Saturday: Ceremony & Reception

Don't miss the lift

Arrive at Arapahoe Basin no later than 3:45pm.

Guests can arrive as early as 3pm. We'll open the bottom lodge bar for drinks, or find Matt in the parking lot for electrolytes (Coors Light).

Guests load onto the ski lift at 4:00pm. If you're not on the lift by 4:15pm, you'll wait for the ceremony to finish before riding up.

Shuttles run to Keystone all night, so feel free to take the lift down early if you'd like.

If you drove, you can leave your car overnight in the Gravel / Early Riser parking lot and take the shuttle instead, then pick it up the next morning.

Alpine Cocktail Attire: cocktail attire with layers and a jacket. It gets cold once the sun goes down.

Shuttles run between Kindred Resort and Arapahoe Basin from 2:45pm to 11:00pm.

Be our photographers.

Every photo you upload during the reception goes up on the wall, live. We want as many as we can get, so the two guests who upload the most take home a prize. The leaderboard runs all night and we'll announce the winners before the end.
