It's a local favorite and it's easy to see why. Here you and up to 225 guests will have a view of the Colorado Rocky Mountains that enchants event those who've seen it a thousand times before. A wedding on the deck with the majestic Baldy Mountain as the backdrop will make your day a perfect 10. The Bergenhof is available April through November. The Maggie - Named after Maggie Pond just off the deck, with the reflection of one of Breckenridge's most celebrated ski mountains, Peak 9, shimmering on the water. This place is the reason they invented the picture window, and there are many. Because on your day, the setting has to be as beautiful as you always dreamed. Indoors or out on the patio, The Maggie easily charms up to 225 guests, and is available during the day and evening from May through October or after 7:30 PM in the evening from November through April.

We have service for 20 guests for rehearsal and for family dinners, but you will probably need additional linens, dishware, and glasses on your wedding day. RULES: We do not allow shoes anywhere in our homes ~ you are free to walk in your stocking feet (our beautiful hardwood floors are kept scrupulously clean). Brides sometimes wear ballet slippers. We also do not allow smoking in the homes or on the decks and there is a stiff fine if this rule is not strictly adhered to (the Colorado Mountains are considered high desert and fire danger is very high). Other than this, OUR home is YOUR home throughout your stay and we want you to feel as though you are getting married in your own living room with the Colorado Mountains as your backdrop. We ask that you love our homes as we do and return them to us in the condition that you found them......so that couples can enjoy their vows in them for years to come!

Please read the following information before going to get your marriage license. It will save you from having to make two trips! The Bride and Groom need to apply in person. If one of you is unable to apply in person, you will need to fill out an absentee application that has to be signed by a notary public. In the state of Colorado, the legal marriage age is 18. If you are under the age of 18, you will need to have a notarized consent form signed by a legal guardian. You will need to provide your Social Security card and one of the following forms of ID:
Passport Birth Certificate with a raised seal Other state or military ID court your divorce was finalized in, or the date and place of death. The Fee is $20 cash. You cannot pay with credit card or check. The license is only good for 30 days. There is no waiting period, so it can be used right away. In the state of Colorado, blood tests are NOT required. In the State of Colorado the bride and groom can marry themselves or a registered minister, pastor, judge, magistrate, or certain Indian Tribe members can marry them. In other words, anyone (your cousin, a friend) can perform the ceremony (this is a lovely option for couples traveling to the area who do not have an established relationship with a minister). To make it legal the bride & groom must sign as the official on the marriage certificate and have one witness sign as the witness. The person performing the ceremony can sign as the witness or someone else can sign as the witness. You just have to make sure that the bride and groom sign the certificate so they are marrying themselves. When you apply for the marriage license tell them you are marrying yourselves and have them show you exactly where to sign.
