Brooke + Austin Wedding | Denver, CO

| purplesummerevents

It was such an honor to help Brooke + Austin plan their beautiful and classy celebration!  The golf course provided the perfect background for this chic and modern affair.  These two were very involved with the planning process from the beginning, which we loved!  Brooke broke out her DIY skills to craft many of the day’s details and Austin gifted his groomsmen the most unique custom shoes from Artemis Design Co.  They were all cut from the same kilim rug and added a wonderful pop of color!

Denise + Marty | Devil’s Thumb Ranch Wedding | Tabernash, CO

| purplesummerevents

We couldn’t be more thrilled that our 2019 season started off with the intimate winter wedding of this lovely couple!  There is nothing quite like celebrating your marriage on a magical, snowy day in the mountains, cozied up in front of a roaring fireplace and sipping hot cocoa.  With only 40 guests in attendance, it was important to make the Broad Axe Barn at Devil’s Thumb Ranch feel full despite the small guest count, and one long community table did the trick!  Modern + classic details rounded out the design, including a neutral color palette, wintry furs, rustic wood accents to complement the mountain lodge setting, and chic acrylic drink stirrers that doubled as escort cards!  DeniseandMarty-30 Continue reading →

Lauren + Clem | Devil’s Thumb Ranch Wedding | Tabernash, CO

| purplesummerevents

If Lauren + Clem’s wedding day is any indication of how their years together will be spent, they’ll be full of adventure.  When the groom wants to do a little fishing during his first look, you know he’s never going to bore you.  Seriously…scroll down to see him grabbing a trout with his bare hands in his wedding suit!  Bold + playful details rounded out this wedding design with a vibrant floral palette, clever trout cookies, and brightly colored place card agates.  Favorite memories from this wedding include Lenny, the sweetest labrador ring bearer of all time, and the amazing second line parade with a jazz band to pay tribute to the bride’s southern roots!  Wishing these two lovebirds much happiness on their life of adventure ahead!View More: http://taylercarlisle.pass.us/rinehartwedding Continue reading →

Bailey + Mark | University Club Wedding | Denver, CO

| purplesummerevents

We ended our 2016 season with Bailey + Mark’s winter wedding.  The high temperature for the day was one degree.  That’s right, one.  But, that didn’t stop these two from getting some killer outdoor photos + celebrating to the max!  Santa even made an appearance at their reception.  At the end of the night, as our team + the catering staff hustled to complete the day’s cleanup tasks, Bailey and Mark sat alone at one of the remaining reception tables.  They ate a cupcake together and chatted quietly about the day’s happenings, their favorite parts they hadn’t yet had the chance to discuss, and they watched as the space transformed from their wedding – full of beautiful wintry decor and people they love – to an empty room.  It’s one of the most endearing things we’ve ever seen a couple do.  We tried to shoo them off to an after party or the warmth of their home, but they wanted to stay and watch…for closure, they said.  And yet, it’s just the beginning.  Congrats, you two!  Thanks for ending our our season with such beauty!moriartybrideandgroom-94 Continue reading →
