Today I’m taking a little editing break to post a quick sneak peek of these Denver courthouse wedding photos from Sarah + Steve’s beautiful day back in May!  We did the first look in one of the most breathtaking urban spots in all of downtown Denver: the Byron J. White Courthouse (which is also one of my most favorite locales for photos in all of the Mile High City).

Afterwards, we cruised to RiNo for a couple of quick photos of the couple together and a few with their bridal party.  We finished with some early evening portraits at their ceremony venue, the Trinity Church, which has so much history behind it (built in 1887 and is also on the National Historic Register).

I can’t wait to share the full post of their gorgeous day, which finished with their reception at the Space Gallery in the Santa Fe Art District.  Enjoy this little sneak peak for now!

This post is dedicated to all the fine-tuned, hand-picked, sentimental AF details that you include in your wedding.  

These smaller parts of the wedding day are sometimes overlooked by guests, but they are definitely not ignored by me.  I’m a sucker for all the little pieces you bring together for your celebration, ranging from something borrowed to something blue, and everything in between.

I’m an incredibly nostalgic person.  You’ll see this word thrown around a shit-ton on this blog.  I love to look through boxes of old photos, airline ticket stubs, and letters from friends dating back to my time in California in the 90s.  There is just something so damn romantic about looking back on your favorite, most cherished memories.

Readers of the internet: are you like me?  Do you have a little time capsule of important trinkets that you hold onto? 

In honor of all these little mementos, I’m throwing together this blog post featuring just the details from a recent Cable Center wedding I had the pleasure of photographing back in December.  Alex + Greg put together a stunning geode theme with all the colors from my favorite palette: the Crayola Bold crayon box.

In true The Sound Of Music fashion, here are a few of my favorite things from their day:

• That emerald engagement ring!  Such a stunning, unique piece (well-done, Greg)
• That geode cake!  I’m loving this trend of statement desserts like these
• Alex’s nontraditional blush wedding dress! Move over, ivory + white, there’s a new sheriff in town
• Those hella sparkly purple bridesmaids dresses!  These are definitely the type that you can wear again (aka the best kind of bridesmaid dress)
• The entire peacock color palette!  Alex + Greg did such a fantastic job of bringing this theme to life across the board, from their centerpieces to their flowers to Greg’s navy suit

I tip my hat to this inspired couple that really hit a home run with their Cable Center wedding.  Take a peek at all their gorgeous details below!
