We are so grateful for our friends and family, who continually support us! We would love for everyone to join us at our Boulder destination wedding, and we totally understand if you are not able to. Either way, we love you!
While we were initially feeling optimistic about our new date and we are happy with the news of the upcoming vaccine, Navin & I feel that it will still be a bit premature for everyone to safely travel and celebrate in May 2021. We are now aiming for late September/early October 2021! As things are still very uncertain, we will not be making any final decisions for several more months. We will be sure update everyone as soon as we do. In the meantime, Happy Holidays and everyone please stay safe!!
As optimistic as we were trying to be, we have come to realize that it would be best to postpone our celebration to Spring 2021. Since NCAR is a government facility, they are being extra cautious about re-opening to the public and informed us that they would not be able to host our wedding in September. We were trying to scramble and make different arrangements, but taking into account that people are still concerned about traveling, we had a lot of obstacles ahead of us. Instead of making ourselves crazy, we have decided to postpone to May 2021. Still in Boulder, of course! We are making preliminary arrangements and will send out an update as soon as we get the chance. Stay tuned, and we hope that you will celebrate with us in 2021!
Despite the COVID-19 situation, we are proceeding with our original September 12th date! The situation is still fluid, as the venue is a government facility that may have stricter rules - but we are staying optimistic and have a few contingency plans in place. We will be sure to keep everyone posted as we have more official information. We completely understand if anyone feel unsafe to travel during this time. While we would love to have everyone join and celebrate with us, your health is of the utmost importance! We will be sending out invitations in early June. If anything changes it will be followed by a lot of panicked emails and phone calls, but we will be sure to reach out to all of our guests with any important news. Please be sure to RSVP with your decision either way, and reach out to us directly if you have any questions!
#Navon is the result of Navin and Yvonne meeting in the age of dating apps. Fate eventually matched them together through technology and mutual friend connections on social media. Their first date was in February 2013 where they bonded over bougie cocktails, Korean BBQ, cheese, and crime dramas - themes that continually arise throughout their relationship.
True to their relationship, Yvonne did most of the planning for the proposal and Navin graciously went along with the plan. They made a celebratory lunch reservation at Manhatta in FiDi to take in the sweeping views of New York City on Saturday, June 1st, 2019 - also their 6-year dating anniversary. Earlier that morning, Yvonne went to the gym while Navin rearranged their family of stuffed animals at their apartment to help with a surprise proposal. Still sweaty and gross, she said, "Of course!"
For those who are willing and able to make the journey, we want to pack in as much fun for you as possible! Please let us know your travel plans so we can make sure you are taken care of. If you are extending your stay either before or after, we will plan smaller hang-outs, (easy) hikes, and other activities to make you love Colorado as much as we do. Be sure to check out the Travel, FAQ, and Things to Do pages for lots of info, and check back in the upcoming months for finalized details. Please do not hesitate to reach out to us for any questions and concerns!
