Weddings at Merritt

A Denver Wedding VenueInside a 1905 Sanctuary

Vaulted ceilings, original stained glass, and one room your guests will never forget. Sloans Lake, ten minutes from downtown.

Why couples choose Merritt

The room is the decor

This is an intact 1905 sanctuary: 24-foot vaulted ceilings, original stained glass, and hardwood floors that have held a century of gatherings. It photographs beautifully as it stands, so you can spend your budget on the people and the party instead of transforming a blank box.

Weddings here are Saturday celebrations

We host weddings on Saturdays, so the building and our full attention belong to one celebration. Friday and Sunday evening weddings starting at 4 PM or later can work beautifully too, and they bill at the lower Sunday-to-Friday rate. Have a different date or time in mind, like a full Friday wedding day? Reach out and we will talk it through.
