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. More details coming soon. Let us know if there is anything you would love to do while you are here!
Wednesday
Dinner and s’mores welcome and relaxing in the hot tub
thursday
