/ Wedding Stories / By
A bride and groom stand close together on a dirt path surrounded by mountains and trees, capturing the romance of an outdoor WELLSHIRE EVENT CENTER Wedding Venue. The bride holds a bouquet of flowers, ready to celebrate their special day.

This could be you.

If you’re planning a wedding that values tradition, comfort, and a touch of old-school charm, Wellshire Event Center offers a warm and polished setting on the edge of downtown Denver. Located at the historic Wellshire Golf Course, this venue delivers timeless details — wood beams, chandeliers, fireplaces — paired with flexible layouts and excellent guest access.

As a Wellshire wedding photographer, I love how this venue supports full wedding days: prep, portraits, ceremony, and dancing all in one cohesive, elegant location.
