“So this is everything I have to tell you about love and marriage: nothing, Like a book without pages or a forest without trees. Because there are things you cannot know before you experience them. Because nobody else’s love, nobody else’s marriage, is like yours, And it’s a road you can only learn by walking it, A dance you cannot be taught, A song that did not exist before you began, together, to sing.” Love was in the air and on the ice at the 2023 Valentine’s Group Wedding ceremony, held at the Budweiser Event Center. Even though couples stood and said “I Do” and “I Do, Again” over the hockey rink ice, there were no cold feet in the crowd! 28 couples joined together for the 6th Annual Valentine’s Day Group Wedding, a signature event organized by My Big Day Marketing & Events, with support from the City of Loveland. 12 of those couples were married for the first time. ![]() Officiant Todd Harding wore a referee shirt to keep up with the hockey/sporting theme. Couples entered the rink on a red carpet isle while being serenaded by Branden Sipes, a favorite Colorado Singer-Songwriter-Guitarist. He played and sang music chosen and voted on by all of the participating couples. The ceremony included thoughtful and loving readings, vows - both led by Todd Harding - and personally between each couple, a ring exchange, and a declaration of marriage. Friends and family members of the couples watched and cheered from the stands. Many held lighted Eagles sticks, adding to the excitement and fun of the event! After the ceremony, couples were ushered up to the Budweiser Balcony Bar where they were able to toast to each other and their guests. They also had plenty of opportunities for photos with the event photographer, Dick Knapp, and the special Valentine’s photo booth, complete with props. Valentina, Loveland’s Valentine Mascot, and Slapshot, the mascot for the Eagles’ hockey team, were also on hand for photos. Family and friends were on hand to celebrate the couples. The vow renewal couple below has participated in the Valentine’s Day Group wedding each year! Couples had a photo keepsake and goodie bag full of treats to remember this special day! My Big Day Marketing & Events is proud to be a part of this celebratory event. It is unique to Loveland and provides the community with an additional draw for all of its Valentine’s Day celebrations. It’s an unwritten fact that you often don’t get - or want- repeat business when in the wedding planning industry. However, one couple who participated in the group wedding as a vow renewal couple has done so each year at the Valentine’s Group Wedding event (6 times)- proving that a wedding can provide repeat business, as long as love remains the focus and root of the event!

Their wedding was featured as a 'Real Wedding' on Wedding Wire. A chilly Estes Park day... but love filled the air. Thank you Heather & Jake for having us, and Amanda McCann for the lovely photo feature! LINK TO WEDDING WIRE We have been honored at My Big Day to plan celebrations of life for a number of our clients. Planning an end-of-life event for a loved one is never easy, but we hope to inspire you with these 35 celebration of life toast ideas in their memory. A celebration of life is a ceremony celebrating a one-of-a-kind individual, your loved one. It is typically a casual, joyful, and touching event where friends and family gather to reminisce and share favorite memories of the deceased and celebrate a life well lived. A celebration of life usually follows a burial or cremation and may or may not be preceded by a formal funeral. Every time we are asked to plan a celebration of life, we treat the process and our clients with compassion, respect, and the utmost attention to detail. 35 Celebration of Life Toast Ideas Short, Simple Celebration of Life Toast Oh, here's to other meetings, And merry greetings then; And here's to those we've drunk with, But never can again. Celebration of Life Toast for a Fisherman There is certainly something in angling that tends to produce a serenity of the mind. Time is but the stream I go a-fishing in. I drink at it; but while I drink I see the sandy bottom and detect how shallow it is. Its thin current slides away, but eternity remains. Short Quotes for a Celebration of Life Sometimes you will never know the true value of someone until they become a memory. True friends are always together in spirit. It may be a long walk, but our paths will cross again. What you leave behind is not what is engraved in stone monuments but what is woven into the lives of others. Only a moment you stayed but what an imprint your footprints have left on our hearts. They that love beyond the world cannot be separated by it. Death cannot kill what never dies. Perhaps they are not the stars, but rather openings in heaven where the love of our lost ones pours through and shines down upon us to let us know they are happy. . Don’t cry because it’s over, smile because it happened. A great soul serves everyone all the time. A great soul never dies. It brings us together again and again. Wherever a beautiful soul has been, there is a trail of beautiful memories. I submit to you that if a man hasn’t discovered something he will die for, he isn’t fit to live. It matters not what someone is born, but what they grow up to be. It’s hard to turn the page when you know someone won’t be in the next chapter, but the story must go on. Death is more universal than life; everyone dies, but not everyone lives. Nature-Inspired Celebration of Life Quotes Like a bird singing in the rain, let grateful memories survive in time of sorrow. Lives are like rivers: Eventually, they go where they must. Not where we want them to. For life and death are one, even as the river and the sea are one. If I had a flower for every time I thought of you, I could walk in my own garden forever. Inspirational Celebration of Life Toasts About Dying Too Young In the end, it’s not the years in your life that count. It’s the life in your years. Only the good die young. Life is short. Always choose happiness. Some are bound to die young. By dying young a person stays young in people’s memory. If he burns brightly before he dies, his brightness shines for all time. As is a tale, so is a life. Not how long it is, but how good it is, is what matters. Funny Celebration of Life Toast Ideas Dying is a very dull, dreary affair. And my advice to you is to have nothing whatever to do with it. I am ready to meet my maker. Whether my maker is prepared for the great ordeal of meeting me is another matter. I do not fear death. I had been dead for billions and billions of years before I was born, and had not suffered the slightest inconvenience from it. The idea is to die young as late as possible. Life is pleasant. Death is peaceful. It’s the transition that’s troublesome. Life does not cease to be funny when people die any more than it ceases to be serious when people live. *********************************** According to most studies, people’s number one fear is public speaking. Number two is death. They say such nice things about people at their funerals that it makes me sad to realize that I’m going to miss mine by just a few days. Amazing tradition. They throw a great party for you on the one day they know you can’t come. ***************************** Reach out to find out how we can help you plan a memorable celebration of life event as unique as your loved one.

After two years of hiccups and postponements - one for Covid, and one for an unexpected Bundle of Joy, My Big Day Couple Kristin and Gary, finally said “I Do”!
Guests witnessed their vows and commitment to one another atop a mountain in the picturesque campus of the YMCA of the Rockies in Estes Park. Even though a pop-up thunderstorm threatened to dampen their ceremony, the happy couple didn’t even consider postponing their special day yet again. Kristin and Gary chose a beautiful palette of greens and blues that blended well with their mountain backdrop. Guests were served a wonderful assortment of appetizers and cool drinks before they dined on a delicious dinner of chicken and beef, provided by the YMCA’s culinary team. A Music Plus Entertainment got the crowd up on their feet in celebration on the dance floor, and guests were entertained by a slideshow of beautiful photos, displaying special moments from Kristin and Gary’s relationship. We were thrilled to be a part of this special day, centered around this precious little family. Congratulations to Kristin, Gary, and baby Zuri - may your new life together be full of many blessings and very few hiccups!

in the Sweetheart City: LOVELAND, CO Loveland's Annual Valentine's Day Group Wedding Sunday, February 14th, 2021 Chapungu Sculpture Park, Centerra, Loveland CO Ceremony Times: 4pm and 5pm * Officiated by Todd Harding So you think you’ve found the PB to your J….. The bee to your honey…. The love of your life…. and now you’re ready to take the next step? Before you do, you should really spend some time in personal reflection, and in conversation with your significant other, because in a life changing event such as getting engaged, even some small things can become significant. The team at My Big Day has pulled together a list of questions you should really consider asking your partner before you ask for their hand in marriage. All of these questions are good to consider when you are thinking about taking the next step in your relationship. Open and honest discussions can help build a strong foundation that will weather anything life throws at the two of you. "Dream Big, Live Big. For Life's Events!"
