Capturing the romance and details of your special day forever!

Things to consider when choosing your bridesmaids and groomsmen: Resist the urge to ask them immediately, consider putting some thought and planning into your selection. The best attendant is a supportive friend who has the time and money to help you plan your big day. Additionally, consider whether or not the friends you want to include know each other and get along, you do not need the added stress of attendants conflicts on your wedding day. Be sure to select family members and friends with whom you want to share your special time, and not those you feel obligated to ask. And remember, there are plenty of jobs to go around, so you don?t need to have everyone you know stand with you.

Do you have family pride? If so, consider displaying your parents' and grandparents' wedding photos on the entry table or the cake table, creating a sense of history at your wedding and honoring them at the same time. You could hang the photos by wooden clothes pins, with small magnets on magnetic rope, or simply place them in open mason jars - the possibilities are endless!

3/7/11:
I recommend you also have someone videotape your wedding, photography only takes you so far. Videos let you hear the voice tremble as you say your vows, really listen to the reading you chose specially, catch all the jokes in the best man's toast and watch your friends tear it up on the dance floor. A wallet friendly option is to hire a photographer who has the capabilities and equipment you may save money by purchasing a combined package including both still photography and videography.

Last week I talked about finding your style, well if you are decided that 'natural' was an element that you would like to use in your Colorado wedding, try incorporating natural elements into your wedding! For example, consider using river rocks as paperweights. Place them on guest chairs to hold down ceremony programs during an outdoor wedding. You could even name the tables after 14ers your have hiked or pair your reception food with some good ole Colorado beers. Also consider using wildflowers, pinecones, and Aspens in your decor. Additionally, consider having your guests sign a coffee table book filled with stunning Colorado photography or use a beautiful landscape photograph on your save-the-dates, invitations, or programs.

2/21/11:
The first step in planning your wedding is finding your style. Sit down with your fiancee and pick two words that you would your guests to use to describe your wedding! Try looking at your house, wardrobe, art, car, etc. for words that describe you are individuals and a couple? (For example: Vintage, streamlined, old world, romantic, funky, vibrant, or modern) Then narrow it down and choose what elements of your style and personality that you would like to use in your wedding. Once you decide your style, you will want to stay consistent with it and tell all your vendors, friends, and family what your wedding style is. This will really help make your special day a true reflection of the two of you!

One way to add impact and appeal to your reception with small touches like wrapping your chairs in chiffon or scattering mismatched silver candlesticks around the room to create a little romance.

2/7/11:
One way to get used to being the center of attention and having a camera pointed at you all day is to take advantage of your complimentary engagement session! One of the great things about most wedding photography collections today is that most come with a complimentary engagement session. Be sure to take advantage of this! It's not only a great way to get to know your photographer, but it is good practice for your wedding day - it will help you feel much more natural in front of a camera.

Marriage is a lifetime of compromise - your photography should not be one of them. Your photos are the only tangible item from your wedding day that will help you relive the happiness and joy felt on that special day. Therefore, you should book the best photographer you can afford! When the day is over your guests won't remember the food, your flowers will begin to wilt, but you should be confident that you have a full collection of heirloom photographs that will be passed down generations to come.

1/24/11:
Be sure to have a wedding emergency kit handy with bobby pins, a sewing kit, safety pins, clear nail polish, extra hose, bandages, aspirin, antacids, tissues, and anything else you think you might need. Even better, ask a bridesmaid to do this for you.

2/17/11:
Whether your marrying in or out-of-state, try incorporating a bit of regional charm into your day.  Showing off your hometown pride is a perfect way to add a unique twist to your wedding day.  Consider a musical homage, like playing 3 songs back to back, a special dessert with the recipe, or a photo booth with the state's most famous landmark as the backdrop.

1/10/11:
To save money on wedding favors consider giving your guests inexpensive favor bags or boxes filled with some flower seeds, your favorite tea/coffee, home-made cookies, home-made or bulk small candles in your one of your wedding colors, or candy. Then wrap them up, decorate them, and tie them ...with a ribbon to match the colors of your wedding and include a note of thanks.

There are many people to choose from when it comes to selecting your wedding photographer, especially in this digital age. However, finding the right photographer is essential! There are over 2,000 photographers just in the state of Colorado and each of their styles is just as unique as they are! I recommend that you meet in person with as many photographers as you can, at least 5 (.0025% of them). Then carefully select the one whose photography resonates with you and whose personality fuses with you. Your wedding photography is one of the only tangible things that will help you relive those amazing moments forever.

If you love the fondant look, but do not so much love the price or taste.... ask your baker if she can do a faux fondant look with buttercream. A skilled cake decorator can get icing as smooth as fondant and add on real fondant accents such as bows, ribbons, borders, etc. for a fantastic look ...for less money and better taste.

In the early stages of planning your wedding consider starting a wedding notebook or accordion file to organize all your wedding notes. Be sure to keep price quotes, receipts, brochures, and contracts in a safe place. Also, when speaking with wedding vendors do not be afraid to ask questions and don't forget to read the fine print!

11/01/10:
To save money on decorating your ceremony location book a venue that is already decorated - consider having your ceremony at The Broadmoor near Christmas - they have tons of beautiful lights up for about 3 months every year! Many churches are also ornately decorated for the holiday season with large displays of flowers.

10/25/10:
To save money and have a greener wedding try using flowers and food that is in season. Also consider borrowing or renting everything that you can, rather than buying new. (Think about borrowing some family jewelry or a friend's veil). Lastly, consider a venue with a ceremony space, reception space, and guest rooms all at the same facility or within walking distance of one another.

10/18/10:
One of the great things about an outdoor wedding is that you'll get to bring in every aspect of design and function yourself - which means you'll get to create exactly what you want from the ground up! Adding your own personal elements to your d?cor is not only fun, but also will make your wedding stand out!

10/11/10:
Destination weddings can be great for a number of reasons? It is easier to relax before the wedding when you are already at your honeymoon location, additionally a shorter guest list makes for a cheaper and more intimate celebration, plus you can start your honeymoon immediately after your wedding!

10/05/10:
To save money on your wedding site try booking off-season or at odd hours or on days that are not as popular. Choosing to wed on a Friday or Sunday and opting for something less formal, like a dessert reception can really cut back on your costs. Lastly, consider hosting your wedding and reception off the beaten path. Rural locations usually cost much less than those in a big city!

9/20/10:
In the early stages of planning rank the aspects of your wedding that are most important to you (and your fiancee), then analyze the top 5 and write a realistic budget leaving enough cushion to support your top priorities. Then begin researching and booking your top priorities. Also, do not forget ...to let the people helping you know what your top priorities are, like your friends and family.

"We have worked with Sheena on two occasions and her pictures have brought us a huge amount of joy. For our engagement, Sheena suggested we go up to Garden of the Gods, and the resulting photographs perfectly portrayed our love of nature and each other. Our wedding photographs were also amazing; Sheena captured all of our emotions without us even knowing she was there! We can't wait to work with Sheena again!"

~Ruth Summers & Yong Yi

"The photographs are beautiful! Sheena really listened to what was important to us and captured the emotions of our wedding day. We were especially impressed by the attention to detail and the photographic memories of the small, yet important, details of our wedding. Every time we look at our photos we can feel the energy of and relive our wedding day.
Thanks so much for capturing these moments for us!"
~Carolynn & Elias Brown

"I had maternity and newborn photos taken by Sheena and I loved them! The maternity photos portrayed the joyful anticipation my husband and I felt in a touching and honest way, and the newborn photos captured the innocent beauty of my baby girl perfectly.
I can't wait to schedule our family photos!"
~The Tebbe Family

"We both just wanted to thank you so much for our last minute photo shoot. You did an amazing job on one of the coldest days of the year. All your ideas were so unique. You made us both feel so comfortable in front of the camera. You made that day really special for us especially since Tim was leaving for Iraq. You came through on such short notice for us and pulled off the best photos, you truly are talented that will be a day we never forget."
~Matty & Tim
