Rave Wedding Reviews

We hosted our wedding at the Boulder Theater in August and it was the most unique and incredible venue we could have ever imagined. Our guests were shocked from the moment they [saw] our personal message on the outside marquee to the art deco colors of the theater to the overall vibe and authenticity. The BT staff were nothing short of amazing! Kaitlin Hottovy was our onsite contact and she ensured everything went perfectly - including helping my husband with his bow tie :) Between Kaitlin, the AV team, the bartenders (Who created custom cocktails/mocktails for us) all the way to the team responsible for the marquee and of course the security/front of house staff who welcomed our guests at will call...it was all a dream come true. If you're looking for an out of the box venue for your special day, BT is hands down the pick for you.
