Sneak Peek at Laurie and Jessie's Wedding

We are thrilled to have wrapped up our 7th annual Wedding Pink. Despite an unexpected and unusual May snow storm it was a beautiful wedding. Here is a sneak peek of Laurie and Jessie's special day. 

A gigantic thank you to Ali & Garrett Photographers for their beautiful photographs.

Dress Shopping at The Bridal Collection

As most of you know Laurie and Jessie were recently in town to meet with vendors and plan their upcoming wedding. One of the stops they made was to pick out dresses at The Bridal Collection. We wanted to extend a huge thank you to them as they donated brand new dresses to both of the ladies. We all had a fun experience watching them try on and pick out their special dresses. Don't worry, we aren't spoiling the surprise. The dresses that they picked are not shown below.

Meet & Greet, Wednesday Feb 8

We are excited to be partnering with Resolute Brewing for a meet and greet with this year's Wedding Pink couple, Laurie and Jessie.  

We sincerely hope you will be able to stop in to say hi and have a drink. A portion of all drink sales benefit The Wedding Pink.  

Everyone is welcome. Hope to see you there!

Kendra Scott Gifts

We were so excited when Hilary from Kendra Scott dropped off these beautiful gifts for all of our Wedding Pink applicants.

Although we could only choose one winning couple we were honored that so many people took the time to apply for the wedding. They each received a beautiful pair of pink and gold earrings compliments of Kendra Scott.

Thank you Kendra Scott, Cherry Creek for your generosity!

Favorite Quote from the Flower Girl

We have to share this quote from The Wedding Pink 2016 flower girl.

She asked if “we can do it again?”  She plays wedding everyday.  The following is her description of the wedding…”we walk down the aisle, we listen to the man talk and then we eat cake and dance.”  

So cute!

We are in the process of putting the details together for next year's Wedding Pink. 

We are seeking people who are engaged or soon-to-be engaged and have been recently touched by breast cancer. Applicants can live in anywhere in the United States; however, the wedding will take place in Colorado. While most of the wedding is donated the couple is responsible for travel to Colorado at least a couple times if they don't live here.

More submission guidelines can be found here.

Lauren's Experience of being The Wedding Pink Bride

Lauren, The Wedding Pink 2016 bride

As I reminisce about our wedding, I have to remind myself that it was not a dream. Our flawless wedding was more than anything I could have ever imagined. It was perfect.

My Maid of Honor emailed me the link for The Wedding Pink. I submitted our story remembering that there were plenty of other deserving women. I was in disbelief when we found out that we were selected for the 2016 wedding. We were convinced that it was meant to be when we learned of our amazing wedding venue in Crested Butte.

My friends assumed that winning a wedding translated into a cookie-cutter wedding. Our amazing team of vendors allowed us to select all details and incorporate our personalities. It was an incredible experience to meet and connect with the vendors who donated their time and talent. It was humbling to hear the stories of how each vendor had been touched by cancer. All of the vendors went above all of our expectations. When we returned from our first planning trip in Crested Butte, we were in disbelief that our Pinterest board was going to be a reality at our wedding.

Matt and I had discussed a destination wedding. Our wedding in Crested Butte was more than anything I could have imagined. Crested Butte will always have a special place in our heart and we cannot wait to return. We thank The Wedding Pink for introducing us to a city that we would have never visited.

Thank you Cheryl, The Wedding Pink and our incredible vendors for our perfect day. Cheryl, there are no words to explain our gratitude. We will cherish the memories of our special day forever.
