Real Wedding :: Jess & Anthony’s intimate Breckenridge wedding

We love when our couples choose to do something a little out of the ordinary, but still focus on bringing their closest friends and loved ones to celebrate the day. Jess and Anthony embodied just that. From our initial phone call, I knew that Jess and Anthony’s wedding was going to be one to remember! They wanted to celebrate with their closet friends and family, and to do it in a way that was intimate. We decided on renting an amazing private residence in Breckenridge, CO. The Chateau of Breckenridge, which is managed by Paragon Lodging, was an incredible home nestled in the mountains. The selling point was the gorgeous rooftop patio that boasted insane views of the area. The morning was spent with Jess and her girls getting ready in the Chateau while enjoying mimosas. The atmosphere was relaxed, calm, and fun – and we love that!

When guests arrived, they were treated to champagne cocktails as they made their way to the rooftop patio for the ceremony. Being in the middle of October, we had planned for all kinds of weather, but luck was on our side! The weather could not have been more gorgeous! Jess was truly a vision in her amazing dress! There really wasn’t a dry eye in the house as Jess and Anthony said their vows beneath a gorgeous wooden arch and cascading greenery designed by Petal and Bean of Breckenridge. After the ceremony, guests remained on the rooftop for cocktails and small bites. A favorite among guests was the mini tomato soup shooters topped with small grilled cheese sandwiches!

After cocktails, guests headed downstairs to enjoy a pasta station prepared by Food Hedz. The decor was elegant and sweet, much like the couple! Guests sat at farm style tables adorned long garlands of greenery down the center, and place settings of birch chargers, slate gray plates and gold flatware. The many votives added such a warm ambiance to the already incredible dining area. After dinner, guests then headed back to the rooftop patio where toasts were made and dances were had! As always, DJ Jahsonic knows how to make a party! Jess added an absolutely stunning fur stole to her ensemble as the night moved on. Thank you so much, Jess and Anthony, for allowing us to be a part of your day! We wish you so much love!

Real Wedding :: Elise +Steve’s St Julien Celebration

We love our job for many reasons, but to work with an incredible couple tops that list.  Elise and Steve were one of the most down to earth, genuine, good-hearted people that we’ve had the pleasure of working with and we were so happy to be a part of their day!

The ceremony took place on the lawn at the St Julien. As always, the St Julien was on point.  Their customer service is always delightful and we were so grateful for them.  Elise and Steve were surrounded by loved ones as they said their vows in front of large barrels topped with beautiful florals from Yonder. After the ceremony, guests were treated to a cocktail hour with passed appetizers and drinks. Guests then made their way to inside to the ballroom for the reception.

The ballroom was stunning! Yonder brought in their wooden chargers that looked amazing with the golden flatware. Sprigs of greenery garnished each plate, while the floral arrangements were placed in the center of each guest’s table.  The head table had a long, beautiful garland on top of burlap runners. Elise & Steve sat at a gorgeous cream colored love seat that complimented their large head table perfectly!

The Radio Band was incredible, and had the guests on their feet immediately! It was a perfect celebration for such a wonderful couple! We simply cannot wait to see all the amazing images captured by Julie Harris, but until then, check out some of the images we snapped with our iPhones!

Carrie + Brice’s Downtown Boulder Wedding

Carrie + Brice tied the knot in late summer of last year. Their ceremony was held at First Presbyterian church in Boulder followed by the reception at the Boulder Theater. Their reception at Boulder Theater was one to remember! With giant marquee lights spelling out the word LOVE, a cozy dinner with friends and family to celebrate this couple coming together, all tied in with a live band at the end of the evening – we couldn’t have asked for a better way for Carrie + Brice to celebrate their love for each other! Carrie was an absolute vision on her special day and looked fabulous in her elegant wedding dress. We are over the moon to have received the real deal photos from Pamela Luedeke Photography. Take a moment to check them out and see how truly special Carrie + Brice’s wedding was! xx, Calluna

Real Wedding :: A Sunrise Amphitheater Wedding

What could be better than saying your forever vows surround by the rawness and beauty of nature? Katie + Eric said “I do” this past weekend at the Sunrise Amphitheater at Flagstaff. It was one of those beautiful bluebird days with the crispness of fall just around the corner.

The florals from Petals Wedding Flowers and Love Letters Floral were exploding with striking fall colors. After the short and sweet ceremony the wedding party and guests made there way to an intimate reception at the Greenbriar Inn. Where we were greeted with two jaw dropping cakes from Rachael at Intricate Icings. The wedding cake mirrored Katie’s dress and was absolutely over the top and tasted just as good as it looked!

The night was made complete with all the love that Katie and Eric share and the warmth from their family and friends. It truly was a night to remember! We can’t wait to get all the photos back from Lisa from Dog Daze Photo but until then, take a moment to check out the iPhone photos we were able to snap throughout the day!
