Purple Passion {loveland, colorado}

I'm LOVING the gorgeous purple and blue jewel tones in this wedding. Jewel tones are a big hit with brides right now and this bride shows you how it's done right. This beautiful, breezy wedding is a great example of how to pull of a light, airy event perfectly. Sarah Christine Photography did a fantastic job capturing all the details and the fun spirit of the event. Enjoy!

Spring Bliss {boulder country club, co}

Amanda and Scott naturally have a rare grace and elegance that captivated the entire wedding on a chilly Spring day in Colorado to create a gorgeous event. They are clearly a special couple, exemplified by their two month honeymoon traveling throughout southern Africa. As much as we want to go to southern Africa, we too would love springtime at the Boulder Country Club where this wedding took place. An amazing shoot courtesy of Christina Kiffney Photography.

From the Bride: "When I saw Boettcher it instantly set the mood for the entire wedding. We used earth tones (mainly moss greens, cream and browns) and rustic details that were still very romanticin feeling. For me, it was all about the details. My florist captured the setting perfectly and I tried to incorporate my own ideas around what she and I had envisioned. I added rustic white wooden table numbers as well as slices of thick branches with guests names and table numbers as escort cards. My florist created a wishing tree and I created dove shaped paper cut outs tied with twine for the guests to leave their own personal message for us (in lieu of a guest book). Jennifer Rice of Cakes by Request added texture to our white butter cream iced cake to mimic the trunk of a big birch tree. From Etsy.com I ordered a wooden cut-out cake topper which incorporated the birds on our wedding invitations. I was also inspired by the Arts and Crafts architecture used throughout Boettcher Mansion and decided to use a traditional Arts and Crafts font on our invitations and wedding programs. I know that a Rustic theme is used often in weddings across Colorado but by adding my own personal details I feel I was able to capture something truly unique."

 

 


High on Life at 10 Mile Station {breckenridge, colorado}

In the wane of Valentine's Day, we know so many of you are newly engaged. We just wanted to share with you one of our favorite venues and to also remind you how important it really is to secure that location as soon as you can. Ten Mile Station in Breckenridge, is a beautiful venue, and because of this, typically sells out season after season. The staff there are amazing and for the lucky couples who get to tie the knot up there, you can actually see my house from across the valley. Cool, huh? My favorite has to be the cake, but I LOVE cake.

Anyhow, Kara Pearson Photography and a great group of Summit County Vendors captured this gorgeous wedding up at Ten Mile Station this past summer. Enjoy!
