The Challenge

Kristie and her partner wanted a breathtaking mountain wedding for 150 guests, but the remote canyon location presented a logistical challenge: getting everyone there and back from Fort Collins safely and comfortably. They needed a planner who could manage both the beauty of the day and the complexity behind the scenes.

The Solution

Gary and the Mish team took ownership of every detail, creating a seamless experience for guests and the couple alike:

  • Coach bus transportation coordinated from Old Town Fort Collins to the Mishawaka and back

  • Full catering planned and executed by the Mish kitchen team

  • End-to-end event coordination with Gary as the couple’s dedicated point of contact

  • Day-of presence ensuring every element came together exactly as envisioned

What The Client Says

“Our wedding at The Mishawaka was beyond perfect, thanks to Gary, the amazing event coordinator and the Mish team! From start to finish, Gary was dedicated to bringing our vision to life. His attention to detail and ability to manage everything seamlessly made the entire experience feel effortless. The venue itself is breathtaking, but it was Gary’s warmth, expertise, and steady presence that made our day come together flawlessly. He and the Mish team helped us plan all of the food (which was exceptional!) and bus 150 ppl from Old Town Fort Collins Up and Back. It couldn’t have been more perfect and everything we desired.”
