FAQs

Question

What is the dress code?

Answer

For the Rehearsal Dinner: We are embracing the true Colorado atmosphere for the welcome party! We are asking guests to dress western chic. In case you need inspo, I've created a Pinterest board! I know there have been times when I would have loved to see some outfit ideas to pick from! https://pin.it/BaZqlhZZ9 For the Wedding: We encourage guests to wear their best formal attire! Dark suits with ties and floor-length dresses would be best due to the time of year and winter weather. The bridesmaids will be in black, so we do ask guests to choose different winter colors! I made another Pinterest board for inspo if wanted! https://pin.it/5RQ5beYDu

Question

Will the wedding be indoors or outdoors?

Answer

If you looked at the venue's website, you may have noticed there are two wedding sites on the property. Not to worry, we will be having ours at The Boulders, completely indoors! Something else to note, the venue is two levels, so stairs will be involved. However, there is an accessible elevator for those who need it.

Question

If I stay at Black Canyon, can I walk to the venue?

Answer

More than likely, yes. There are a couple of buildings on property that might be a bit far if walking through snow, so check which one you're booking in. Most are within walking distance though!

Question

If I stay downtown, can I walk to the venue? Vice versa?

Answer

No, it would not be feasible to walk to the venue from downtown or vice versa. While it may seem close enough on maps, it is just not possible with the hills and potential winter weather.

Question

Am I allowed to bring a plus-one?

Answer

We'd like to keep the guest list just to those who know us well, so the name of every guest invited to attend is listed on your invitation and no additional guests can be accommodated.

Question

Are children allowed to come?

Answer

No.

Question

I have a dietary restriction, will I be able to eat?

Answer

We will already be accommodating a multitude of allergies for the reception! However, please let us know if you have any restrictions and we will pass them on to the chef.

Question

Will there be an open bar?

Answer

Yes :)

Question

Should I rent a car or use the shuttle service?

Answer

It truly depends on how much exploring you are planning on doing. If you'd like to continuously go from your hotel to other points of interest in the area, it would be best to rent a car. If you choose this option, it is recommended to pick a car with AWD. However, if you plan on staying in the warmth of your hotel, the shuttle would be a good option. Uber would not be the most reliable option either as we have heard they are few and far in between in Estes Park.

Question

Is there a grocery store?

Answer

Yes! There is a Safeway right in Estes Park, so you can stock up if you plan on staying a few days!
