Happy Shopping!

Our beautiful brides focused on the intricate details of their special day and it turned out extraordinarily.  They chose a chic vintage-country theme that could not have been more appropriate to their unique interests and tastes. Surrounded by a charming country-garden scene, the couple shared their promises with one another among an intimate group of friends and family.

What wedding isn’t complete without a trampoline? Brides and guests jumping for joy.

Their special moments were beautifully captured by This Modern Life Photography.

The Teacup Shop provided a variety of pastries from fruit tarts to delectable cakes for any sweet tooth craving.

As the sun cascaded behind the Colorado mountains, the brides’ chic reception and feast began.   The tent held custom built wooden canopies that were adorned with candle-filled chandeliers and hanging ornaments.  The tables were overflowing with flower arrangements from Sweet Pea Flowers and plates full of mouth-watering food by Big Bang Catering.

Everyone danced into the night enjoying music from Michael Lawrence.

Sitting by an open campfire, guests melted marshmallows and made some tasty smores.

Congratulations Beth and Sarah!

Thank you to all of our wonderful vendors; this was a truly beautiful celebration.

In 1958, a student tries on a gown for her wedding – doesn’t this look like Kleinfeld’s?

Dancers sprinkle petals on the aisle before a wedding, 1951. And we thought the couple boogeying down the aisle with their wedding party was original!

A bride in 1961. Heaven!

This past August, Brooke and Pat tied the knot with a funky, fresh style – they wanted bright, vibrant colors, and a pop-art, Andy Warhol theme. Since they are both native Coloradans, choosing the City Park bandstand was a romantic, urban choice for this couple. They floated through a sea of bubbles down their custom red runner.

The masters at Denver Design Works and custom linens from A Boulder Affair transformed the Marco Polo ballroom at The Curtis Hotel to create a pink and orange party space. They also changed the patio area into a Miami-esque blue lounge for guests – an urban oasis.

The bride and groom were serenaded by recording artist Jessica Sonner for their first dance.

And later in the reception, guests were treated to abstract performance artists by Borillo Entertainment.

The staff at the Curtis hotel created a menu that was perfect to theme – bubble gum martinis, milk shake shooters with an oreo garnish, and tiny Campbell’s tomato soup with grilled cheese sandwiches. Divine!

These amazing images were provided by Kim Nodurft, what a photographer!!

From inspiration to wedding day, we were so excited to help put this amazing wedding into reality!

We wish Patrick and Brooke all of the love and happiness that we saw on their wedding day for years to come!
