Question

Where should I stay?

Answer

See our travel tab! There is no onsite lodging at Arapahoe Basin. We recommend staying in either the Keystone Inn or Hyatt in Keystone which is approximaley 5 miles away. We will be providing shuttle transportation from these two locations. There are other hotels and airbnbs in the adjacent area to stay in, but note these are our only shuttle pickup and drop off points. There are no ride apps (Uber and Lyft) or taxis that service this area.

Locations: Keystone Lodge & Spa, 22101 US-6, Keystone Hyatt, 23044 US-6, Keystone Pick up times for each location: 3:45pm and 4:15pm Return times: Leaving Arapahoe Basin continuously, but last shuttle will be at 11pm If you choose to drive to Arapahoe Basin instead of taking the shuttle there will be free parking available but we strongly encourage you to use the shuttle service!

The Welcome Dinner and Wedding are both at high altitude (about 10,000 feet). Please drink lots of water ahead of time to avoid altitude sickness. There are also oxygen bars in town as well as O2 cans at the local grocery stores.

Question

Can I take photos during the ceremony?

Answer

We are having an “unplugged” ceremony (no phones or cameras). The greatest gift you can give us is to be fully present as we say our I do’s. We have hired professionals to capture this moment for us so please allow them to do their best work. After the ceremony, feel free to take as many photos and videos as you’d like.
