Just when I thought that I’ve been to every wedding venue in Colorado, I get reminded at Carolyn and Bradley’s wedding in Lyons of how many options there are for finding a unique venue. Lyons Rver Bend is perfectly nesteled along a mountain stream and was the perfect backdrop for photos and for their ceremony.
This was my first time photographing at a bridal tent. Trust me, check out their photos and you’ll be amazed too. It was the perfect blend of rustic and class with the comfy couches and dangling chandeliers draped with the thick canvas material.
Among Carolyn and Bradley’s favorite peeps, their dog Berkeley got to spend the day with them as well. Berkeley was in heaven while wandering the lawn and stream. All while being loved on by passers by. I loved the casual atmosphere of the day. I could tell how much their guests enjoyed it too. From playing lawn games along the river, grabbing a drink from the magical bar nested under a giant evergreen. Lyons River Bend was a delightful spot for this awesome couple to celebrate their love! Thanks Carolyn and Bradley for trusting me and welcoming us into your lives! Can’t wait for you to see the rest of your photos! -Ryan
