Mountain Elegance Wedding Inspiration at Wild Canyon Ranch

January 9, 2017 The Styled Soiree

Wild Canyon Ranch, a new wedding location in Lake George, Colorado, served as the perfect backdrop for this mountain elegance wedding shoot. The first scene I styled was an elegant getting ready and boudoir scene. The location's stunning claw foot tub made for a natural place to start our story. Our stunning model hair was styled with a slightly 20's feel, with classic finger waves and Sarah Gabriel headpiece and veil. Then we moved to the bridal suite where photographer Carrie King captured some stunning getting ready shots.

For our groom, we chose a classic three-piece suit paired with a boutonnière of garden roses, pieris, and seeded eucalyptus, by floral designer Emma Lea. For the bride's bouquet, we picked muted tones that went with the neutral, textured feel of the Ranch. In her wild bouquet, caramel antique roses, ranunculus, and blooming pieris stole the show.

For the ceremony, I envisioned a simple space inspired by clean Scandinavian design. A manzanita branch held simple taper candles mixed with brass holders. Rustic chairs and a Nordic-inspired rug finished off the ceremony design.

The substantial stone fireplace made for a cozy location for the reception table. I picked a wood table and Emma created lush organic floral arrangements. At each place setting, petite jars of lingonberry jam served as a delicious favors for guests.

After dinner, a Fika station was setup along with the traditional wedding cake. Fika is a Scandinavian tradition, which simply means coffee break, but culturally is about getting together and appreciating the good things in life and especially while eating something sweet!
