We said "I do"

Postby PhoenixRising » Fri May 31, 2019 9:37 pm

Our wedding was two weeks ago tomorrow! We had a wonderful time in Colorado, and aside from it SNOWING during our ceremony, it was exactly as we'd planned it to be. The only thing I would change looking back was the weather, even if it made for some pretty pictures. The snow and clouds blocked much of the peak on the wedding day, which was really a bummer since it was my favorite part of getting married here. The sunny day picture I'm attaching of the peak was the day before, when we did setup. Wish it could have been that clear on the actual day, but can't control the weather! Lol
Wedding was at 11am, and as soon as we were finished we headed off to take pictures in some of my favorite local spots out there. We visited Garden of the Gods and Helen Hunt falls as the 2 main places, but also got a few good ones at our reception venue. I wanted many more pictures with the peak, but it kept hiding.
So far I only have sneak peak photos, but I'd be happy to throw some more on this thread when I get them, if anyone wants to see more. ;)

Congrats! Great destination!! Gorgeous gown!!!!! The photos are great! How many couples can have wedding photos in the snow? I'm jealous!

(Okay, I LOVE the snow, and it didn't snow on my December wedding, dammit!)

Congratulations on your marriage! I'm sorry that our nutty Colorado weather impacted your ceremony; it has been crazy this spring! But, you looked beautiful, and think of the stories you can tell!

I went to college in Colorado Springs and love the area. Where were your ceremony and reception?

I'd love to see more pictures.

So pretty. We were married by a justice of the peace over 25 years ago---not so glam as snow and mountains and gowns. Happy life to you all!

The wedding was at Farish Recreation Area in Woodland Park, and the reception was at the Edgewood Inn in Woodland Park. Both were beautiful venues.

Still waiting on the rest of the pictures from our photographer :D

Finally got all the photos from our photographer today. I’ll post several more when I have time to resize them all, but I wanted to post this little teaser from my bridal shoot with Phoenix yesterday.
What can I say but I love my horse :lol:
