There are many wedding venues in Colorado, but none quite like C Lazy U Ranch… which is why it was the perfect location for Andrew & Karen’s weekend of activity and celebration. Andrew from Arizona, and Karen from Ohio, wanted to show their friends & family why they call Colorado their home.
Our weekend with the group started off with a day filled of archery, volleyball, horseback riding, and square dancing. It was a great precursor to the big day and a great way to understand everyone’s relationship with these two a little better. Come Saturday, everyone met up for a quick brunch before heading off to bridal prep. Once everyone was dressed and ready, we headed up to a beautiful overlook for their first reveal.
Andrew & Karen spent hours working with their dog to carry the ring basket down the isle, which he executed perfectly. Their catholic ceremony went off without a hitch, overlooking Rocky Mountain National Park in the background.
After the recessed down the isle and back to the ranch, the party began. Mannequin the Band kicked off the night with some live music; stellar as always. The dancing didn’t stop and neither did Stacy or I. We finished off the big day with a starlit photo back at the tent in which they spent the night in.
All in all, what a weekend. Andrew, Karen and their guests could not have been more easy to document. Their C Lazy U Ranch Wedding is one for the books. Enjoy their wedding photos.
