SAN SOPHIA TELLURIDE WEDDING

BROOKE WERNER + CHAD KNAUS

Brooke and Chad had the most intimate of weddings atop San Sophia Overlook in Telluride, Colorado this past Fall.  We are always in awe of the majestic Rocky Mountains.  The views, sunsets and feeling of the mountains is just pure soulful beauty.  When you have the former MISS VERMONT and MISS SPRINT CUP girl as the bride and a head NASCAR crew chief at Hendrik MotorSports for JIMMIE JOHNSON (who was the best man). Their very intimate destination union was just so sweet and of course the amazing team at SOIREE TELLURIDE made everything just flawless.  It was the perfect display of who they are as a couple and showed their love for one another in a very special way. We love seeing how couple’s want to express their love for one another as well as create ambiance with decor that expresses who they are.  Some of the perfect details of their wedding were the gift that Brooke’s  mom and sister gave her, which was their grandmother’s embroidered handkerchief that they gave here while she put on her wedding dress.  She then affixed it to the inside of her gown for something old and blue.  For their wedding, they also had a special graphic design made that was engraved on the locket necklace Chad gave Brooke as well as on all the details of the wedding, from the napkins, programs, the charlotte limousine service and even stickers. Their first look was in a wooded patch before we headed to the overlook for their beautiful sunset ceremony.  During the ceremony, they had the guests perform a ring warming ceremony where they passed around their wedding rings and the guest held and blessed them with love and wished before they put them on their fingers for eternity. We have been witness to some weddings where Tree Cooper has officiated and we just have to say how perfect his ceremonies are as they are from the heart and soul and tailored to each couple.  It is always inspirational. They even had a lavender toss from the guests during their recessional. It concluded with a fun second line that lead the guests to the gondola’s then down the mountaineering the most epic Colorado sunset to the dining portion of the evening at the ever so lovely La Marmotte.   The bohemian luxe wedding had the perfect blend of details to make the ambiance so romanic. New Leaf Telluride made sure the details were impeccable. Chad surprised Brooke with a horse drawn carriage that escorted them while the guests had sparklers and marched to Arroyo for a night full of dancing and great music by The Salamanders that come in from Utah for their reception.  What a wonderful time we had documenting their wedding day.  They are the loveliest people and it was a joy to see them celebrate their love with their friends and family.  Cheers to a lifetime and love and happiness Brooke and Chad.
