2016 was quite a year in the Bella offices! With over 20 weddings and events over the course of the year, we were thrilled to spend our year celebrating so much love and such fabulous couples.

While we love Colorado — it is, of course, the place we call home! — there’s so much more to the mountains than just our state. Those spectacular views, the warm hospitality, and the hidden spots perfect for celebrating love and romance abound across the West, and getting out to explore and celebrate all over this amazing part of our country is one of our team’s favorite things to do. At the top of our list of places we’re dying to work, just a few hours north of the Bella office, is the absolutely gorgeous Brush Creek Ranch in Saratoga, Wyoming. Continue reading
In October, I headed across the Atlantic for an event I’d been looking forward to for months: The Engage!16 Europe summit in Puglia, Italy.

There’s nothing more exciting than a couple that comes to us with a Big Idea. When we started working with Kedzie and Ed on their August 1, 2015 wedding at the Four Seasons in Vail, we knew we’d get along amazingly. Why? Because they wanted to walk down the aisle OVER the Four Seasons’ pool! Continue reading
What a year 2015 was! We had 20 weddings between April and December, and had the absolute pleasure of celebrating with couples from across the country. We had the honor of planning the first same-sex wedding at Beaver Creek Chapel, … Continue reading
