An Autumn Styled Shoot in Vail
From the style team: We wanted to show off what a mountain hip, yet romantic glam wedding could look like at Piney River Ranch. We went with deep purples, greenery and creams for the perfect fall wedding. Every magical moment was captured by Kristopher Lindsay Photography. Haley Hyman with Platinum Weddings & Events designed and conducted the whole shoot. Petal & Bean created all of the beautiful florals while Laney + Joel Hall with Platypus Papers designed all of the stationery. What really brought the overall look together were the rentals, provided by Alpine Party Rentals. The bride + groom, Mary + Trask, are an actual couple tying the knot this year! Their dog, Sadie decided to join the shoot and the pictures were just beautiful! The beautiful gown and tux were provided by Dora Grace Bridal. Tessa Capaldi with Megan Cary Artistry did the hair and makeup. The collaboration of these professionals was so incredible. Seeing this look come to life was indescribable!
A Montana Mountain Ranch Wedding
From the bride, Kelsie:
Johnny and I spend most of our time together in the mountains and we both knew that a mountain wedding would best suit us. We also wanted our guests to be able to experience a little piece of our lives.
Every time we set out for a mountain adventure no matter what season it is, we are both amazed by the beauty of nature itself, so our inspiration for our style of wedding was to create an overall natural appearance. 
Our dog Rocco held the “ Here Comes the Bride” sign. He had no practice before the wedding and walked down the aisle perfectly while our guests laughed.
Our ceremony was set right on the Big Hole River surrounded by mountains. Johnny’s brother, Joe had spent weeks building a willow arch for us. During the ceremony there were a few moments of thunder, which was very special to us, because when Johnny proposed to me it was on the side of a mountain during a heavy rain and lightning storm. We could not help but smile at each other. 
Saying our vows was one of the most emotional experiences I have ever felt. In that moment we both felt all the love, pain, and struggles we had went through to be able stand together in front of God, our family, and friends to be married.
We had white tablecloths with burlap runners and beautiful mountain bouquets in mason jars resting on top of fresh cut tree bark slabs with river rock sprinkled around everything. 
We rented big white tents for the reception so our guests could enjoy the beautiful Montana scenery. Two live bands played into the dark as the sun set behind the mountains. 
I wanted to have sunset photos, so Jacilyn took us away to enjoy a moment I will never forget. Being able to have that special moment with the one you love the most was magnificent!
