Fan-favorite, award-winning Colorado wedding planner, The Event Troupe, has built a reputation for turning vivid wedding visions into celebrations that feel truly personal. And be sure to read until the end—there’s an offer at the end worth sticking around for.
Led by Amanda, a planner with 30 years of large-scale event experience and more than 300 weddings in her portfolio, The Event Troupe brings a level of craft and industry knowledge that’s hard to find. She was recently named a 2025 Planner to Watch by MSN, and couples across Colorado consistently appreciate her calm expertise and meticulous attention to detail that sets their experience apart.
With Colorado’s outdoor wedding season in full swing, The Event Troupe specializes in creating celebrations that work with the landscape rather than against it. Think high-alpine ceremonies in Estes Park and elegant outdoor receptions along the Front Range. One of their most-loved early planning tools? A custom mood-board session, where Amanda sits down with you and your partner to translate your aesthetic into a cohesive visual direction. It’s one of the most grounding things you can do at the start of the planning process.
As a full-service wedding planning and design collective, The Event Troupe meets couples wherever they are, whether that means stepping in months in advance for comprehensive planning or coming on board closer to the date for focused support.
Their signature Dream Wedding Package is built around one core idea: your wedding should feel like you. Amanda opens with an in-depth conversation about your personalities, preferences, and the details that matter most, like your color palette, the food, the music, the ceremony style, the moments you want people to remember. From there, she builds the entire day from the ground up. And with access to over 1,000 fabric options for linens and a curated library of custom design elements, the result is a wedding that looks like no one else’s.

FAQ: Colorado Wedding Planning with The Event Troupe
What areas of Colorado does The Event Troupe serve? The Event Troupe plans weddings throughout Colorado, with deep roots in mountain and destination celebrations. They’re particularly well-versed in the logistics of high-altitude venues, including Estes Park, Breckenridge, and the broader Rocky Mountain region.
What types of weddings does The Event Troupe specialize in? They work across a wide range of styles and scales, from intimate micro weddings in Denver to full mountain wedding productions. If you’re planning an elopement in Colorado and want professional design and coordination, they offer tiered packages to fit different needs and timelines.
What makes The Event Troupe different from other Colorado wedding planners? Amanda’s approach is deliberately low-tech and high-touch. Rather than relying on templated planning tools, she prioritizes communication, getting to know who you are as a couple before making a single vendor call. That, combined with 30 years of event production experience and relationships with Colorado’s top vendors, means you’re getting both creative vision and operational excellence in one team.
Does The Event Troupe handle wedding design as well as planning? Yes, and that sets them apart. Most planners coordinate; The Event Troupe designs. Amanda works with over 1,000 linen options, custom décor elements, and a mood board process that translates your inspiration into a cohesive, fully realized aesthetic. If you’ve been burned by generic Pinterest-board planning before, this is a different experience.
How does The Event Troupe approach micro weddings and elopements in Colorado? Smaller doesn’t always mean simpler, and Amanda knows that. Micro weddings and Colorado elopements require the same intentional design and vendor coordination as larger events, often with tighter timelines and more location-specific logistics. The Event Troupe offers packages specifically suited to intimate celebrations, ensuring the experience feels intentionally intimate rather than scaled-down.
