Melissa and Derek were married at Red Rocks Park with their reception at Mt Vernon Event Center on July 3rd.  If you want unique wedding ideas, Melissa is the girl to talk to!

Their wedding was chalk full of unique details–many of which I hadn’t seen before (and that’s saying something)!  I’m saving some pictures for our wedding ideas series that I’m going to start in the fall, but here are just some of the cool details that Melissa had:  a quilt for everyone to sign that included some of their engagement photos, custom dress hangar, a flower ceremony in the same theme as a sand ceremony, super cute wedding programs, shoes that her bridesmaids signed in blue, gerber daisy and lime centerpieces, pink uplighting, heart shaped sparklers, and custom matchbooks.

Melissa and Derek love Colorado and wanted a lot of the unique Colorado scenery in their portraits.  With their ceremony at Red Rocks Park, it was easy to create some majestic Colorado portraits!

Edited to add…totally forgot to give credit to the amazing vendors that day–sorry!  Danielle from Something Classic Events provided the day of coordination and did an incredible job pulling together all of the details that made the wedding so beautiful, along with the florist, Dawn from Hillside Consultants.
