SUCH good advise! I always recommend my couples to be as clear as possible with what they want for their wedding day. Mentioning ADULTS only is a huge help for parents as they know they will need a babysitter or just won’t be able to come! ReplyCancel

A lot of this I would have never considered in planning a wedding, having no kids myself. It totally makes sense that it would be a sensitive issue to some. I love how you emphasized to hold your ground. Explaining that this would be a GREAT excuse for parents to take a break and relax/romance for the day would help too. ReplyCancel

These are SUCH important points! Altitude sickness is definitely a real thing and should be taken seriously! Great post! ReplyCancel

Great tips! Guests coming from out of town or couples who have their destination weddings in CO don’t always realize the impact that the altitude can have. Especially if there is drinking involved. Altitude sickness and a hangover are not a fun combo for anyone.ReplyCancel

Great pieces of advice. It would be a dream wedding to exchange vows with the one you love and have the mountains of Colorado in the background. However, family and guests should be made aware of altitude sickness to avoid any unwanted incidents that may ruin the couple’s special day. ReplyCancel

Thank you for sharing all the great pointers! I’ll be sure to remember this next time I’m in Colorado! I honestly didn’t even realize altitude sickness is a thing! I’m from the flat midwest so not much altitude around us! ReplyCancel
