Sunrise Amphitheater in Boulder, Colorado

Sunrise Amphitheater is located 15 minutes west from Boulder along the beautiful Flagstaff Mountain Road. Couples looking for a casual mountain setting as the spot for their ceremony will appreciate the unique stone bench seating and sprawling views of Boulder below.

The Amphitheater's location makes for a great compliment to reception sites down in Boulder. The St Julien Hotel, Flagstaff House, Hotel Boulderado and Rembrandt Yard Gallery are just a few of the popular venues in Boulder for a wedding reception.

Parking for the amphitheater can be limiting so carpooling of hiring a shuttle for guests is recommended. Also, parking passes are required for the area so most couples buy passes in advance and have them handed out to guests as they arrive.

Lighting at the amphitheater is best in the afternoon. Since it faces east, afternoon sunlight is at the guests back while lighting the couple as the stand on the altar.

There are great opportunities for wedding party portraits around the amphitheater. The trail just below the ceremony site offers great views. We highly recommend taking the time to drive with the wedding party five minutes further up Flagstaff Road to a lookout point with unmatched views of the front range.
