Wedding Planning in Every Season with Bridal Guide Magazine

See this content in the original post

Bridal Guide's September/October 2018 issue hits newsstands this week and we are thrilled to have contributed to their "To Every Season" article, providing inspiration and planning tips for every time of the year. MLE couple Michelle and Mark's ski-inspired soiree was the perfect fit for a cozy winter wedding. 

The New York couple wed at Stein Eriksen Lodge with the gorgeous snow-capped mountains as the backdrop. Michelle wore a stunning strapless dress while her maids were draped in a deep plum with coordinating blush pink stoles. Even the flower girl was dressed to perfection as she presented the wedding rings in the most beautiful birchwood boxes.

Following the ceremony, guests entered the ballroom and were greeted by a combination of round and vineyard tables that incorporated shades of plum, blush pink, champagne, and rose gold which complemented the room's dark wood accents. The tables, adorned with eye-catching floral arrangements and candles, featured rose gold flatware and a beautifully textured charger accompanied by a custom menu and a small flower.

The couple included big-city elements through the formal dress code, pillar candles, gold chiavari chairs, satin linens. Rustic elements were also prevalent throughout including birch tree stumps decorated with flowers, skis that served as a guestbook, and a pinecone cake topper which highlighted the natural beauty of the surrounding mountains. 

Guests danced the night away in the candlelit and cozy ballroom as the groom sang along to every word of each Sinatra song. This elegant mountain wedding left these big-city guests in awe of the beauty Utah has to offer.
