Valley Country Club has served the Centennial, Colorado community since 1956, when Dr. George H. Gillen assembled 189 acres along Cherry Creek to build a private club combining golf, dining, and community. A $9 million clubhouse renovation completed in 2006 added a Mixed Grille for all members, a Family Dining Room, and a Couples Dining Room. The most recent Amenities Project, completed in phases from 2023 to 2024, added a resort-style pool, state-of-the-art fitness center, poolside dining pavilion, and tennis and pickleball courts. For private events, the club accommodates corporate gatherings, weddings, and milestone celebrations with what it describes as "beautiful spaces, inspired cuisine, and attentive service." The club sits on the western edge of Centennial with views of the Front Range and mature trees lining the grounds — a setting shaped by its proximity to Cherry Creek and the adjacent Cherry Creek State Park.

The Stone House is a historic event venue set within the Bear Creek Greenbelt in Lakewood, Colorado. Constructed between 1859 and 1864 from stones pulled from Bear Creek and rough-dressed sandstone quarried from the nearby hogback, the property is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Its 18-inch thick walls and age give it a character rare among Colorado wedding venues. The grounds sit within a manicured green setting of mature cottonwood trees, lawns, plant beds, and patio areas — with walking paths and ponds nearby for portraits after the ceremony. Ceremonies can be held outdoors beneath the cottonwood trees, while the interior accommodates up to 35 guests and the surrounding grounds accommodate up to 100. The venue includes dressing areas for the bridal party, along with tables, chairs, and a wood staircase that doubles as a backdrop for photographs.

The Parker Arts, Culture & Events (PACE) Center is a multi-use performing arts and event facility in historic Old Town Parker, Colorado, opened in October 2011. The building was designed by Semple Brown Design — the firm behind Denver's Ellie Caulkins Opera House — and its weathered steel exterior pays deliberate tribute to the railroad trestle that once spanned Sulphur Gulch on the same site. Natural mountain views to the west and the preserved earthen berm that forms the outdoor amphitheater continue to shape the character of the space. The PACE Center offers ten indoor and outdoor event spaces accommodating gatherings of all sizes. The contemporary Event Room seats up to 200 banquet-style and opens directly to the landscaped West Terrace, which holds up to 200 guests for outdoor receptions and ceremonies. The Art Gallery, with its hardwood floors and large windows, provides an elegant setting for cocktail hours and smaller gatherings. A dance studio, a state-of-the-art culinary kitchen, and a 534-seat Mainstage Theater round out the options for more specialized programming. All events benefit from on-site coordination staff and complimentary parking for up to 250 vehicles. The PACE Center holds the liquor license for on-site events, and catering is provided through a curated list of approved regional partners.
