Mark Your Special Day With Colorado Balloon Rides

By Mattie Knight


A ride in a hot air balloon is always an adventure, but it can be so much more. Colorado balloon rides have been the venue of choice for marriage proposals, weddings and even memorial services for the scattering of ashes. Whatever the special occasion, the ride and the magnificent view will make it a day to remember.

That special person in your life will really be impressed with a marriage proposal that takes place in mid air. This is truly a holistic experience, which reminds us all that we should be one with our environment. Imagine the thrill of hearing your loved one accept your proposal as you share the adventure of the ride. The story of this proposal will be told and retold for generations to come.

The same couple might also decide to have the wedding with a hot air balloon ride. Some couples opt to say their vows on land and then take the ride in a basket festooned with a big sign that says Just Married. Surprisingly, some baskets can accommodate up to seventy five passengers. More than enough for a small wedding up in the air that is sure to be an intimate affair.

Perhaps you recently lost a loved one with a passion for mountain climbing, or skiing or sky diving. Scattering their ashes from a lofty perch overlooking a magnificent mountain range is a fitting end to honor a life well lived. Some people will hold the entire funeral service at the take off site or mid air, while others hold a simple memorial. Family and friends of the deceased will appreciate the celebration of the life lost.

Couples can celebrate their anniversary every year in the same manner. The ride will bring back beautiful memories and create new ones at the same time. It is reassuring to know that Winter Park, CO, offers the rides any time of year. True aficionados of hot air ballooning may even decide to renew their vows with another fantastic ride.

A look into the couple's future may show the family expanding with children and in years to come, grandchildren. The minimum age for passengers is four years old. So it will not be long before the children can become a part of the action. This is a wonderful way to introduce children to the beauty and inspiration of nature.

Birthdays are another occasion for a hot air balloon ride. What an awesome gift. Invite a group of friends and family to share in the festivities. Everyone will be impressed by your adventurous spirit and hope for another invitation in the future. Save the birthday cake for before or after the ride.

Whether it is on a whim for no special reason, or to celebrate one of life's special moments, the ride will become a cherished memory. There is no other adventure as inspiring and meaningful for each passenger. Snow capped mountains, fields in bloom or the vibrant colors of autumn are each a unique way to really see the earth. Have a wonderful ride that will give you a new perspective on life.
