Hotel Boulderado
Wednesday & Thursday, September 23 & 24
2115 13th St.
Boulder, Colorado
The Hotel Boulderado was the first luxury hotel built in Boulder, officially opening on New Year's Day in 1909. The five-story building features a blend of Italian Renaissance and Spanish Revival architecture and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
The first time we walked into this lobby shortly after moving to Colorado, Holly said “I want to get married here.” So we’re getting married here!
Pearl Street
Pearl Street is a four block pedestrian mall in the heart of Boulder. It’s packed with shops and restaurants, and it’s only a block away from the Hotel Boulderado! Here are some of our favorite spots on Pearl Street (links open in Google Maps):
Restaurants
Avanti Food & Beverage (there’s also a rooftop bar with an incredible view)
Shopping
Almost every brand of outdoor clothing you can think of (The North Face, prAna, Cotopaxi, Fjällräven, Helly Hansen, etc.)
Acreage by Stem Ciders
Friday, September 25 - 12:00pm
1380 Horizon Ave A,
Lafayette, CO 80026
Acreage is a farm-to-table restaurant with a full bar including 20 ciders, and a full cider production facility. Plus it has a huge outdoor area with some of the best views in town!
Holly, Scott, & Janey’s House
Friday Evening and Saturday
4811 Astor Pl
Brighton, Colorado 80601
Come hang out with Janey! Just be prepared to tickle that tum. We’ll keep it casual with pizza Friday night. Saturday will be cookout-style, including a Chick-Fil-A nugget platter (Holly’s only demand) and a Bloody Mary bar. And lots of wine.
And if anyone’s around Sunday, we’ll have all the NFL.

FAQs
While early check-in isn’t guaranteed, please share your flight information with Holly & Scott and we will request early check-in on your behalf. If your room is not ready early, you can leave your luggage at the hotel and start exploring Pearl Street!
If you’ll be in really early, you could check out Rocky Mountain Arsenal on your way from the airport. (see below for more info)

How do I get to Pearl Street?
Simply walk south from the Hotel Boulderado… It’s only a block away!
What should I wear?
For the wedding photos / ceremony / dinner, we are recommending dressy attire.
Women examples: cocktail dresses, midi dresses, floor-length dresses, elegant jumpsuits or pantsuits
Men examples: suits, dress shirts with slacks, optional jackets or ties
All other activities are casual!
What if my dressy clothes are wrinkled from my suitcase?
Same-day laundry services are available through the hotel’s local partner. You’ll simply drop off your garments at the front desk on Wednesday night, they’ll call them in on Thursday morning, and your pressed clothes will be returned in time to put them on and meet in the lobby for photos before the ceremony! Costs will be charged to your room.
How long does it take to get to Acreage from the Hotel Boulderado?
It is approximately a 30-35 minute drive. We all have late check-out from the Hotel Boulderado at 11:30am on Friday, but please give yourself time to complete your check out, receive your car from valet, pack it up, and head out to arrive at Acreage by 12pm.
How long does it take to get to Brighton from Acreage?
It is approximately a 35-40 minute drive. It could be worth asking for early check in at your Brighton accommodation. Or you could kill time with an activity like the Rocky Mountain Arsenal! (see below)
Is there anything to do besides eat and drink?
Of course! If you feel like being active and taking in some nature, there are a few hiking trails within a short drive of the Hotel Boulderado:
Over near Brighton, there are some fun options too:
Rocky Mountain Arsenal National Wildlife Refuge
You can drive the entire park without ever getting out of your car. Use the Refuge wildlife drive audio tour for interesting info as you go.
We’ve seen bison, coyotes, deer, prairie dogs, and more.
There’s also a visitor center with lots of info about the history of the area
Tip: Wildlife tends to be more active in the mornings
$10 parking fee
Great for a walk by the water - tons of birds…even bald eagles!
There’s also a visitor center with info about the area
Anything else I should know?
Don’t forget about the altitude! Boulder sits at 5,430 feet above sea level. Drink plenty of water and take it easy!
