We recommend flying into Montrose Regional Airport (MTJ). It's about a 1-1.25 hour drive to Ouray.
Yes. Ouray is a small mountain town and having a car will give you flexibility to explore.
We are not doing a hotel block. There are plenty of options including Airbnb, VRBO rentals, and local hotels. Book early, as June is a busy time in Ouray.
For the rehearsal happy hour, mountain chic attire is recommended. Ladies can wear a flowy midi or maxi dress or a skirt—heels and boots both work well. Gentlemen can wear a button-up with a sport coat or blazer—jeans are welcome, and boots or loafers work well. Think polished, comfortable, and mountain-inspired. For the wedding, black-tie optional attire is requested. Ladies can wear a long evening gown or an elegant formal dress. Gentlemen can wear a tuxedo or a dark suit and tie—tuxedos are welcome but not required. Mountain temperatures drop quickly after sunset (often into the 40s), so we recommend bringing a jacket or wrap to stay comfortable.
The shuttle will pick up guests from Ouray Brewery. Please arrive by 2:15 PM so we can depart on time at 2:30 PM. Guests will arrive at Gold Mountain Ranch at 3:00 PM for the ceremony, which begins at 3:30 PM. After the reception, the shuttle will depart the venue at 10:00 PM to bring guests back downtown.
Ouray sits at approximately 7,800 ft. Please hydrate, take it easy the first day, and allow time to acclimate.
