Black-tie Winter Wedding at Blue Sky Ranch

Mandy knew she wanted a winter ski wedding.

MANDY & MATT

Amanda (Mandy) and Matthew (Matt) currently live and practice law in Boston, but met years ago in a study group while attending law school. “After spending weeks in the same study room, we went out on our first date,” Mandy says.

“We still have a significant debate over who did the asking.” Four years later and after a grueling work week, Matt insisted the couple go out to dinner despite Mandy’s protest that she wasn’t up for it. “He insisted on taking the long way through the Public Garden.

Matt stopped me along the side of the pond at the spot of our first kiss, told me he loved me and dropped to one knee asking me if I’d marry him. I was so shocked I almost knocked us into the water. When he stood up and turned me to the side, I saw both his family and mine walking toward us. That is when I truly lost it.”

     

“I grew up ski racing on the East Coast, and winter has always been my favorite season. Although not a skier when we met, Matthew picked it up quickly due to his hockey roots,” Mandy explains. While dating, they enjoyed ski vacations in Park City and quickly fell in love with the ski town.

Mandy and Matt kicked off the weekend with ice skating at Park City’s Resort Center followed by dinner with the wedding party at a rental home. Everyone skied the following day before the couple hosted a welcome dinner at the Wasatch Brew Pub.

  

    

A NEW YEAR’S EVE WEDDING

Mandy and Matt wrote their own vows for their Blue Sky Ranch wedding. “Over the years we had been together, we had been through significant life events, ranging from the Boston Marathon bombing, to graduation from law school, from a cancer diagnosis, to cancer-free and finally starting our married lives together.”

In lieu of a guestbook, guests penned New Year’s wishes to the newlyweds onto notecards. “We closed the night with a midnight Champagne toast.”

LOCAL CUISINE & SIGNATURE COCKTAILS

We wanted a hearty, delicious meal with a nod to locally-sourced ingredients so that our guests could fully experience all that this destination had to offer,” Mandy says of the meal ranging from local bacon-wrapped dates drizzled with honey and microgreens, to the Snuck Farms baby lettuce salad, followed by a choice of hard cider-brined chicken or mesquite-grilled skirt steak.

Guests sipped signature cocktails: a Bubbly Ginger to represent Mandy and Mountain Manhattan (a traditional Manhattan made with local ingredients) for Matt.

“We ended our night with a late-night snack paying homage to each of our hometowns.” Mandy chose Mini Fenway Franks for her hometown of Boston and Matt selected Buffalo Chicken Sandwiches for his hometown of Buffalo, Massachusetts.

   

RANCH WEDDING PARTY TIME

One of Mandy’s most memorable moments came “when Matthew and our very close friend McCauley Braun surprised me by performing ‘Ho Hey’ by The Lumineers.”

Matt adds, “My most memorable moment was when I took a step back and actually was able to take in everything that was going on around me about halfway through the reception. The band was playing, Mandy’s grandmother was doing the limbo under two neckties tied together, all of our closest friends and family were crazily dancing about and I saw my now wife with the biggest smile on her face. It was then that it started to sink in that I was married, and we were having the night of our lives.”

Real Wedding: Mckay + Parker

By Rachel Halversen

Two grooms, custom suits and a magical snowy night at McCune Mansion in SLC. What could be more magical? 

The Couple

 
Mckay and Parker actually met online! Surprise, surprise, two gay people meeting online? As cliche as it sounds, the couple says it was actually pretty sweet. Then, they were together for 6 years before getting engaged.
The pair wanted to have the opportunity both to propose and be proposed to. For Mckay’s proposal, he suggested the pair go on a hike on a Sunday morning. They drove up one of the many canyons surrounding Salt Lake City and hiked up a lovely trail that ending at a lake. They walked around the lake and came across a fallen aspen log. Parker had wandered off a ways and when he turned around, saw Mckay on one knee with a ring, asking Parker to marry him.

Parker’s proposal happened the following month, the Saturday after Thanksgiving, during some Christmas tree shopping. Candles were lit in the snow and a ring was sitting on a log in front of the tree, which was when Parker asked Mckay to marry him in return.

The Wedding

Mckay and Parker got married on December 16, 2017, at the McCune Mansion, and walked down the aisle together in custom Bespoke Custom Clothing suits. At the altar, a close friend officiated a traditional hand-fasting, or commitment ceremony, to commemorate the union of the two love-birds.

“We knew we wanted to get married somewhere warm and cozy, and the McCune Mansion was the perfect fit,” they said.

  

The Menu

As part of the menu, the duo selected two signature cocktails to accompany traditional wines and champagnes. The McCune Mansion catered, and served a great chicken dish. They also handed out an assortment of finger foods for cocktail hour. Each groom picked a signature cocktail to serve guests: one chose a French 75 and the other a refreshing cranberry moscow mule.
The grooms’ wedding cake was a tall, gold-foiled, almost too-pretty-to-eat pastry by Carrie’s Cakes. It was a two tier cake, one tier was German chocolate and one carrot cake.

Other Details:

“The nice thing about same-sex weddings is that you get to throw out a lot of traditions, if you feel like you don’t need them,” says Mckay. For example, the couple threw out the traditional male-female bridal party idea by instead combining both sides and just having their closest friends in one party. Mckay and Parker got their suits from Bespoke Custom Clothing. After cocktails and dinner, the couple danced their first dance to “First Day of My Life” by Bright Eyes.

Real Wedding: Addie + Nate

THE COUPLE

Addie and Nate started dating after Addie borrowed Nate’s calculator for an exam. They met at a local game night, and when she met up with him to return his calculator, he asked her out on their first date. Nine months later, they went on a hike to find rose petals, a video diary of their relationship, lights, and Nate on one knee.

THE WEDDING

After a four-month engagement, the couple were married in the Payson LDS Temple with a reception at Thanksgiving Point. “I don’t love knick-knacks,” says Addie “So I loved that our venue was beautiful in and of itself.”

THE MOOD

Nate and Addie’s reception focused heavily on the floral design, highlighting the feminine blush tones in the arrangements and bridesmaids gowns while adding in a dash of class with accents in Addie’s favorite color: gold. Farmhouse tables and lush floral garlands act as the decor for the reception center, and wreaths of greenery compliment Thanksgiving Point’s natural beauty and act as a backdrop for the couple in their receiving line. The twinkling lights set up around the venue add a little extra sparkle, creating the perfect magical setting for this gorgeous celebration.

THE CUISINE

Originally, the reception refreshments were only going to be desserts, but after attending a tasting at Thanksgiving Point, Addie and Nate knew they had to include more selections of the dishes they tried and loved. Platters of fruit, salad and small desserts were provided, and sandwiches sat ready for those ready for dinner. “We went to that tasting and not only were the dishes delicious, they were also really pretty which we loved,” Addie says.

At the end of the night, the couple marked their union by cutting into a lovely, simple, vanilla and cream cheese cake by Annie’s Cakes.

THE TUNES

Nate loves to dance, according to Addie, so he put together a nearly hour-long playlist that the couple danced to with their guests at the end of the reception. Addie danced with her dad to “My Little Girl” by Tim McGraw, and Nate surprised his mom by creating a remix of her favorite Jack Johnson and dance songs for their mother-son dance. The couple presented their first dance to the tune of “You Are Gold,” then spent the rest of the evening jamming with their favorite family and friends.

“That was probably one of my favorite parts of the day, other than our temple sealing,” says Addie. “I’ve never danced that hard in my life!”

Real Wedding: Hallie + Geoff

After the devastating 2017 fires in California damaged their wedding venue beyond repair, Hallie and Geoff turned to Utah wedding professionals to pull off a last-minute dream wedding.

The Couple

Hallie and Geoff met online in Houston, after Geoff moved to the area for work. The pair dated for about a year before Geoff proposed, and they began preparing for a December wedding. Geoff worked out of town during the week, and pretended that he wouldn’t be back to see Hallie that weekend, to make sure she was surprised when she walked into their condo to see him on one knee!

“He had candles, rose petals, an amazing view, the whole nine yards,” says Hallie. “It was a really intimate and special moment, just for the two of us.”



The Wedding

Originally, Hallie and Geoff wanted to get married in the heart of Napa Valley’s wine country, and had about two months of planning under their belt when the October fires hit the area. Hallie’s parents suggested Stein Ericksen lodge in Park City as an alternative, when the hotel and venue reported significant fire damage. Both Hallie and Geoff grew up going to the mountains, so they decided Park City would be the perfect destination.

“The destruction in California was devastating for us and for the area, but almost selfishly it was meant to be for us,” Hallie says. “It really represented who we are as a couple. So it could not have been more perfect in the end.”

Hallie was extremely worried that a winter wedding in the mountains would be “too Christmas-y,” so they chose bright pink and purple hues as their base colors, to offset some of the holiday vibes. The choice was perfect, and made for a striking wedding against the iconic Utah backdrop.



 

The Mood

The ceremony was romantic and classic, with touches of vintage vibes to go along with Hallie’s dazzling 20’s-style gown. Because the event was a destination for everyone in attendance, they really wanted to make sure their décor fit the surroundings, and brought the great outdoors, indoors. The ceremony and reception were filled with warm light and rich greenery, which kept the “wintery” appeal going all throughout the night.

Their dinner was 3 courses, including lobster bisque (as a nod to Geoff’s northeastern upbringing), salad and traditional beef tenderloin and sea bass.

The Moments

Hallie says that her favorite part of the day (other than being married to the love of her life, of course) was the big reveal of the dining room. Because of the last-minute planning, Hallie and Geoff didn’t get the chance to see the room entirely set up in advance, and got the big reveal at the same time as all of their guests.

“The Stein had big curtains over the windows and did a dramatic reveal after our cocktail reception,” Hallie shared. “I think we all did a collective gasp at how gorgeous it all looked. It was so special to have that moment alongside my guests. It was just as much a surprise for us as it was for them!”

After dinner and cake, Hallie and Geoff had their first dance to “I Put a Spell on You” by Nina Simone, and were off on their happily ever after!

 

More than anything, Hallie says that they couldn’t have pulled off this quick wedding without the help of her amazing vendors. The list below pulled together to give these lovebirds the wedding of their dreams, despite the complications.

Winter Berry Romance

We are welcoming winter with a romance-packed shoot from Hawkeye Photography. Ashley Hawkes, the photographer, shared a bit of their inspiration:

“When the world is cold and sometimes it seems colorless, mother nature still finds a way to provide little pockets of colorful beauty such as a bright singing cardinal bird, or in the enticing winter berries that seem to beat all odds. This time of year we are drawn to love and the colors that represent that feeling. We wanted to inspire the winter, holiday, and early spring bride who dreams of a elegant wedding while still incorporating the colors of the season. The accents are modern and rich in textures, contrasts, and colors. The gown pushes the traditional envelope with a red fringed lace top and a cloud like tulle bottom. The hair kept in a simple classic chignon up do with an edginess to the makeup palette. The table was adorned with metallic and classic blacks/whites complimented in contrast with bright winter fruits and greens. The usage of stripes in both the linens and on the cake keep the feeling masculine and clean.”

Those reds sure do pop in the quiet muted tone of the rest of the images, and we can’t get enough.

The bouquet has us head over heels for this crimson trend!

Real Wedding: Karen + Steve at La Caille

THE COUPLE

Karen Manotas and Steve Merrell met studying in a coffee shop in Salt Lake City, and Steve slipped his number into her papers. She didn’t call until a week later, when they coincidentally met again at a different shop. Four years later, Steve proposed over tea at the same table where they first met. 

THE WEDDING

Karen and Steve were married in a classic ceremony in La Caille’s vineyard venue.

Both of Karen’s parents escorted her down the aisle to read her vows to her soon-to-be husband and stepdaughter. The bridesmaids wore rose gowns, and the groom’s party arrived in grey suits. The bride paraded down the aisle in a fitted, classic lace dress by Martina Liana, complete with a gorgeous low back and sweetheart neckline. Long lace illusion sleeves billow from her sides, the perfect look for an autumn wedding.

The couple chose Utah as their nuptial destination as a way to treat friends and family who were travelling to celebrate their wedding. “I am originally from Florida and moved to Utah 6 years ago for medical school,” Karen says. “Since then I have fallen in love with the mountains and our picturesque skyline.”

 

 

THE MOOD

“Our vision for our wedding matched the venue: romantic and elegant with a modern touch,” Karen says. The decor mirrored the lush floral theme of La Caille’s spaces, with varied candelabra centerpieces wound up in fresh eucalyptus, succulent terrariums and bursting flower arrangements. Each table was draped in rose velvet lined and surrounded by champagne chivari chairs, matching the gold accents in the tablescapes. Karen drew inspiration largely from La Caille’s stunning spaces, and worked with AOO Events to finalize the elegant final vision. 

 

 

THE MENU

For their reception dinner, the couple and their guests were served from a classic La Caille buffet wedding menu. Karen’s favorite dish was the short ribs. “The ribs were to die for,” she says. “I loved that we actually got to eat our full dinner, it was one of our main goals for the night!”

For dessert, the couple had a 3-tiered gold and blush wedding cake created by Salt Cake City. The top two tiers were banana cream and vanilla cake, and the bottom was raspberry bliss, all covered in clean white buttercream.

THE RECEPTION

The reception took place in the Grand Pavilion greenhouse, with lush flowers and greens lining every surface. The bride’s big-day vision included an abundance of candles, so every free space was illuminated by romantic candelabra and votive arrangements in gold to compliment the blush palette linens from Mosaic Linens. Assorted ranunculi, dollar and gunni eucalyptus, roses, succulents and king proteas adorned every table.

Dancing was one of the favorite memories of the night. The couple had their introductory first dance to the tune of “You Are the Best Thing” by Ray La Montagne.  Karen’s father is Colombian, so the father-daughter dance became a fun-filled Salsa showcase, and a tender moment for everyone involved.

Above all, the couple shared that they were glad they took the time to simply enjoy themselves on their wedding day.

“Friends had mentioned to me how they had felt like their wedding day was ‘one big blur,’ and that they wished they would have taken the time to enjoy their wedding,” Karen says. “During our wedding day, I did not feel like that at all! I remember talking with and dancing with each and every person, Steve and I ate a full dinner including dessert, and we had time to take in all the details and work we had so carefully planned in the leading months.”

Back in Matte

Matte black is having a moment. Velvety, sleek and rich, the finish can take a palette from dark and harsh to sophisticated and elegant. While we’ve often seen it paired with gold for a trendy combo, we are loving the surprisingly chic black-and-blue combo put together by stationer Elizabeth Santa Cruz and photographer Breanna White.

 

Those table settings (especially the flower petal mats) flow together effortlessly, and the cake! Super subtle, but clean and classy just the same. The beflowered paper suites deliver what every bride didn’t know she even wanted – totally vintage, with only a hint of modern flair – and invite you to step right into the pages of your favorite old-English novel. What could be more romantic? Matte black makes an entrance here as well, offering just enough base for the colors of the suites to pop magnificently.

Making a Splash

“I want to be a mermaid when I grow up.” A common dream when a girl is young, but usually outgrown by the time their nuptials roll around. But what if that need not be the case? Madison Lauren Designs brought new meaning to mermaid style with this photoshoot at the Saratoga Hot Springs. 

“For this photo shoot, we wanted to try something that we hadn’t seen before and put us out of our comfort zone a bit,” said Madison Satterlee, the dress designer.

With the months of snow-capped settings upon the horizon, the quest for color in photoshoots can become a challenge. As the autumnal reds, oranges, and browns fall far too fast, Satterlee took a different palette approach: deep blues and delicate pastels. 

The hot springs offer a lagoon of blue hues year round, surrounded by traditional lakeside greenery. Brilliant sunrises and sunsets bring just the right about of sparkle to the table.  

The details of the dress give it even more of a water goddess vibe, with the flowy, delicate lace detailing, and the statement-making two piece cut. “I made sure to use a fabric that was light and airy, and would be able to move with the water.” Satterlee said. This whimsical-bohemian hybrid dress partnered with the serenity of the hot springs allow for any bride to fulfill their childhood mermaid fantasies.

The fairytale look is completed with a fresh, soft-hued flower crown.

Floral Inspiration: Cactus & Tropicals’ Event Showcase

Fall is in full bloom, no question. What better way to usher in the season, than to create with autumn’s showiest petals. Whether you need ideas for tablescapes or weddings, Cactus & Tropicals gives “wild side” a whole new meaning. During the garden boutique’s annual event showcase, we spotted wild, neutral-toned, Utah-inspired fall blooms. Here’s what Cactus & Tropicals suggests for spectacular fall floral art.

1. Neutral Palette

Quiet tans, vibrant rust and rich red hues were the stars of the night, creating a look that celebrates the fall colors that adorn the Utah peaks this time of year.

2. Stay True to Your Season

Even though spring is usually hailed as nature’s most beautiful time for blooms, who says nature’s prep for winter can’t be gorgeous, too? Not Cactus & Tropicals. Dry grasses and stalks add height and dimension to arrangements throughout the venue.

3. Naturally Inspired

Even the desserts followed the design course of the night, with wood painted, intricately design and delicately adorned cakes.

4. Let Some Color In

Color-packed bouquets aren’t limited to just spring and summer brides. On display was a rainbow of fall floral arrangements to match every bride’s color scheme.

5. Think Big

Stacked arrangements with tall stalks are sure to catch the eye at an entrance, on a table, or anywhere else that needs some dimension and sprucing in your venue.
