We are planning a smaller, more intimate gathering. Because of this, we kindly ask you only bring those the invitation is addressed to.
While we adore your children, on this night we respectfully request to keep the event “adult only”. We greatly appreciate your understanding.
We ask you to RSVP by June 1, 2025.
Formal dress is required. We encourage our guests to embrace bold patterns, vibrant hues, rich textures. Let your imagination run wild & we can wait to see your stunning ensembles!
We recommend booking your sleeping accommodations sooner rather than later. The Rocky Mountain National Park saw approximately 4.1 million visitors in 2023 (so you may say it’s quite popular). This isn’t the kind of place you want to book last minute! We apologize that we are unable to block rooms, as that is not an arrangement that these cabin / lodging companies offer.
The ceremony begins at 3:30 pm. We ask you arrive at least 10-15 minutes ahead to be seated on time.
The elevation in Estes Park is around 7,500 feet. It hosts the highest continuous paved road in the US. You may end up with altitude sickness if you don’t prepare yourself! • Drink lots of water the week leading up to your arrival. Also keep yourself hydrated on your trip. This will help a lot! • Make sure you’re getting breakfast in the morning, even if you’re not a breakfast person. • Get enough sleep. Your body will feel that it was over-exerted if you aren’t getting enough rest. • Eating iron-rich foods will help your body replace oxygen. Leafy greens, poultry, fish, and lean meat would be great additions to your diet.
There will be parking onsite for the ceremony & reception.
We recommend Black Canyon Inn, as it is the location of the venue and offers many different options of accommodation. Views are stunning and the wildlife is abundant. We have listed a number of other cabin / lodge locations nearby that provide a number of amenities along with a view.
Estes Park in July is typically sunny & anywhere from 70-85 degrees during the day, but can drop to as low as the 40’s when the sun goes down. We recommend packing layers if you plan to enjoy the outdoors while you’re here.

Yes, the ceremony will take place upstairs. Cocktail hour will then take place downstairs on the balcony before we begin dinner inside.
Mac and Mary will be arriving in Estes Park July 5th & departing the morning after the wedding. They will then spend a few days alone in a different part of Colorado.
