Oh my gosh you guys, Carolyn and Rob are the sweetest and down to earth couple ever! Their fall Denver wedding day was just so sweet and intimate. They had their absolute most special people by their side and got married on top of a hill overlooking the Rocky Mountains. My favorite memories are their amazing first look, Carolyn’s stunning dress she designed herself with the help of a company called Anomolie and of course their childhood photos as centerpieces at the reception!

Here’s more from this sweet couple:

Carolyn, cafe supervisor.

Robert, Major in the Air Force.

Your wedding in three words:

magical, fun, perfect!

Carolyn’s favorite memory of the day:

My favorite memory.. honestly it’s probably when Rob and I went back to the hotel to change into our “party” clothes and we got to spend a couple QUIET moments together and really realize that we were MARRIED!

Robert’s favorite memory of the day:

Seeing Carolyn in her dress for the first time.

Wedding planning advice for newly engaged couples:

Definitely book your photographer as soon as you can! The GREAT ones book up fast! (And Erin is the GREATEST – duh). Also, have a relaxed attitude – not everything is going to come out picture perfect. Stick to your budget! Have fun. Try and do some of it together – even if the bride has the whole thing in her head already.

Honeymoon location:

Haven’t taken it yet (military life) but will when we are en route to our next location! Thinking all-inclusive Caribbean.

– The Jams –

Grand Entrance:

Spotify DJ! So I don’t even remember.

First Dance:

Can’t Help Falling In Love – Elvis

Father/Daughter:

Tale as Old as Time – Beauty and the Beast

Mother/Son:

Tim McGraw but yikes can’t remember the name..

Cake Cutting:

Again, Spotify was our DJ so it was probably Frank Sinatra..

Anything else you’d like to add:

Erin will mention when taking pictures to REALLY soak it in and spend a moment together just basking in your newly married bliss – do it! Pull and Jim and Pam and take all the mental photos you can and enjoy your partner’s love on the first day of your new lives!
