Question

How cold will it be?

Answer

We've been keeping an eye on the weather and while we are expecting our first snow of the season on Thursday, the wedding day is looking sunny and in the 40s! Eric and I are very excited to have the ceremony outdoors at the headwaters of the Colorado River, make sure to dress appropriately and bring an extra layer for the vows (just in case it's a bit chilly!).

Will you have a shuttle?

Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

Cocktail, please — suits for gentlemen, party dresses for the ladies. The ground at Winding River Ranch can be a bit soft, so you may want to rethink those stilettos. And we want you to feel comfortable, so if those shoes are too high or that top button is too tight, let it all hang loose in the barn!

Question

Are kids welcome?

Answer

We love your kids — we really do. But, we have large extended families and want to include as many people as possible. So if your invitation doesn't say it, we hope you'll join us for a kid-free night in Grand Lake! Let us know how we can help make that a reality.

Question

Can I bring a date?

Answer

If your invitation says “and Guest,” then yes, if not, we would prefer if it was just you.
