Happy Monday! I’ve been so excited to share the joy that was Melissa & Kyle’s Vail mountain wedding. It was a beautiful October day – deliciously crisp mountain air, the trees shimmering gold, and the beautiful backdrop of the Sonnenalp as their wedding venue. Melissa and Kyle are the sweetest couple – so loving and warm, and so clearly madly in love with each other. The entire event was orchestrated with style and precision by Emily and her team at Bella Design and Planning – flawless perfection. A few favorites..
