The ceremony (family, invite-only), cocktail hour, dinner, and reception are all taking place at the Limelight Hotel in the heart of Downtown Denver. The Friday Welcome Event (invite only) will take place at Blanchard Family Wines, which is a short 10 minute walk or 3 minute Uber ride from the Limelight Hotel. You will not need a car for the weekend, unless you want to drive around to explore the city and mountains.
You would have received a separate email invitation from Jen and Ray.
Monday, April 20th is the deadline to RSVP for the dinner and reception. The ceremony and Friday Welcome Event will have a separate evite and RSVP for those invited guests.

There are two easy options. OPTION 1: the easiest and cheapest option is the RTD A Line train, which runs directly from the DIA airport to Union Station in downtown Denver. The ride takes about 40 minutes and the ticket costs $10. You can buy a ticket right at the kiosk next to where you board the train. The train runs about every 15 minutes and doesn't sell out, so you can buy the ticket when you get there. At the kiosk, choose “Airport Day Pass,” select the number of tickets needed, then proceed to payment. Once purchased, take the printed ticket and keep it with you, as fare inspectors occasionally check during the ride. After purchasing, look for the A Line train toward Union Station. There are multiple stops, but no transfers are needed. Union Station is the very last stop. OPTION 2: Uber and Lyft are widely available at the airport and offer door to door service. These typically cost around $50-$70 depending on traffic and time of day, with a travel time of about 35 minutes.
Feel free to reach out to Jen or Ray or either of their parents.
Please click the "Things to Do" link at the top for more details! There is lots to do all within walking distance of the hotel and some beautiful scenery to check out with just a short 30 minute drive.
Yes, but we don't have exact details for this other than it will take place at a bar within walking distance of the hotel, and we will announce the location towards the end of the reception. It'll depend on which establishment can accommodate our group and how many people want to come.
The Limelight Denver is in the Union Station / LoDo area, so there are quite a few public garages within a short walk. Here are some of the closest and most commonly used options. The hotel itself also offers valet parking (at $64/night), but nearby public garages are typically less expensive. Parking apps like SpotHero often show advance reservation discounts for the area. LAZ Parking - Triangle Building Garage 1550 Wewatta St — essentially across the street from the hotel and one of the closest self-park options. Union Station Parking Garage 1881 16th St 1660 Wynkoop St — a nearby garage a few minutes on foot from the hotel. 16 Chestnut Garage Very close to the hotel and commonly used for Ball Arena and Union Station parking. 1900 Sixteenth Street Garage Larger garage with plenty of spaces and usually competitive daily rates. 1515 Wynkoop Garage (good option if the closest garages are full during events.)
