Southwest is our preferred airline to Denver
We enjoy taking the 6:30a flight out of Indy which arrives in Denver at 6:45a. This gives us plenty of time to get our rental car, take in some breakfast in Denver, and make the 2 hour and 40 minute drive to BV.
2 hours 40 min Southwest of Denver
We love using Costco Travel for this!
There are obviously lots of options at the Denver airport to rent a car, but I generally find the best rates when I book through the Costco website (you do need a membership). You do not necessarily need to rent an SUV, we have traveled the mountains of Colorado in everything from a compact KIA (funny story) to a Nissan with no issues.
This is Aaron's domain, he is the master trip planner.
When you are ready to plan your driving route from Denver to BV there are several points of interest. Just call or text Aaron for some advice, we all know Mer is directionally challenged. If you have time we are encouraging people to add a few days on to their trip before or after the wedding. You can find lots to do in Estes Park (Rocky Mountain National Park), in Boulder, & in Fort Collins. Take a concert in at Red Rocks even! Beware it is BUSY SEASON in Colorado, you'll want to start looking for places to stay ASAP. More info to come!! Feel free to text us for advice, we love to share our knowledge.
