Okay, so I am writing this in 2019 and post-dating it back to February of 2011 when I first started offering the intimate wedding package. Yes, for ten years I offered day-of coordinating and full-service wedding planning. I had a great time, but slowly values started to shift. I had my own intimate wedding of 22 people in 2007 and realized that there was a need: even working in the industry, it was had for vendors and venues to understand my vision. I designed the package with the coziness of spending valuable time with close family and friends, being surrounded by nature, and the ability to focus on marriage rather that the "hubbub" and busyness of large weddings.
Melissa and Bill were one of our my clients. We designed a first look at Sapphire Point Overlook with a ceremony in the living room of Ski Tip Lodge - a charming bed and breakfast in Keystone. They then celebrated at ski tip with a dinner in their private dining room. Ski Tip is one of my all-time favorite places: in the late 1800s, it was a stagecoach stop! It is a 10-room long with a 55-seat fine dining (4-course) restaurant. I know it well! I started my career in 1995 as an assistant to two wedding coordinators at Keystone Resort - Ski Tip Lodge is one of their properties. Their wedding was sweet and cozy with parents and Bills kids. Thank you for kicking off a wonderful service that hundreds of couples have utilized in making their small wedding visions come true!

About WendeeI've been planning weddings since 1995 when I moved to Colorado from Iowa. I cut my teeth at Keystone Resort in their wedding department, then then ventured on to planning corporate meetings. But, I kept helping friends and their friends with weddings starting my first full-service company in 2002 (yes - planned the big overwhelming ones). In 2012 with the birth of my son, values shifted and I decided to go small, intimate and meaningful. Please connect with me to make your dreamy, simple mountain wedding come true!
Behind the Scenes of a Micro-WeddingEver wonder what goes on behind-the-scenes of a micro-wedding day? Jaime L. Barba, one of our talented professional photographers, captured me at work ⬇️ from one of our May 2023 weddings in Boulder, Colorado.
