Dress Code

How Should I Dress?

Our wedding will be held at a campground that is completely outdoors. We will have large party tents set up for some shelter and you will have a cabin if you choose to stay at the resort.Being June in Colorado, anything can happen! Snow, rain, hail, and a perfectly sunny day are all valid options. Temperature could be anywhere from 50 to 80 degrees F (plan on somewhere around 70 degrees). Bring a light jacket for the evening to stay warm next to the bonfire. Bring a bathing suit if you like- hot tubs are available as well as our own section of the Cache la Poudre River if you want to dip your toes in. Don't forget your fishing gear! Due to the campground setting, bring shoes you feel comfortable walking with on small rocks and pine litter. We highly suggest NOT wearing high heels for this wedding!The wedding party will be dressed semi-formally. Please wear whatever makes you comfortable and prepare for the possibility of mountain weather!

The Moose Visitor Center is located 1 mile east of Gould on Highway 14. <img alt="visitor center" src="http://www.poudreriverresort.com/images/Poudre%20Canyon%20Moose%20Visitor%20Sign%20Photos%20for%20Web%20001%20(11).jpg" unselectable="on">Wildlife exhibits give you an up close and personal looks at Moose, Mountain Lion, Fox, Raccoons, and others displayed in their natural habitat. Books, posters, and maps are for sale as well as free information. Recent Moose, bear and other wildlife sightings are posted at the entrance to the Visitor Center. Early mornings and early evenings are the best times to spot moose, but it's possible to see a moose any time of day. Look for moose among the willows and brush along streams and ponds. Laramie River Road and Long Draw Road is where we have had our most frequent sightings. Moose can blend with their surroundings surprisingly well. You may be looking at a moose without knowing it. Scan the willows for out-of-place shapes, colors and sounds. Or look for motion, like the flick of an ear, the bobbing of antlers or the rustling of the willow branches. You may see evidence of moose on the trails. Their large, two-toed hoof is about six inches long, and their scat is approximately one inch long (see the exhibit at the Moose Visitor Center). Some times they leave scrapings on aspen bark with their front teeth or antlers. PLEASE admire and watch moose from a distance. Moose are peaceful animals, but may feel threatened if approached too closely. They can act aggressively and charge if they sense a need to defend themselves or their young. Moose can be especially dangerous during the rut (fall) and calving (spring) seasons. If you are accompanied by a dog or other pet, please keep them on a leash to avoid any unwanted confrontations.

Moose Visitor Center - Colorado State Forest
