Question
How should I get to the ceremony and reception?
Answer
We have shuttles planned to transport guests between the hotels and the venue. To catch the shuttle from the Hyatt Place Boulder/Pearl Street, please meet by 3:05pm; the shuttle will depart promptly at 3:10pm. To catch the shuttle from the Comfort Inn and Suites, please meet by 3:20pm; the shuttle will depart promptly at 3:25pm. At the end of the night, the shuttle will depart the venue at both 9pm and 11pm and return to each of the hotels. Guests are also welcome to drive themselves to and from the venue, which has ample parking. Because the venue is located a few minutes north of Boulder, we believe ride share options may be difficult to find at the conclusion of the reception.
Question
How will Saturday's football game impact the ceremony and reception?
Answer
That's right, it's game day in Boulder! CU Boulder will be taking on Baylor in Boulder on the day of our wedding. This has resulted in limited hotel availability and might impact travel times during the day. For accommodations, we have secured two hotel blocks for the weekend. Please see the "Travel" tab on this website for details about the hotels. For travel times, we will know when the game is scheduled for kickoff a few weeks before the wedding. We will update shuttle transportation times based on this information. Please be on the look out for information from us about shuttle timing! If you plan to drive yourself to the venue, please be aware of the football traffic and plan accordingly.

Boulder, CO is located about one mile above sea level. For our guests more accustomed to lower altitude, you might notice some effects.
