Simone and Jess...a great wedding



















So I had the pleasure of designing and planning a wedding for Simone and Jess on the 2nd of August.
First let me say, they are a spectacular couple. I have never never seen two people that are more perfect for each other and that seemingly complete each other more then these two. They were both so happy with the idea of marriaging the other that they literally glowed all day the day of their event. Amazing.


They had their wedding ceremony at Maggie Pond in Breckenridge. It is a great location for a small intimate event. The surrounding flowers were in bloom and the guests were a buzz...There was a lot of excitemenet in the air.


We moved from the pond to the Mountain Thunder Lodge for the wedding reception. Since it is a hotel, we worked hard to transform the space into a more chic and fun atmosphere and everyone seemed to think we accomplished it. The lighting was moody and cool and the flowers were so fresh; combnations of orange and fuschia with some more natural textures like birch and Aspen. A really great setting.


Besides the couple, the crowd and the cool space, I would be remiss f I did not mention the amazing families of these two love birds...Simone's Parents were so fun and so induring and Jess' were so great, Toney Jess' Dad made the trellis for the ceremony...he is very talented as I am sure you will see.


Speaking of a great talent: Paige Eden of Paide Eden Photogrphy http://www.paigeeden.com/ and Lamour De Vie http://www.lamourdevie.com/ was the photographer for this event and she is one of my favorites. I love her moody, edgy pictures and the way that she tells the story. I recoomend her to all of my clients and I am always soo excited to know that she will be in the room.




Thanks Paige!




Anyway, I should stop rambling, but if you can tell, I loved working with these two and I think they are deserving of every bid of love that they will surely receive through one another.




Take care and stay close!!

Jess and Greg-Sooo cool!

So, I get a lot of wedding planning clients that have a vision. A lot...But I get very few that have a clear vision. The ones that do, well, those are my favorite clients. They know what they want, they have thought about it, researched it and eventually they are able to describle it without questions. When I worked with Jess and Greg on planning their wedding, from the start I knew they were cool and they were smart and they had great taste. Over the months I realized that they saw things as I did and I was going to love briniging their vison to life. Hip, chic, uptown and modern...that is how I would describe them.
They had their wedding ceremony at the Denver Bontanic Gardens, not that modern and chic you say, well the cockatil hour and the late ceremony made it very uptown. Following their wedding ceremony, the guests moved on to an ultra modern chic space, The Space Gallery.



We transformed the gallery into a great site. We had a dinner area, very clean and modern, turn the corner and we created a night club, dance floor completed by the oober cool DJ Kieran Browner of D.I.S.C.O (you can reach him at email: d.i.s.co@Mac.com). The stairs in the night club reached up into a swank modern lounge complete with sleek white leather couches and great lighting. I loved loved loved working with these guys!!!!
I also loved working with Brad Walters of Brad Walters Photography, he has a great eye for details and captures the feeling of the day. Check him out at http://www.bradwaltersphoto.com/

Good luck in your life together Jess and Greg and you forever have a friend in me!
