Surprise! Snow! Larissa & Lane’s Wedding Day

Real Wedding
Written By Evin Urban
A bride and groom smile at one another on a snowy Idaho Springs Colorado wedding day. The bride's bouquet is orange and purple.

Larissa and Lane have been together for 10-years, and their love of the outdoors, dogs (their pup Wrigley was an unforgettable part of their day), and their work in medicine bonded them. But more importantly, they are just a whole lot of fun! Throughout the wedding planning process, we fell in love with their silliness and humor with one another, adventurous spirits, as well as their can-do attitudes. Just two days before the wedding, we had a call with Larissa where she was determined to march on with their wedding, even if the expected 6-inches of snow wrecked havoc.

And, it was perfect.

The warmth, fun, and silliness their guests brought to their day was unforgettable. It was truly an honor of a lifetime to celebrate with them on a beautiful, snowy, Colorado day.

Pure beauty!
