A Winter Wonderland Wedding at Devil's Thumb Ranch

Set in the snow-covered mountains of Colorado, Devil's Thumb Ranch provided the perfect backdrop for a winter wedding that can only be described as enchanting. On this snowy day, the air was filled with a crisp freshness, and the landscape was painted in pure white, setting the stage for a day that felt like it was plucked straight from a winter fairy tale.

The Bride’s Elegance and the Perfect Bouquet

The bride was a vision of timeless beauty, draped in a long-sleeve lace dress that perfectly matched the elegance of the snowy surroundings. Her bouquet was a lush, rounded arrangement of pristine white and creamy ivory flowers, subtly accented with greenery that added a touch of natural charm without detracting from the purity of the design. The simplicity of neutral blooms combined with the soft touch of foliage created a bouquet that was both classic and modern, perfectly complementing the bride’s sophisticated look.

Boutonnières and Flower Girls in Harmony

The groom and his groomsmen wore boutonnières that echoed the bride’s bouquet, with delicate white spray roses accented by sprigs of foliage. These small, yet impactful details tied the bridal party together beautifully. The flower girls, in their white dresses, wore halos of flowers that mirrored the bride's bouquet, creating a harmonious visual that was both innocent and elegant.

A Ceremony to Remember in the Broad Axe Barn

The ceremony took place in the Broad Axe Barn, a space that exudes rustic charm and warmth. We transformed the aisle into a pathway through a winter forest, lining it with oversized trees that reached towards the ceiling, their bases surrounded by soft candlelight. The flickering flames cast a warm glow on the snow outside, creating an intimate and serene atmosphere.

The bride and groom exchanged vows in front of the barn’s grand fireplace, which was adorned with a stunning arrangement of white florals and lush greenery. The fireplace, with its roaring fire, served as both a literal and figurative centerpiece, representing the warmth of their love on this cold, snowy day.

A Reception of Warmth and Romance in the High Lonesome Barn

Following the ceremony, guests were invited to the High Lonesome Barn for a reception that continued the theme of rustic elegance. The barn’s high ceilings and exposed beams provided the perfect canvas for us to drape greenery from the rafters, creating a canopy of natural beauty overhead.

The table layout featured all rectangular tables, each adorned with three arrangements of white florals, accented with greenery in antique-inspired pewter vases. The arrangements were intentionally kept low, allowing for conversation to flow freely across the tables, while still providing visual interest. Candles dotted the tables, adding a soft, romantic glow that made the entire space feel warm and inviting, despite the chill outside.
