Modern, pink and gold mountain wedding: Erin + Constantine

February 5, 2014

We’re a little bit jelly of Erin’s dress. She’s one of the lucky brides that serendipitously found it while perusing the racks at Nordstrom. It’s not even a “wedding dress”, but ended up being perfect for her Mammoth wedding. Lucky her, right? And she paired it beautifully with a bracelet that’s been in her family since the 1880s. Oh, to be so lucky, and to have such a fun with a spectacular view. Thanks to the husband + wife duo behind Troy Grover Photographers for sharing this one with us today!

Love the playful sign, but think we love this little man in his J.Crew suit more!

Things really could not have gone more perfectly for Erin + Const, but if they did have to share something they learned from the wedding planning process, it would be this:

Don’t sweat the details. Make it personal, but don’t make yourself crazy. Outsource as much as you can, and focus your attention on the things your guests will experience — the music, the drinks, and activities (we had a fire pit where they could make their own s’mores, a sparkler exit, and a Mammoth mascot for them to dance with). Don’t make anyone wait for anything. Be thoughtful about timing, throw a great party, and have fun!
