Aspen Weddings by James Christianson, II

October 6th. 2009 by Abby Larson | Filed Under | 27 comments

Before we continue with today’s incredible wedding, I wanted to mention a little something that is buzzing around the wedding industry. You might have heard yesterday that Elegant Bride and Modern Bride (along with a few other Conde Nast mags) have decided to close their doors. It’s so unbelievably sad to hear that such mainstays aren’t able to make it in this economy, that so many people who get to work on such lovely magazines will be out of work. Join our conversation over on Backstage where we chat about magazines and their slow but steady decline.

Ok, on to better and brighter things…like this ridiculously gorgeous wedding that the fabulous James Christianson photographed out in Aspen, Colorado. If you didn’t already fall in love with the chic style, the undeniable elegance, the pure magic of the day…you will with this next set of photographs!

A few other vendors helped to make this day so gorgeous and I wanted to make sure that they got a hearty shout out, as well. The Wedding Planner behind the affair was Denis Latousek of DL events, catering by The Little Nell and Super 8 Cinematography by Kevin Vol Qualen. Between this team and James Christianson, it was a pretty talented crew of vendors so it’s no suprise that they helped to build a day that is all together gorgeous.

    I bought it in ivory for my wedding dress. I think they only sell it in ivory and purple now, though I've seen it in black also. Good luck ladies!
