Save the Date

After much hemming and hawing, we have finally decided on a date: Saturday, July 25, 2009. We hope you will be able to join us! Official invitations are forthcoming, but in the meantime please drop us a line letting us know if you think you'll be able to attend so we can get a rough headcount.

We're going to have our marriage celebration at Elitch Gardens. For those of you who don't know, Elitch's is an amusement park. That's right: amusement park--roller coasters, a water park, people laughing, people screaming, funnel cake, etc.

Anyone who wants to celebrate with us will get admission to the park (including the water park) all day and dinner in the pavillion area. James and I will have some sort of exchange of vows (or something) to articulate our commitment to each other, but please note that in Colorado we don't need a minister or Justice of the Peace to marry us. Colorado is a DIY state when it comes to marriage. Don't believe me? I challenge you to read the law: Section 14-2-109(1) C.R.S. (1993). If you're not in the mood to look up the statute, just check out this information from the City and County of Denver. (Now do you believe me, mom?)

If you read our first post you'll remember that one of our guiding principles was that whatever we end up doing should be fun. This should be fun!


p.s. Summertime in Denver is fantastic...no humidity!

  2. My sister Bo is looking at invitations with roller coasters on them--she has made lots of cool invites for parties in the past, so we will have lots of stuff to show you!

  4. We're so excited for both of you and we're gearing up for the wedding on this side of the Atlantic! I definitely think that there need to be roller coaster invites!
    Can't wait to see you both!
