They were professional, communicative, and clearly have extensive experience to know how to handle the unexpected. We wish we had found them for bartending, the way he and Jaqui jumped in and turned what could've been a disaster into a blip not a guest knew about was such a relief. We would absolutely use them for any event in the future, and know you are getting above and beyond service from Evan and his team whatever event you hire them for.

Kerri and Frank, the owners, were my favorite parts. They were kind, reassuring and responsive! All guests had a great time and there were no issues. The best thing about this is when I was in private getting bustled, I became light headed because, like all brides, I hadn't eaten much throughout the day. They were very quick to act. They got me some food and orange juice and I was back on my feet in a few minutes feeling a lot better.

From the moment we walked into Christies of Genesee, we just KNEW this was the perfect venue to…read morehave our wedding!! There's wood and corrugated metal accents and is super cozy. No, not the realtor term cozy as it was more than enough space for all our guests, but everyone said that it is an intimate venue. When you're outside for a ceremony, the view is perfectly backdropped with the mountains. Inside, you have a dance floor on the lower level, then you walk up 6 steps to the bar. To the right of the bar is the dining room and to the left is where they serve the buffet. The dining room has a 270 degree view of the mountains and I70. Can we talk about food because we all know that makes or breaks any event?? Well, we had salmon and prime rib as our proteins with garlic mashed potatoes, green bean almandine, strawberry spinach salad, and fresh fruit. It was difficult to make this menu choice because all the tastings were so delicious! Kerri and Frank, the owners are so AWESOME! They answered every single one of our questions and were always so patient and sweet about everything. It's not too far from Denver, but it feels like a getaway. There's plenty of parking for all your guests and Genesee Park is on the backside for magnificent photos! I would come back and have a milestone birthday party here!!

Unfortunately, from start to finish, our experience was extremely disappointing and stressful. Communication was poor from the very beginning. Over the course of planning our wedding, we were assigned five different day-of coordinators due to constant staff changes. Then, just three weeks before our wedding, we received an email stating that the venue had changed ownership yet again. We were introduced to Keisha, the new manager and point of contact, who assured us that things would be handled differently and that we'd be well taken care of. Sadly, that couldn't have been further from the truth. Only two weeks before our wedding, we were told that they couldn't locate our signed contract. When we checked the digital link where our contract had been stored, it showed that it had been deleted. We were then asked to sign a new contract -- but this new version included multiple price increases, including higher rental fees. Despite having several emails proving our original agreement, the venue insisted we sign the new contract. Even during that renegotiation process, Keisha repeatedly forgot to include key details we had already agreed upon. If it hadn't been for our day-of coordinator carefully reviewing the revised contract, several important elements would have been missed entirely. That kind of carelessness just added to the stress and uncertainty we were already facing. When my husband (then fiancé) spoke with Keisha by phone to calmly address these issues, she raised her voice and continuously spoke over him like a child throwing a temper tantrum- behavior that was unprofessional and completely unacceptable, especially just two weeks before our wedding. The entire ordeal caused tremendous stress in what should have been one of the happiest times of our lives. To make matters worse, they wanted to charge us an additional $800 -- $400 per hour -- simply to arrive early enough to get ready at the venue. As a result, we were rushed on the day of the wedding. My hair and makeup team struggled to finish in time, and my husband ended up helping set up just hours before guests arrived -- something no couple should have to experience on their wedding day. To be fair, our day-of coordinator, Brooke from Grace & Co., was absolutely wonderful. She went above and beyond to make the day run smoothly and was the only reason things came together at all. However, she does not work for Villa Parker -- she was contracted separately, and her professionalism stood in stark contrast to the venue's management. As a Colorado native, I had always dreamed of having my wedding at Villa Parker. It was once owned by a couple who truly cared about making each event magical, but sadly, under the new ownership, that warmth, integrity, and attention to detail are completely gone. Even after our wedding, when we returned to pick up our items, the project manager saw us and didn't even acknowledge us -- not a word, not a smile, nothing. It breaks my heart to say this, but I would strongly discourage anyone from booking Villa Parker under its current ownership. The venue itself may be beautiful, but the management and treatment of clients are deeply disappointing. I hope in time they rediscover the excellence and care that once made this venue so special.

BEAUTIFUL VENUE FOR A WEDDING =============================…read more My husband and I attended the wedding of my cousin's daughter on Saturday, August 15, 2026 and it was memorable for many reasons. Before we arrived around 5:00 p.m. there was a hail storm that covered the ground with white. We were also a bit nervous because rain was in the forecast and the wedding ceremony was outside. Of course all the seats were wet, but the wedding venue or planner had umbrellas for everyone. One of my other cousins brought a wrap and she let many of us use that to dry off our seats. It basically started pouring right when the ceremony began and we all got pretty wet even with umbrellas, but my uncle who was officiating cut the ceremony pretty short which was funny. The house was beautiful and there was a big bar area on one side that everyone congregated at after the ceremony. Then a double rainbow appeared and everyone, including the wedding party went outside to take photos. The ballroom where the reception was held was really nice with a dance floor on one side in the middle.
