Isn't it great when you get to help your friends get married?

I was lucky enough to meet Chelsea my freshman year at the University of Colorado while rushing Delta Gamma. She was a mentor to the freshman girls and taught us a crash course in how to survive college. She is the sweetest person you will ever meet and I was so lucky to help her plan the best day of her life. Chelsea and Travis met while Chelsea attended the University of Colorado and Travis attended Colorado State University. Although the two attended rival universities they had known each other for years while growing up in the same city. Chelsea and her girls got ready in a cabin in Vail while wearing red matching bridesmaids flannels. All the girls wore cowboy boots under their high neck, burgundy, floor length dresses. The Coe's were married at the Beaver Creek Chapel in a Catholic ceremony. Chelsea & Travis stuck with tradition and did not see eachother before the ceremony. This made for some really great photos of Travis seeing his bride for the very first time. After the ceremony, the guests traveled to Donovan Pavilion for cocktail hour, while the newlyweds snuck off to take photos in the color changing leaves. After being announced into the reception as Mr. & Mrs. for the very first time, the couple sat down at their head table and enjoyed a beautifully plated dinner provided by Vails very own Taste 5 Catering. The Tables were decorated with DIY decorations created by the bride and her mother. The centerpieces were multiple birch tree candles tied with gold twine and finished with greenery. The couple cut their two tiered birch tree inspired cake, which tied in perfectly with the theme of the wedding. The music was a perfect mix of pop meets country and everyone in the pavilion danced the night away. It was a perfect fall night for a mountain wedding.
