While I understand that it’s tradition to get ready separately on a wedding day (for reasons ancient and bizarre), I’ve always felt that it creates artificial jitters. After all, this tradition takes you away from your person. The one you lock eyes with across the room to share an inside joke with a mere look….
Michelle and Jamie fell in love in one of the most inhospitable places in the world. They’ve been through more in the past few years than most couples endure in a lifetime. But their determination to meet life head on and find joy wherever they are is worthy of emulation. Including during their Boulders Black…
At this point, it’s kind of a cliché to talk about how important being a good team is to marriage. But I’m going to anyway, because Sara and Santana were one of the best examples I’ve ever seen of this, starting even before their spring wedding at Della Terra! From my very first phone call,…
Weather in the Rockies can be confusing, even to those of us who have lived here for a while. Take Eva and Joe’s spring wedding at the Boulders, for example. The week leading up to their wedding had sunny and warm weather. But the day of the wedding called for several inches of snow. Luckily,…
We started out this year’s Pride Month with Leigh and Sam’s gorgeous spring wedding at the Greenbriar Inn, and it couldn’t have been a more beautiful celebration. There’s no way for me to encapsulate this couple’s amazingness better than one of their attendants did during his toast. Matthew grew up in a place that wasn’t…
Wedding days will go wrong. They’ll be imperfect. But with the right attitude, they can be more enjoyable and create more lasting memories than a “perfect” wedding day. Nothing could have illustrated this better than Emily and Luther’s Wild Basin Lodge wedding last weekend! The Wednesday before their wedding found me shopping for snow chains…
Kristine and Dustin warned their guests that their spring wedding at the Black Canyon Inn might see any kind of weather. After all, springtime in the Rockies is notorious for its variety. But it turned out that the Weather of the Day was perfect for their Workout of the Day with the right amount of sun and just a little breeze.
No matter how big or small your wedding is, I can promise that at some point, you’re going to worry about the weather. Will it be too hot? Will it rain? Maybe your dream is for your ceremony to take place in a veritable snow globe. For Jackie and JJ’s Brainard Lake elopement, we checked…
When Shelby first reached out to me to talk about her St Vrain Wedding, she warned me that she and Brian were going to do things a bit differently. Their wedding wasn’t going to be “typical.” But Jesse and I long ago left behind the idea that there’s a right or wrong way to do…
I knew I liked Eden and Cade before we ever met them in person. After all, how many people are willing to meet two complete strangers in a remote location, over 1,000 miles from home? (Personally, I’d be worried that I was being lured into an elaborate horror film plot…but I also tend to have…
Aspen is gorgeous, but it’s not exactly the easiest place to get to. And in March, when much of the country is finally reveling in warmer temperatures, Aspen gets snow. So how do you convince more than 100 of your friends and family to make the hike and brave the weather for your Aspen wedding?…
If there’s such a thing as having too much fun, Cat and Bryant flirt heavily with that line. It was evident when Jesse and I first met with them for their Woodward Copper aerial Alt Session. And it was all the more obvious at their Wedgewood Boulder Creek wedding. At one point during the portraits,…
