Magazines take a bit of time to “brew” so it didn’t come as a surprise to see Adrienne and Evan’s wedding in the knot Colorado’s 2011 Fall/Winter publication. But still, it’s fun to see it all come together and brings back so many great memories of their beautiful wedding day!
As I said last week, I was honored to be a part of Substance, a workshop put on by Jenna Walker and Katie Thumes from Jenna Walker Photographers. They gathered 15 budding women photographers to talk craft, art, work and so much more.
I put together a Styled Shoot for the girls to play with and test out their newly refined skills. But, like all projects, I was not alone. Crystal Oleskevich created floral beauties. Liana from makeup by janine did the make up. Frisk Jewelry from Boulder loaned us a few of their pieces–this is just a small glimpse into all the fun pieces they make and sell out of their store on The Hill in Boulder. Friends at Chair Covers and Linens and All Events offered their linens, glasses, flatware and so much more. And, finally, the gracious Paulette loaned us her car for the afternoon.
As for the inspiration, I have been collecting (much to mother’s uncertainty of their worth) state plates for a few years now. They are just so kitschy and so, well, wrong, that I think they’re fabulous. When Jenna and I started talking about the overall design, I offered a couple ideas in the Style File–state plate vintage-esque or spring bulb beauties. I wanted to be sure there was a more traditional, more standard pretty option for her to choose. I would be lying to say that I wasn’t thrilled when she chose the state plates and I finally had the chance to create the table that had been building alongside my collection.
It was designed to be a new take on the travel theme–rather than pastel colored maps and European backpacker inspired details, it’s highway, interstate or Route 66 kitsch! With old license plates tied to the backs of the chairs, brightly colored glassware, a vintage VW Bug with a Coca-Cola box tied on top and bottles of Bubble Up thrown in, it’s pure Americana!
As I mentioned, I was honored to be a part of Substance, a workshop put on my Jenna Walker and Katie Thumes of Jenna Walker Photographers. I received a disc of images from the Styled Shoot today and can’t wait to share them next week. For now, just a lil bit…
In case you didn’t see, Adrienne and Evan’s wedding was published on the popular wedding blog, With This Ring today. It’s one of our favorites and holds a permanent place in our Daily Reads folder–what an honor!
Adrienne and Evan were married on Chautauqua’s Lawn in Boulder earlier this month. Talia Events had the pleasure of planning the affair! It was a glorious day. The weather was perfect for their morning ceremony on Chautauqua’s Lawn in Boulder, the flowers from Cori Cook Floral Design exceeded everyone’s vision, the ceremony was wonderfully personal and heartfelt, dinner at The Hotel Boulderado was delicious and A Music Plus kept guests on the dance floor until well after 11:00 p.m. It was a party to remember!
These are just a few shots from the day. You can see more here.
Congratulations Adrienne and Evan! It was truly a pleasure to plan the day with you and witness it all come together! I wish you much hapiness in your new life together!
I cry at most weddings, including clients’. Adrienne and Evan’s was no exception. Having had the honor of working with them since last fall to plan their Boulder wedding on the lawn at Chautauqua Park and reception at the Hotel Boulderado, I watched their plans develop and love infuse everything about their day.
It’s no wonder that Rachael Grace took a lot of photos; there was so much to capture. Here’s the first, there’s more coming, I promise!
Adrienne and Evan are getting married this summer and are just one of our favorite clients. Sweet and gracious, it’s been a pleasure assisting with the planning of their wedding over the past 8 months.
Rachael Grace recently took their engagement photographs at the base of Boulder’s Flatirons in Chautauqua Park. I couldn’t help but share these gasp-worthy photos of their day.
