Our Wedding

It was love at 3rd margarita. Isn't that how the saying goes? Well, one Wednesday night in January 2018 (Wednesday 31st to be exact), Hannah and Sam were both at Illegal Pete's, of course. That's where everyone spent their Wednesdays. Hannah saw Sam from across the room and decided this was the night she would talk to him. With some help from the margs. She went over and introduced herself and the rest is history.

Our Story

Photos

I’m Ali, Hannah’s favorite sister. I’ve known her for 28 years. Whether it was coordinating dance performances together as little kids, or being lifetime ski buddies, or surviving the Camino together, she is simply the best. (Well, one of us was surviving, one of us was thriving, I’ll let you guess which one).&nbsp; As for Sam – I couldn’t imagine a better partner for my sister, and couldn’t be more thrilled to welcome Sam to the family as my brother (officially!) Hannah and Sam have built a beautiful life together that is very much their own. They are best friends, have a strong foundation of mutual respect, humor, and love for adventure and the outdoors. I don’t think many of us know another couple that can happily tackle a grueling morning backcountry skiing, immediately followed by a 10 mile mountain bike ride, but they do it all together, with a lot of joy. They are surrounded by the very best friends (and family, in my humble opinion!) Their house is always filled with a lot of wonderful people and a whole lot of laugher, and I am so excited to celebrate this moment with them.

Ali Bibbo (she/her): Best Woman

I have been good friends with Sam &amp; Hannah since college. I like to say I introduced them, but it was Hannah’s idea so I can’t really take too much credit there. Either way, I have so much love for these two and look forward to many more years of camping trips, bad jokes, biking, and crashing on their couch.&nbsp;

Carter Rhodes (he/him): Flower Boy & Best Man

I have known Hannah and Sam since college and in recent years have been known to be called one of Hannah and Sam’s boyfriends (lucky me!). I have seen so many iterations of their love and their selves. That might be their winning ticket–they are adaptable. Every challenge, every move, every dog, every sport: they have learned to continue living their lives and doing what they love, with each other. There is nothing I love more than Hannah’s goofy, always on the go, east coast spice (reminds me of home), and Sam’s Montana gentleman cowboy DIY personality. They have come into my life and given me so much love and community and I can’t wait to celebrate these two. I love seeing the way they lean on each other and how they both are growing and building their life together (with so many loving people surrounding them).&nbsp;

Kai Walsh (they/he): Ring Bearer

I've known Hannah and Sam since the early days of their relationship—mostly because I'm hitched to Hannah’s sister, Ali, and had no choice but to be part of the fun. Yet over the years, our relationship has grown close, built on shared adventures, inside jokes, and the occasional friendly humiliation. I've collected plenty of memories with the couple, including the time they gleefully yelled “Yardsale!” as they watched me flail down a ski mountain for the first time, and the moment Sam casually launched his dog’s ball straight into a bowl of tomato soup—because why not? But beyond the laughter and mishaps, I've had the privilege of witnessing firsthand the love, partnership, and unwavering support that Hannah and Sam share. They are a perfect match—one that I am grateful to celebrate not just on this special day, but for all the years to come. I couldn’t be more excited to stand by them as they embark on this next chapter (and to make sure Sam keeps his food and his dog’s toys separate).

Jordan Beyer (they/them): Officiant

I’m Sam’s long-distance Australian sister. Why are Sam and Hannah great for each other? That’s simple; they truly accept every version of each other, and have built a love on the foundation of respect + communication. I have no doubt they will continue to love and annoy each other until the end of time. They’ve built such a sweet life together, and I’m honored to be a part of this milestone!

Tessa Ucchino (she/her)

I genuinely don’t remember how or when I met Hannah or Sam but now I’m at their house at least once a week. From college frisbee tournaments to camping trips to festivals and cheering Hannah on at her races everywhere in between, I’m grateful they are a part of my life and so happy they are about to start a new chapter in theirs. Although I met Hannah long before Sam, it’s hard to imagine a world without the two of them together, planning the next adventure after their next adventure. I’m so excited to be able to celebrate their special day alongside them!

Savanna Guerrero (she/her)

Not to brag, but I’ve known Sam his entire life. With six years between us, I’ve had a front-row seat to all his awkward stages. From desperately trying to hang with the big kids, to dialing 911 during summer break, to me ugly-crying during his college drop-off (yes, me, not him)—it’s been a wild ride. Watching him go from little baby Samantha to Uncle Sam has been nothing short of entertaining. And now, he’s found Hannah, a woman brave enough to endure family vacations and fearless enough to go toe-to-toe during game nights. Truly, a perfect match. I’m excited to see what the future holds for these two, and let’s be real—Nora is still not-so-subtly hoping for some cousins.

Jasmine (she/her) & Nora Rickert

My fav things about Hannah and Sam…. They party hardy and ski harder. You know em you love em and we can’t live without them. I met Sam and Hannah in 2021 and have had the chance to watch their love blossom and evolve in the sweetest ways. They bring everyone in with open arms, dragging many of us along on their grand adventures or fabulously themed parties. I’m so grateful they share their love with all of us and look forward to ringing in this new chapter of their lives alongside them!&nbsp;

Justice Onwordi (she/her)

How time flies. Sam and I met in a dance exam at the end of our freshman year of high school. While making films together soon thereafter our friendship quickly blossomed into one of adventure, mischief, and the outdoors. Three bases that we still, almost effortlessly, are able to achieve upon reunion. Hannah, obviously, also holds these values in tight grasp allowing me to tag along as an easy third wheel. From mountains to deserts, it has been an honor to be a part of this growing, encapsulating love story, for which we all shall celebrate with great immensity for many years to come.

Joe Swartz (he/him): Flower Boy

Sam likes to tell the storyOf the morning we met, oh glorySneezed I did, Ha choo ha chooI released a bugger, out of my nose it flew&nbsp; With a spoon he went on eatingDevouring his cereal as if it were fleeting&nbsp;At a certain moment he took a pause&nbsp;My mucus nearly ended up in his jaws&nbsp; My goo landed on his breakfast like a cherry on top&nbsp;And created the story of how we met that I hear non stopAs for Han in her natural fashion&nbsp;Our way of meeting was rooted in much more passion&nbsp; We blended smoothies side by side&nbsp;Getting to spend so much time with her, I would have done it til I diedWe killed countless minutes giggling about fruit&nbsp;And certainly let out the occasional toot Berriegood was our place of employment&nbsp;Yet alas we left as it took our enjoyment&nbsp;Eleven years later and Hannah and Sam are still my bestiesI come over often and drink their wine like a pesty They let me poke them with needles and they take my herbal teas&nbsp;Han says it helps with her night sweats and Sams occasional wheeze&nbsp;I love you both dearly and am honored to be part of your magical dayLet’s celebrate you cause we know you both together slay slay slay

Macy Jones (she/her)

I've known Hannah and Sam since some unspecified time in college (yay pios)! My favorite memory with the couple is the time Sam almost drove us all off of a cliff in the remote forests outside of Aspen (but didn't - sick three point skills Sam). They're obviously perfect for each other, because they both love doing activities that lead to these types of situations. Plus, they're great dog parents! Can't wait to see what adventures the future holds for these two &lt;3

Kayleigh Kearnan (she/her)

My tyrannical boss, the people I confide in whenever I shit my pants, 3am elk steak chefs, dependable partners for any adventure, and my favorite people to explore the mountains and the world with - Sam and Hannah have filled all these roles and so many more for me over the past decade of friendship. Together they make a beautiful pair of adventurous philosophers who have an unrivaled ability to bring people together in this world and we’re all so much better off for having them in our lives.

Zane Heald (he/him)

I met Hannah freshman year of college playing club Ultimate Frisbee. Since then we've been teammates, roommates, and most importantly friends ever since. It's hard not to love her. Hannah is enthusiastic, adventurous, mischievous, artistic, dedicated, expressive, a promoter of shenanigans, fun-loving, driven, athletic... I could go on and on BUT to sum it up she's an infectious personality. I met Sam via Hannah and it's plain to see they're a great couple. These two put their whole hearts into everything they do and it's such a gift to be a part of their lives and to see them doing life together. I'm so happy to be celebrating Hannah and Sam's marriage and honoured to be in their wedding party. I can't wait to dance my pants off as much as possible in October in honor of you two! Love you guys a whole lot and congratulations on finding your partner in crime.&nbsp;

Christiana Hellinga (she/her)

I’m Joey! This picture was taken on the second-best day of my life after seeing snow monkeys in Japan with Sam and Hannah (and Kai). I say “second” because the best day of my life will be Hannah and Sam’s wedding.

Joey Dixon (he/him)

While the happy couple and I do share an alma mater, it was after college that we became close. Sam and I nerded out about Toyota for about an hour during a camping trip, and that was that. Over the years, we’ve shared a lot of memories—many of which make it clear why these two were made for each other. Even if they don’t appreciate it when I share my story of glory in 8th-grade basketball (ask me at the reception), I’ve been the beneficiary of their endless generosity, humor, and infectious ambition. I’m so happy that two of the best people I know are tying the knot!

Thomas Enck (he/him)

I know Sam and Hannah from our days at the dirty DU. Sam and I spent endless hours exploring the great outdoors Colorado has to offer. I love Sam and Hannah as a couple because they always go out of their way to make people feel included in their lives.🔥🔥🔥

Jack Poole (he/him)

I met Sam and Hannah during the strange and turbulent time known only as “Sam’s Barnard Days”. Sam and I bonded out of necessity in Eastern Montana, the location of this lovely portrait that Sam took of me. He hit a rut so hard it bounced my head off the ceiling of the truck seconds later. I got to know Hannah shortly after during a quick escape to Denver. Over the next several years, these two have been my go-to phone call when I’ve hit the highest of highs and the lowest of lows, and I’ve been happy to pick up the phone when they call as well. We’ve shared big ski days, poorly timed jokes, cross-country puppy delivery missions, family dinners, and followed through on favors when most other friends would balk at the ask. These two are some of the best, weirdest, coolest people I know and they’re stuck with me for life.
