FAQs
Question

Question
What time should I arrive at the ceremony?
Answer
The ceremony will start at 3:30pm and guests can start arriving at 3pm. Please note there is a short walk (5 minutes or less) down a wide dirt path from the parking area to the ceremony location.
Question
Where should we parking for the ceremony and reception?
Answer
The ceremony and reception will be taking place at Perry Mansfield. There will be some parking available across from the pavilion (our reception location) and much more on the east side of the Julie Harris Theater. Carpooling is encouraged!
Question
What should I wear to your wedding?
Answer
Our wedding is what we call "mountain casual." This means less-fancy dresses or jumpsuits, button downs & slacks, and comfortable footwear or boots. Bring a sweater or jacket for when the sun goes down as it gets chilly after dark. Tall spiky heels are not recommended as the ceremony *may* be outdoors on grass. The reception will be located mostly indoors, with the option to eat outside.
Question
If I'm planning on camping onsite, what do I need to know?
Answer
You can van/truck/camper camp onsite starting Friday afternoon. Please no tent camping, tents are not allowed per county ordinance. We have the venue from Friday at 12pm until Monday at 12pm, so stay as long as you like! We will be parking vans/campers on the WEST side of the Julie Harris theater. After turning left onto the dirt road from CR 36, take the first right to the theater. We will have signage in place :) Bathrooms and showers will be available in the Conrad building, on the opposite side of the Julie Harris theater. There will not be electrical or water hook-ups. Feel free to contact Dana or Matt with questions about camping!
Question
Is there transportation to and from the hotels to the ceremony?
Answer
We are not providing transportation to and from Perry Mansfield. Steamboat has multiple options for rides including Uber, Lift, and Alpine Taxi. If you are staying at a hotel, check to see if they offer a shuttle service. We encourage carpooling or biking and dissuade any of our guests from drinking and driving. Vehicles can be left at Perry Mansfield overnight and picked up the following day.
Question
Can you tell me more about Perry-Mansfield?
Answer
Perry Mansfield is the oldest performing arts school in North America at 109 years old! Many of the buildings onsite are historic and have been in use as long. Matt and I live in cabins just down the road that are also historic buildings and were previously used to house Perry-Mansfield founders and students many years ago. Perry-Mansfield’s Mission Statement is to "provide young people superior arts training in body, heart, and mind and to promote creativity, a sense of the close brotherhood of the arts, and the values of a way of life close to nature."
