Love Notes
“Ciera took our vision and made it reality. She has a keen sense for design and aesthetics, and was able to combine our various personalities and interests to tailor an elopement event that was uniquely ours. We tend to be very indecisive as a couple, but Ciera was able to organize our thoughts and implement a workable strategy that made sense for us. She has a very easy going personality, and is able to turn a stressful situation into a walk in the park. Milestone events such as weddings can often times be overwhelming, but Ciera was able to make it enjoyable and fun.”
– Michael Ly, Groom
“We are working with Ciera for our wedding in Crested Butte. We first started talking to her long before we got engaged. She has been so helpful as we were exploring all of our options from sites to vendors to nitty gritty details. She has an eye for good taste and has the “in” on everything in the valley. We have unfortunately had to postpone til 2021 due to COVID, but I can tell you Ciera has been so supportive and totally on top of it. She walked alongside us as we waited painstakingly to make the final decision and gave us templates for contacting guests and vendors when the time came.”
– Megan Louderman, Bride
“Ciera was nothing short of spectacular as our wedding planner! Our entire wedding weekend was flawless, and she went above and beyond our expectations throughout every phase. We truly had no idea what we wanted our wedding to look like, but she was patient and helped guide us toward decisions that felt 100% true to who we are, always keeping our budget in mind and sharing her expertise on what was worth spending on and what we could save on.”
– Daliah Singer, Bride

Fun facts

Where do you find your design inspiration?

I find design inspiration all around me and most often on walks. I love taking in textures and colors on buildings and in nature and creativity is often sparked while I am outside.

What are your favorite kinds of couples to work with?

Adventurous couples! This usually means they love spending time in the outdoors whether that's a tandem mountain bike ride or a month-long trip in their camper van. This usually translates directly into the vibe and design of their wedding day and infusing personal elements of their adventurous spirit is my jam.

Do you travel for clients? If so, where?

Our passports are packed and ready to go! We work with couples all over Colorado as well as in Jackson Hole, Wyoming and even abroad. We have had weddings in Mexico and Jamaica and love to work in new locations.

What are your favorite activities to do in The Rockies?

I grew up ski racing in the Pacific Northwest so you can often find me on the slopes when there is snow. In the summer, when I can squeeze it in, I love getting out for a mountain bike ride.
