Wedding ~ Jewlya & Frederick

Today one of our very best friends got married.... Fred to Jewlya! We lucked out with some amazing weather for this mountain wedding. Fred was the best man in our wedding and previously a business partner with my husband as well as a roommate of ours in our early years in Colorado. I'm so happy he has finally found the person to complete him!

Their wedding was very unique... many couples are now planning "Green" or Environmentally friendly events, but they went all out! Their invitations were evites, instead of gifts they requested friends and family to sign-up on a pot luck website to cater the event, recycling and compost friendly silverware and plates were used. They held their event at family friend's cabin in the mountain that didn't have electricity or running water. I'll admit I was quite skeptical when I first heard about all their plans, but it turned out to be wonderful day that suited the personalities of the couple! A generator was brought in so that the DJ could play music. That was all the energy they used for the entire event.... Candles lead to the ambiance later in the evening.

We met some really great people! My husband, Mike was co-best man with their friend Matt who introduced them and both gave some tear jerking speeches. We even hiked up to the large rock to see the stars as the event wound down.... A Great Day and the Perfect Reason to spend it in the mountains!
