Top benefits of choosing an all-inclusive wedding venue in Colorado
Getting engaged, sharing the news with your family and friends, and dreaming about the vision for your “once-in-a-lifetime” celebration is such an exciting time for couples! Once the excitement calms down a little bit, a lot of stress can take over when trying to narrow down your priorities and next steps. Planning a wedding can be a huge undertaking if you’ve never designed and executed an event of this size before, especially if you’re working full time or going to school.
This is where an all-inclusive venue with all-inclusive wedding packages can be a game changer!
Imagine walking into your venue the day of your wedding, and everything is ready to go for you…
- Your professional venue team is in place and ready to go; every detail has already been taken care of
- The Venue is fully decorated for you according to your vision
- The Catering and professional staff are preparing the menu, food and beverage services
- Your DJ and Photographer know exactly what to do – meet our pros
- Your Wedding Coordinator and her/his team have begun directing everything, and
- You get to enjoy every moment of your ceremony, reception, and all of the special moments with your guests, while dancing the night away!
Imagine “that’s YOU” on the dance floor below enjoying every moment our pros executed for you at our all-inclusive wedding venue Colorado – The Bella Sera Event Center
The Main Differences of All-Inclusive Wedding Venues vs. Venues with Only The Basics Included
1) It’s like a cohesive, professional sports team playing against a team of rookies or pros who have never played together before
Just like in sports, when creating last minute teams or even all-star teams, there is no culture, trust or chemistry necessary to succeed, and no mutual accountability. The event outcome is always going to be different if your vendors have not worked together for a long time as a cohesive team! When considering the perfect wedding venue in Colorado, think about the value of having an expert team at an all-inclusive venue to assist you every step of the way that has expert coordination built into your package. The inclusive team at the venue will have mastered the art of flawless event execution through hundreds of wedding celebrations. They know every inch of the venue, understand how to flow from one moment to the next, and how to work around each other to give the wedding couple and their guests to best experience possible. maximize the space, and .vs. trying to do a lot of the planning and logistics yourselves.
2) Venues with only the basics included
Venues that only include the basics, typically include tables, chairs, basic linens, and possibly set up and clean up; everything else must be added on and decided on separately. There’s no team helping you visualize the event flow and timeline, how to set up the floor plan, coordinating when every vendor can arrive, where they can set up, what rules they have to follow, and when they can tear down. You or someone you assign, must remember when to pay each vendor’s deposits and balances, and by when. The day of event coordinator typically doesn’t direct all of the vendors to work as a cohesive team. It’s basically a whole bunch of moving parts all showing up at a venue with the hopes everything flows magically and you, your maid of honor, and your family are left to put it all together.
3) Feedback from thousands of people over 20 years has confirmed the biggest difference between the two
For the past 20 years we have met with thousands of engaged couples and parents at our all-inclusive Denver wedding venue. Each one of them had a story to share of a friend or family member who regretted taking on a DIY approach to their wedding planning, wedding decor, catering, or hiring friends to DJ or photograph their wedding. The regrets were huge! This is one celebration where you want to be a guest at your own wedding, and not stressing about every little detail, especially the logistics and worrying if everything will magically come together.
With a proven track records of successful events, this is what our couples feel after their wedding day is over…
Testimonial for Bella Sera Event Center – Bride, Rachel Phillips (October 2024)
I cannot express enough how incredible our experience was at The Bella Sera. From the moment we first visited, we were greeted with warmth and professionalism that set the tone for our entire wedding journey. The all-inclusive “Italiano” package truly took away the stress of planning, allowing us to focus on what mattered most—celebrating our love with our family and friends.
Let’s explore more of the…
Top Benefits of All-Inclusive Wedding Venues
Benefit #1 – Your wedding planning is less stressful and more fun!
The idea of planning a wedding for 100, 200, or even more is not an easy task. If you’re the bride, and new to all of this, it’s hard to imagine what stresses there are until you begin the process.
Although planning a wedding can be really fun too, these stressors can overwhelm even the most organized bride or couple:
-
- money and budget concerns
- sticking to your budget when unexpected expenses occur
- working around time limitations when you have busy life schedules
- coordinating schedules with your fiancé and family to meet vendors
- decision fatigue
- juggling multiple opinions or family drama
- lack of expertise in design, decor, and visualizing the final event
- choosing your music, your photo style or formal photo list you want
- guest list dilemmas and who to invite
- trying to look your best on your wedding day, finding the dress of your dreams and coordinating all that goes into your overall beauty desires for your special day
Now imagine having a dedicated team of wedding professionals working in perfect harmony to bring your vision to life for you. Imagine saving money and time, and not worrying about unexpected expenses. All-inclusive venues offer exactly that – a seamless experience where every detail is handled under one roof. No more juggling multiple vendors or coordinating complicated schedules and deposit and final payment requirements for each vendor. Your venue’s experienced team handles everything from designing a creative event timeline with you, to offering multiple vendor meetings on one evening at the venue, to combining all payments from multiple vendors in one.
Benefit #2 – You save money and get more value from hidden financial benefits
Purchasing an all-inclusive wedding package is like buying a “value pack” of really amazing services and products, but at a much better price because everything in the package has been discounted. Many couples discover that all-inclusive pricing actually saves money compared to booking everything separately, while providing premium services they might otherwise have to forgo. Wedding budgets can quickly spiral out of control with unexpected costs, surprises and hidden fees. All-inclusive packages eliminate these surprises by bundling essential services into one transparent price with clear pricing structures and detailed inclusions, leaving “no surprise” costs later.
You’ll typically get a better deal if venues work with approved vendors who are happy to offer a discount to be included in a package in exchange for more bookings. This can include cakes, photography, DJ services, Videography, Florals and more. Wedding venues should have an extensive vetting process to ensure the standards of the venue are met by each and every vendor to always deliver the best experience possible.
Benefit #3 – You save time!
Besides all-inclusive benefits, when you book your wedding ceremony and reception at the same venue, you save time during the planning process because you’re only choosing one event space.
Couples often balance wedding planning with demanding careers, busy lifestyles, and possibly school. All-inclusive venues dramatically reduce the time investment required by:
- Eliminating the need to research and vet multiple vendors
- Providing tried-and-true planning timelines, tips and tricks
- Offering streamlined communication through a single point of contact
- Managing vendor coordination behind the scenes
- Handling all setup and breakdown logistics
- Sometimes decorating everything for you before you arrive
- With a private tasting, you’ll be able to select and make all catering and beverage decisions easily
Benefit #4 – You have access to top-notch vendors who are already vetted
They’ll do all the hard work for you, and they’ll do it well!
On your wedding day, you’ll need to know that everyone involved is present and doing their job. When you hire each vendor separately, you multiply the chances that someone will cancel on you—or worse, simply not show up. When all vendors are a part of the same all-inclusive package, you have that extra assurance that they’ll be there when you need them.
Our DJ’s and Photographers are top-notch and go through an extensive vetting process. From their obvious talent to knowing how to make warm and friendly connections with our couples, you can be rest-assured you’re getting top talent and an amazing value from their services in our packages.

Benefit #5 – You minimize the number of appointments and contact with multiple vendors
Without an all-inclusive package that includes top-notch vendors, you’ll be faced with doing a lot of research and vetting vendors yourself. This doesn’t mean you shouldn’t have the desire and option to choose your own photographer, caterer, or cake baker that you’ve always dreamed of for your special day; it’s nice to have the option to choose. However, when starting from scratch it can be very time consuming and require multiple appointments to find, interview, and vet the perfect vendors yourself. Imagine searching for the perfect DJ, interviewing or meeting with several of them, reviewing their contracts, fees, payment requirements, and process for choosing music. Then imagine trying to see them in action if they don’t have video of their services or multiple client reviews. Then repeat this process for a wedding photographer, videographer, cake baker, florist, caterer, and on and on.
Eliminating the need to research and vet multiple vendors is a real benefit!
Benefit #6 – Your wedding vision and decor will be designed and executed perfectly
Your wedding day should be a seamless reflection of your unique style and vision. If extensive decor options are included, all-inclusive wedding venues typically offer extensive decor options in each of their packages; however, not all do. What sets all-inclusive venues apart is their deep understanding of their spaces, and what will work well and what won’t, and what will take a lot of time to create and what won’t
Their design teams know exactly how colors play off their walls, where lighting creates the most dramatic effects, and which layouts maximize both flow and aesthetics. This intimate knowledge means they can guide you toward design choices that will truly shine in their space, while still honoring your unique vision. If you don’t have a lot of design experience, this is where having a designer in the package becomes a huge benefit and added value.
From beautiful table settings and linens, a variety of centerpiece styles, to magnificent lighting and custom design elements, these designers should have mastered the art of taking your vision or any design ideas you have, to help you create cohesive and beautiful look that carries over from the ceremony and reception beautifully to create a magazine-worthy celebration.

Benefit #7 – You’ll have a planner and expert wedding day team behind you at all times
From the moment you book your venue, you’ll have access to seasoned wedding professionals who understand every aspect of planning, creating and executing a seamless celebration. These professionals bring years of experience orchestrating successful events and can anticipate potential challenges before they arise.
Your venue’s expert team typically includes:
- A dedicated wedding planner who serves as your primary point of contact during planning
- A team of top-notch vendors who have worked together for a long time
- An on-site coordinator who manages timing and vendor coordination
- An experienced catering manager who oversees menu planning and service
- A setup crew familiar with the venue’s layout and capabilities
- Professional service staff trained in wedding-specific service
- Technical specialists who handle lighting, sound, and other equipment
Benefit #8 – Peace of Mind on Your Wedding Day
Perhaps the most valuable benefit is the peace of mind that comes with knowing every detail is handled by professionals who work together regularly. While traditional wedding planning can feel like guesswork wondering if several strangers will perform well together, all-inclusive venues operate more like a well-rehearsed band – each member knowing exactly when and how to contribute to the perfect performance.

The benefits, financial and otherwise, will put your mind at ease and allow you to focus on preparing yourself for the big day.
