Couture Colorado is featuring Meg & Bryan’s Stanley Hotel wedding today on their blog and we’re thrilled to see the pretty red peonies from Boulder Blooms, the striking images from Two One Photography, and this stylish kind-hearted couple from Chicago on one of our favorite blogs! Congrats, Meg & Bryan, and thanks for letting us be part of your celebration!
Intelligent, creative, and fun-loving, Adrienne and Scott have the kind of smiles that light up a room and inspire people to stick around and revel in the happiness. The fabric of their lives is full of kind-hearted family, strong friendships, adventure, and lots of laughter. These qualities naturally produced a bridal party of twelve, over two hundred wedding guests, touching toasts, and a packed dance floor all night at Mile High Station in Denver. Kelly Lemon Photography did a superb job of capturing the details, the joy, and the epic hora (with music from the fantastic Deja Blu Band). We’re thrilled to share her photos on our blog!
Adrienne’s color palette was inspired by her love of champagne. From the lightest blush of a sparkling Rosé in floral accents to the metallic tones of bridesmaid dresses to the silver streaked sheer overlays, the colors complimented a Colorado urban chic vibe. An aspen chuppah from Statice Floral Design adorned with streams of white ribbon framed the couple’s traditional Jewish ceremony in a turn-of-the-century steel & ironworks building. Exposed brick, wrought iron, and striking Edison bulb chandeliers lent a definite industrial vibe to the historic space.
We worked with Adrienne and Statice Floral to create a variety of centerpiece styles to soften the space. Tall centerpieces with curly willow branches extending from white hydrangea, sprays of white orchids, and accents of dusty miller complimented the high ceilings and drew the eye up. Trios of ivory pillar candles clustered with smaller floral arrangements in silver vases warmed the room with their glow. And lower arrangements in rustic wooden boxes were a nod to the beloved Colorado outdoors.
Guests found their escort cards attached to vintage style metal keys, carefully pinned to a sparkling champagne-inspired metallic backdrop. Ceremony programs were also designed by Adrienne and her mom. The various layers were hand-tied together and included a personalized mad libs page, an entertaining guestbook substitute that guests enjoyed filling out throughout the evening.
You know it’s a good wedding when the hora (a traditional Jewish dance where all guests encircle the newlyweds as they are lifted up on chairs together during the dance) is so wildly enjoyed that one of the guests has to go to the ER for a possible sprained ankle afterwards. You know it’s a really good wedding when the injured party delays his departure until toasts are over and returns as soon as he can to join the end of the party. Adrienne and Scott’s wedding was one of those—a really good wedding, full of kind-hearted family, strong friendships, a bit of adventure, a lot of laughter, and those two smiles that lit up the room all night.

Lea & Blake are a sweet, thoughtful couple whose creative touches made this Breckenridge wedding an absolute pleasure to be part of! We love the mountain graphics on invitations designed by the couple and their gold-lettered menus with entree choice medallions made for a decadent yet playful place setting. Glittering flags in the mini-desserts from Shamane’s Bake Shoppe were another sweet touch. The mountaintop ceremony at Seven’s Restaurant had a stunning view and a beautiful plethora of ribbon streamers added color and grace to the outdoor altar, aisle chairs, and bridesmaid bouquets from Statice Floral Design. The whimsical touch was carried into Lea & Blake’s reception, tastefully accenting the interior space. One of our favorite details creatively captured by Casey of Two One Photography is that scene in the forest when the couple stole away for a moment together to celebrate with some bubbly.
It was truly a pleasure to be part of your day, Lea & Blake! We wish you many sweet occasions to celebrate in your life together!

Amy and Scott are a truly beautiful couple, inside and out. We had the pleasure of coordinating their wedding experience which included a horse-drawn wagon ride (with a few umbrellas) to a stunning mountain meadow ceremony at Devil’s Thumb Ranch followed by an intimate family dinner in an Italian styled wine grotto. On Day 2, the vibe changed to Colorado urban as family and friends gathered in Denver at the History Colorado Museum for a party celebration. Guests enjoyed private access to the “Toys of the 50’s, 60’s, and 70’s” exhibit during cocktail hour and the fourth floor patio offered downtown city skyline views while music from Elite DJ kept the dance floor lively all evening. Statice Floral created custom terrarium style centerpieces, incorporating succulents, moss, tree slices, and pops of mango roses for an earthy Colorado look. A delicious assortment of mini pies from Shamane’s Bake Shoppe displayed on tree trunks were labeled with little wooden signposts crafted by the groom. Daylene Wilson did a phenomenal job of capturing the graceful style both days and it’s a treat to relive the moments of this kind-hearted couple and their wonderful families.

Aly & Kyle met in high school and have been together ever since. They are genuine, fun-loving, true soulmates with a graceful style that fits the elevated mountain vibe at Larkspur, Vail. Their beautiful dog, Myla, the breathtaking backdrop of the Rocky Mountains, the natural touches of understated elegance, and the milk & cookies on their dessert bar are just a few of the sweet details that made this weekend special and a true pleasure to be part of. From the ceremony arch constructed by the father of the bride to the high school yearbook that served as a guest book, we loved all the personal and special touches throughout the day. We’re always excited to work with Brinton Studios and to share the photos they capture so perfectly. Perfect Petal brought the bride’s vision to life and the florals and design were fabulous. Congratulations, Aly & Kyle!

Molly and Jeff are such a sweet couple and their wedding day details reflected this in the soft romantic bouquet hues of roses, astilbe, & dusty miller (from the talented Bella Lu Floral), the delicate swoop of Molly’s lace gown, and the elegant golden script of table numbers. Surrounded by a fun-loving crowd on an epic Colorado ranch (Devil’s Thumb Ranch), this celebration was beautifully captured by Brinton Studios (who also provided the popular photobooth) and DJ’d by one of our favorites, Jay Kacik of Standing Room Only.

Coral is such a fun refreshing color and when it gets paired with green at a June mountain wedding at Devil’s Thumb Ranch, well the combination is just striking! Katie and Haydn had lots of other lovely details as well. The hand-rolled ceremony programs, the paper fans with handles wrapped in calico fabric, sprigs of baby’s breath in bridesmaid updos, the metallic caligraphy on seating assignment cards…we especially loved the green taffeta linens under coral napkins and gorgeous arrangements from Swank Stems. One of our favorite djs, Yan of Elite DJ & Entertainment, kept a lively dance floor and Aventura did a fantastic job capturing the creative details and the sweet moments of this delightful weekend.

Heather & Jared’s wedding celebration was an idyllic weekend in Beaver Creek that kicked off with rehearsal dinner at CBar at the resort’s base. Afternoon showers on the wedding day cleared just in time for Jake, the couple’s handsome dog, to perform his ring bearer duties in style as guests from across the country and even Japan witnessed an exchange of vows with verdant slopes in the background and the relaxing rush of a river just over the stone ledge. Flowers in a profusion of color inspired by summer wildflowers were arranged by Statice Floral in weathered wooden boxes, bark-wrapped containers, and glass vases and displayed on the dark rich wood of walnut tree slices, sanded and hand-finished by Jared. A sumptuous dinner served by the excellent team at Westin Riverfront Resort & Spa was followed up with shot ski fun at the bar, a giant Jenga game, and guest appearances in the photobooth from Fabio, Justin Bieber, and Edward Cullen, whose cutouts later found their way to the dance floor made lively by DJ Eric from Elite Entertainment. A huge thanks to Brinton Studios for their gorgeous images of this thoughtful, smart, good-looking, & entirely enjoyable couple!
