Destination Wedding Planner: Korri and Justin’s engagement photos

Posted by johnna-patton on July 22nd, 2014

Korri (the bride) sent me these engagement photos and I just had to share! Not only are the pictures amazing, but the story behind them is ridiculously sweet 🙂 The day these photos were taken in downtown Denver was also Korri’s birthday. To start the trip off on the right romantic foot Justin had booked them a room at the Brown Palace hotel (super swanky) in downtown Denver. On the day of the photo shoot Justin and the photographer had a plan. They started the shoot at the hotel and just kept moving locations until they were at a restaurant where–you guessed it–Justin had arranged for all of Korris closest friends and family to gather for a SURPRISE BIRTHDAY PARTY! This couple is beautiful inside and out! A big thank you to Laura Lee Anderson photography.

Breckenridge Wedding Planner: Romantic Honeymoon Destinations

Posted by johnna-patton on April 4th, 2014

You’ve found the perfect mate–you’ve had the perfect wedding– now what? The honeymoon of course!!! As a Colorado wedding planner researching beachy honeymoon spots in March– I’m already feeling warmer. These are a few of my favorite finds from Fodors Travel!

New Zealand honeymoon

If you and your honey enjoy active adventures in a natural setting, you’d be hard pressed to find a more diverse setting!

Maldives honeymoon

The islands of the Maldives are quintessential honeymoon destinations with deserted beaches that vie for the title “most romantic spot in the world.”

Bali. Indonesia, honeymoon

Just south of the equator, Bali is always warm, ranging from the high 60s to the low 90s. Bali is a sliver of Hindu culture and art!

St. Lucia honeymoon

There are gorgeous palm-fringed beaches, rainforest, the majestic Piton mountains and locals that appreciate the tourists who visit their little piece of paradise!

Croatia honeymoon

If you love the Mediterranean but are tired of the crowds, it’s time to visit Croatia!

These are my top honeymoon worthy places of 2014. Relax and enjoy each other!

Destination Wedding Planner: Nicole and Paul

Posted by johnna-patton on March 19th, 2014

On a day like today, where the temperature will barley reach thirty (brrrrr), a wedding like this Tulum celebration is just what the doctor ordered! Nicole and Paul got married on the beach at Ana y Jose in beautiful Tulum Mexico. It was just one of those weddings that you could feel the love. The ceremony was heartfelt and extremely personal. June Cochran Photography captured the very essence of the day, and that essence was warm waters, white sand, and buckets full of sweet love!
