Reception

Our Wedding

We first met at work, though we never actually worked directly with each other. Our paths seemed to cross constantly whether in passing or during shared meetings. And while Adam always had a crush on Yuri, it wasn’t until an award trip to Miami that we truly connected. That trip turned out to be the spark that would change everything. What began as casual conversation soon deepened into something much more with hours of laughter, shared dreams, and a connection that felt effortless. By the time we returned home, we both knew we’d found something rare and special. "The last three years together have been the most joyful of our lives filled with romantic dinners, cozy nights at home, enjoying baseball games, and blending our families together. Adam has not only become a devoted dog dad to Audrey, but he’s also grown into an amazing and loving part of my children’s lives. Watching him build such a strong bond with them has been one of the most beautiful parts of our journey. Through every adventure, we’ve not only grown as a couple, but as individuals learning, evolving, and supporting one another in ways we never imagined possible." - Yuri "I thought I was happy, until I realized that I didn't even know what true happiness was. Building a relationship with Yuri and getting to experience the things I love with the woman I love has made my life exponentially better." - Adam As we prepare to say "I do," we are overwhelmed with love and gratitude for the family that has shaped us and the friends who have stood by us. We are so thankful to be surrounded by both friends and family on this special day and cannot wait to celebrate with you all in Estes Park this July!﻿

Stephen King's "The Shining" is a terrifying tale about a hotel keeper gone mad, but what inspired King to come up with the character's madness?&nbsp;<a href="https://www.tripsavvy.com/the-haunted-stanley-hotel-4108817" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Stanley Hotel</a>. Superstitious guests should relax; the rumors of haunted rooms and ghosts roaming the halls only became popular after the book was written.&nbsp;
