FAQs

Question

What should I wear?

Answer

The dress code for our wedding is semi-formal or cocktail. Birkenstocks (or other comfortable footwear) are welcome.

Question

What weather should I expect?

Answer

September in Colorado is beautiful, but the weather can be a bit unpredictable. While we expect the temperature to be in the 70s, there is also a chance it'll be much hotter or that it is snowing.

Question

What time of day is the wedding?

Answer

The reception will occur around 4 pm with dinner and dancing to last into the night.

Question

Can I bring my kids?

Answer

We respectfully advise this is an adult occasion due to limited seating, however we can accommodate infants under 2 years as long as they sit in parent's lap. Please note: this evening will be catered to an adult audience.

Question

How do I RSVP?

Answer

We will send out instructions to RSVP in the formal wedding invitation that you can expect closer to the wedding date.

Question

How to prevent altitude sickness?

Answer

For our family and friends visiting from sea-level, we advise to drink plenty of fluids upon your arrival to Colorado. In addition, high altitude may reduce your ability to process alcohol. It is recommended to drink at least 1 glass of water between each alcoholic beverage.
