Grand Lake, Colorado Wedding

This Grand Lake Lodge wedding in Grand Lake, Colorado perfectly reflected the quirky and fun relationship Mara and Ryan have. From their sweet and sincere vows to their choreographed first dance to Carly Rae Jepsen, it was easy to feel the love they have for each other. I loved being a part of their beautiful day.

The ceremony was beautifully decorated with a unique and personal touch: a Christmas tree. This wasn’t just any tree—it was adorned with ornaments brought by their guests, each one a keepsake for Mara and Ryan to cherish on their own family Christmas tree. This creative and heartfelt detail added a warm, festive atmosphere to the day and highlighted the couple’s love for family and tradition.

One of the most memorable moments was their first dance. Known for their playful and silly nature, Mara and Ryan chose a Carly Rae Jepsen medley for their choreographed dance. This choice was a perfect reflection of their fun-loving relationship and their shared love for the artist. They began with a slow song, setting a romantic tone, and then surprised everyone by transitioning into a lively Carly Rae Jepsen medley. Their energetic and perfectly executed dance routine left their guests in awe and added an element of surprise and delight to the evening.

The venue, Grand Lake Lodge, was chosen for its breathtaking beauty. Mara and Ryan were captivated by the stunning views from the reception location and the picturesque deck where they shared their first look moment. With the national park and surrounding mountains as their backdrop, the setting provided a perfect blend of natural beauty and romantic ambiance, enhancing every moment of their special day.

Being part of Mara and Ryan’s wedding was a true honor. The day was filled with laughter, love, and countless special moments that perfectly encapsulated who they are as a couple. The joy and excitement that surrounded them were contagious, making it a day that everyone present will surely remember for years to come. The combination of beautiful scenery, thoughtful details, and heartfelt celebrations created a truly magical experience.

Congrats, Mara and Ryan!
