We have decided to hold a private, intimate ceremony outdoors with our immediate family and two of our best friends. However, we are inviting all of our friends to join us for a celebratory weekend (8/16/19 - 8/18/19) in Denver after we tie the knot! We plan to show our guests our favorite hiking trails and breweries.
Our first real trip as a couple was to Denver in August of 2015 and it was incredible! We tackled our first 14-er (Mount Bierstadt) and drank plenty of local IPAs (Great Divide was our favorite brewery, later to be replaced by Ratio Beerworks). That trip led us to plan an annual trip to Colorado to hike and drink good beer... and when thinking through where we'd want to celebrate our special day, it was the first place that came to mind!
Rusty and Morgan met on June 17th, 2014 and had their first conversation over some bagels and schmear. Rusty would eventually say, "Can you throw this out, it looks like you could use the cardio?" After about six months of some VERY heavy petting, Morgan cornered Rusty at their favorite bar, Hand and Hand, requesting that he politely, "Shit or get off the pot." Rusty quickly obliged knowing full well that Morgan was the best thing about his miserable existence. They have been inseparable ever since a - a true thunder and lighting story. Of course their lives were made infinitely better by Sir Winston "Ja'Quan" Stein who is the glue that binds their relationship together.
