Haley & Matt Tie the Knot

Our Wedding

We met in high school—yeah, yeah, high school sweethearts and all that. But what most people don’t know is that the very first time our eyes met was in a parking lot. We were both there with our small circle of friends, both too quiet and shy to actually say anything. The groups kept mingling, and we kept silently staring… until Halloween of 2014, when Matt finally asked if he could hug Haley before he left (in Matt's defense, we were young and he was polite). And the rest, as they say, is history.Just kidding.High school went about as you’d expect. Haley played soccer, and Matt golfed. We hung out with friends, acted too cool for our families, and got good grades.Flip the page—college.We both ended up at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. And before you ask, no, we didn’t follow each other there, we just got lucky we liked the same school—or at least that's what we used to tell people.We did our own thing: Again, Haley played soccer, and Matt discovered Greek life. Over those four years, our two lives began to merge into one more than they had before. We did practical things together like grocery shopping, cooking, studying, and hanging out at the Red Lion (a bar). Well, that was practical for Matt because he worked there, and Haley was his biggest fan—so it counts.Fast forward—because we’ve got 11 years to cover here.Now, we’re living a life cut from the fabric of our dreams. We adore our cozy little home in Denver, we love our jobs, and most importantly, we love each other.And after ten years together (not that anyone's counting), Matt finally—finally—put a ring on Haley’s frozen finger (it was snowing).We’re getting married! And we can’t wait for you all to join us in Vail, Colorado, to witness us promise to keep writing this story for the rest of our lives.

11 years in the making

Traveling in a larger group? There are loads of Airbnb and other vacation rental options right in Vail Village. This leaves you walkable to shops, restaurants, hiking trails and anything you need to enjoy Vail.

Vail Airbnb 

Flying into Eagle County Regional Airport is the most direct option to get to Vail Village. American and United fly here but you'll likely have to connect through Denver. This is a great option if you don't want to rent a car and make the 90 min drive from Denver International Airport to Vail.
