We’ve been a bit behind on blogging about some of our last weddings! But the snowy Colorado weather is definitely keeping us inside with no excuse to get caught up on some work. So I thought I would start with one of our weddings from August. When we first met Courtney and Dave we knew their wedding was going to be nothing short of amazing – and amazing it was! The chic and contemporary Magnolia Hotel located in downtown Denver acted as both the ceremony and reception spot for Courtney and Dave’s dream wedding. Here are a few of our favorite pictures from their big day…
Courtney’s dress was so beautiful. I love the feeling of anticipation when you see the bridal gown laid out and waiting for the bride…so fun!
Andrew and I are lucky to have jobs that don’t really feel like “work”. We love taking pictures and working with great couples. That being said, Andrew never seems like he is “working” in quite the same way that I am…for example, he gets to hang out with the guys in LoDo while they go shopping for cigars…
Here’s Dave looking so calm and relaxed before the big day!
But I can’t complain too much…I love taking all of the fun detail shots of the brides as she is getting her hair and makeup done. Here’s Courtney looking absolutely stunning!
I took this picture as we were just about to head outside for some formal shots of the girls. I love this one of Courtney’s Mom looking over her shoulder. Momma looks so proud – and I’m sure she is! :)
The Magnolia Hotel is a photographer’s dream. There is no shortage of interesting places to take pictures. This one is with all of the girls in Harry’s Bar…located in the Magnolia Hotel. I love the circular details on the ceiling…very fun!
Another plus of being in downtown Denver…you don’t have to travel far to find that interesting contrast between the grungy alleyways and the beautiful bridesmaids.
Love it…
Here is Courtney and Dave’s little guy Landon…hanging out with a buddy before the ceremony. Such a cutie!
I love this one that Andrew caught just before the guys headed downstairs for the ceremony.
All the girls trying to help with the veil.
Dave and Landon waiting for Courtney to walk down the aisle. He was so excited!
Andrew shot this one of Courtney and her Dad walking down the stairs towards the aisle. So dramatic!
Momma crying…so sweet!
The happy family!
The wedding party…I love the black dresses! It looks so classy and it really makes the flowers pop!
So adorable together!
Tucked into a snug at the Magnolia Hotel.
I love the way she’s looking at him as they are about to head into the reception…
The reception was held across the street in the Magnolia Ballroom…I snapped this picture through the glass window.
Cute kids!
The first dance…
bouquet toss…
and the garter toss…so funny!
Courtney and Dave…thank you for allowing us to be part of your special day! Your obvious love for eachother and infectious laughs made our job so easy! We wish you the absolute best!
On a side note, for anyone interested in getting married in Denver…check out the Magnolia Hotel. This swanky hotel is one of a kind and sure to not disappoint! Give us a call if you’re getting married at the Magnolia – we’d love to work there again!
