware, etc). We started to feel nickled-and-dimed towards the end with every extra cost.

We loved Della Terra! It's absolutely gorgeous!!! It is very pricey but we decided it was worth it. All of our guests have been raving about how beautiful the venue was. The Della Terra wedding staff can be unresponsive in the months leading up to the wedding, but the weeks before when it's crunch time they were very responsive. Pam is a total sweetheart. They are willing to do whatever you want to make it your day. The rooms are also amazing. The private two-person hot tub on our balcony was amazing after the reception was over!! I completely recommend Della Terra.

If you are looking for a Fairytale Wedding, Della Terra is the place to go! With natural beauty, stunning views, gorgeous one-of-a-kind suites, & exceptional service, this venue is breath taking! The Groom and I have a VERY large family & needed a place to accomodate 300+ guests. Although this was a lot larger size than the average weddings held at Della Terra, Pam & her crew, accomodated all of our guests . . . . thinking of EVERY detail to make our night comfortable, functional, & fun for all! We were also able to hold our large, 75 person rehearsal dinner, right there on site, at no additional cost. This saved us time, a lot of money, & hassle. Having our wedding at Della Terra was the best decision we could have made!

Della Terra is a beautiful, new venue. The setting is perfect for a wedding, with breathtaking views. The staff is very helpful and will provide everything that you need. They have rentals available there if you prefer. Although it is on the pricey side, it is definitely worth the cost.

Della Terra is a beautiful location located in Estes Park, CO . Pam is very helpful during the planning process and did I mention how amazing this place is!

My bride and I got married at the Della Terra. Actually we were the second couple to get married there. We can not say enough great things about the venue and the staff. Pam and her staff were amazing at taking care of us, our party and our guest. It has been four months and our guest are still talking about our wedding. The day of our wedding it snowed, rained and was windy. The staff at Della Terra supplied blankets for the elderly guest that were there. We didn't even mention it to them. They were prepared to bring the ceremony inside up until the last second when we decided to go with it outside. God shined on us an provided a beautiful ceremony hour. The reception was amazing inside with a live band that had everything they needed. The Della Terra was built for weddings with everything in mind. The staff is amazing and the suites are incredible. It is one of the most romantic places with breath taking views of the mountains. My wife and I would not have changed anything and felt that we could not have been treated any better. Thank you to Della Terra and Pam/Sandy/staff for an unforgettable day.

The Della Terra Mountain Chateau in Estes Park, Colorado is a unique addition to the many mountain wedding venues in Colorado. Though they just opened their doors in June 2009, the artfull planning and earth concious development of the property has established the Chateau as a must have wedding venue. Della Terra prides themselves on how they were able to preserve most all natural elements during construction. This dedication shines through in the overall experience at Della Terra. The romantic old world stone Chateau is perched alongside granite cliffs and pines that peer over the western continental divide.

As photographers, we never grow tired of the endless opportunites for unique photos both inside and out at Della Terra. The bride will enjoy a dedicated salon upstairs for her and bridesmaids to get hair and make up done. The luxury suties are tastefully decorated and offer ample light for portraits. The groom will have a chance to get ready and relax with his groomsmen in the theater room downstairs. The lodge room has a three-sided fireplace and waterfall that makes for a great spot for candid shots with the bridal party...

Amazing Venue... Picturesque views and an amazing staff!

Beautiful location and amazing service. This venue is everything a bride could ask for and more.

Della Terra is one of my favorite wedding venues with its classic, stone elegance, floor to ceiling windows to showcase the breathtaking views, and very personal, family built and run, service. The many caring, intimate details that went into the building of this magestic space will delight you and your guests. This is the perfect, intimate location for your elegant mountain wedding in any season.

WOW! What a venue. They take such good care of the couple.

This venue is Top Notch without a doubt. I had the pleasure of coordinating a wedding here last weekend and am so impressed with the entire staff beginning with the owners. All my needs were anticipated and exceeded! They treat all staff, vendors and clients with respect and truly are invested in every wedding. I had always heard how wonderful they are to work with and now I know first hand. Can't wait to coordinate more weddings at this venue. Della Terra Mountain Chateau is incredible!

Having been one of the first wedding planners to coordinate an event at Della Terra the year it opened, I cannot say enough about Pam and her team!! She has done a wonderful job designing Della Terra to be an all inclusive venue, providing brides with a one of a kind location and genuine Rocky Mountain experience.

I look forward to doing another wedding there soon! ~ Meghan Gutteron, MAG Events LLC

Amazing view, professional staff, great location!

This is one of the most INCREDIBLE venues in all Colorado! The view is breathtaking! The staff is amazing... if you are looking at having a wedding in the mountains then why not right in the backyard of Rocky Mountain National Park! You will not be disappointed... I guarantee it!

The groom will have a chance to get ready and relax with his groomsmen in the theater room downstairs. The lodge room has a three-sided fireplace and waterfall that makes for a great spot for candid shots with the bridal party.

The ceremony location is a short walk from the Chateau. Guests are seated in an amphitheater that offer great views of the ceremony and surroundings. The processional is most dramatic as the bride is escorted from the Chateau over a bridge. Photographers will love the time given to capture this unique part of a ceremony at the Chateau. The wedding party stands under two giant pine trees that frame the meadows and mountains in the distance. Because this setting is very open, we are especially conscious of noise during the ceremony as we try to be as discreet as possible.

Photographers are offered many settings for pictures with the couple and bridal party. The meadow behind the ceremony has sweeping views of the mountains towering over the property. To the west of the ceremony are more wooded grounds for additional portraits. Rivers, ponds and bridges follow the path back to the Chateau.

The reception hall known as the Celebration Place can accomodate up to 200 seated guests. The vaulted wood ceilings are draped with chandeliers and teardrop lights that warm the large space. The floor to ceiling windows look out onto the land below and flood the room with beautiful afternoon light. The hall is a great alternative for a ceremony during winter months that may make outdoor ceremonies unlikely. A balcony overlooks the hall and makes for a great spot for the bride to throw her bouqet into the crowd of awaiting girls below. This is also where the cake cutting usually takes place. It offers a great views of cake smashed faces for everyone below.

Della Terra also has accomodations for guests in one of their 14 luxury suites or 9 mountain cabins. Couples looking for a true Colorado Rocky Mountain experience will no doubt find the Chateau as a perfect setting for their wedding. The staff at Della Terra has always been more than accomodating to us. Their attention to detail in all aspects of the guest's experience sets Della Terra among one of the elite destinations for weddings.
