This winter destination wedding in Steamboat Springs, Colorado was a dreamy fairytale come true. The gorgeous bride wore a sparkling off the shoulder long sleeve lace gown from Jaxon James Couture Bridal and Netta BenShabu. White satin platform heels completed her outfit, while her brunette locks were left down. A chapel length veil completed her look. Wooden pews offer views of the Rocky mountains for the couple’s ceremony. The groom, wore a traditional black tuxedo. He was emotional as he waited at the end of the snowy aisle for his bride. She carried a white floral bouquet tied with a white ribbon that matched the groom’s boutonniere. The couple’s dogs were even a part of the ceremony and wore bow ties. After the ceremony, flower petals flew through the air showering the bride and groom!
After they tied the knot, guests headed to The Periodic Table for the reception. We utilized Colorado’s snowy scenery to capture some bridal portraits of the couple. Tables were covered in white tablecloths and decorated with white pillar candles in clear glass candleholders with single white roses in glass vases. White dinnerware made up the place settings. Cushioned sage green chairs awaited attendees. Guests enjoyed dinner along with signature drinks. Dessert was a two tier white buttercream cake adorned with white frosting flowers. Guests enjoyed celebrating on the dance floor prior to a sparkler send off for the new Mr. & Mrs.
