NICOLE + GARIN, MARRIED! SHERATON DENVER DOWNTOWN.

It was an incredibly gorgeous day.  Nicole and Garin were married at Our Lady of Mt. Carmel in the Highlands.  They, and 350 of their friends and family, gathered to watch them get married.  When I first met Garin and Nicole, it was obvious that they were very in love.  They are so warm and genuine, that photographing them was not only a pleasure, but easy.  We got time to hang out downtown (on probably the busiest weekend ever in Denver), and grabbed some amazing urban shots before getting back on the party bus to head to their fabulous reception.

Nicole and Garin didn’t miss any details for their wedding … they had a monogramed theme that was carried through all of the details.  The cake, the Ice Sculpture, the cups that the guests got to take home, it was all monogramed.  The centerpieces were flowing and the guests were grooving :)

Nicole and Garin were having a traditional Catholic Ceremony, so she had her bridal party sign her shoes.  Too cute!

The band played (they were amazing), and pulled Garin up on stage.  He is an UBER talented singer.  He sang, “Brown Eyed Girl”.  So awesome!

KERI + KYLE: THEY DID! DENVER WEDDING

Sweet, kind, articulate, beautiful love.  That is what I experienced from Keri and Kyle’s wedding.  You may remember Keri and Kyle from their engagement session HERE.  They were married at Mt. Carmel Church in Denver.  Their reception was at DU.  Debbie with Save the Date Events coordinated the day and did an AH-MA-ZING job, as usual {seriously, check her and her team out, they are fabulous}.  Keri and Kyle looked awesome, had a beautiful traditional Catholic Mass, and then moved on to a traditional Italian Reception.  The dessert table … oh yes!  I could talk about this all day!  Keri’s Aunt’s made the most beautiful and delicious cookies ever.  When I did Keri and Kyle’s engagement session last fall, they told me they had begun taking dance lessons. Their dance was beautiful … and the way they smiled at each other the entire time melted my heart.  They had an incredible amount of support for each other.

Keri’s sister Melanie made this pin to go under Keri’s dress.  It was a piece of Keri’s Mother’s wedding dress, along with a blue ribbon.  It was gorgeous … and so thoughtful!  Melanie, you are so sweet!
