Gold Lake Event Center Wedding | Kathryn Kim Photography | Ward, Colorado Wedding Photographer | Ward Colorado Photographer

Anne and Sam’s Gold Lake Event Center Wedding was absolutely wonderful! This venue is a VRBO, and it was perfect for the vision that Anne and Sam had for their wedding. They wanted it to be centered around family, and Gold Lake Event Center provided a place where everyone could come and stay together. This venue is gorgeous, with beautiful wood cabins all over the property. It almost feels like a summer camp! The lake is so sparkly and beautiful, and combined with the epic mountain view, it was the perfect backdrop for the ceremony!

Anne and Sam decided to share a first look, and it was so precious. Sam’s face lit up when he saw his beautiful bride! Afterwards, we ventured and took some bride and groom photos around the property. I should mention there’s an incredible white teepee, and I had to include in some shots! Such incredible character, I love it!

After the ceremony everyone moved over to the lodge for some outdoor lawn games, and the reception was a mixture of outdoor and indoor events. There were a few touching toasts, great food, and socializing. Anne’s brother grilled some incredible kabobs for dinner! Everyone was super impressed with his skills, and also totally thrilled to be celebrating Anne and Sam!

Are you planning your Gold Lake Event Center wedding? Email or call me now, and let’s chat about wedding photography! I absolutely love this venue, and all the staff. It’s a wonderful wedding venue!

Enjoy my favorite photos of Anne and Sam!

Stephanie and Alejandro’s wedding was gorgeous, vibrant, and filled with so much joy! Their ceremony was held at Light of the World Roman Catholic Church, which was such a beautiful venue.

Red Rocks Wedding Venue | Trading Post at Red Rocks Amphitheater Wedding | Kathryn Kim Photography | Morrison Colorado Wedding

When Jennifer and Jon told me they were looking for the perfect Red Rocks Wedding Venue, I had to suggest the Trading Post at Red Rocks Amphitheater! This venue is beyond gorgeous, and has an incredible view of the Red Rocks! I am thrill that they decided to get married there!

Jennifer and I first connected, and she was pretty thrilled to find a fellow Georgian living out here in Colorado. It turns out that we grew up not too far away from each other in Georgia, It is really such a small world!

I have been to the Red Rocks Amphitheater for a few concerts, but had never actually shot at this venue before. It was absolutely beautiful. We had perfect dreamy wedding weather! My day began by photographing the ladies getting ready at the Trading Post, and then the guys showed up ready for groomsmen photos. Jennifer and Jon did a first look in front of the beautiful Red Rocks. This of course was a stunning backdrop. Their dogs are very important to them so of course they were included in the wedding, which is always fun! Jennifer and Jon had their reception at the Soiled Dove Underground in Lowry. The food was tasty and the dancing was plentiful!

Jennifer and Jon, I had such a great time photographing your wedding and getting to know you guys! I wish you the best of luck in your marriage!

If you are interested in having a Red Rocks Wedding Venue, you must check out the Red Rocks Trading Post! I would love to speak with you about being your wedding photographer at this venue, or any other! Email or call now and we will talk!
