Winter Wedding Wonderland

December 16th. 2008 by Eddye | Filed Under | 24 comments

We just had to follow-up yesterday’s feature at Devil’s Thumb Ranch with another of James Christianson’s Colorado weddings … a wintery wonderland that left me in awe.

Katherine and Grant were married in November at the Beaver Creek Chapel in Avon, Colorado. Their reception was held at the Timber Hearth Grille in Cordillera, above Beaver Creek. I suppose when you plan a November wedding in Colorado you might expect snow, but this is just breathtaking. Looking at these photographs, it’s hard to believe Katherine was even chilly! {She found the vintage stole at a thrift shop.}

And what winter party would be truly complete without s’mores …

James has more really-really great weddings posted on his blog, and we’re not kidding when we tell you that you have to take a look for some great DIY ideas! Then … while your there, take a look at the stunning Italian countryside photos he took. Oh my, makes me wish I could do a Mary Poppins thing and jump right into the picture! HERE is the link for his gallery prints!

    I love this wedding! I just got married in October in Northern California and had a mostly pink wedding (you can do that in N. Cal. It was 85 degrees on Oct. 18) but a winter wedding was definitely on my mind. Having grown up in Canada I understand the subtle beauty of a winter scene.

  12. Gosh.... this is sooooo gorgeous.... it's almost as if it's a "Narnia" Wedding! So dreamy!
