I am a wedding and elopement photographer based out of Northern Colorado and Western Washington. In my free time I hike, eat lots of food and play with cat & dog. I find photography to be an amazing creative outlet and love using it as a way to connect with some amazing people.

Awarded Best of Zola
From the very beginning of booking, Ashley had amazing communication and made sure we felt confident and comfortable even being from out of state. The day of our wedding she and Nate arrived on time and got right to work. Not only is she an amazing photographer but she helped make our day run so smoothly from helping sew a bridesmaids dress, to assisting in our first touch, to even helping cleanup at the end of the night. Our photos are my absolute favorite part of our wedding and something I will cherish forever. They truly make you feel like you’re right back in the day. Booking Ashley was the best choice we could have made for our wedding, and even two months later we still have guests raving about her and Nate. Thank you SO much Ashley!!

Hall & Axsom specializes in elevated floral design, creating curated arrangements and installations that bring beauty, personality, and intention to every celebration. From custom bouquets and ceremony florals to statement installations and reception details, each design is thoughtfully created to reflect the couple’s unique vision. We also offer full and partial wedding coordination and curated décor, bringing the creative and logistical details together seamlessly. Being chosen to bring a couples ideas to life is an honor and one that brings us so much joy.

I had the pleasure of working with these two ladies for my wedding, and overall, I truly believe they are wonderful people to work with. They have great style and genuinely want to do the very best for their clients! When I first met with them during the beginning stages of planning, they were willing to meet with me in person to discuss the vision I had for my wedding. They were excited and eager to hear my ideas while also bringing ideas of their own, which I really appreciated. As a bride, I did find myself wanting a little more communication throughout the planning process. As my wedding day got closer, my anxiety increased, and I personally would have appreciated more updates and communication along the way. I don’t mean that negatively—it was simply something that would have helped me feel more comfortable and confident. I shared my Pinterest board and vision with them, and I believe they brought several of my ideas to life beautifully. I did found myself wanting some different details at the reception that i thought we discussed, although I understand this may have been influenced by my budget and what I was able to afford. Overall, I received so many compliments from our guests about how beautiful everything looked. I especially loved the florals they created for my bouquet. I honestly wish I could have afforded to incorporate more of those same flowers throughout the reception because they were absolutely beautiful! They created my bouquet and my family’s boutonnieres for our elopement ceremony in Moab, Utah, and they were gorgeous. They even helped me figure out how to travel with the flowers for 6–7 hours, which I really appreciated. They also provided eucalyptus leaves throughout our wedding reception in Akron. I have attached pictures from both events. One thing I would recommend discussing ahead of time is availability on the actual wedding day. These ladies took on my wedding as well as another wedding that same weekend and had already committed to being present at the other wedding. They were still able to organize the florals and decorations for my wedding, which I greatly appreciated, but they were not able to be at my reception. I knew and agreed to this ahead of time, so it was not unexpected; however, there were a few things I feel may have gone more smoothly if they had been able to be there personally. There was also a lot happening for them that weekend, and I am genuinely grateful they were still able to help with so many aspects of our wedding. I loved how excited and invested they were in making our day special. One area that was difficult for me was cleanup the following day. We were asked to organize and separate the different pieces that belonged to them, but I found the process confusing, which added stress during an already emotional and exhausting time. Overall, I would absolutely recommend working with these wonderful ladies! My biggest advice for future brides would be to communicate exactly what you envision, ask questions, and don’t be afraid to share your feelings or concerns throughout the planning process. I would also recommend discussing pricing in detail and making sure you understand the cost of everything you want included, as wedding expenses can add up very quickly. Despite some of the challenges, I truly appreciated their creativity, excitement, and willingness to help make our wedding days special. I am thankful for the beautiful florals and decorations they provided.

The Platte River Fort is an absolutely beautiful venue! We had our wedding there and I wouldn’t have wanted to get married anywhere else. We coordinated with Cindy and she was beyond helpful helping us book and getting everything ready for our big day. The only reason I wouldn’t give this place 5 stars is all of the hidden fees that were not mentioned or included in the package we booked. Long story short, you will all of a sudden find yourself paying them hourly after you have paid for a whole package and then some. The owners and management need to be more clear on every detail. And of course as many places and events are, the alcohol and bartenders are triple the amount. It would’ve been cheaper to hire a third party bartending vendor to come serve.

Kate’s Crazy Cakes 
Rating: 5.0 (3 reviews)
  • Cakes & desserts
  • Starts at $700
  • Serves Amherst, CO

Hi! I’m Kate—founder, designer, baker, and buttercream enthusiast behind Kate’s Crazy Cakes. What started as a childhood obsession with sweets and Duff Goldmans Ace of Cakes quickly turned into a full-blown passion, and eventually a thriving business I officially launched in 2016! Based in Greeley, Colorado, I specialize in custom wedding cakes that are equal parts delicious and artistic. Whether you’re dreaming of a modern, elegant design or something bold and offbeat, I love creating one-of-a-kind cakes that reflect your love story. Let’s make something beautiful and unique together. Your dream cake is just a message away.

Kate's Crazy Cakes was a shining light during our wedding planning process. Kate communicated like no one else we worked with—she replied quickly, kept things concise, and somehow answered our questions before we even asked them. The cake itself was incredible; every layer tasted as good as it looked, and my husband and I still talk about how delicious it was. The presentation was absolutely stunning and truly brought my vision to life. Kate is a creative master who cares about her work, and we'd recommend her to any couple looking for a dessert that tastes as good as it looks. Five stars, hands down.

Eventfully Unique

  • Planner

  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves Amherst, CO

Creative, elegant, event design and everyday planning. As a devoted wife, mother and follower of Jesus Christ, Amie Ingram is bringing a unique blend of experiences, compassion, and genuine care into the lives of everyone she touches. It's in the bonds that are created, where you will find the true value of Eventfully Unique.

As a wedding photographer, I've worked with a lot of wedding planners over the years, so I had pretty high expectations when it came to planning my own wedding. Amie exceeded every single one of them. From the very beginning, she was so much more than a planner. She was at every meeting with our venue, asked questions I never would've thought to ask, and advocated for us more than once to make sure everything turned out exactly how we wanted. A few months before our wedding, my husband unexpectedly lost his job. Wedding planning became the last thing on our minds, and honestly, it was a really difficult season. Amie showed us so much grace during that time. She checked in on us, helped carry the mental load, and made sure things kept moving when we just didn't have the capacity. I'll never forget that. At our rehearsal, she somehow kept our huge group organized while still making everyone feel relaxed. Then she stayed to help set up our reception, including all of our tables, décor, and hundreds of florals, which took way longer than any of us expected. She never once acted like it was too much. On the wedding day, I honestly don't know how she did it, but she seemed to be everywhere at once. She kept everything on schedule without ever making us feel rushed or stressed. I've worked with planners who keep a timeline by barking orders all day, but Amie has this incredible ability to lead with kindness. Everyone listened to her because they genuinely wanted to. She even finished little projects I'd completely forgotten about that morning, like tying tags onto every single bud vase. I don't even know when she found the time. One of the things I'm most grateful for was how protective she was of me before the ceremony. I desperately needed a few quiet moments alone, and she made sure no one interrupted me or came in asking questions. That gift of peace is something I'll always remember. She was amazing with all of the kids in our wedding, somehow getting everyone where they needed to be at exactly the right time, and she stayed until everything was cleaned up at the end of the night. I truly cannot imagine our wedding without Amie. She made the entire experience a million times better, not just because everything ran smoothly, but because she genuinely cared about us as people. If you're considering hiring Eventfully Unique, do it. As someone who's spent years working alongside wedding planners, I can honestly say Amie is one of the very best in the industry. She is worth every penny, and I would choose her again in a heartbeat. (Plus, I will be recommending her to all of my future brides!)

From our first walkthrough, Kimberly from Mountain View Menagerie was so helpful in answering all of our questions and making us feel confident in our decision to work with them. She understood what we wanted for our wedding day and helped us plan every detail. The venue itself is stunning with both indoor and outdoor spaces that gave us so many options for our ceremony and reception. One of our favorite touches was their horse trailer bar - it was so beautiful and became a real conversation starter with our guests. We felt taken care of from start to finish and would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a special place to get married.
