An intimate celebration at The Westin Riverfront with elevated western style, heartfelt moments, and stunning mountain scenery.
A Winter Wedding in Beaver Creek, Colorado Full of Emotion and Elegance
Sarah and Kelly’s romantic winter wedding in Beaver Creek, Colorado was the kind of day that feels like it came straight from a dream. Set against the snow-capped peaks of the Rocky Mountains, their intimate March celebration at The Westin Riverfront brought together everything they loved most: meaningful moments, stylish western details, and the people who mean the most to them.
Traveling from Florida, they chose Beaver Creek—a place that holds deep personal meaning—as the backdrop for their mountain wedding. With the Vail Valley as their setting and late-season snowfall dancing in the air, it was a true celebration of love in the heart of Colorado winter.
A Stylish, Elevated Western Wedding at The Westin Riverfront
Sarah and Kelly’s vision for their Beaver Creek wedding was a beautiful blend of elegance and relaxed western charm. Her flowing satin gown, pearl-trimmed hat, and long veil added softness and drama, while Kelly’s tailored tan suit and custom boots brought warmth and sophistication. From the soft pastel florals to the textured linens and refined ceremony setup, every detail reflected their intentional, fashion-forward style.
The Westin Riverfront, with its floor-to-ceiling views of the mountains and proximity to the Eagle River, offered the perfect combination of luxury and natural beauty—ideal for a Colorado winter wedding.
A Ceremony Filled with Nature’s Presence
One of the most cinematic moments of the day? Their outdoor ceremony. As Sarah and Kelly exchanged vows, a gentle wind swept through the mountains, wrapping her veil around both of them. Just as quickly, the sun broke through the clouds—followed by a light snowfall that felt like something out of a movie.
My favorite moment of the day: watching every guest stay completely present through the elements—wind, sun, and snow—as Sarah’s veil danced in the air. It was beautiful, emotional, and completely unforgettable.
Connection, Trust, and Photography That Felt Like Friendship
From the beginning, Sarah and Kelly made it clear that connection mattered to them. After their engagement session in the mountains, it was clear we were a perfect fit—and by the time the wedding came, I felt more like a trusted friend than a vendor. That trust allowed me to document them with honesty, ease, and care.
“So elegant and timeless… every emotion is brought to life, each photo tells its own story. Her attention to detail and creativity is unmatched.” – Sarah
