Tips from a Breckenridge, Colorado Wedding Planner

Posted by on February 11th, 2013

When you have a wedding in the mountains, you are lucky enough to be surrounded by beautiful landscapes and breathtaking views. There can also be challenges that come along with having a wedding here. Hopefully the next series of blog posts titled ‘Advice from a Wedding Planner’ will help you avoid some of these minor challenges to make your day run as smooth as possible.

Wearing stilettos has always been in fashion but sinking into the ground has not. These little pieces of wood allowed the bridesmaids to stand in the grass without sinking and also showed them exactly where to stand. Smart!

Wood placements for bridesmaids

These little plastic pieces are called ‘Heels Above’ and will also keep you from aerating the lawn. 🙂

Heels Above

Hopefully these two tips will keep those heels nice, pretty and free of dirt. Happy planning!

Keystone Wedding Planner: Caitlyn & Tim

Posted by on February 5th, 2013

Tim and Caitlyn were slated to get married in the new Catholic church in Silverthorne, Colorado last summer. When the church wasn’t finished in time for their wedding Deacon Jim made a rare exception and performed a catholic mass outside on the deck of Timber Ridge. As a Keystone wedding planner I had never seen a Catholic mass outside! The day was unbelievable! Caitlyn was stunning and Tim shed a tear or five as she walked down the aisle. A big thanks to Chad Fahnestock Photography for these stunning photos!

Robyn & Todd’s Punta Cana, Dominican Republic Wedding

Posted by on February 4th, 2013

Todd and Robyn had a fun and casual wedding on the beach at the Hard Rock Resort in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic last Wednesday. After the ceremony all the guests had a few hours to eat, drink and get ready to boogie the night away at the outdoor show of Widespread Panic! Todd and Robyn are huge Widespread Panic fans so when the band announced a four night run in Puna Cana–well, makes sense to me! Thank you Todd and Robyn!
