Edgy & urban wedding inspiration at The Denver Athletic Club

The Denver Athletic Club and its rooftop deck has been a Colorado staple and served as the gorgeous and eclectic backdrop for this urban wedding inspiration. The ceremony had 180-degree views on the rooftop and the reception rocked all white lounge furniture to give it that Hollywood vibe. Don’t miss the stunning gown paired with a killer black leather jacket, the adorable Great Dane, the edgy letterpress invitations, and the fuchsia ‘Til Death neon light in the Bistro.

Caroline and Andy wanted a wedding that was uniquely theirs, with none of the fluff or traditions that were not meaningful to them. Instead, they opted to bring in things they love together. This included a “scotch blessing” before dinner for everyone with custom shot glasses. They even carefully curated an intimate wedding party pre-wedding cocktail hour to ease everyone’s pre-wedding stressors.

We really wanted a casual, foodie, boozy wedding. We wanted good food and for our guests to have a chill but fun time. My dad officiated our wedding which was so incredibly special. Both of our families are super supportive and embraced our not quite traditional queer wedding. My sister in-law hand made our rings for us and we had a ring warming ceremony. Each of the guests passed the rings around and put their hopes and wishes for us into them.

The concept of this lovely Denver wedding inspiration was a little 420 mixed in with loads of greenery, tons of glass detail, and a super pared down color palette (lots of green and white with just a bit of purple). It’s elegant, clean, and channels a sleek winter wedding. There’s cannabis included in the bride’s hair and florals as well as a bud-bar, which is getting popular in states where it’s legal, like there in Colorado.

Don’t miss the epic clock tower shots, the chic glass apothecary jars (put candy, treats, favors in there as you like!), and the bedazzled silvery cake…

Sheannette and Paul met when she bought a mid-century desk from him via Craigslist! It was basically love at first sight after that. For their chic urban elopement in Denver, they rode around town in a limo to visit three different locations and create some gorgeous shots with their two children. Oh, and while they were there? They ran into a super famous rock star just chilling with his dogs. Let’s see the whole stunning display at this self-officiating urban elopement…
