We have two hotel blocks: 1) Elizabeth Hotel (Marriott Autograph Collection) and 2) Fort Collins Marriott. In addition, downtown Fort Collins has many Airbnbs and other hotels to stay. WE STRONGLY RECOMMEND YOU BOOK ASAP BECAUSE ITS MOVE-IN WEEKEND AT COLORADO STATE UNIVERSITY AND ACCOMMODATION IS FILLING UP FAST.
The Tapestry House is located just 7 miles from downtown Fort Collins, and a 10 or 20 minute drive from the hotels where we have blocks. Free parking is available, but limited at the venue. To fully and responsibly enjoy the open bar, we highly encourage all to book transportation via Uber and Lyft. We will be providing bus transportation back to the hotels, but it is NOT provided going TO the event.
Fort Collins is 70 miles north (about 60-80 minute drive, depending on traffic) from Denver International Airport. We recommend you rent a car or take an airport shuttle service, such as the Super Shuttle or Groome Transportation (Colorado local).
Caroline and Kaushik are both keeping their names, so you can address us as you always have - Ms. Caroline Lucas and Mr. Kaushik Moro.

A baraat is a celebratory wedding procession for the groom involving live music and dancing. While it does not hold religious significance, it is a fun and common Indian wedding tradition. The baraat is meant to bring the groom to the wedding venue with much pomp and fervor and is a custom that originated in North India but is adopted by other Indian communities as well today. The groom, decked in traditional Indian finery, is usually seated on a ceremonial horse (or an elephant, chariot, or car) as his guests lead the way, dancing. entrance and ends at the lobby or banquet hall entrance. What will guests do? You will dance and party alongside Kaushik as he rolls his way up to the venue for the ceremony! There will be music blasting and drinks to get the dancing going.
