and it can be yours alone

At La Joya Dulce, we believe in creating a wedding celebration that is spacious, stress-free, and simply perfect. We believe as Warren Buffet does that it isn’t the price you pay, but the value you receive. With our versatile experiences, you have the option to book the ranch so that it is yours alone – there’s no rushing, no other events happening on the property, no looking back wishing you had more time to be with your loved ones. Please note while we want you to be relaxed and present on your day, there are no on-site accommodations at the ranch.

Feel good about your choice as LJD has a commitment to sustainability and the land that promotes stewardship of the environment.

Our Clients’ Favorite Features

  • Exclusive Weekend Rentals

    Courtney said, “For us, one of LJD’s major draws was that they only hold one wedding per weekend. Having access to the venue for three full days allowed for a more relaxed timeline and provided opportunity for us to more fully immerse ourselves in our wedding day and weekend!”

  • Unmatched Customer Service

    Lizzi said, “Kathie was so accommodating with our situation and you could tell that she not only cared about us as a couple, our vision as a couple, but also the magnitude of the event. On the day of the event, Kathie and her staff were incredibly supportive, professional, and VERY timely…It was absolutely perfect.”

  • Jaw-dropping Views

    Laura said, “The venue location itself is unparalleled with stunning views of the Elk River Valley nestled in hills surrounded by aspen. … This is the mountain/ranch location to beat!… The moment we set foot on the property, we knew this was where we would commit to one another.”

  • Amazing Guest Experience

    Ann said, “Our wedding was our dream wedding and I wouldn't change a thing about that day. We had many guests say that it was ‘the best wedding they have ever been to’. I would have to agree!”

  • Ease of Planning

    Sara said, “The venue offers not only multiple areas to host your events, but includes various and normally very costly event rentals such as tables, chairs, linens, bar tops, games, lots of wedding decor, and a very fancy trailer bathroom.”

  • A Unique Entry

    Shelby said, “On our wedding day, everything was absolutely perfect. They really were the BEST and I can't recommend them enough! Plus, my husband got to ride into our ceremony on a horse, so he will never forget the experience!”
