Q + A

If you're reading this message, you're one of our favorite people in the world and we're so happy you're here! Please RSVP by April 25, 2025, thank you!

How do I get to Crested Butte?

We understand Crested Butte is not easy to get to and thank you in advance for making the trip to celebrate with us. Crested Butte (especially during peak wildflower season!) is an incredible place and we can't wait for you to experience this slice of Colorado heaven. Some of the allure comes from its somewhat-remoteness; it is a 4+ hour drive from the closest major airport (Denver), or a 1 hour regional flight to Gunnison (GUC), and a 30 minute drive to Crested Butte. We don't say this to dissuade you, but want to acknowledge up front that it is a full day of travel. If you plan to fly into DIA and drive, we would strongly suggest staying the night in Denver and driving the following morning to break up the day! (There are also limited shuttles/ride shares in CB, so having access to a car can be helpful, though not required.)

May I bring kids to the welcome party?

The welcome party will be held in the bar area of a restaurant & a generally crowded space (CB is a small town, there are not many large venues!) so as long as you are comfortable with that, we'd love for you to bring them.

May I bring kids to the wedding?

Although we love your little ones, we regretfully cannot accommodate them at the wedding due to limited seating. There are a few babysitting options in town so please get in touch ASAP if you plan to attend and would like their contact.

What is the attire?

The attire is Summer Mountain Cocktail. For women, midi dresses with shoes with a thicker heel to walk on grass would be appropriate. For men, we suggest pants with a jacket and no tie. It’s July in the mountains so make sure to protect your skin from the sun during the day and a warmer layer for when it cools off in the evening. Afternoon rain showers are also common in the mountains in the summer so please plan accordingly. We're doin' it rain or shine!

I have dietary restrictions. Will you be able to accommodate?

We will have gluten free and dairy free options. If you have any other dietary restrictions, please be sure to note that in your RSVP and we will do our best to accommodate.

Will you provide transportation?

Crested Butte has a great public shuttle system. You can find more information out about it on the "Travel" tab. For the wedding, there will be a private shuttle service looping from the Elevation Hotel to the venue, between 2:45-3:30pm on Wedding Day. Please make sure to arrive early if you plan to utilize this option so we can make sure to get you to the venue with plenty of time before the ceremony starts! If you are staying in town, express public shuttles run every 20 minutes between the “4-way Stop” (Elk ave & 6th) in Town to Mountaineer Square (right next to Elevation Hotel). The shuttle takes about 20 minutes, so make sure to be on the 2:20, 2:40, or 3pm bus to ensure you arrive at Mountain Square by 3:20 at the latest. There is very limited parking at the venue itself; please let use know if you need to drive so we can make sure there is space.

Where should I stay? Is Crested Butte walkable?

We have more information on the "Travel" tab above, but Crested Butte is made up of two smaller areas: the Town of Crested Butte, and Mount Crested Butte. The wedding itself is happening on Mount Crested Butte, which is about a 10 minute drive up the mountain from the Town. The Welcome Party and After Party are happening in Town. Mount Crested Butte feels like the base village of a typical ski resort - hotels, a few restaurants, but mostly intended to serve the resort. The Town is where the character of Crested Butte is, with cute, fun shops, restaurants and generally more VRBO/Airbnb esque accommodations. The Town is very walkable in and of itself, as is Mount Crested Butte, but plan to drive or shuttle between the two unless you're out for some real exercise! (at almost 9000'!)

Can I take photos during the ceremony?

We invite you to be fully present with us. Please keep all devices turned off during the ceremony. We have hired a very talented photographer who will capture our day.
