An Intimate Colorado Micro-Wedding AirBNB StyleLondon + JeremyTheir Story: Weddings come in all shapes and sizes, but when London and Jeremy set out to plan theirs, one thing was certain: this would be a weekend for family, not formality. Living life mostly abroad as service providers are luxury yachts, and rarely in the same place as their loved ones, they wanted a celebration that traded wedding “production” for genuine connection. So, three months before their big day, they reached out to us to bring their cozy, meaningful AirBnB wedding vision to life at a beautiful ranch in Monument, Colorado—one of many perfect vacation home weddings you’ll find in the Rockies.
Micro Wedding Package Details: Let’s be real—planning Colorado micro weddings from across the world (hello, Greece!) isn’t exactly a walk in the park. But for London and Jeremy, the real challenge wasn’t distance—it was creating a celebration where everyone could feel comfortable enough to truly unwind. “This is one of the only chances we get to bring our families together. We wanted a weekend that felt warm, easy, and honestly, a bit like a mini family reunion,” London shared. Stress was off the guest list; relaxation was the top priority for all, especially their moms, who absolutely deserved a break. The ranch they booked, with its sweeping views, set the scene for a gathering focused on what matters: good food, great company, and a budget smartly set between $18–22,000 (overall). It’s no wonder Colorado micro weddings and VRBO weddings are an ever-growing trend. |
A Cozy Micro-Wedding: Making Memories, Come Rain or Snow |
There’s a real magic to micro-weddings at vacation houses—everything unfolds at its own easy pace, no shuttles, timelines, or stress lurking in the background. London and Jeremy planned for an effortless flow: family arriving for their AirBnB wedding, cocktails and snacks in hand, basking in autumn’s beauty while a cellist set the mood in the backyard.
Cue Colorado’s dramatic flair: out of nowhere, the first snowstorm of the season swept through, trading sunshine for swirling snow and a brisk chill. The outdoor ceremony idea quickly gave way to an impromptu indoor setup — just one of the perks of vacation home weddings and VRBO weddings, where you can always pivot and stay cozy. Everyone simply gathered in the living room, where the warmth of family, the glow of candles, and those beautiful florals made the space magical. The cellist kept spirits high, playing as guests settled in and continued for London’s walk down the “aisle”—which, let’s be honest, has never looked cozier. Vows were exchanged with soft music and snowy views right outside, giving the whole thing a storybook feel. |

Once the “I do’s” were sealed (and the happy tears wiped away), the day rolled right into relaxed group photos, laughter, and love—no travel necessary when home is the venue. While the newlyweds snuck away for a few moments and some snowy portraits, the rest of the family enjoyed drinks, hors d’oeuvres, and chatty catch-ups.

As evening set in, everyone gathered around a long, beautifully styled tables for a custom dinner cooked fresh by a personal chef—three courses tailored to the couple’s favorites. Think lush garden flowers, candles twinkling, and just enough blush floral blooms to brighten up the scene. The cake? A culinary centerpiece: decadent chocolate rum ganache up top, moist carrot cake below, all dressed up with pearls and matching blooms.

Dinner led seamlessly into an evening of dancing, toasts, and stories in the vacation home's inviting living room and lounge. Shoes came off, playlists came on, and the night wrapped up with cake (seconds, anyone?) and grins all around—a perfect finish to a one-of-a-kind AirBnB wedding celebration.

Less Stress, More Joy |
London and Jeremy wanted more than an event; they wanted a weekend that gave loved ones time to connect and savor each other. After Jeremy’s proposal at the Broadmoor in Colorado Springs, and years of globe-trotting adventures, it was only fitting that Colorado welcomed everyone for the next chapter. A little help from Jeremy’s sister on the ground and a smooth planning process sealed the deal for their unforgettable Colorado micro wedding.
“This weekend wasn’t just about us—it was about our families truly being together,” London said. “We’ll always remember how special it was to finally connect in one comfortable place.” And if you ask the parents—no stress was the best gift of all. So, if your dream is a low-key, heartfelt Colorado micro wedding surrounded by family and great food (and, hey, maybe with a cameo from Colorado weather), London and Jeremy’s story proves you can have it all. Micro-wedding days, especially at a vacation home or VRBO property with a personal chef and room for last-minute snowstorm surprises, are proof that the best celebrations are often the simplest and the most memorable. |
