Erica and Kevin, Colorado locals with a deep connection to the mountains, envisioned a weekend that felt both grounded and unforgettable. With just 40 of their closest friends and family, they chose Gold Mountain Ranch—a secluded, sweeping property above Ouray—as the backdrop for an intimate celebration. The day began slowly, intentionally, with a private first look and vow exchange at one of my favorite hidden spots nearby. After soaking in the quiet together, we returned to the ranch where their ceremony unfolded in the golden light of late afternoon. The celebration that followed—dinner under the open sky, heartfelt toasts, and quiet moments between it all—was a reflection of what matters most: connection, presence, and a shared love for wild, beautiful places.
