The phrase represents locations in Colorado that do not require payment for the use of their space for wedding ceremonies and/or receptions. These spaces can range from public parks requiring minimal permitting to privately owned locations offered without charge under specific conditions.
Selecting such a location offers significant budgetary advantages, enabling couples to allocate funds towards other aspects of their wedding, such as catering, photography, or attire. Historically, reliance on community spaces and family-owned properties served as a common practice, prefiguring the contemporary interest in cost-effective celebratory options.
