Yes! Aspen is in the Rocky Mountains. Both Aspen and Snowmass Village sit at 8,000 ft. Altitude sickness doesn't effect everyone, but it can effect anyone!
Leading up to and during your stay in Colorado, the best thing you can do is to stay hydrated!
Water! Water! Water!
Don't be alarmed if you find yourself with shortness of breath while doing activities you normally find easy (ie. climbing stairs). It's probably not cause you're out of shape, it's because you're at 8,000 ft and the air is a lot thinner.
For those who plan on having a beer or cocktail or two, which is probably most of you, it'll hit different than being at sea level.
Don't forget to mix in a water often!
What's the weather going to be like?
During the day you can count on it being sunny in the mid to high 50's and cooling down to the high 30's in the evening. There's always a chance of a light dusting in October!
Will there be parking at the venue?
Short answer, No. Long explanation; There will not be parking at the venue, you must take one of the provided shuttles.
We will be providing transportation to and from the wedding venue at multiple locations in Aspen and Snowmass Village. We want to make sure everyone can relax, be safe, and enjoy themselves during the reception!
*If you have a special circumstance, please contact one of us (Dan or Bailey) to make arrangements.
I'm not staying at one of the hotels where a shuttle is provided, how will I get to the wedding venue?
We will have shuttles provided from multiple common points around Aspen and Snowmass Village. If you are staying somewhere near one of the hotels where a shuttle is provided, you are welcome to take one of those shuttles.
*There will be a final list of pick up/ drop off locations closer to wedding date.
I am bringing my kids to Colorado but they're not invited to the wedding. What are my child care options?
We will have a list of sitters we will provide to parents upon request. The list is made up of Aspen Ski Company employees who work at either the Hideout or Treehouse childrens' ski school. Many of the people on this list we have worked with in the past!
I have a food allergy, who should I tell?
Please let us (Bailey or Dan) know about your food allergy, and we will let our caterer know!
