Hosting a Luxurious Engagement Party at The Astrid
All the best love stories start with a romantic proposal in the enchanting Steamboat Springs. Against the picturesque backdrop of mountains, meadows, and rolling rivers, a lifetime of cherished memories can begin. Following such an unforgettable moment, the best way to celebrate this milestone is by hosting an exquisite engagement party at your vacation home at The Astrid.
With the white glove service of a 5-star hotel, complete with all of your favorite home comforts, your vacation home at The Astrid will be a highly personal location for such an important celebration. Generic party locations might appear beautiful, but they lack a sense of intimacy that can only be achieved in a private home. Celebrating an engagement should be anything but generic – this party will be etched in the hearts of the couple, their families, and friends, for years to come.
Here at The Astrid, we understand the sentimental value of hosting celebrations in your vacation home. Our team is dedicated to helping you make every milestone you celebrate here completely extraordinary. As you begin to dream about the possibilities that await you in your new vacation home, we invite you to peruse our exclusive list of trusted party vendors who are sure to make your next party, be it an engagement celebration or otherwise, a truly luxurious experience.
Bespoke Fine Dining
It wouldn’t be an engagement party without a delicious spread for your guests to enjoy. Hors d’oeuvres, entrees, main courses, and desserts, all beautifully laid out in honor of the happy couple. However, there’s nothing worse than being taken away from your own party, forced to hide away in the kitchen over a hot stove.
There’s always the option of heading downtown to one of Steamboat’s luxury restaurants, but we know you’re seeking that extra-special personal touch for your engagement party. That’s why we recommend working with a private Chef who can prepare your meal from the comfort of your vacation home’s spacious kitchen (and we’re sure they’ll do the washing up too!)
Local private Chef, Amuse Bouche, offers personalized fine dining experiences for you and your loved ones in Steamboat Springs. Chef Lulu Cox and her team create custom menus tailored to your exact preferences, using top-quality ingredients for upscale dinner parties. We can’t think of a more perfect choice for a truly elegant engagement party.
Delicious Fine Wines
Elevate your engagement party to luxurious heights by choosing a selection of fine wines to accompany the food. The right wine pairing will enhance the flavors of your bespoke celebratory meal, creating a tantalizing sensory experience for your guests.
What better way to celebrate this important milestone than by procuring fine wine from a local Steamboat supplier?
Located at the base of Steamboat ski resort, Ski Town Wine & Spirits stays ahead of the curve, acquiring the newest wine selections from top level producers, before the rest of the world discovers them. With six knowledgeable sommeliers on staff, this specialty store focuses on offering family owned, organic, biodynamic, and small production wines for their clients.
The dedicated team at Ski Town Wine & Spirits are sure to make the perfect recommendation for your engagement party’s signature bottle. And, thanks to their deeply personalized service, your purchase history will be kept on file. This means that you could choose to buy the same wine again to celebrate your wedding day, or future anniversaries. So choose carefully, because the wine you select could be making a sentimental reappearance for years to come!
Romantic Private Musicians
Yes, Cyndi Lauper’s ‘Time After Time’ makes a fantastic start for a romantic Spotify playlist… but your engagement party deserves musical accompaniment that oozes opulence. We recommend choosing a live musical performance from the comfort of your vacation home.
Inviting a live musician into your vacation home will create a truly enchanting, romantic, and intimate entertainment experience. The personal touch of live music will reflect your appreciation for quality and exclusivity, celebrating your new beginnings with elegance and flair. Take this opportunity to make your engagement party unforgettable by hiring a talented local musician.
Steamboat favorites include pianist Beth Blaskovich, or string quartet String Poets, each available for private bookings and celebrations.
Elegant Engagement Party Decor
Your vacation home at The Astrid comes complete with decadent finishings, featuring specially chosen hard flooring that feels cool and solid underfoot, adding a touch of elegance to every step. Gold bathroom finishes, like gleaming faucets and opulent shower heads, catch the light and create a warm, luxurious ambiance. Smooth bathroom tiling offers a pristine, sleek surface that complements the golden accents, enhancing your sense of sophistication and serenity.
Whilst your vacation home will feel complete day-to-day, incorporating party decor will add an extra special touch for your engagement party. Thoughtful décor will only enhance the opulence of your vacation home, showcasing your taste and personal touch. Beautiful decorations will elevate the party’s ambiance, making this celebration one to remember.
We recommend choosing Unbound Floral Design to transform your vacation home into an enchanting engagement party venue. This delightful local design team will adorn your home with exquisite floral arrangements that capture the natural beauty of the Rockies.
The team is made up of artists, designers, and nature lovers who bring a creative and organic approach to floristry, transforming any setting into a stunning, romantic backdrop.

An Extra Special View From Your Window
The beauty of hosting an engagement party at your vacation home at The Astrid is, as well as having access to all your home-comforts, your celebration will be backdropped by remarkable mountain views in every season.
The Astrid’s most exclusive vacation homes, The Townhomes, feature stunning south-facing views of Mount Werner and the Flat Top Mountains. This guarantees you all-day sunlight and breathtaking scenery for your engagement party. But, what if you could make the view through your window even more personalized?
Imagine the look of pure surprise and joy on your guests’ faces as they look out the window and suddenly see a personalized message in the sky! Experienced air advertisers, Fly Signs, will coordinate with you to utilize their airplanes and enormous banners to create a sky-high moment for your engagement party.
Perhaps you could use this special sight to reveal the wedding date to your guests, thank them for being there, or add a touch of romance by filling the sky with the happy couple’s names.
When the Party’s Over
Here at The Astrid, we believe that the secret to enjoying the mountainside lifestyle is found in the details. Where hotels offer no flexibility, and traditional vacation homes feel like a never-ending list of chores and maintenance tasks, The Astrid offers something different.

The concierge service will assist with guest transportation, ensuring everyone arrives and departs smoothly, adding to the evening’s sophistication.
