We will be having an outdoor ceremony. October in Colorado can be a toss up for weather. We recommend dressing for fall with semi-formal/cocktail attire. We are aiming for warm colors, such as dark greens, burgundies, rusty orange, and navy; however, you are more than welcome to wear whatever style/color looks best on you. We plan to have a basket of blankets for the ceremony for those who need an extra layer.
We have not blocked rooms for hotels. We recommend getting AirBnbs or Vrbos near the venue, which is on the Eastern side of Manitou Springs. If you are looking for a hotel, we recommend Cliff House. If you are aiming for a more rustic experience, Timber Lodge Cabins has some cute lodging. There are also a number of hotels and quaint motels in the area.
Craftwood Peak has its own parking lot. There should be plenty of space to bring your own car. If you plan on imbibing with the happy couple, we recommend getting an Uber. Guests are allowed to keep their vehicle overnight. You will need to collect your car by noon the next day.
Plan ahead. We won't be serving cake at this wedding. Instead, we have an offering of some of Sean and Lindsay's favorite desserts: browned-butter rice krispy treats, brownies, and cupcakes.
We are having an open bar. Please drink responsibly and tip your bartenders.
