With the sun glistening off the newly fallen snow, Missy and John celebrated their start to forever at the gorgeous Devil’s Thumb Ranch. Every little detail was perfect, with Daylene Wilson there to so beautifully photograph their incredible day. Vibrant pops of color provided by Pink Posey’s lovely florals were such a stunning contrast to the rustic beauty of the winter whites and greens. Great music was in full force with tag teaming of the live band The Crankers and Elite DJ. The stunning wedding cake and surprise groom cake were done by the talented Kelley Kakes. Thank you, Missy and John, for letting us be a part of your unforgettable winter mountain wedding!

A Beery Fun Wedding

On a gorgeous Denver summer afternoon, Meg and Jon committed their lives to one another at Cheesman Park. Memorable photos were captured by Two One Photography throughout some of downtown Denver’s most iconic spots, as well as at the reception venue held at the Denver Museum of Nature & Science. Vibrant, colorful florals were on display by the talented Silver Rhino and Gateaux created the cake masterpiece.

A special time was had by all, from the caricatures done by Fun Productions to the lively music by Elite DJ. The happy couple concluded their evening by riding off into the night in their Three Kings Pedicab. Thank you, Meg and Jon, for sharing your gorgeous day with us!

A Spring Wedding in Vail

On a crisp, fall day just outside of Rocky Mountain National Park, Carina & John were married at the lovely Della Terra Mountain Chateau. From the stunning autumn florals done by Statice Floral to the delicate French dessert tower by Romana Cake House, the talented Lucky Malone Photography was there to capture it all.

Live music from Bonnie & the Clydes kept the party going into the night, making it apparent that no one wanted this day to end. We were so honored to be a part of Carina & John’s beautiful day.

With the snow falling on their special day, Alison and Andy’s downtown Denver winter wedding at the Brown Palace was captured ever so eloquently by Daylene Wilson Photography.

Pops of red and green were interspersed throughout, reflecting the festive time of year and the Brown Palace Flower Shop contributed to that beauty. With snowflake ornaments hanging from Christmas trees as the place card display, the atmosphere of the whole day truly glistened as bright as the snow. Elite DJ kept the party lively to conclude a memorable occasion. Thank you, Alison and Andy, for letting us be a part of your special day!

Winter weddings have a flair of adventure and beauty unique to the season and when you bring an adorable kind-hearted couple from Connecticut to the mountains for a winter wedding at Devil’s Thumb Ranch, well, it becomes a little magical.  Milestone Imaging was a pleasure to work with and they’ve captured the sweetest moments beautifully.

Lucy designed her lovely wedding with some supportive input from Vinny and we were privileged to help pull everything together with day-of coordination.  A soft palette of blue and green complimented the natural setting and softened the hand-hewn beam interior of Broad Axe Barn.  Pops of anemone added a little dramatic flair in lovely arrangements from Somerset Floral Design while birch-wrapped vases, tree slices, and cute birch table name holders added an outdoor mountain element to guest tables.  Sprigs of evergreen submerged in elegant vases of water were topped with floating candles on the impressive king’s table and the look was a perfect combination of winter forest and cozy romance.

Elite DJ completed the experience with their expert music mixing.  Family and friends had traveled from around the country to celebrate with Lucy & Vinny and they celebrated well in the unforgettable winter mountain setting.

When a rapper marries Miss Colorado (2011), the party is bound to be electric, especially considering the two of them met as entertainers working for one of our favorite companies, Dance Trax Productions.  They know how to throw a party!  And when mom is also a former Miss America AND has friends with loads of candles, the style, endearing charisma, and decorating possibilities are pretty much perfect.  We’re thrilled to share some gorgeous artsy photos of the memorable soiree from Selah Photography.

The texture and flicker of candlelight back-dropped a thoughtful ceremony between graceful columns at Denver’s Park Church.  Laughter mixed with applause as the newlyweds walked out to a rap song Russ had written and produced for that moment.  His live performance, rapping to Diana as they were introduced into the Space Gallery reception met even louder enthusiasm and kicked off the party with a playful spirit.  Gold place settings on black linen set a classy modern tone around a romantic setting of candles and calla lilies , unique on each table (beautifully designed by Becky, Diana’s mom).  When it Was Band played smooth jazz to an appreciative audience as guests enjoyed cocktails on the patio under festive market lights and Dwight from Dance Trax crushed the dance floor after an exquisite dinner from All Love Catering.

Beautiful.  Intentional.  Fun-loving.  With a wildly enjoyed dance floor.  An absolute honor and pleasure to be part of!
