A Beautiful Ceremony at the Willow Ridge Manor
On a cold, snowy October evening at the Willow Ridge Manor in Morrison, Colorado, Paul and Adrienne became husband and wife. Although the ceremony had been scheduled to be outside, the wedding ended up being just perfect inside. With snow falling in the background, Father Marty of Rent A Priest guided them through their ceremony while staying off to the side of the wedding party, allowing this to be a truly intimate wedding.
With the snow, the red and white colors and the hot chocolate, Paul and Adrienne’s wedding almost looks like a Christmas wedding. Adrienne’s dress was perfect, thanks to her seamstress Christine of CH Studios Custom Clothier, and Girls and Curls (who have one of the most creative wedding vendor names that I have seen, by the way) did an impeccable job with her hair and makeup.
A Great Reception with Mashed Potatoes, Peas and Gravy
After their ceremony was completed, the guests moved into the parlor for drinks and mingling so that the staff of Lifestyles Catering could setup the dining area. It was a last minute idea, but I set up a camera to capture video of everyone setting up the dining area and turned it into a time lapse video that only lasts a few seconds. It is one of my favorite shots in their video and Adrienne said that she really loved that particular part as well.
After the dinner had been eaten and toasts had been made, Paul and Adrienne made their way to their gorgeous wedding cake that was expertly created by Das Meyer Pastry. As a special gift to the other couples at the wedding, an anniversary dance was held to celebrate the long lasting marriages of some of Paul and Adrienne’s family and friends. In a special moment Gregory, the owner of Willow Ridge Manor presented the couple with a special wedding cake of mashed potatoes and butter, peas and a side of gravy that represented a special story that Paul and Adrienne shared.
Fred, of Maestro Mobile Music Productions, did an amazing job with the sound and music. With his help, the dance floor was hoppin’ the entire night! Everyone seemed to have a tremendous time, especially the bride and groom who seemed just smitten with each other all night long. Traci and Nic Turchin of Real Photography did an outstanding job of capturing the day with still pictures. Willow Ridge Manor was beautifully decorated thanks to the florists, Hillside Consultants, Inc., who also created an enormous but beautiful bouquet for Adrienne and other wonderful floral arrangements for the bridal party.
A Surprise on Paul and Adrienne’s Wedding Video
As a little something extra, Adrienne came to me wanting to surprise Paul by singing a song and including it on the wedding video. She has an amazing voice and we were able to record it well enough so that I could then mix it with a song. It came out better than I could have imagined. She was thrilled with it and Paul was very surprised when it came up while we were watching their wedding video for the first time. Paul had initially not wanted a wedding videographer, but was convinced otherwise by his brother. After he watched the video for the first time he said that he was really glad that they got a video after all.
I was truly grateful to be a part of such a happy couples amazing wedding and create a video that would save their memories for ever. Here’s what Paul and Adrienne had to say about their wedding video from Denver Wedding Films™:
“Thank you thank you thank you for capturing our wedding on film and for being so (dang) talented. The DVD is INCREDIBLE.
I keep watching it and I bawl every time! Tye – you’re amazing!”
-Adrienne
Tye, what an amazing job! After getting Adrienne’s hair and makeup finished, my part of the wedding was done yet after watching your film, I felt I was there through the whole thing…you even got me a little teary (trust me, I never cry). Thank you for sharing such a wonderful film…I’m sure we’ll work together again soon!

Tye,
Truly that is a remarkable video. Adrienne had commented that she felt beautiful and was delighted to find she looked as good as she felt when reviewing the video. I couldn’t agree more. Sometimes I amaze myself when a dress comes out that good. Everyone looked so well presented and happy. Congrats to all.

Just wanted to stop by and check out the website to see what was cookin and I realized I never commented on our own video!
I am not sure who Tom is (commented above) but he is absolutely right – our highlight video is incredibly romantic, personal and poignant. I can tell just how many hours you put into it and I can’t thank you enough.
I am so glad that Christine (seamstress) and Rachael (hair and makeup) loved it too. They made me look incredible.
The whole journey of planning the wedding, executing the wedding and then reliving it via our DVD has been invaluable. As I told you the other day – we see something new every time we watch it. We felt incredible that day and watching our DVD just shows us how incredible it was!
Even though this is your business and thus you are paid a fee for your service, I have to tell you that the talent, vision, dedication and perfection that you deliver surpasses any dollar amount.
2009, as you know, was an incredibly rough year for Paul and I. We were hit with every stumbling block imaginable and we are impressed we survived. We call 2009 “The worst year ever with one perfect day.” Thanks to you we get to relive that one perfect day over and over as if it just happened.
I know I said it before, but THANK YOU. Seriously. It can’t be said enough.
With gratitude,
Adrienne Chagas
