bliston creek farm 4185 METCHOSIN RD, VICTORIA | 778.533.7550 | BILSTON.CA In 1851 Bilston Creek Farm became one of the first registered settlements of the Hudson’s Bay Company, under the leadership of James Douglas at Fort Victoria, several years before BC or Canada would be founded. For a century and a half it was farmed by the Witty family, and remnants of that time still remain, from heritage apple trees, to beautiful old barn board, to rusted tools and WW1 trench art found buried in the earth.

ROCKY MOUNTAIN BRIDE WEDDING VENUE GUIDE

When we discovered the farm, it had been left fallow for decades, but we could see the beauty beneath the brambles right away. Those years of wild growth left behind perfect soil for growing lavender, the inspiration for our flagship crop. Today our vision is to build a farm that will remain for centuries to come, where anyone can come to experience the magic of farming. We hope you’ll be a part of it!

ROCKY MOUNTAIN BRIDE WEDDING VENUE GUIDE

Thirty years ago on a ranch deep in Southwest Colorado, a tiny vineyard was planted on a whim. To its owner, John Sutcliffe, there was something entrancing about the idea of making wine in the harsh wilderness of McElmo Canyon. Twenty years later, the vines are weathered and strong, the wine more complex, and the tradition continues under winemaker, Jesus Castillo’s, devoted eye. Sutcliffe Vineyards has helped to spawn a new approach to winemaking in Colorado, and continues to garner more awards than any other Colorado vineyard. Celebrate your nuptials at Sutcliffe Vineyards in the spectacular McElmo Canyon, just southwest of Cortez, Colorado. The grounds boast acres of grapevines, a quaint orchard, rolling fields, and a magnificent view of Battlerock. Enjoy elevated farm to table fare and world class wines in a luxurious country vineyard setting for a wedding that you and your loved ones will never forget.

ROCKY MOUNTAIN BRIDE WEDDING VENUE GUIDE

El Rancho de las Golondrinas (The Ranch of the Swallows) a historic rancho and now a living history museum, was strategically located on the Camino Real, the Royal Road that extended from Mexico City to Santa Fe. The ranch provided goods for trade and was a place where the caravans that plied the road would stop on their journey coming from or going to Santa Fe. It was a paraje, an official rest stop for travelers, and was even mentioned by the great military leader and governor, Don Juan Bautista de Anza, when he stopped here with his expeditionary force in 1780. El Rancho de las Golondrinas, located on 200 acres in a rural farming valley just south of Santa Fe, New Mexico, strives to maintain examples of life during the period when Spain ruled in the southwestern portion of the North and most of the Central American continent. The museum opened in 1972 and is dedicated to the history, heritage and culture of 18th and 19th century New Mexico. Original buildings on the site date from the early 1700s.

high west distillery 703 PARK AVE, PARK CITY | 435.649.8300 | HIGHWEST.COM High West Distillery was founded in 2006 by David Perkins and his wife, Jane. David, a former biochemist, was inspired to open his own distillery after seeing the parallels between the fermentation and distilling process and his own work in biochemistry during a trip to a whiskey distillery in Kentucky. In 2004, David and his family relocated to Park City, Utah to begin their new venture, where they began distilling in 2007. They chose Park City because of David’s love of the Old West and Utah’s little-known whiskey history. ROCKY MOUNTAIN BRIDE WEDDING VENUE GUIDE

High West began with humble roots, opening a small, 250-gallon still and Saloon in an historic livery stable and garage. What was once a small operation in downtown Park City has grown to be an internationallyrecognized, award winning brand.
