Welcome Reception
All guests—whether you’re traveling from afar or joining us from right here on the Western Slope—are invited to join us for a toast and light food to start the weekend.
Where: Final venue details are in the works. Check back a few weeks out for the address.
When: 4pm- 8pm, but please stop by at your leisure! This is an open-house style gathering, so feel free to swing through for a drink before or after enjoying our suggestions around the Grand Valley.
Dress Code: Come as you are. We won’t judge if you just finished a hike!
Kids: Kids are welcome to join the fun on Friday.

The Main Event
Where: The wedding ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, and reception will all take place at Bella Bolletino Farms.
When: The ceremony begins promptly at 5:00 PM; please arrive by 4:45 PM to find your seat.
Getting There: Transport will be provided for those staying at the Wine Country Inn. Those driving may leave vehicles at the venue until noon on Sunday if necessary. Uber & Lyft are not always reliable, please plan accordingly.
Dress code: We want you to be comfortable! For the gentlemen, please wear long pants and a collared shirt. Jackets are welcome but optional, ties are discouraged. For the ladies, we suggest High-Desert Cocktail attire—Think sundresses, jumpsuits, or dressy separates.
• A Note on Weather: We will be in the high desert in the spring; while the afternoon will be warm, the temperature drops quickly once the sun goes down. Please bring a layer to stay warm throughout the evening.
• A Note on Footwear: The venue features some grass and gravel surfaces. You may want to rethink the stilettos; block heels, wedges, or flat dress shoes are highly recommended!
Kids: We’ve decided to keep the ceremony and reception adults-only. We have childcare suggestions for those who need to travel with kids. If this policy affects your ability to attend, please reach out to us.

Coffee & A Hike
Before everyone heads home, join us for a slow morning and some fresh air. We’ll be fueling up with caffeine before hitting the trail—feel free to join for one or both!
10:00 am | Coffee: We’ll be at Bestslope Coffee Co. for a pre-hike cortado and chai.
11:00 am | Hike: Meet us at the Devil’s Canyon Trailhead.
The Trek: We’re planning a low-intensity loop to stretch our legs. Expect some sandy stretches and loose gravel, so sturdy footwear (hiking shoes or sneakers with good grip) is a must.
Kids: Kids and families are more than welcome to join us on the trail!
