Warning–this is a long one! Emmy Jo and Garrett were married earlier this month at The Inn at Palmer Divide in Palmer Lake. They had beautiful weather, beautiful details, and beautiful moments. A perfect wedding day!

Check out the shoes!!
These two are ridiculously cute.
After their first look they took a moment for prayer.
The Inn at Palmer Divide was wonderful to work at–I hope we get to shoot another wedding there soon!
Their getaway car made the perfect photo prop–it couldn’t have been more perfect for their aqua and red wedding colors!
I’ve always loved the ‘kiss in the rearview mirror’ shot!
Their wedding party was huge and fun and had not one but two celebrity look alikes (I’ll let you decide who.) :)
The last kiddo wedding attendant I saw RUN down the aisle was my Willie (at 18 months), so it made my heart happy to see the flower girl take a similar approach to her big walk.
The ceremony set-up was a little different than usual, so I was able to get some really great angles on Emmy’s walk down the aisle. I love these moments with her dad!
I normally don’t blog family formals, but this one is just too cute!
I can’t see a cupcake without wanting to stick a ring in it!
Get ready, DIY brides–one of the cutest place card and dessert table ideas I’ve ever seen. The place cards were strung in front of a framed engagement portrait, so as they were removed, you could see more of the photo. The dessert table had a quilt as the backdrop with a window in front of it to act as a frame, vintage linens as a table cloth, and beautiful cupcake stands!
The best man’s toast had everyone alternating between laughter and tears.
The bride’s parents watching the first dance. So sweet.
Whenever the DJ has colored lights like the ones in this shot, I’m a very happy photographer. I know the reception photos will be fun and awesome when we have great lights to play with!
You know I love a good garter/bouquet toss shot. At this wedding I got dozens. So. Much. FUN!
Here’s the reach for the garter…
…but even in the moments before Garrett actually tossed the garter the guys were hysterical!
Here’s Nic’s shot of the bouquet toss win…
…but my favorite is mine from seconds earlier. Bridesmaids are only united in friendship until the bouquet toss. ;)
Back to the party!
Everyone started to gather at one end of the dance floor and I could see the groomsmen getting into some kind of formation. Having no idea what was going on, I was just trying to be ready for whatever it was they were about to do, when I heard Garrett say politely “excuse me, I’m going to jump” as he angled me out of the way.
And then we had this.
We felt so lucky to photograph this wedding. As you can tell from the pictures, we had a LOT of fun!
