A beautiful day with a beautiful view. Sarah and Jeremy said “I Do” with an epic view of Durango and the surrounding mountains, followed by a secret garden getaway at The Rochester Hotel.

Amber leaves still clung to stubborn branches, and the mountain peaks had just a faint dusting of bright white snow. Guests were cozy in scarves and jackets as they witnessed Gabrielle and Michael exchanging vows beneath a soft gray sky. It was a beautiful moment wrapped in the fading glow of fall and the peaceful promise of winter.

Looking for a perfectly sweet and intimate wedding? Look no farther than Sam and Ryan’s beautiful day. With custom table numbers, sweet memorials, and epic dance moves this day was unmistakably Samantha and Ryan.

If I had to pick one word to describe Hannah and Brian’s day, it would most definitely be intentional. They put so much thought into every decision of the day, making sure it honored their love for one another and their people. Their timeline was built to avoid rushing from task to task, and they even made time to set up chairs in the forest for a quiet moment together before their ceremony. They snuck away for a private cake cutting to really soak in the moment. And to finish the night, danced alone to a meaningful song played by Rob Webster. They chose to slow down, savor every moment, and take in the joy of their wedding. 

A magical day full of heart warming moments, Disney details, and inside jokes.

Heath and Tina chose an unforgettable way to say “I do” — with an intimate ceremony on top of breathtaking Stoney Pass. Surrounded by sweeping mountain views and the quiet magic of nature, their love took center stage in the most awe-inspiring setting. It was raw, romantic, and perfectly them — a true adventure in every sense.

Churros. I could probably stop there, but I will elaborate. Lauren and Sam’s guests got to indulge in delicious, fresh churros during the rehearsal dinner, choosing flavors and toppings to suit their liking. A churro was the perfect finish to a Mexican inspired meal from Zia Taqueria. 

The only word I can truly think of that describes this cake is EPIC. Even years later, I still say this is the best wedding cake I have ever tasted. Not only did it impress with flavor, but this cake was massive! The couple’s aunts crafted this entirely vegan chocolate cake, making it even more special. When I laid eyes on its impressive five tiers I thought there was no way they would come close to eating it all, but Amanda and Holden’s guests managed to devour almost the whole thing! 

It was important to Trey + Gina that their ceremony centered around what was paramount to them, giving glory to God. They did this by ending their ceremony with a worship set, led by Trey himself. Guests were supplied with lyric booklets ahead of time, and got to give thanks to the Lord for the marriage they had just witnessed. While the main focus was worship songs, Trey, Gina, and Trey’s sister surprised us all with an incredibly impressive rendition of Cabinet Battle #1 from the musical Hamilton. 

This one hit close to home—literally. Harrison isn’t just a groom, he’s my brother. While I don’t usually recommend coordinating your own family’s weddings (there’s a lot of emotion behind the clipboard), it was such an honor to be part of his and Emily’s big day in this way. Watching someone you love so much marry their person, while also making sure the tables get set and the timeline runs smoothly, was a unique kind of magic. Exhausting? 

Jordan’s bridesmaids absolutely glowed in sunny yellow dresses—my favorite color palette of the entire season. Paired with soft blues and natural textures, the palette felt like a breath of fresh air: joyful, warm, and full of personality. Against the mountain backdrop of the Black Diamond Lodge, the colors popped in the most beautiful way. It was the kind of styling that felt both timeless and totally unique to the couple.

Top of the Pines is the kind of place that makes you pull over just to stare. Perched above Ridgway with postcard-worthy views of the San Juans, it’s giving Telluride energy without the Telluride price tag. On September 8th, Amanda and her crew turned this epic slice of Colorado into a full-on mountain-top bash. Imagine dancing under string lights with peaks in the distance and a breeze that smells like pine and freedom. Yeah… unreal.
