Our Wedding

Successful Blind DateWe were introduced by our two friends Mandy and Matt. Ashly grew up with Mandy back in Illinois and Colin and Matt were new acquaintances at their firehouse in Breckenridge, CO. Mandy had asked Ashly a few times to meet this great guy from the firehouse but she wasn't quite sure about being set up. When she finally agreed, in November of 2017, we all went out together around Breckenridge. We had a lot of fun and a lot to talk about. At the end of the night, Colin asked Ashly for her number. They went on a couple dates and Ashly met Levi soon after, he stole her heart, but she wasn't too sure about letting her walls down for his dad quite yet. Those of you who know Ashly, know she's a bit shy with new people and really enjoys her alone time. She's not one to take chances and tends to worry.....a lot! After she gave Colin the run around and denied the next date, they reconnected after a couple months and Colin won her over with all of his adventuring and his kind, genuine heart. She couldn't imagine being without the two of them and from there on out, she traveled CO (and some neighboring states) with them, being pushed to all her limits, and doing her best to keep up. The ProposalColin surprised Ashly with a 2 night getaway in a small fishing town in Florida while they were visiting his mom and stepdad on Spring Break. He booked a tiny home right on the water and they spent the next two days exploring the little town and kayaking right from the back of their place.The morning before check out, Colin was hoping to take them on one last kayak. In Ashly's true fashion, she was pretty set on cleaning up, packing up, and heading out on time. (Poor guy.) Lucky for her, he's good with change of plans. She turned down his invitation and went inside to clean up. When she came out to the dock, Colin had a few fishing poles set up to use the last of the bait. He asked her to go reel in the line that was out on the edge of the dock. As she started to reel it in, Colin asked if she had caught anything. and she noticed Colin recording, and of course, became instantly nervous. As they both laughed and Colin recorded Ashly reeled in what she thought was an empty line. Seaweed? He asked. He walked over towards her from the other side of the dock as she reeled up something she couldn't recognize, but knew definitely it wasn't a fish. With his phone recording, he reached out for the pole and pulled down an amazing handmade purple quartz stone bracelet, and asked her to marry him. She couldn't believe it was happening, but of course, said YES!

Look back on the page for information closer to time. 

Bookings with the group discount are to be made by March 22, 2022.

(ie: boat tour/day trip, fishing trip, etc.)

I am asking all guests to book the Premium package so we can host "The Night before Gathering" at a new bar on site that requires guests to have this package. With this option, you get all basic amenities as well as access to the new Japanese restaurant on their sister resort. (reservations required) Lastly, you will get a daily restock of your minibar! One thing you will note is that during checkout there is an option for airport transportation. The resort does not include this so I suggest making plans with others to use the transportation option here if you feel more comfortable. Otherwise, you can use any service found at the airport; taxi, etc. that you are comfortable with.
