Michael and Cody met on a snowshoe trip in Rocky Mountain National Park shortly after they both moved to Boulder. They've been on MANY adventures together over the last 4 years - From camping in the desert near Moab, UT to the intense climbs of Four Pass Loop near Aspen, CO they always have an absolute blast struggling through outdoor adventures together.

Staci and Laura met at The Dark Horse as part of a social event geared towards meeting new friends for those new to the area. They immediately bonded over their love of huskies, and grew closer as friends as they shared weekends together on ski trips to Jackson Hole and Steamboat as well as numerous hikes and game nights.

Spencer and Cody met at the Movement climbing gym in Boulder. Now, since Cody has mostly stopped climbing, they share an interest in backpacking and have traversed multiple sections of the Colorado Trail and Wind River Range together. Spencer being forever a showman and unbelievably comfortable with public speaking has kindly agreed to be Staci's and Cody's wedding officiant as well as a groomsman.

Mikhaila holds the special honor of being both Cody's beloved sister and one of Staci's cherished bridesmaids. Staci and Mikhaila spent time getting to know each other during Mikhaila's trip to Colorado, where Mikhaila joined Staci and her friends during a weekend trip to Keystone to view the famous fall colors in the mountains.

Jaron and Cody have known each other nearly as long as Staci and Cody (like 3 days less). Jaron is Staci's brother first and foremost, but he and Cody have bonded over chess as well as a mutual enjoyment of outdoor adventures. While Jaron currently lives in NYC, as far from the wilderness as can be, he has whitewater rafted, backpacked, skied and hiked many miles with Cody and Staci (and many of the others in the wedding party for that matter).

Staci and Mary met during their freshman year of high school during a biology lab and they quickly became close friends. They've shared laughs through Grey's Anatomy watch parties, French class and everything in between. Mary has been there for Staci through all the ups and downs of life so it wasn't a question of asking Mary to be a bridesmaid.

Drew (aka Scorchius) and Cody (aka Warfox) -- we're gaming nerds -- met while they were attending middle school in Fallon, NV. They both were members of the Fallon Swing Club, a performance dance team in the area, and they have stayed in touch and remained good friends, both via video games and occasional travel meetups, since Cody moved away in 2010.

Vicki is Staci's cousin. Growing up, these two were practically inseparable, spending countless hours together creating the kind of childhood memories that last a lifetime. Though life has taken them to different places and miles now separate their daily lives, their connection remains as strong as ever. Every holiday reunion is like pressing play on a paused conversation – they slip back into their easy rhythm of shared jokes, inside stories, and the comfortable familiarity that only comes from truly knowing someone.

Kyle and Cody met when they ran with the Boulder Trail Running Breakfast Club, a meetup group that traverses anywhere from 7 to 17 miles on Saturdays before devouring Huevos Rancheros. One of their earliest adventures together was assisting with an unofficial search and rescue operation looking for a wayward dog after a long run. They've kept in touch and remained good friends while Kyle has moved from Boulder to Austin, Salt Lake City, and back to Austin.

Sarah is Staci's cousin. From early childhood, they were constant companions. From endless sleepovers filled with late-night giggles and secret-sharing to cheering each other on from the softball bleachers, Sarah and Staci have been each other's biggest supporters through every season of life. Their adventures together span years of road trips, family gatherings, and treasured afternoons spent at Bya's (their grandma's) house, where some of their most cherished memories were made.
