Would a wedding palette designed around lilacs look like this?

What a beautiful idea!

7:00am – Wake up, answer emails received overnight (about 75-100).  Make breakfast, protein is important to our days!

8:00am – Visit the gym, staying in shape is important to be able to be physically fit for the demands in wedding season.

9:00am – Drop the little guy off at school.

9:30am – Open the office, check in with the interns and staff on any outstanding issues. Check email (another 50), post daily blog, listen and return voicemail from overnight.

10:00am – Meet with a new photographer looking to introduce their work to us.

10:30am – Coffee with established travel agent to catch up on honeymoon trends and recent shared clients.

11:00am – Tasting at a local hotel for an upcoming wedding with clients. Review of menu, changes, linen choices, etc.

1:00pm – Back at desk, book vendor meetings for four out of town clients next week, all vendors must agree to meet at our office, to Skype with our clients. Navigating the schedule of over 20 vendors, not an easy task!

1:30pm- Negotiations call with a venue in southern Colorado to see if the food and beverage minimums and per person pricing can be affected enough to make the venue work for our clients.

2:00pm- Floral meeting with a summer client. We discuss centerpiece and personal flower options, so that the florist can pull together a bid based on the inspiration board we have designed with the client’s taste in mind.

2:45pm – Catering appointment with the same client. We discuss menu options, late night snack ideas, etc. Did I forget to eat lunch? My stomach is growling.

3:30pm – Grab a cupcake (left at office by some amazing vendor) as lunch and drive to our favorite seamstress of another bride’s gown fitting. Her complex bustle will create an overage in her budget for alterations. Make a note that her budget needs to be adjusted!

5:00pm- Back into the office! Consult with potential new clients for a 2013 wedding. They are so adorable, so in love! We learn more about their plans and dreams, and we share our experience and methodology. They sign a contract on the spot, which makes the meeting run longer than scheduled, but pop the champagne!

6:30pm – Kickoff meeting for new clients. We discuss their budget, inspiration board, personality analysis, etc. We can’t wait to get started on this beautiful fall wedding!

8:00pm- Time to head home, answer voicemail on the way.

8:30pm – Make dinner, put the little guy to bed,  then answer new email (about another 150 by this point), revise any inspiration boards that have feedback, update budgets, and finalize to do list for tommorow, whew!

11:00pm- Go to sleep and dream of cupcakes, flowers, and clients, oh my!

After a touchdown photoshoot at Denver’s most popular fan based stadium, the couple traveled their way to The Four Seasons hotel for their contemporary ethereal ceremony and hot pink party reception.

Stephanie wore a gorgeous Vera Wang gown purchased at Anna Be.

After the ceremony, the guests were then greeted into the hot pink party in the Grand Ballroom.

Stephanie and Tim cut into a lavish pink ombre cake.

Menus and escort cards had chevron print detail. Pink lollipop escort cards were provided for the ladies and golf tees were provided for the gentlemen.

Thank you to all of our vendors and we wish Stephanie and Tim a SWEET life together!

Jenny wore an absolutely gorgeous Eve of Milady dress.

The bride rode in on a horse and carriage by Tender Grass Carriages to the ceremony.

As the guests entered the cocktail hour, they were welcomed by a harpist on the patio. The reception was darkened with dark navy tables and brightened with sparkling candles and white flowers.

Escort cards were displayed on a sparkling ribbon board. A candy bar was placed with navy and silver candies.

The groom sabered the champagne before the toasts.

We are seeing chevron everywhere – on runners, menus, programs, and cakes, and we love it’s modern organic style. Love this cake!

The Perfect Petal created a floral vision with texture and mercury glass.

Meghan and Tad had a beautiful Catholic ceremony at the charming St. Mary’s church in Aspen.  As the ceremony ended, the guests were then escorted by the gondolas up to a clear tent on the patio for cocktails.

As the guests arrived they were able to sign the thumbprint tree guest book and begin to dance the night away with stun dance music by Celebration Nation.

As the night came to an end, Meghan and Tad were able to see their way out by a row of sparklers.

As their guests traveled their way out of the celebration, they were given glow sticks to find their way down the gondola.

Thank you to all of our vendors and we wish Meghan and Tad many more travels to come.
