Nadia and Owen have season tickets to Ogden’s Twilight concert series. Thursday’s show is Thievery Corporation. Even if you aren’t a fan, it’s always a fun time so come have a beer in the sun and hang out. Tickets are available at: https://www.24tix.com/events/ozonf6pgjzfi3kurcjdlocokwy
12:00 pm
Like the twilight concert, this isn’t an “official” event, but it’s a fun option for before the Raptors kick-off event. Like you’d expect there is beer, German food, and live music, but you can also ride the ski lift up and down to experience the majesty of Ogden valley. https://www.snowbasin.com/events/snowwiesn-oktoberfest/
6:00 pm - 9:00 pm
The tickets are are on us: DO NOT BUY YOUR OWN TICKETS. Show up early and you may see a special guest throw out the ceremonial first pitch. Contact Owen (347-387-4208) or Nadia (816-716-2885) when you arrive if we haven’t seen you yet to get you your ticket.
4:00 pm - 10:00 pm
Casual to dressy. YOUR choice and no judgement. Owen and Nadia will be dressed formally but it’ll be hot so dress comfortably. Seriously, wear shorts if you’d like
Cocktail “hour” starts at 4 so come hang out and have a few drinks, but the ceremony itself starts closer to 6.
Train
If you aren't planning on renting a car at the airport, it is possible to get from Salt Lake City to Ogden via public transportation (perhaps in 90-120 minutes depending on connections). You can follow the signs to TRAX at SLC International and take the Green line to North Temple Bridge. From there you can transfer to the Frontrunner and take it North to Ogden. The Courtyard Marriott and Hilton Garden Ogden hotels are both walking distance from Ogden station, or call Nadia or Owen to come gather you!

A world class museum about a 45 minute drive away and a good jumping off point if you want to visit Salt Lake City for a day. Utah is a hotbed for fossils: they can be found both in the ground and at the Capitol.
If you plan on making a long weekend of it, we hear Park City is very beautiful. It’s a bit of a drive (90 minutes or so) but it’s a scenic route and lots to do on a day trip. If you want to buy some cowboy boots or an artist’s rendering of cowboy boots this is probably your best bet. It’s also the home of the High West Distillery if whisky is your hobby.
Of course, children are welcome! We will do our best to keep the profanity to a minimum during our vows, but we make no promises (the English contingent is going to love that wordplay). Although neither of us grew up here, Utah seems like a great place to be young. It’s full of the kinds of things children traditionally love: dinosaurs, arcades, soda shops, coal mines, you name it. Bring the kids and let’s test out those Utah drinking laws.
Dress in whatever makes you happy. Nadia and Owen will be more or less traditionally garbed, the Best Women will look stunning, the Best Man will…he makes some choices. If you’d like to use our union as an excuse to glam out, you won’t be the only one. Ogden can be very hot in September and the wedding is mostly outdoors, however, so if you want to wear shorts, you also won’t be the only one. We are planning on having some games set up and obviously there will be dancing so we’d like you to be comfortable and ready to celebrate.
Sorry, you did, and we don’t feel sorry for you.
Dry? Well great, you just jinxed it and now it’s going to rain; thanks for ruining our wedding. Utah isn’t “dry”, it’s more dry adjacent. Our best advice is to bring your ID with you whenever you go out because you will get carded at bars regardless of your age. Additionally, if you order a drink at a “restaurant”, as opposed to a “bar”, you will also have to order an item of food. There are more strange rules that classify some booze as “flavoring” and limit the amount of alcohol you can have in your alcoholic drink but we assure you this is only because Utah believes very earnestly in individual freedom.
