HALEY AND BRANDON | COLORADO DESTINATION WEDDING

From Danielle DeFiore: Haley and Brandon’s whimsical, wildflower-filled Colorado summer wedding took place at the prettiest of overlooks in the heart of the Front Range: on the grounds of Cherokee Ranch and Castle, a stunning venue just south of Denver. The decor and details of the day were only as bright and colorful as the couple, themselves—Hayley, a graphic designer, created a custom watercolor invitation suite that matched the bridesmaids’ bouquets, she wore a pink Rivini gown with a layered blush organza skirt that Brandon complemented with a baby blue suit, and they stated their vows in front of a semicircle of ruscus, delphinium, and clematis that looked as if it was freshly picked from the surrounding fields.

But despite the elegant setting, Haley and Brandon’s celebration was perfectly suited to their relaxed personalities. Their close friend and “designated third wheel,” Joe Jonas, officiated the ceremony, offering personalized advice about navigating the peaks and valleys of life and the joy of doing it as a pair. After dancing the night away under a full moon, all the guests grabbed sparklers to surround Brandon and Haley as they took one last dance, just the two of them—to “Beautiful Thing” by Grace Vanderwaal. It was the perfect, sentimental ending to their beautiful Colorado wedding focused on the family, friends, and journeys that had brought Haley and Brandon together. FEATURED on BRIDES
