 If you are not familiar with the expansive complex that is The Ranch at the Larimer County Fairgrounds, you’ll want to make sure to read this blog from start to finish! My Big Day Events is proud to have this premier Northern Colorado event venue as one of its 2018 Supporting Sponsors! The Ranch at the Larimer County Fairgrounds has a space for every kind of event imaginable – from the obvious county fair, to Trade Shows, conferences, business meetings, concerts, corporate parties, and weddings! We love the fact that we can recommend this spot to a variety of our clients!  Located in the heart of Northern Colorado’s Tri-City area (Fort Collins, Loveland, and Greeley), this 244 acre complex boasts expansive grounds, state of the art facilities – 5 separate dedicated building event spaces and arenas, plenty of parking and high end amenities, and of course, plenty of outdoor event space with coveted mountain views! With 5 specific venue spaces to choose from, The Ranch pretty much has every event option covered! My Big Day Events has been lucky to work with the friendly staff and event sales team of multiple occasions. We’ve hosted and executed large scale corporate parties in the First National Bank Building, and The Ranch, in turn, has sponsored some of our signature events that we offer throughout the year. We love this partnership and look forward to future events with this Northern Colorado gem! 
 My Big Day was honored to be recognized as one of the fastest growing businesses in Northern Colorado for a 2nd year in a row! This year, we also came in second place in flight V! BizWest is the annual host of the Mercury 100 Awards.
 The Mercury 100 list is ranked by percentage revenue growth over a two-year period. The 100 companies are divided into five “flights” of 20, with the highest revenue earners in flight one. Those 20 companies are then ranked by their percentage revenue growth over a two-year period. The Mercury is compiled by BizWest’s research department and vetted by Anton Collins Mitchell. Our 1st Annual NoCo Road Rally sold out last year, and we are so glad that participants loved this creative event! Tickets go on sale soon for our 2nd Annual NoCo Road Rally, which will be held on June 23rd, 2018.  A road rally is a kind of motorized sport. Similar to "The Amazing Race," it is a competition of accuracy not speed. Participants are sent out in teams, with a goal of navigating the course from start to finish while solving clues and completing challenges along the way - then arriving at the final destination first. Our road rally scavenger hunt requires the driver and their team to decode clues while still maintaining the most efficient travel time possible. Road Rally's (or sometimes called car rally) scavenger hunts have been celebrated across America for years and years. Participants are given clues about where to start, and they must solve a clue or complete a puzzle at every stage along the way. There are many variations of a Road Rally, and My Big Day has YEARS of experience putting on fun scavenger hunts. We know you'll have a good time! This year the NoCo Road Rally is in Loveland. Learn more HERE Not only is this a fun night out, it's for a great cause.... and you could win CASH!!! Tickets are $150 per car (for the entire team!)

We traveled around town in style in their Volkswagon bus! While the day offered some weather surprises, our hosts, Angela and Fig made for great company!!!!  We started our day with a visit at the Embassy Suites by Hilton Boulder & Hilton Garden Inn Boulder. We loved both of these spaces - very fresh, clean and contemporary. Our team noticed all the natural light they offered, and amazing art! Groups large and small will love the variety of meeting and conference space now available - and at multiple properties so close to each other! Our favorite features:
 After our tour of the Hilton properties, we headed over to the Boulder JCC. What an outstanding building! There were so many thoughtful touches and state of the art features. Our entire team was really impressed! Our favorite features:
 Our next stop was in Downtown Boulder, the amazing Rembrandt Yard. Not only is the Rembrandt Yard an art gallery, but it is an event space that offers so many unique features. With 2 levels, wood floors and windows that look out on downtown Boulder, this space can be anything you dream it to be. Our favorite features:

We had a wonderful time on NYE, and it sounds like all of our guests did too! We officially SOLD OUT early in the day on 12/31. We hated having to turn people away. Next year, plan for a sell out again, and get your tickets early! We've already committed to a 2018 ball with the Hilton. Tickets will go on sale in November again this year.
We are really proud of how our vignettes turned out and were SO pleased at how many folks took photos in them! We've already started working on the 2018 theme and vignette ideas!  Thank you for the MANY compliments we received about our DJ selection. DJ Kaaos is one of our FAVORITE DJs in Colorado, and we love that YOU love him too!  Putting on an event of this size and with this level of detail is no small feat. We cannot do it without all of the parties involved. Thank you to DJ Kaaos for keeping us dancing, Arcadian Pictures and Zebrajellyfish for capturing the event, Robin Rentals, our favorite bakeries B Sweet Cupcakes, Starlight Dessert Bar and Taste Local.

New Year's Eve in Northern Colorado - Loveland, Fort Collins, Greeley, Windsor, Timnath, Berthoud, Estes Park, Longmont Sugar, Butter, Flour……….baking from the heart! In the musical, Waitress, the protagonist, Jenna, expresses her hopes, dreams, and fears through the whimsically named pies she creates and bakes each morning. Like Jenna, the owners and lovely people at the newest Downtown Fort Collins attraction, Ginger and Baker, had dreams of their own - specifically of opening a little pie shop where people could gather in fellowship and with food. They put their hopes and dreams to work, and their vision expanded from pies to much, much more.  The My Big Day team had the opportunity to take a private tour of the amazing new facility, and let’s just say we were blown away. The love, details, and innovation that went into the remodel of the Old Feeders Supply Company building, a staple of downtown Fort Collins since 1905, was apparent the moment we walked in. The coffee and bake shop were full of wonderful scents and cozy decor. The new building additions of the The Cache restaurant and patios offered a nice modern flare to the historic landmark, blending the past with the present and future. No detail in design was overlooked, making the entire facility a site to see!
 Our tour took us through all seven of Ginger and Baker’s unique spots: The Market & Bakery, The Cafe, The Teaching Kitchen, both levels of The Cache Restaurant, The Rooftop Bar, and two separate special event spaces - one upstairs in the old building, and a beautiful wine cellar below. All of our planners were giddy with all of the future event possibilities that Ginger and Baker could hold!
 There is event space for small groups such as book clubs, date nights, and small corporate functions, as well as larger spaces for holiday parties and receptions. We were so impressed and excited, we booked a reservation on the spot for our upcoming team Christmas party!
We couldn’t be more thrilled to promote this gem of an entertainment spot, and cannot wait to see the impact that this “little slice of heaven” has in Northern Colorado! *See our slide show below...

Myrna's daughter, Colette reached out to My Big Day requesting assistance with putting a memorable birthday party together! We were honored to help the entire family celebrate Myrna's Big Birthday!  Our friend Joe with About The City Limos and Tours picked the ladies up and delivered them to Spa Botanica inside of the Embassy Suites in Loveland.    Our clients were greeted with a very personalized experience from the lovely Spa Botanica staff. They enjoyed a relaxing day of spa services and yummy things to nibble on and soothing tea to sip.  After a few hours of relaxation, Myrna and her girls were escorted by About The City back home to get ready for a night out!  For dinner, the ladies met up with the rest of the family for a large, private dining experience at Door 222 in Downtown Loveland. They had a delicious meal, dessert, and celebrated Myrna's 80 wonderful years on this earth! We were honored to help put this fun day together for the family!
