We're calluna
Where do we even begin with Alana + Ian?! We adored this couple and loved planning with them for a year and a half! From the beginning of the planning process, Alana and Ian wanted their wedding to feel personal and reflect the two of them. The week of the wedding, Colorado gifted us with a crazy snowstorm, but luckily, everyone arrived safely, and guests enjoyed the most perfect, sunny FALL day.
Alana and her maids started the wedding day, getting their hair and makeup done in the gorgeous bridal suite at The St. Vrain. They sipped champagne and had a dance party in their fuzzy slippers and adorable PJs. Once Alana stepped into her stunning Theia Couture gown, the tears started flowing, and we couldn’t wait for the bride and groom to see each other. Ian rocked a custom blue Bespoke Edge suit, and the first look was such a special moment.
Almost 200 friends and family witnessed Alana + Ian say “I do” in front of a moody and stunning floral backdrop from The Perfect Petal. During cocktail hour, guests enjoyed margaritas from Alana’s margarita wall (her favorite!) and snacked on tacos and delicious appetizers. Alana and Ian love cocktails, so they had not two, but FOUR specialty cocktails with fun custom names.
Once the space was reception ready, guests entered a romantic scene with hundreds of candles, custom velvet napkins, modern glassware, and personal paper details from Handsome Love Calligraphy. Sugar Pine Catering served up a delicious meal followed by some heartwarming toasts. Donuts were served for a sweet treat, and The Wash Park Band kept the dance floor packed. October 12th will always have a special place in our hearts!
