This folksy elopement inspiration by Chris and Ruth Photography and Glückskonzepte is the epitome of boho charm. The ceremony was set up in the middle of a field and featured an aisle lined with vintage rugs, simple wooden chairs, and one of the most stunning macrame arches we’ve ever seen! The bride’s vintage bell-sleeve Rue de Seine dress paired perfectly with the moody wildflower arrangements from Classy Flowers. But what really set this shoot’s folksy vibe over-the-top were the beautiful camels that made the couple’s post-ceremony portraits oh-so dreamy!
Ali and Blake are your quintessential adventure couple, so it’s only fitting that their Southwest Colorado wedding was nothing short of exciting! The couple filled their wedding with personalized details, handmade by themselves, their friends, and their family. The most spectacular of these details was Ali’s bell-sleeve and guipure lace dress that was made by her mother-in-law. The gold and wood accents they used for the table décor perfectly tie in the rustic Colorado mountain vibe. Lauren Parker Photography worked her photography and videography magic to capture the pure joy and love in this wedding.
The Couple:
Ali and Blake
The Wedding:
Silverton, Colorado
We wanted to create something intimate, unique, personal, and not mainstream. We wanted the locale to be meaningful to our history together and beautiful enough to justify the trip itself for our guests, so we selected a town in which we had our first mountain adventure together in the very beginning of our relationship. We wanted the guest list limited to those with whom we’ve shared real experiences and relationships. We wanted to involve our friends and family in the whole creative process. And we wanted to make every attempt to limit costs as much as possible.
I wore a handmade dress that my mother-in law made. It was pure white with bell sleeves and guipure lace. I also made a necklace the night before using gemstones and Swarovski crystal beads.
I gave my husband an antique handmade knife I’d found in Colorado. I attached a personalized note and asked someone to deliver it for me the morning of the wedding. He was absolutely thrilled!
We would never have been able to do it without our family and friends! All of the signs and many of the table decorations were made by Blake’s sister. Ali’s grandmother made the floral arrangements and our friends put together the bridal bouquet and boutonnieres. Ali’s aunt and uncle made all of the reception food, and her dad made the big “LOVE” light-up sign. It was truly a team effort!
This Christmas tree farm wedding inspiration is a beautiful blend of coziness and sophistication. The brilliant minds at JM Wedding Group focused the shoot around a burgundy and copper palette that created a warm and romantic feel, despite the chilly temperatures. B. Matthews Creative captured every detail so beautifully, from the nearly naked chocolate cake from Patticakes Bakery to the delicate invitations by KB Calligraphy. We’re also completely in love the bride’s vintage glam look in a Calla Blanche lace gown, soft romantic waves, and smokey makeup. If you’re in need of some seriously gorgeous winter wedding inspiration, you’ve come to the right place!
