A gorgeous fall day in the heart of the Rockies is hard to beat! Tabitha, a California girl, and Noah, a Colorado guy, came together in Vail to share their wedding day. It was full of golden aspens, family heirlooms, the Gore Creek flowing by, and amazing sunshine. It always amazes me how fast the weather can turn in the Rockies. Right after their wedding day, we all woke up to a blanket of snow covering Vail!
The backdrop at Donovan Pavilion provided a private, quiet evening with their vows. Vail Vintage Magnolia wowed everyone with their amazing floral creations. Toasts sharing sweet stories of these two brought on lots of laughter in the evening. This was also the last wedding I photographed at 38 weeks pregnant. It was the best way to go out with a bang!
