Searching for a Denver wedding venue that offers you the freedom to design your wedding day exactly how you envision it? SKYLIGHT, a wedding venue gem in the heart of Denver’s Art District, might be the perfect space for you.

Before we dive in, here are my pros and cons for this wedding venue:

Pros:

Indoor and outdoor ceremony and reception options
Dressing room
24 rental period: no curfew for inside events (they will have to stop the service and consumption of alcohol at locally mandated time)
Parking lot for venue 1.5 blocks away (guests can park overnight!)

Cons:

Outdoor space is not covered
Must use their in-house beverage provider

Bar service starting price includes just wine & beer

Because the venue is a blank slate, be prepared to account for rental items such as garbage cans, coat racks, etc.
