We adored creating this Colorado Garden Wedding for Laura and Fred on a perfect July day at the Wildhorse Inn in Tabernash, Colorado.  Pink garden roses, lisianthus, hydrangeas and veronica were accented with deep pink amaranthus for a perfect combination.  Instead of traditional archway, we hung a 6′ wide grapevine wreath wired with flowers and we draped the sides of the support poles with curtains (LOVE this!).  Vintage ski sign reproductions served as table names as we mixed and matched mason jars and cans filled with flowers.  Hay bales accented the sides of the tent (AND were rather handy for extra seating)

Paige Elizabeth (photographer extra-ordinaire!) captured the day with absolute perfection.  Click here to link over to her blog to see the rest of this story . . .

We are kind of humbled to be included in the Fall/Winter 2010 issue of Brides Colorado.  We absolutely adored working on JR and Amy’s wedding at Devils Thumb Ranch last fall with Jennifer Brankin of Poli Wedding Photography (yes . . .she is the same wonderful lady we did the Arizona wedding shoot with at the Ritz Carlton at Dove Mountain last month)  Here are a few more of our favorite photos from the beautiful November wedding . . .

A few pictures of Amy and Ben’s fantastic purple and orange Colorado wedding .  Rami designed a gorgeous and vibrant color palatte to stand out against the stunning green trees, lush grass and beautiful lake in Georgetown.  Thank you to Tiffany and CR Brinton for sharing the lovely pictures of the big day!

Small wedding – ok.  Middle of the week – sure.  One of the  … most  . . . fun couples on the planet – without a doubt.  Chris and Tanja’s August wedding at Devils Thumb Ranch was a hoot.  And kudos to any bride and groom who can plan a wedding and move across the country – in the same week.  Enjoy these beautiful images from our friend Karina Heneghan!

Rami got to have so much fun with the design of this Kings Table.  Potted plants and succulents were mixed with fresh floral arrangements made from blue hydrangeas, purple lisianthus, cosmos, aster and bells of Ireland.  For height we added some manzanita branches and for a lush feeling at the bottom, we ran green garland mixed with candles.  Each table setting was accented with a sprig of lavender and rosemary.

Now – I am not saying that our weddings are more fun than other peoples – but we do seem to attract those who dance . . .and those who do fan kicks.  The Fever played all night and this crowd never stopped dancing!

Thank you again to Tanja and Chris for remembering that this is FUN!  Check out Karina’s Facebook page for the rest of these pictures (and lots more dancing and photobooth silliness!)

I had so much fun working with Holly and Brian on their August wedding at Devils Thumb Ranch.  For flowers – Holly wanted something fun, colorful and unusual.  I was able to create a handgathered bouquet from mokara orchids, spider mums, dahlias and lisianthus. 

Tiffany and CR of Brinton Studios have once again blown me away with these pictures.  Of course, finding a HUGE field of daisies doesnt hurt. 

We created an aisle of flowers in mason jars and hung them off the shepherd hoooks.  The arrangements were reused as cocktail hour centerpieces.  For reception table – we used the same flowers in the bouquet and anchored them in river rock.  And instead of cake – Happy Cakes!!

Chinese lanterns and lightbulbs – what more do you need?

I loved every moment of this wedding and I adored getting to know this incredible family.  I wish you guys a lifetime of love and happiness and fields of daisies!

Gorgeous.  Here are a few of the beautiful images from our friend Casey Wigatow of TwoOnePhotography.  All I can say is – wow.  These pictures of Sunspot at Winter Park Ski Area are gorgeous.  If you are looking to get married on the top of the world, it’s hard to find a better place than Sunspot. 

Of course, the bride and groom aren’t too hard of the eyes either!

Love this Day.

I loved this wedding.  Fun, sassy and full of happy fun sunflowers.  Ashley and Kyle were up to create a beautiful mountain wedding but with a quirky twist.  Building off of a yellow and green theme – we were able to create a floral design that focused on textures.  The end result was a mix of sunflowers, daisies, mums, oncidium orchids, cymbidium orchids and billy balls.  I absolutely LOVED it.

We were thrilled to work with Jason G Photography (beautiful work!)  Wildhorse Inn (yummy and gorgeous) and Gabby from Save the Date Events (fantastic!) on this gorgeous day.  Ashley and Kyle, thank you for being fun and using polka dots!
