Planning a wedding should be a joyful journey—but for many LGBTQ+ couples, finding a venue that truly celebrates their union can feel overwhelming. At SKYLIGHT in Denver, we understand the extra layers of care and consideration you’re looking for; inclusivity isn’t an afterthought.
It’s woven into every detail of our Mile High hospitality. Here’s a guide created by our talented planning team to find LGBTQ+ venues in Denver:

What Does “LGBTQ+ Friendly” Actually Mean?
An LGBTQ+ friendly wedding venue Denver isn’t just one that “allows” same-sex ceremonies. Seek out spaces that:
-
Adopt neutral terminology—contracts and marketing materials that refer to “couples” or “partners,” rather than defaulting to “bride and groom.”
-
Showcase authentic imagery of past LGBTQ+ celebrations on their websites and in their brochures.
-
Equip their team with sensitivity training on topics like pronoun usage, family dynamics, and overcoming bias.
-
Support queer causes, whether through donations, event sponsorships, or by amplifying local LGBTQ+ voices.

Ways to Spot an Inclusive Venue (Besides Googling)
-
Instagram & TikTok Audits
-
Look for snapshots of same-sex ceremonies, first dances, and other pivotal moments on the Instagram and TikTok grids. Check Stories for Pride-month highlights, and make note of any ‘LGBTQ+ friendly’ confirmations in the venue’s bio.
-
-
Ask Fellow Queer Creatives
-
Photographers, florists, and DJs who specialize in LGBTQ+ weddings in Denver can point you toward venues where they’ve felt truly embraced.
-
-
Review Platforms
-
On WeddingWire or Yelp, search for reviews from queer couples—did the venue honor every vow, every guest name, and every pronoun?
-
-
Sample Questions to Pose
-
“Can you walk me through how you’d accommodate nontraditional wedding party roles?”
-
“What’s your policy on gender-inclusive signage and restroom facilities?”
-
“Who on your team has completed LGBTQ+ cultural competency training?”
-
