Real Wedding: Maria + Patrick’s Buena Vista Summer Wedding
On a gorgeous summer day in August, Maria and Patrick said “I do” surrounded by the breathtaking beauty of Buena Vista, Colorado. The Barn at Sunset Ranch provided the perfect backdrop for the day with sweeping mountain views for the ceremony and a warm, inviting barn for the reception.
The bridesmaids wore mismatched colorful dresses, creating a gorgeous palette that paired beautifully with the bright, seasonal florals. What was even more fun about this wedding party, the sister of the bride was the lead photographer on the day! When I first heard this, I thought, “how in the world will this work?” But along with having a talented second shooter, it was so fun to see Maria’s sister/Maid of Honor, stand behind the camera in her beautiful yellow dress and take photos of the happy couple!
The groom and wedding party opted for classic black suits, a timeless contrast against the vibrant hues of the day. And Maria? She absolutely glowed. From the moment she walked down the aisle to the final dance, her happiness was contagious.
The ceremony took place outdoors with the majestic Colorado mountains as the backdrop. It was truly a dream setting for any couple who loves natural beauty. After they said “I do,” guests headed inside The Barn at Sunset Ranch for a barn reception filled with twinkling lights, rustic charm, and vibrant pops of color. The evening was full of laughter, dancing, and unforgettable moments.
Maria and Patrick’s wedding was the perfect blend of Colorado mountain beauty, colorful design, and pure celebration. If match made in heaven are the perfect combo for your day!
