Where to stay
Under one roof,
as much as possible.
Our 12-suite house will be the center of the weekend. Invitations will indicate whether a room is being held for your party. If you’re looking for a hotel or rental nearby, use the house as your location reference.

Please do not book lodging based on assumptions. Tell us your dates in the RSVP and we’ll confirm your arrangement directly.
Getting there
Your route to the red rocks
Moab is remote—that is part of the magic. It also means waiting too long to book flights is a bad strategy.
Fly to Moab
Canyonlands Field Airport is the closest airport, about 20 miles north of town. Flight options are limited.
Airport pickup will be available from Canyonlands Field.
Fly + drive
Grand Junction is roughly a two-hour drive. Salt Lake City offers the most flight choices with a longer scenic drive.
Guests flying into Grand Junction or Salt Lake City will need to arrange their own transportation to Moab.
Transportation
A rental car is recommended unless we confirm group transportation for your arrival and departure times.
What to wear
Two events,
two moods.
The weekend has two distinct dress codes. Sunday is the formal night; Monday’s wedding is polished, celebratory, and easier to move in.
Sunday night
Southwestern Black Tie
Floor-length gowns, elevated cocktail dresses, tuxedos or dark suits, rich desert colors, turquoise, refined boots, and strong accessories.
Monday wedding
Elevated Desert Attire
Dressy separates, midi or maxi dresses, suits without the black-tie formality, polished boots, and footwear suited to uneven terrain.
