The town of Breckenridge, Colorado sits at 9,600 feet above sea level, and the reception venue is at 10,295. If you have a serious medical condition, we recommend you talk with your doctor about the risks of high alitude.

If you have not experienced high altitude before, it can cause shortness of breath and headaches faster than normal. It is recommended to drink plenty of water while in high altitude.

Alcohol and Altitude

At higher altitudes, the effects of alcohol and drinking can be more pronounced than at lower elevations. Both alcohol and altitude will dehydrate you, so be sure to drink plenty of water to avoid a mountain sized hangover!
