Our blog has been neglected for a little while as we are still in the thick of wedding season (along with some corporate events and regular party planning)! We have been blessed with amazing couples with such loving families -and couples from all over the country this year! Below are a few weddings we took some photos of. Thank you to all the wonderful families who invited us to be part of their Big Day! Ethan & Callie

Event Planners: My Big Day Ceremony/Reception: YMCA of the Rockies Photographer: Ashley Tiedgen Caterer: Baldoriabaldoriaevents.com/ Linen Rentals: Colorado Tablecloth Shuttles: Denver Limo  40.3395° N, 105.5734° W Something very special happened on this spot! If you look this location up in your smartphone, you will likely find a picture of love - the love between Jen & Antonio!  In reality, these are the coordinates for the YMCA of the Rockies in Estes Park, and it was the beautiful site for the delightful reception celebrating the marriage of our clients, Jen and Antonio Garcia. Jen is a close My Big Day friend, and we were ecstatic to be a part of her Big Day!
 The day’s celebrations started in a cabin, aptly named “Blessings” on the YMCA site. Family members and the wedding party, met there to prepare for the nuptials at a local Catholic church, Our Lady of the Mountains, as well as to gather to surround both Jen and Antonio with love. There were pictures, primping, hugs, and mimosas.
 After the beautiful ceremony, guests were invited to gather in the large ballroom on the YMCA site. There they were served delicious drinks at an open bar, as well as homemade appetizers and snacks while they waited for the wedding party to return from a quick after ceremony photo shoot.  
 The evening was full of good food, drink, and entertainment provided by Suit & Tie DJ services. The highlight of the evening had to be during the speeches when Maid of Honor and Sister of the Bride turned her speech into a rap, complete with background singers. The crowd was enthralled as she “rocked the mic like a vandal”! 
 Guests danced the night away, and made several trips to the photobooth provided by Blue Orchid Photography.
The decor that the bride and groom chose for their reception site was full of personal and familial touches. There was a memory table filled with photos of family members and important friends who had passed. 
Their guestbook was a beautifully honed piece of wood with their wedding date and coordinates for guests to sign. They had a date jar and more photos of special dates in their relationship on display as well. It was very evident that the couple’s family and friends were a very important part of their relationship and life together.  We absolutely loved being able to be a part of this couple’s big day - the fact that Jen is a close My Big Day friend made it even more special and fun!

In the case of Natalie's wedding, her family really just needed some help with logistics - specifically the cocktail hour, dinner buffet and cake cutting. While My Big Day is not a catering company, we will rise to any challenge, as our goal is to make your big day the best day of your life. We were happy to work with this lovely family and help them with their specific planning needs.  
 This wedding was a beautiful barn wedding on the bride’s parent’s property. The ceremony was on their beautiful lawn and reception in the barn. As soon as we arrived we hit the ground running to make sure everything was in place and the food warming before the reception started. We had about 3 hours to set everything up. It was the perfect amount of time. The critical timing came in to play as soon as we opened the buffet.
We made sure the food stayed full, we released tables smoothly so we didn’t over crowd the buffet and drinks were checked on as well. The real excitement came when it was time to tear down the buffet and make room for the dance floor. Right after we pulled all the food and moved the tables we had to pack up all the leftovers and start cutting cake simultaneously. We saved the top tier of the cake for the bride and groom so they would have that for their first anniversary. We cut up the bottom tier and served it along with the other 3 flavors. There were 4 flavors of cake. It was glorious!
Once we were finished packing up all the food and cakes for the night, we made sure the place was clean and drinks were full. We had such a lovely time at this wedding. We got to do something we rarely handle and it was splendid. The mother of the bride was our contact and she was such a sweet lady. She was so very pleased with how we handled things and we couldn’t ask for a better client. This wedding was beautiful. The barn has seen many celebrations- this was the fifth child in this family to be married here. This barn is filled with love and happiness. The family home is in the middle of the country with a lovely mountain view. You couldn’t ask for a more picturesque country, barn wedding. It turned out to be beautiful fall day for this beautiful fall wedding in the country! Congratulations Paul & Natalie -The My Big Day Team   Contact My Big Day Have Fun. Be Young.

Kaitlin had her wedding nearly planned from our first phone call. The bride and groom chose a location that is not a traditional wedding venue, so they knew they needed advice and help pulling everything together to make the day seamless --- and it was!
The location our couple picked was the home of many childhood memories. Kaitlin and her family spent many summers at the Meeker Park Lodge in Allenspark, Colorado. It is a rustic retreat with cabins and priceless views surrounding the entire property.
Our planners did a site visit and helped choose the perfect ceremony spot, with a mountain backdrop that can't be bought!  The reception was filled with laughter and dancing... lots of dancing!
We love calling Colorado home, and appreciate all of our out of state couples who choose the Rocky Mountains for their destination weddings! Congratulations Nick & Kaitlin!
