A COLORADO WEDDING AT RED ROCKS TRADING POST

 

As a Colorado wedding photographer, I get to witness so many unforgettable celebrations, but this Red Rocks wedding in Morrison, Colorado? Truly something special. Katie and Zack were such a fun couple to work with! With boho vibes, amazing style, and so much heart, it was one of those days that just sticks with you. 

The ceremony took place at the iconic Red Rocks Trading Post, framed by sweeping views and those signature red sandstone formations. Katie wore a dreamy lace gown from A&Be Bridal Shop, and it was the perfect mix of modern boho and elegance.

Something I still think about to this day was Katie’s custom denim jacket that said “Ride or Die” on the back. Not only was it beautifully made, but it showed her bubbly personality so well! We took portraits with her rocking the jacket and I swear, she could’ve been in a magazine. 

After the “I dos,” everyone made their way to The Rose Event Center in Golden, Colorado for the reception. Let me just say, this venue knows how to bring the vibes. Exposed brick, cozy lighting, and a great layout for dancing made it feel intimate yet spacious. 

Speaking of dancing, the live band The Great Family Reunion absolutely crushed it. Their energy was electric and had every guest (from kids to grandparents) on the dance floor all night. Live music just hits different, and these guys brought the house down. 

It was a celebration full of laughter, happy tears, and pure joy. One of my favorite parts about being a wedding photographer in Colorado is capturing weddings like this, where the couple brings their personality, their people, and their love story into every detail. 

If you’re dreaming up a boho wedding at Red Rocks or anywhere in Colorado, reach out! I’m already there with my camera.
