The Grant Humphreys Mansion is maybe my favvvvorite wedding venue in Colorado, with it’s 1900s backdrop, stunning vintage elements and photo backdrop opportunities, and it’s close proximity to both Denver and a network of vendors, as well as the mountains, it’s the perfect Denver wedding venue for a goth, edgy, or vintage inspired couple.
Built in 1902, the Grant Humphreys Mansion was originally home to Colorado’s third Governor, James B. Grant. Situated in Denver’s Capitol Hill neighborhood, this Beaux-Arts style mansion has retained its historic charm with ornate woodwork, stunning fireplaces, and a sweeping grand staircase. The mansion has hosted countless weddings and events since becoming a public venue, making it a cherished part of Denver’s cultural heritage.
There’s a luxe airbnb right across the street that works best for smaller groups. It’s literally walking distance (a walk, right across the road!), and makes the transition seamless. Depending on the amount of time you book at the venue, you may need to get ready earlier and off-site from the venue, so this offers a great option! Here’s the link: Grant Humphreys Mansion Airbnb
