Scott & Jo were married in downtown Denver at the beautiful Holy Trinity Church. Jo used deep reds throughout the wedding perfect for the winter time of year and so elegant. The groomsmen wore traditional black tuxedos and the bridesmaids were in long black gowns.
She carried a beautiful bouquet of red roses and after their emotional ceremony we all crossed the street for their reception at the historic Brown Palace Hotel. If you live in Denver or have ever visited during the holidays; many of the large hotels decorate their lobbies with huge trees and lots of lights. As a photographer it is always fun to photograph weddings that time of year with the amazing decor.
Their reception was in one of the many ballrooms the Brown Palace offers with their huge chandeliers and pretty wallpaper. Each of the tables were adorned with tall vases, red roses and black feathers. The whole set up was so beautiful and Jo even had a second bridal gown that changed into to dance the night away.
A pretty wedding bouquet I wanted to share for all the brides still planning their flowers. This was a design from the Flower House and I think it was fun and colorful. Just like your shoes the colors and style of your bouquet are a chance to show off your personality.
Over the years we have shot at least a dozen weddings with Holy Trinity for the ceremony and the Brown Palace for the reception. The two go very well together. History is abundant as well as character in the two venues. This wedding image was taken at Holy Trinity. The couple loved the old stairs, and with so many photographers shooting there over the years I wanted to create something denver had never seen before. We have this one hanging in the office, and it is a sneak peak of the rest of the wedding we will be posting on Friday.
Got a few rolls of film back from the lab today and we are still finishing up the digital files. Taylor and Blake are both firefighters and we did some photographs with their gear. Made for a romantic outing and I can’t wait to share soon. If I can’t share the whole thing I thought you would atleast want a taste.
