Alexis & Steve: Aspen Colorado Wedding/Rehearsal Dinner

A couple of weekends ago, Jim and I headed up to Aspen for Alexis and Steve’s mountaintop wedding. We began photographing the evening before the wedding at the rehearsal dinner. 

To kick off the evening Blazing Adventures brought the guests in Jeeps to admire the views at Coney Glade in Snowmass.

The Jeeps next dropped everyone off at the Lynn Britt Cabin to enjoy an evening of great food, music and a bonfire.

As we unloaded from the Jeeps I heard one of the guests mention that the set up looked like something straight out of a magazine.

Yep. I think so too.alstw9

Mmmm….this is making me want to take a computer break and go get something yummy.

Jim and I set up a small photobooth for the guests to enjoy after dinner. Photobooth + crazy fun cowboy props = PERFECT way to kick off wedding festivities (not a bad way for us photographers to get to know all the guests either!!).alstw16

The next morning we took the gondola to the top of Aspen Mountain.alstw20

The ceremony was on the wedding deck at the Aspen Mountain Clubalstw24

Just as at the rehearsal dinner, the details of the wedding were amazing.  At an elevation of 11,000+ ft., a blue and white ”in the clouds” theme seemed a fitting choice. 

I thought everything came out great, though I had no doubt it would.  Alexis knows a thing or two about weddings, as she has worked as the editor of marthastewartweddings.com for the past couple of years.

The chandelier was covered in a “cloud” of baby’s breath, with birds hanging below.alstw27

I thought this was a great idea for the younger wedding guests…alstw28

So did she… :)alstw29

Niki & Mike’s Keystone Wedding: mini sneak peek

hey friends…!! perhaps you noticed I’m CRAZY behind in blogging sessions…???  July has been such a fun month of shooting and shooting and shooting and shooting.  and shooting.   accompanying all of the shooting is also a very messy house, meals that came out the freezer and are warmed up in the microwave, quick ponytail hair-dos, and very little blogging.  I do plan on catching up…at some point.  and to stop living off of microwave-able meals.  yuck-o.

 

thought I’d give you a super small sneak peek at Niki and Mike’s Keystone Colorado wedding.  more coming soon!!…

They were married in the LDS temple in Salt Lake City (yes, it was cloudy, yes, it was a bit rainy, and yes, it was windy…but holy smokes!!!  That sure didn’t stop Jen and Brian from being the happiest most glowing-est newly-wed couple).jbw1l
