The 35th Annual Marry Me & Ski for Free Valentine’s Day Mountaintop Matrimony ceremony and reception is a Loveland tradition where new couples are joined in matrimony, and married couples renew their vows in a mass wedding at 12:00pm sharp in Forest Meadow. The Mountaintop Matrimony is one of Loveland’s most popular events of the year and we look forward to your participation. The ceremony is done for all couples at the same time and lasts approximately 30 minutes. Couples are required to sign-in the morning of the event at registration in the Lower Ridge Room and are asked to be at Forest Meadow by 11:30am.

Participants and guests must be able to ride the lift up to the top and then ski or snowboard down the hill in order to attend the ceremony. There will be no transportation up or down the mountain for non-skiers/snowboarders.

Some stories at Loveland Ski Area come full circle — and Hanna’s is one of them.

Hanna Combrink is now in her 6th season at Loveland Ski Area, working on the top floor of the Loveland Sport Shop, a place that has been part of the mountain for decades. Last week, we featured the downstairs Adventure Center — this episode takes you upstairs, where Hanna helps keep one of the most respected on-mountain sport shops in North America running day in and day out. The Loveland Sport Shop has earned multiple gold medals from Ski Magazine and national recognition over the years, but what truly makes it special are the people behind the counter.

Hanna grew up right here in Clear Creek County, racing for the Clear Creek Middle School Ski Team at Loveland Ski Area as a kid. Long before she worked in the shop herself, she was watching her mom do the same kind of work — helping skiers and riders — in the Winter Park Sport Shop & Ski School. Now, years later, Hanna carries on that legacy, turning a childhood spent around base areas and ski shops into a career rooted in care, pride, and connection.

While studying geology at Red Rocks Community College, Hanna brings her passion for the environment and the outdoors into everything she does. From keeping the shelves dialed and the shop moving during the busiest days to taking the time to truly listen to guests and support her team, Hanna plays a key role in making sure the Loveland Sport Shop runs smoothly from open to close.

Behind the goggles, Hanna represents generations of mountain families, the love passed down from parent to child, and the quiet dedication that keeps this place special. This is more than a job. This is home.

Born and raised in Southern Vermont, Colby Ameden grew up with skis on his feet and racing gates as a kid, chasing speed, snow, and that feeling only skiing can give you. After college, the mountains kept calling—so Colby followed the snow west to Colorado, landing at Loveland Ski Area and finding his place downstairs in the Loveland Sport Shop at the Loveland Adventure Center. Now in his 12th season at Loveland, Colby has become a familiar and trusted face for guests starting their day on the mountain.

But this episode isn’t just about where Colby’s been—it’s about who he is on the mountain. Colby brings his heart, his passion for skiing, and his genuine love for the sport to every guest he helps. Whether it’s a first-timer getting geared up or a seasoned skier fine-tuning their setup, Colby treats every customer like a friend, making sure they feel confident, welcomed, and ready for an unforgettable day on the hill.

Behind the goggles, Colby is the kind of person who reminds us why we ski in the first place—for the joy, the connection, and the people who make the mountain feel like home.
