An Autumn Mountain Wedding in Durango
Emilie & Chad | September 28th
From the bride…
Since we met while skiing at Purgatory, we knew we wanted to have our wedding in the San Juan Mountains. Cascade Village was very easy to work with and open to us getting creative with the venue space. We also loved the idea of our guests renting condos and staying close together for the weekend. Neither of us have much family living in Durango, so having all our family and friends travel in to spend the weekend with us was so very special.
THE CEREMONY
We were married in the Cascade meadow overlooking the Needles Mountains. We kept the decor simple with small boxes of flowers and a large garland of greenery for the arch. We kept the wedding party small to keep the ceremony as intimate and personal as possible.
THE DECOR
Since we chose Cascade Village for the beautiful mountain backdrop, we focused on using a lot of green foliage and Aspens for the decor.
ADVICE
Delegate tasks for the day of the wedding so you can relax and not feel rushed. Most friends and family are looking to help anyway.
