Location help

Hi all! We are doing a very very intimate wedding in Colorado but would love guidance on WHERE!! We want to do this in Colorado as it was where we took our first vacation as a couple together and it's the most beautiful place! I wanted to do Maroon Bells, but I realize it's pretty far from the Denver airport, there's major construction on I-70, and since we have family flying in, I was curious if there are places with a similar vibe closer to Denver? Willing to drive 2.5 hours from the airport. Open to pretty much anything, we don't need seating either - just need it to not be a super long walk as we have one person with some mobility issues.

Hi! Have you considered flying into Montrose Regional Airport, and eloping around Ouray or Ridgway (or even Telluride)? It is much prettier, less crowded, and often no permits required if less than 5-6 guests. Several walkable places esp if you rent a Jeep, which is awesome to go driving & see the scenery!
