The perfect combination of Garden-Party Elegance meets fun, personalized curated moments.


Maddy and I started planning together in the summer of 2023, and her design vision was very broad to begin with. I wanted to help her narrow down how she wanted her wedding day to “feel” and make thoughtful decisions based around this idea. We started by building the dream team…

Judy, from The Iris Photography, captured all of the details of this day perfectly. You can actually feel the warm Colorado summer, smell the flowers in the gardens, and taste the amazing food and drinks they thoughtfully chose for their wedding day.

It truly makes a difference who you bring into your wedding day team (both vendors and family/friends included) because they are the ones who will be contributing to the memories you make on this day - The ones photographed and not captured on camera. It’s true that there is an attitude that can be learned through the wedding planning process which is this: Not every single detail is going to turn out how you hope / You can’t control every part of the day.

This doesn’t mean that your choices and details don’t matter, but instead, it allows you to focus on what you can control on your wedding day: The guests you embrace, the words you speak to your wedding party, the alone time you get with your new spouse. Let your trusted Wedding Day Dream Team take care of your logistics in the best way they possibly can, so you can look back on this day with the fondest memories of love, joy and peace of mind!
