Jen & Jeff’s intimate beer and bicycles mountain wedding

With a tasty strawberry shortcake beer ceremony, a wine unity box, and a grand mountain backdrop, the ceremony is enough to have us drooling. But add in the locally-themed after party at a bar with bocce courts and delish pies, and we’re full-on sold. You’ll really love how the bride chose her purple polka-dotted dress. Hint: it may have been on her phone!

An international Colorado mountain wedding weekend

From self-catering the event to a little social anxiety to some rain before the ceremony, this wedding could have gone awry. But this pair ended up with a super positive, love-affirming, and GORGEOUS mountain-y wedding. Even the ceremony ended up unintentionally extra awesome by becoming a wedding in the round! Don’t forget to find the MINGLO photo, too!

A multicultural destination wedding in the mountains

Katie and Gautam traveled from Washington DC to Twin Peaks, California for a destination wedding in the mountains (AND planned it all sight-unseen!). This pair successfully combined his Indian wedding traditions with her American traditions, including gorgeous saris, a flower crown, a candle-lighting ceremony, a tearful father/daughter dance (just try not to choke up!), and a rockin’ dance party with an iPod DJ!

Morgan & Nicole’s dreamy mountain wedding

Yep, we said “dreamy” and we mean it! Dreaming about those mountains, that lake, that EPIC hotel, and those two sexy-as-hell brides is just about the only thing that can be done after seeing it. Sure, they may have almost sunk into the lake, and maybe they hadn’t had tons of practice with PDA, but seriously, shit be worth it.
