Welcome Events

We know Telluride isn’t the easiest place in the world to get to. If able, we encourage you to allow a little longer for travel than you might for a usual trip (we are recommending arriving Wednesday or Thursday). Since our guests might be getting in town a little early, we have planned a couple of our favorite Telluride activities on the days leading up to the wedding.

See your welcome bag for more detailed schedule. 

Wednesday

5:30pm – Dinner & s’mores followed by relaxing in the hot tub

thursday

10:30am – Stand Up Paddleboarding 
& BYOP (Picnic) at Trout Lake

6:30pm – Friends and Family dinner

friday

8:30am – Treats at Baked in Telluride & Bear Creek Trail Hike

3:00pm – Holy Hour & Confessions at St. Patrick’s

6:00pm – Rehearsal Dinner (transportation provided)

Saturday

Wedding day!
