'09 - My maiden voyage to Telluride!


URL icon « on: December 19, 2008, 01:58:25 PM »

Hello all.  Festivarian Forum & Planet Bluegrass newbie here. I'll also be a newbie at the Telluride Bluegrass Festival next year (can't wait!).  My fiance and I are considering getting married while there.  Our only requirement is a spectacular view.  No fancy anything as we want a small ceremony.

I've never been to Colorado.  Advice on a small spot to say "I do" while viewing the panorama is much appreciated.

Thank you!

Thank you, Billy!  Wave 

Outside "I do's" are definitely a must.  Honestly, a clergy official and a small patch of land to stand on is all we need.  Not much planning required for us. 

Morning, midday, afternoon? Which is best?

Hey Wave You are a lucky girl. Telluride is a great spot to get married in. If it were me I would hike up to the waterfall.. It's an easy hike and so beautiful it will be remembered forever....

It rains in the afternoon generally around 2-3:00. But it does not last long,, generally. Best wishes to you. Cheers

If you arrive early we can all give you tours of multiple locations.  Bridal Veil Falls (drive). Bear Creek Falls (hike).  Tomboy Road (hike).  Top of the gondola (free ride).  The middle of Main St (easy walk).  They all are amazing views.

And if Hippie does up the oysters for you then I'll throw in some shots of Crunchy Frog to make sure you look and feel your best the next morning.

You folks are amazing!  Thank you for the warm, sincere welcome and advice.  I'm reading it all to my man right now.  I might have more questions for all of you.

Merry Christmas and Happy Happy Hanukkah!

Congrats!
My Wife and I were married in Telluride the Saturday before TBF.
We had the ceremony at the top of Coonskin and Telluride Trail just outside the San Sofia Gondola Station.
It was great to have a few days after the wedding to hang out and recover before TBF started.
Good Luck!
