YMCA of the Rockies Summer Wedding | Colette + Charlie

Colette and Charlie met as medical students. Not long into their relationship, they found that their ease of conversation and their ability to just be silly with each other made them fall in love.​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
While these two may spend 99% of their time talking about their dog, Roo, they also love to cook new recipes together, go on long walks and catch up on their favorite TV episodes.​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
This wedding day proved why I love We, The Light so much and having both Bailey and I on a team together. The morning of their wedding, I woke up sick with a high fever. Bailey didn’t skip a beat to take over and photograph their wedding day.​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
Colette and Charlie said their vows overlooking Rocky Mountain National Park with their closest family and friends. After popping champagne and digging into some cake, they discovered one of RMNP’s most dreamy hikes.​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
Ending with a meal cooked by a private chef and stargazing, these two had a picture-perfect elopement day.​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
Thank you, you two, for going with the flow and trusting Bailey to step in last minute. It was an honor helping you two plan a day that felt just right.​​​​​​​​

We absolutely loved working with We The Light Photography for our micro-wedding/elopement and cannot recommend them enough!! Larissa put us at ease from our first meeting, and gave us suggestions for locations and ways to make our day more special. Due to some last minute changes, Bailey ended up shooting our wedding and she was incredible! Even though we had just met she made us both feel extremely comfortable and not awkward at all when taking photos. The photos (edited by Larissa) turned out absolutely incredible!! We have received so many compliments from family/friends and we are obsessed with them! Bailey somehow captured a shooting star in one of our photos??! unreal! Having worked with both Larissa and Bailey, I cannot recommend both of them more highly!!
