FAQs

Question

Should I still RSVP if I am unable to attend?

Answer

Yes. While you will be truly missed, if you are unable to attend, we would be grateful if you could RSVP and let us know at the earliest opportunity so that we can plan accordingly.

Question

Where is the ceremony and reception taking place?

Answer

The ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception all occur at the same venue, situated at the summit of Steamboat Mountain. To reach the venue, you must use the Gondola. The Gondola ride lasts approximately 9 minutes, so please be prepared to board at 5:00 PM. The ceremony will be held outdoors, weather permitting. The cocktail hour will also take place outside, while the dinner and reception will be held indoors.

Question

What is the dress code?

Answer

We'd love to see our family and friends get dressed up for our big day. The dress code is semi-formal attire. Ladies can wear floor-length, tea-length, or midi formal dresses. Gentlemen can wear suits & tie. No jeans, please. The ceremony is on the grass so wear shoes that wont sink in. It can get a little chilly at the top of the mountain when the sun goes down, so feel free to bring an extra layer if needed.

Question

Is there transportation?

Answer

If you're staying at the base of the mountain, the Gondola is a short walk. We are not providing transportation for the event so if you are staying in downtown Steamboat you will have to arrange transportation. Steamboat Springs has a free bus system. You can access the shuttle schedule here: https://www.steamboatsprings.net/876/Summer-Schedule-Routes
