OVERVIEW

We can’t wait to celebrate our wedding with you! This page is here to help you plan your stay and make the most out of our wedding weekend :)


We recommend staying in downtown Durango. This puts you close to our wedding venue at Ridgewood Event Center (a 20-minute drive southwest of downtown Durango) and allows you to explore the town we live in! We also suggest booking your accommodations in advance (Durango is a popular summer vacay spot).


To simplify transportation on our wedding day, we'll provide shuttle services between downtown Durango and Ridgewood Event Center. Details regarding the shuttle schedule, including pickup location, times, and frequency, will be finalized closer to the date.
