Real Wedding : a mountain view + two birds perched in the tree of life

Today's beautiful Colorado wedding of Liz and Eric was submitted to me from Angie of Sapphire Celebrations and photographed by Rachael Grace Photography. The concept for their wedding began with a wire bird and the theme blossomed with the design of the paper goods - two birds perched in the tree of life. To incorporate the groom's French Canadian heritage and his bride's American culture, invitations and programs were printed in both English and French.

The Keystone Timber Ridge deck with its magnificent mountain view was chosen as the site for Liz and Eric's first glimpse of each other and their wedding ceremony.

The venue was Timber Ridge in Keystone Mountain and three distinct table designs were created for the Timber Ridge décor. The tables were monochromatic with green, orange, or brown and each table incorporated the wire bird, birch bark, accordion vases, and color-coordinated floral, napkins, and chair ties.

There was a half hour gondola ride to the top of the mountain for the wedding and at the end of the night, glow sticks were provided for the kids so they wouldn't be scared on the dark gondola ride back down. So sweet.

Thank you so much Angie for sharing today's beautifully scenic Colorado wedding with my readers. To see more from Sapphire Celebrations, please visit their blog and of course, to see more from Rachael Grace Photography, please visit her blog too.

Real Wedding : romantic nuptials at Villa Parker {part 1}

I am totally smitten with today's 2 part Real Wedding of Jon and Jessie who were married this summer on June 27th. The details are absolutely stunning and this feature comes to us from Angela of Sapphire Celebrations in Colorado and was photographed by Dawn Sparks Photography. Since Angela's description of the wedding is beautifully written, I'll leave it in her words for you: "The scent of roses infused the air with a romantic ambiance as Jon Davis and Jessie Hills became husband and wife. The light in their eyes confirmed for everyone present that these two individuals had found their soul mate. Friends and family celebrated their union at a ceremony and subsequent reception held at Villa Parker. Bread Winners tempted appetites, as DJ Troy Negley lured guests onto the dance floor."
And, coming up next . . . the gorgeous reception, plus stellar shots of the couple with a vintage car. You won't want to miss it, so please do check back a little later this morning for more from the wedding of Jon and Jessie.
