Best Time of Year for Getting Married at Grand Junction Wedding Manor
The weather in Grand Junction is most similar to Moab, rather than the rest of Colorado. The summers are scorching and we have mild winters. If you want a warm summery wedding with lush landscaping, aim for May or early June when the lavender plants are in bloom. If you hope for moderate weather, the best time of year is April, early May, or October. Winter weddings would most commonly be held in January or February, with spring weather coming in March.
The venue’s indoor space with heating makes winter weddings completely feasible, while the covered areas and flexibility for indoor/outdoor reception options give you peace of mind during Colorado’s unpredictable spring and fall weather.
Lodging for Your Grand Junction Wedding Manor Wedding
Grand Junction Wedding Manor now offers optional on-site lodging, which is a game-changer for couples and their closest family or friends. They have room to sleep around 8 people right on the property—perfect for couples who want to extend the celebration without worrying about driving. For additional guest accommodations, Grand Junction offers a variety of hotels, vacation rentals, and bed and breakfasts throughout the valley.
