An amazing Colorado experiance!
We were so honored to be invited guests at an amazing wedding this past weekend on September 3rd 2023 at Lajoya Dulce Ranch. We had never been to Steamboat Springs so we called Lajoya Dulce for suggestions for lodging and area activities. We spoke with Kathie the owner and boy did she come through for us. She actually emailed us an amazing itinerary! We felt like she knew exactly who we were and what we would like. From our lodging that had us sleep to the sounds of the river rapids from our screen door, the incredible Saturday farmers market, and relaxing in the hot springs prior to the wedding, we felt like this was our wedding week! The drive up to Lajoya Dulce was so beautiful. The Colorado experience started right at the ranch gate when a women rode up on a horse to greet us just like in a movie! Little did we know it was the owner Kathie! Mandy and the staff greeted us and showed us where the restrooms were and brought us into the barn for cocktails and apps. The barn was spotless. This is a real working ranch so I was expecting the usual smells and there were none! The restrooms were easily accessible from anywhere on the property. Very clean (and the music inside them was a nice touch). The ceremony was held outside with the most amazing views of the mountains and countryside. They got married on horses complete with a real double rainbow. Every inch of Lajoya Dulce is made for pictures! The bar was so cute. It was inside a vintage trailer. Drinks were all great (and strong)! The old fashioned was my favorite made with real good bourbon and real maraschino cherries. The bartenders were so friendly and new alot about drinks.( If your lucky, you can ask to find Wayne and have a great coversation about bourbon). The reception was held inside a real working horse arena. The walls were covered in beautiful fabric, there was a huge dance floor on top of the dirt that the horses ride on, a big stage with a great band and beautiful chandaliers. Not sure what they do to the ground but we were all amazed that the dirt did not get on anything! Some of the ladies dresses were dragging along the dirt and we were shocked they did not get dirty. It was almost like a carpet (nice and soft on your feet). I kept checking the bottom of my shoes to see absolutely nothing. Simply amazed!!! They even brought in an instructor to teach us some line dances. The staff was very professional and great to talk to. The food was outstanding. It was cocktail reception style with food stations all around. I liked that I could eat what I wanted when I wanted and 2 hours later I could eat more. We had great pulled pork and Buffalo chicken sliders, mac and cheese station with all the toppings, tamales, salad station and more. I dont think I got to try everything because I was so full. Desserts were on point also! Hand made churros and the milk shakes in little milk bottles were my favorite. To end the entire Colorado experience, we could actually see the Milkyway outside!!! One of the staff told us all of the properties are not aloud to have any uplighting outside so as to not cause any light pollution. We were very appreciative of this because we had never actually seen the Milky Way. We were simply amazed! Kathie, Mandy and the rest of the team at Lajoya Dulce really go above and beyond to give every guest a real genuine Colorado experience. The attention to detail is not missed by us. It was a storybook wedding we will never forget.
Memorable guest experience
I attended a venue at La Joya Dolce several weeks ago. It was a breathtaking experience with beautiful scenery on a jaw dropping property. The entire staff was so helpful and professional. Kathie and Wayne are so accommodating and their attention to detail is beyond impressive! The food...the music...the florals...all 5 STAR. If you are looking for the ideal ranch setting for your venue in the perfect mountain getaway, you have found it at La Joya Dulce.
