Real Weddings: Cori + Nate

An October wedding in the heart of the Colorado mountains?  Yes please!  Cori and Nate’s nuptials were held at the heavenly Devil’s Thumb Ranch in Fraser, CO.  The Rocky Mountains were the spectacular backdrop for the outdoor ceremony. Dinner was served in the gorgeous Broad Axe Barn, made up of a historical building that was moved onto the ranch, piece by piece, and perfectly fit back together. Alexan Events completely transformed the barn into an elegant reception space with taffeta curtains and candlelit lanterns.  The violet and green color palette is so beautiful, and I’m completely head over heels for these amazing images from Preston Utley!
