“Fall Pastels” Wedding at The Broadmoor

Nestled at the foothills of the Rocky Mountains, The Broadmoor in Colorado Springs is an icon of luxury and heritage. Established in 1918, this storied resort blends European elegance with Western charm, its grand pink-hued façade and Italian Renaissance-inspired architecture standing as a breathtaking backdrop against the autumnal splendor. With its pristine lake, manicured gardens, and sweeping mountain views, The Broadmoor provided the perfect canvas for an intimate yet grand October wedding—one that exuded warmth, refinement, and a deep sense of home.

The celebration unfolded in a palette of slate blue, dusty French blue, pine, smoke, and linen, with delicate hints of cognac lending an inviting depth to the design. The ceremony, framed by lush greenery and florals in a soft, untamed style, felt as if it had sprung organically from the mountain landscape. Guests looked on as deer nibbled at nearby shrubs while the bride and groom said “I do” – a truly Cinderalla experience!

At cocktail hour, the spirit of the mountains came alive as drink burros trotted in, delighting guests with their festively adorned baskets brimming with signature cocktails and local brews.

Inside, the reception space was transformed into an intimate, residential-inspired dreamscape, where candlelight flickered against bookshelves brimming with heirloom volumes, and plush lounge areas invited guests to sink into conversation. A mix of refined wood furniture and tartan-patterned textiles infused a touch of nostalgia, while layered lighting—petite lamps atop dining tables, golden uplighting, and clusters of robust candle installations—set an enchanting, cozy mood. Personalized place settings with rugged character, from hand-calligraphed menus to linen-bound name cards, gave each guest a sense of belonging.
