L Style Bar Turns One!

November 30, 2017

L Style Bar Turned One & Man Was It Fun!

We celebrated L Style Bar's first birthday! We spent the night with friends, family, and our favorite clients showcasing L Style's brand new services in their brand new space in the Larimer Square Walkway! Not only were they turning 1 (which is enough to celebrate), but they also expanded to another location right across the hall! All of our guests enjoyed complimentary mini make overs, braid bar, spray tans, and lots of wine! There were amazing desserts created by the talented Astonishing Cakes that were a major hit!

As a gift, we created this awesome L canvas for the salon using Moss and a lot of hot glue! We love little projects just like this one!

The owner of the salon, Liz, who also owns Beauty on Location Studio is a dear dear friend to us and it was so nice for her and her accomplishments to be celebrated! She is a killer girl boss and mom and she deserves everything that has come in the short one year at L Style! Cheers to many more years and celebrations to come!

Happy Friendsgiving Yall!

November 23, 2017

Happy Thanksgiving Everybody!

As today is the day of giving thanks and eating way to much food with the people you love most, I figured it was only fitting to share our "Friendsgiving" styled shoot with you! We shot this last year so its an oldie, but a goodie. When designing this shoot I wanted it to feel like something any twenty something (that is a little extra) could do for a fancy thanksgiving dinner with her friends. I am always so inspired by color and texture that I wanted to take the classic fall color palate and add in some pops of pink and fur! We hope you love it as much as we did!

Bridal Fashion Week Fall 2017

November 15, 2017

Welp...

We may not have made it all the way out to New York for Bridal Fashion Week but that doesn't mean we weren't picking favorites ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ . I was the most obsessed with the most out there dresses. Give me all the colors, sheer, and funky details. My favorites were two piece jump suits, and dresses with capes and jackets. Keep on scrolling to see all of my faves...

Travis & Chelsea's Autumn Vail Wedding

November 7, 2017

Isn't it great when you get to help your friends get married?

I was lucky enough to meet Chelsea my freshman year at the University of Colorado while rushing Delta Gamma. She was a mentor to the freshman girls and taught us a crash course in how to survive college. She is the sweetest person you will ever meet and I was so lucky to help her plan the best day of her life. Chelsea and Travis met while Chelsea attended the University of Colorado and Travis attended Colorado State University. Although the two attended rival universities they had known each other for years while growing up in the same city. Chelsea and her girls got ready in a cabin in Vail while wearing red matching bridesmaids flannels. All the girls wore cowboy boots under their high neck, burgundy, floor length dresses. The Coe's were married at the Beaver Creek Chapel in a Catholic ceremony. Chelsea & Travis stuck with tradition and did not see eachother before the ceremony. This made for some really great photos of Travis seeing his bride for the very first time. After the ceremony, the guests traveled to Donovan Pavilion for cocktail hour, while the newlyweds snuck off to take photos in the color changing leaves. After being announced into the reception as Mr. & Mrs. for the very first time, the couple sat down at their head table and enjoyed a beautifully plated dinner provided by Vails very own Taste 5 Catering. The Tables were decorated with DIY decorations created by the bride and her mother. The centerpieces were multiple birch tree candles tied with gold twine and finished with greenery. The couple cut their two tiered birch tree inspired cake, which tied in perfectly with the theme of the wedding. The music was a perfect mix of pop meets country and everyone in the pavilion danced the night away. It was a perfect fall night for a mountain wedding.

J & B Elopement at the Salt Flats

October 24, 2017

J & B Elopement at the Salt Flats

Let me start by saying Josh and Baylie are my best friends. Upon them getting engaged in NYC during a short business trip, they asked me to help them plan their wedding. Yay! Me and Baylie immediately went to work and went a little Pinterest crazy. We had her whole wedding planned for about 100 people in an industrial style venue. As the day grew closer Baylie, her bff Bailey, and I met up at Postino to discuss wedding details over wine and bruschetta. (Denver readers: if you haven't been to Postino yet go now...like now.) We sat down at our table and Baylie dropped the bomb of news. Her and Josh no longer wanted to have a big, over the top, and over priced wedding and wanted to elope! We were surprised, but obviously wanted them to be happy more than anything else! As soon as we knew J + B wanted to elope, we contacted Morgan, their photographer, to discuss possible locations for their elopement. Morgan suggested the Salt Flats in Utah and we immediately fell in love! (How could we not, wait 'til you see these pictures!) The couple flew into Salt Lake the morning of September 9th with her bouquet from Project Floral as her carry on. The two of them got ready together in their hotel room and the crew drove the two hour drive to this picture perfect location. Upon arrival, and freaking out about the fact that they were driving and standing on top of pure salt, J + B walked off into the distance and exchanged their personal vows they had written to each other. Just the two of them, exactly the way they wanted. I cannot thank Morgan of Lady Ilg Photography enough for capturing this special day. The newlyweds capped of their wedding day by getting matching tattoos with the coordinates of where they got married. Ugh cute! See all the beyond stunning photos from this perfect day!
