Walking in a Winter Wonderland
A Mountain Winter Wedding Inspiration
Ludwig Photography | Laramie, Wyoming | Northern Colorado
Weddings aren’t only for Summer! While it can be chilly, winter weddings can be very charming and romantic if you can brave the cold. I was able to collaborate with the many wedding professionals in Laramie to create a dreamy winter wedding inspiration. Lexi and Riley, being the troopers that they are, agreed to brave the cold and model for us.
I wanted to capture the rugged and elegant beauty that defines Colorado, Wyoming, and the the Rocky Mountain West. I also have a family ranch on the Wyoming/Colorado border which I love taking my wedding couples to. It sits nestled in a valley across from Rocky Mountain National Park. The scenic views from the top of the ridge take your breath away. It is a winter wonderland and looks like it came out of a fairy tale. I knew this would be the perfect place to capture what I was envisioning.
The tux and dress were provided by Mountain Valley Bridal. Amanda is wonderful to work with. We picked a simple blush and grey that looked gorgeous in the late afternoon sun. Lexi’s incredible bouquet was designed by Beth from The Wild Rose and the ring from Alexanders Fine Jewelry was stunning featuring a yellow diamond. Also, the custom invitation was made by Michelle at Creative By Me.
Having a studio and portrait gallery in downtown Laramie Wyoming I am surrounded by amazing wedding specialists. I really wanted to showcase local talent in a collaborative effort to create beauty. We all had a wonderful time coordinating each detail. The day was full of lots of laughter, smiles and a warm fire and hot chocolate afterwards. In other words, it was a perfect day.
