Our Wedding

We met in our Historical Geology class when our professor Sarah Rathburn introduced us, due to our mutual love of Moab, Utah. We started talking between classes and at Geology Club. On our Geology Club trip to the Gem and Mineral Show in Denver we spent the day together and went on our first date shortly after. It was our love of adventure that brought us together and it will be our love for each other that guarantees a happy and exciting future.

David and Evan have known each other since meeting back in high school. From the time spent out on the lake with his family to the nights riding around town on their bikes, Evan is a great friend to experience these years with.

Emily is one of the most amazing people I have ever had the pleasure of being friends with.  She is loving, compassionate, and honest.  Emily creates art that is as beautiful as her heart and soul.  I could have never met a better woman to call my best friend from adolescent to adulthood.   

Emily Joy Walker

Grant and David have been great friends since their early years in Junior high. Through thick and thin, Grant has helped us to grow and love. His compassion, humor, and talent is only a few of the things that make him an amazing friend.

Victoria is one of the funniest and intelligent people I have ever met.  She has an excellent sense of humor, is incredibly kind, and has a heart of gold.  Victoria never fails to find the good in everyone. She is full of wit and always has a hiliarious story on the backburner.  I could have never asked for a better friend to fumble through adulthood with. 

Victoria Longo-Peairs

Athena is one of the most creative and passionate people  I have ever met.  She is artistic, clever, and loyal.  Athena is the nerdiest woman I have ever known.  I love the time we get to spend together nerding out about comic book movies and trashy television. I could have never asked for a better friend to get drunk and watch murder shows with.

Steve and David met while attending college. Steve has been an outstanding friend and supporter. Golfing to fishing - Work hard play hard- Steve has kept us striving to enjoy everything just a bit better.

Q + A

Registry

I highly recommend that folks stay at Hermit Park Open Space after the wedding and reception. There are campsites and cabins located within the park. There are 15 semi-secluded cabins that can be reserved on a first come first serve basis, or through reservations on the Larimer County website. The cabins are comfortable and cozy providing the whole Rocky Mountain Experience. The cabins are equipped with propane lighting and heating (but no running water), table with benches, a port-a-potty per cabin, a 2-burner cook stove, and 4 padded bed surfaces. If you would like to stay in the cabins please remember that these are rustic cabins and you may need to provide your own essentials.

If you are flying into DIA (Denver International Airport) and all ready have a ride from Fort Collins to Estes Park. Green Ride may be a good option to arrive at your destination.

If you would like a rental vehicle. Enterprise is located outside of the airport and all around Fort Collins and Loveland.

The Stanley Hotel will terrify you with the exceptional staff, beautiful views, delicious in house restaurant, and vast historical past. Please visit the website to address any further questions. FYI: this hotel is rumored to be haunted.

The Stanley Hotel

The Best Western is easy to find, close to the scenic downtown Estes area, a grocery store, and the bus transit system into Rocky Mountain National Park. This is a clean hotel with friendly staff and a swimming pool. We were unable to block out rooms; however, many are still available.

Best Western Plus Silver Saddle

This is a resort located in Estes Park between the venue (Hermit Park Open Space) and Rocky Mountain National Park. It is a pleasant resort hotel with excellent service. The price is comparable to the Stanley Hotel. We have a block of 10 rooms blocked out under Weber.

Hiya Everyone, We have had a lot of questions about marijuana from friends and family. Here is a PSA that should answer all of your questions. <a href="http://www.fastcocreate.com/3042663/this-totally-chill-psa-explains-the-dos-and-donts-of-colorado-marijuana-law-in-the-most-laid">http://www.fastcocreate.com/3042663/this-totally-c...</a> If you have more questions please ask David or I.

Organic Alternatives

We truly hope that no one will participate in this activity; however, it is something to be mindful of. If you or a loved one start feeling the symptoms of altitude sickness (listed in the link) please seek medical attention. If you are asthmatic, please have your inhaler on your person at all times and make sure that someone knows where it is located. Altitude sickness is completely manageable and preventable, and it is nothing to be ashamed of if you begin to feel the symptoms.
