Skyview at Fall River Estes Park Colorado Wedding

July 18, 2023

Nikki & John found me in January 2023 and we immediately hit it off. They stressed that they wanted a photographer who not only really captured the vibrancy of their day (hint: they had TROPICAL flowers!) but also was able to blend in and hang with their family and friends! I have to say, we had a blast! Their tropical floral theme was EVERYTHING amongst the backdrop at Skyview at Fall River Village in Estes Park, Colorado.

The details of birds of paradise and palm fronds against the stark intensity of Colorado Mountains was so fun to photograph! We had a blast throughout their day and Skyview was amazing to work with!

Because Nikki & John went with the 6 hour package, and wanted to stretch it out until grand exit, I got there right before ceremony but still managed to sneak in a few getting ready pics in the bridal suit of Nikki.

Then it was ceremony time! The ceremony was filled with everything you could want at a wedding - laughter, tears, and great views! Everyone was in great spirits.

After ceremony, John & Nikki took a moment to themselves to have a drink and connect. Then we popped back out to the ceremony site for bridal party and family photos!

After formal photos, we sent family and friends back to cocktail hour so we could take a few couples portraits of just Nikki & John. The view from and around Skyview of Estes Park is literally breathtaking. I love it there!

After couple portraits we hoofed it back to the reception for a grand entrance, toasts and first dances. John is a DJ and had some of his friends come to spin tracks and put on a visual show during the dance party. At the end of the night, they were sent off with a grand exit of glow sticks! It was truly the best time.
