Wedding October 2014 My husband and I had our wedding reception at the Summit Event Center and it was a horrible experience to say the least! This was supposed to be the most memorable day of our lives, and it was. But in the worst possible way! To start off the staff was instructed to have our decorations in the room and ready for our help to start decorating and they didnt have it available. Our help had to go searching for it. Also, they were supposed to have all our cake out on the table to start since it was all decorated. So, once we arrived my mother had to go and find the rest of the cake to put out. The food left much to be desired. We tasted the food and picked our menu before the wedding, but the food that was served was cold, and tasteless. Nothing like we tasted beforehand. Also, the children at our wedding were to be served a different meal (more kid friendly) the same time my husband and I were served. The employees forgot to serve the children and by the time we realized it, they were already eating food off their parents plates. They finally brought out the childrens meals, but just like ours, it was not up to par. We also purchased the option to have two proteins per person. But, since they had no server for the proteins, or a sign that explained anything our guests didnt realize they could take two. There must have been TONS of food left over, but we never saw it. During the whole reception anytime we had a question none of the staff could understand us because they didnt speak English! We saw the manager once at the beginning of the night, and then he disappeared never to be seen again. I felt the worst for my mom (mother of the bride who also paid for this reception) because she couldnt enjoy herself at all the whole night. She was constantly running around trying to make sure things were done correctly and getting ignored by staff. Throughout the whole night the staff would go around taking drinks off tables before they were empty. Many of them were paid alcohol drinks that were completely full, or more than half full. Many of our guests complained of paying for drinks and then not getting to drink them. They also took my husband and Is cake off our table before we even had one bite. It was still untouched! At the end of the evening the staff started cleaning up well before our cutoff. They were even piling our decorations which we were taking home with trash all on one table to be sifted through later. My mom tried contacting the owner to have our grievances heard, and the owner seemed interested at first. But after talking to her staff who told her that we were lying. She decided to not even listen to our side of the story. Saying that her employees wouldnt lie and there was no reason to hear us out. She even threatened us with a law suit for posting a negative review of her business. Please save yourself the heartache and trouble by finding somewhere else for your occasion! -A very heartbroken and disappointed customer-

My company hosted a luncheon here at the Summit and the experience was above and beyond amazing. The staff was courteous and helpful. The customer services was amazing. The Food was delicious and the staff made sure that the venue was clean and presentable. We rented the main ball room, and since the luncheon was during the holiday season the staff had the ball room decorated beautifully. They accommodated 300+ employees and even had additional rooms for individuals to use for private conference calls. And with having an event with so many people, when last minute changes were made, The Summit handled every change with grace. In asking for feedback from others who attended what they thought, feedback was positive and very upbeat. I will definitely will be hosting future events here at The Summit!!!!

I present seminars throughout the country but mostly in Colorado and the Denver-area is a huge market for me. I have been working with The Summit Event Center now for MANY years and cant say enough good things about them. My participants are local businesses (owners and staff) and do NOT need hotel accommodations, so The Summit Event Center is perfect for me. I present multiple times a year using their facility with groups ranging in size from 100 to 400. Their staff, their food (lunches and break out sessions), their seating (classroom style for my groups), their AV (dual projectors and sound system), their parking (huge and close) ... are all amazing. Wonderful venue!!!

I had my wedding there on February of this year 2014, and hated it. Horrible experience, never never do your wedding or any occasion there. Go find something else even if its your last choice dont do it here , do it in your house, trust me. Same fat rude security guy was there who called a police on us. And chased around our guest an old lady, tried to kick here out, and plus they asked me to kick out my 30 guest or they would shut down the wedding. They are so rude and want your money. They took everything up front and bullied us around, my gosh I wish that place to go down, they dont have no idea what they did to us. Please dont do it here. avoid this place

MEG Associates Consulting Group, LLC has contracted with the Event Center since Colorado began requiring continuing education for licensure of home care agencies about mid-2009. Our workshops last up to two days and involve many changing details: numbers of rooms, varied set up, use of medical and technical equipment, kinds of meals and refreshments, etc. The service and food have been wonderful; staff is gracious and solicitous. We would not think of using another venue!!!

Hi Ann Margaret, I just wanted to tell you that we had a wonderful experience at your facility! From the first day I called for information you were so easy to work with. I appreciate your quick responses to all questions and e-mails. The day of the memorial service all of the staff members were truly courteous and helpful. Corey and Elmer really did a great job. The facility clean and was perfect for what we needed. Thanks again for everything!

The Connection Church has been meeting at the Summit Event Center for almost a year. They are affordable, flexible and always accommodating. The facility is clean and well taken care of. Our members have become accustom to the level of excellence here, the service and attention from the staff is fantastic! No matter what type of event your planning the Summit Event center is the perfect place to have it!

I hosted a small (30 guests) 50th wedding anniversary celebration here today. The room was set up beautifully, the catered buffet was superb and the staff was awesome. From the first phone call and meeting until we left the facility today everything went without a hitch. A special thank you to Cory and Elmer for special attention throughout the day! Thank you for allowing us to have a memorable event!

The conference staff were wonderful in assisting us with our conference in June. They assisted in accommodating us for videotaping a panel discussion and with the different space options it was easy to have a morning general session and afternoon breakout sessions. The participants were also very pleased with the facilities, staff, and food.
