We may be a tiny bit biased because of our love for the town of Ridgway, but Ridgway State Park is the perfect space for a budget-friendly ceremony and reception in the Ouray-area. Have your ceremony on their wedding deck that sits high above the Ridgway Reservoir and have views of the Sneffels Range in the background. If you’re looking for one of the nicest picnic pavilions we’ve ever been to, consider one (or both) of their picnic shelters in the Pa-Co-Chu-Puk area of the park. They sit right along the Uncompahgre River and are both beautiful and peaceful.
