FAQs

The Wedding Website of Ariella Nardizzi and Ryan Candell
Question

When should I RSVP by?

Answer

Please RSVP on our website by July 11, 2026 at the latest.

Question

Can I bring a date?

Answer

We are so fortunate to have so many amazing friends and family celebrating our love with us! All invited guests, kiddos and plus-ones will be addressed on the invitation and included by name on the "RSVP" tab of our website. But if you have any questions, please contact us!

Question

What's the dress code?

Answer

Semi-formal with a touch of mountain flair! Think flowy dresses, sport coats and dress pants, nice boots or dress shoes – and feel free to add a subtle western accent if that's your style (bolo tie, suede or denim jackets for when the sun goes down). Colorado weather can be rainy one minute, sunny the next. We reccomend bringing a light jacket, shawl, or something to keep warm once the sun goes down. The ceremony site is also somewhat rocky, so while it's easier to access than our usual mountain summits, we'd recommend steering away from tall heels or stilettos.

Question

What's the parking situation like?

Answer

Free parking is available at the venue. After entering through the Deer Valley entryway, follow the signs and take the first left into the gravel lot. Vans will be available to take guests from the parking area to the ceremony site, or it's a 5-10 minute walk up a gravel road. Please allow yourself 15-20 minutes to park and get to the ceremony site.

Question

Will your wedding be indoors or outdoors?

Answer

Both! The ceremony will be outdoors, followed by a reception on-site with indoor seating and outdoor dance floor.

Question

Will the altitude affect me?

Answer

We'll be nestled in the mountains, and Nathrop is at 7,600 feet above sea level. For those coming from sea level, please drink lots of water to help yourself acclimate. And remember, one drink at elevation = two drinks at sea level!

Question

Where are you registered?

Answer

Please see the "Registry" tab on our website!
