My Big Day Events supports everything wedding and valentine related! One of our favorite annual traditions is the FREE wedding/vow renewal on the top of Loveland Mountain! Loveland Ski Area’s 23nd Annual Mountaintop Matrimony & Ski Free on Valentine’s Day, Friday, February 14 is a “mass wedding” ceremony for couples getting married or renewing their vows. Couples and their guests must be able to ride a chairlift and ski or snowboard back to the base afterwards. The lift ride takes approximately 12 minutes, and the ceremony takes about 30 minutes. After the ceremony, everyone returns to the Loveland Basin day lodge for the Honeymooner’s Apres Party with music, wedding cake, spirits and a best dressed contest (“ski wedding” attire is encouraged). Participating couples must pre-register online by February 12 in order to receive the 2-for-1 lift ticket special. For more information, call 303-571-5580 Ext. 141. Couples getting married are required to bring a Clear Creek County marriage license; the county office is at 405 Argentine St., Georgetown, 303-679-2339. Those renewing their vows do not need a license. All participating couples must sign in on the morning of Feb. 14th and are asked to be at the Ptarmigan Roost Cabin by 11:30 a.m.
Let's face it... weddings can be expensive. From the gown, to the food, to the venue, to the photography, to the flowers... every detail costs money. If you aren't properly prepared, you can be in for quite a shock. Many websites offer budgeting spreadsheets to help couples plan for their BIG DAY. Unfortunately most of them don't add line items for all the miscellaneous things that can pop up, or aren't obvious on your contracts. My Big Day has come up with a list of items that you may want to consider budgeting for when planning your Big Day. Not all items are necessary, but they should certainly all be considered. This way, you'll be able to breathe easy knowing you planned for anything unexpected. For example...
Do you know of someone who is planning to propose soon? Whole Foods in Colorado wants to help them pop the question! Our friends at Whole Foods Market want their story. Whole Foods intends to make someone’s engagement one they will never forget --- and their wedding day a bit sweeter. As with most contests, stories with emotional impact or adversity overcome are the most compelling. The lucky winner will be contacted immediately. Whole Foods will coordinate with them in secret to show up at the proposal site on February 14 with a professional photographer, musician, a huge bouquet of roses and a giant goodie basket with treats from Justin’s Corvus Coffee, Bhakti Chai, Oogave, Love Grown Foods, LoveBeets and Earth Balance and more. Plus, the lucky couple (assuming he or she says, “yes”) receives a gift certificate for custom wedding flowers and a cupcake tower for their wedding day! The entire package is worth more than $2,000. Email love@wholefoods.com no later than 11:59 p.m. Monday, February 10 with the tale of romance. It will be SO worth it! A BIG thank you to the Fort Collins Coloradoan newspaper for their article on Saturday. My Big Day's owner, Christine Forster was featured as their 'Young Professional' on the front page of the business section.
