Our Wedding

May 17, 2015 was a day we'll never forget!&nbsp;

After two to&nbsp;three weeks of chit chat&nbsp;on a&nbsp;dating app, Clark finally&nbsp;asked Katy for her&nbsp;phone number, and called&nbsp;her to go to&nbsp;brunch. Thankfully, she agreed!&nbsp;



It was a&nbsp;perfect spring morning,&nbsp;so&nbsp;it&nbsp;was only appropriate that we&nbsp;meet at 10:30 a.m. at a local Denver restaurant that served tequila and breakfast tacos. Clark arrived early to try and&nbsp;snag the perfect table, but upon arrival he found out the restaurant didn't open until 11:00&nbsp;-- oops! Katy then&nbsp;arrived,&nbsp;and with&nbsp;her usual, easy-going attitude, didn't mind heading across the street to pass some time at a pub where a raucous crowd of English Premier&nbsp;League fans had been watching soccer and drinking pints of cheap beer&nbsp;since 6 a.m.. Our first date was off to a great start!



Throughout&nbsp;brunch, every&nbsp;conversation and&nbsp;every laugh all&nbsp;felt so natural and easy. Not wanting to say goodbye after our 3 hour-long food and beverage marathon,&nbsp;Clark pulled&nbsp;the ultimate "can't say no"&nbsp;wild card and asked Katy if she'd like to go meet his dog,&nbsp;and&nbsp;walk around Washington Park. Clark still claims&nbsp;that Katy is "just in it for the dog," which is why Heidi has&nbsp;been given leading roles in our engagement and wedding ceremony.











Brunch led to the walk, the walk led to more&nbsp;conversation&nbsp;at a&nbsp;local&nbsp;neighborhood spot,&nbsp;and that led to dinner. It was the longest first date in the history of first dates, and neither of us would have changed a thing!&nbsp;











Since that special day, our time together has been one spectacular&nbsp;adventure. We've explored foreign countries and hometowns, celebrated&nbsp;friend's weddings, endured grueling hikes,&nbsp;and reached the summits of Colorado's highest&nbsp;peaks. Katy has become accustomed to&nbsp;watching major championship golf and Duke basketball, and Clark can now tolerate&nbsp;HGTV.&nbsp;While we're still&nbsp;warming up to the idea of&nbsp;passionately&nbsp;cheering for each other's beloved Seattle Seahawks and Carolina Panthers, we&nbsp;agree on the Broncos, and how much we despise the&nbsp;Patriots. Together with Heidi, our wolfpack is one.







We're so grateful to our family and friends&nbsp;who have supported us through the first few years of&nbsp;our&nbsp;love story, and we can't wait to celebrate our special weekend with you in Telluride!&nbsp; 











Love,&nbsp;

Our Story

Accomodations

Katy and Clark encourage guests&nbsp;to&nbsp;stay in the town of Telluride, but if guests are able to find a place in the town of&nbsp;Mountain Village that is located near the&nbsp;Gondola, that is a good option, as well. The Gondola ride&nbsp;provides&nbsp;spectacular scenery,&nbsp;lasts only 15&nbsp;minutes each way and is always free.&nbsp;

The only historic Telluride hotel, built over 120 years ago, the New Sheridan is a wonderful place to stay located right in the heart of Telluride.

When making your reservation, please mention the Grein/Witzleben&nbsp;wedding.&nbsp;

New Sheridan Hotel

Howdy Folks,&nbsp;

For those of you flying to Montrose, here's a quick note about rental cars:&nbsp;you likely do not&nbsp;need one. If you are&nbsp;staying in the town of Telluride or in Mountain Village within a short walk of&nbsp;the Gondola, 99% of you will NOT&nbsp;want&nbsp;to rent a car.&nbsp;Telluride is a very walkable town and there are endless activities to keep you occupied for weeks without leaving the area. There is also a free shuttle service called the Galloping Goose, as well as a&nbsp;free&nbsp;call ahead shared taxi&nbsp;service called Dial-a-Ride.&nbsp;



Disclaimer:&nbsp;If you're renting a house that is&nbsp;not within walking distance to town or the Gondola, a rental car might be something to consider.



From the Montrose Airport, you simply need to book a roundtrip&nbsp;reservation with&nbsp;Telluride Express. Remember to mention the bride or groom for 10% off! They will take you directly to your hotel or rental home, and pick you up the day you leave.&nbsp;

Friends and Fam,&nbsp;

We love all of you dearly, and want to make sure you are well enough to party with us the entire weekend! We&nbsp;cannot stress enough how important it is for all of you to drink copious amounts of water leading up to, and during your visit to Telluride.&nbsp;Please take this advice seriously. It's a lot easier to prevent altitude sickness&nbsp;than it is to&nbsp;overcome it! If you're easily affected by high&nbsp;altitude, the doctor has a prescription for that (and it's not more cowbell). It's called Diamox. It does not replace the need for lots of that high quality H2o.

The weekend is a&nbsp;marathon, not a sprint. Good rule of thumb:&nbsp;sneak one glass of water in there for every drink -- especially for those of you who are particularly passionate about&nbsp;open bars.&nbsp;

Hydrate

Brown Dog Pizza, La Cocina, Siam, Baked in Telluride and Oak are a few of our favorite places to eat in Telluride.&nbsp;

Our Favorite Eats

Our Favorite Drinks
