Felicia + Jared
Park City, Utah
Wedding day weather: Perfect! 70’s and just beautiful.
Number of guests: Close to 300
Why did you choose the Mountains for your wedding?
We both love being outdoors and love nature. We thought it would be a neat experience for everyone. We ask couldn’t wait to bring our future kids back to ski and so the alpine Slides. For our venue, we chose Park City Mountain Resort. When we got to the top and took a look around- there was no where that compared. We were completely surrounded by beautiful mountains with nothing else in site. And then it was such a cool and unique experience to have the guests take the Alpine slide down from the ceremony.
Wedding day theme:
Rustic, classic, bright colors and fun. Most of the decor outside of the flowers… Was all me. I was inspired from Pinterest but I did a ton of searching to find all the pieces. Ordered a lot from etsy and online. Also put stuff together from Hobby Lobby.
Where did you find your inspiration?
From the fall and the landscape.I wanted bright flowers and colors that would pop and stand out against the mountainous backdrop. I didn’t know if we’d have fall leaves or not (we didn’t) but either way, I wanted colors that would compliment the fall and stand out. Then I chose the purple-ish palette for the girls because I thought it would compliment the bright oranges and brick reds.
I also looked at other weddings, Pinterest, my own vision.
How did you choose to personalize your wedding?
I absolutely loved the flowers! We chose bright colors was such a breathtaking contrast with the fall landscape. Sax Romney did all my flowers. Hoopes weddings gave me Ellie to set up the rest. She was great! I found most of the woodsy additions on Etsy! I wanted a lot of lighting as well. We also wanted it to be very personal…. The snowboards were fun- we had our guests design and sign them as they came in.
What was your favorite part of the day?
My strap popping! Lol jk- Definitely the vows. I was a nervous wreck but hearing Jared’s was something I will never ever forget. He got emotional and touched me so deeply with his words. Dancing with everyone til the very end was also amazing! Oh, and riding the chair lift down the mountain- it was the only moment Jare and I had with just the two of us.
What are three things you’re super glad you did?
- Party Crashers
- We went all out on the food
- Changed into a dress I could move in
Anything you wished you hadn’t done?
A veil- lol I loved it but took it off the minute I made it to the alter because the wind was blowing it everywhere. Waste of $900
How did you find and choose your vendors?
Lots of narrowing down and searching online
What is your best piece of advice to other mountain brides who are planning their weddings?
Just enjoy every moment and don’t let yourself stress over every detail! Also, don’t worry about other’s opinions. This is your day- do it exactly how you want! Make it special for you and your honey and cherish every second.
