Valerie & Josh| Garden of The Gods Club Wedding
You know what they say about Colorado weather, if you don’t like it; just wait five minutes because it will change. Well, it changed several times for Valerie and Josh’s Spring wedding but, isn’t that how it is during Spring here in the Rocky Mountains. With always breathtaking views at the Garden of the Gods Club, some rain, sleet, snow, and sun at just the right times too, that would sum up the weather at the Morse wedding but, these two and their wonderful family and friends always had smiles and great spirit!
The wonderful Garden of the Gods Club referred this beautiful couple to me but, when they came in I also found out that Josh was a teacher and taught one my brides ( whom I love) Angela. Throughout the wedding day and the toasts I came to find out what a special teacher Josh is. He brings extra food to his class for kids who can’t afford lunch. I just wanted to put a shout out to him for going that extra mile because there are so many kids that need teachers like that.
Back to their wedding! Like I said, we had lots of weather changes. It was a bit rainy when I got there and doing the guys photos we had some sprinkles come down on us but, as we got to the girls the sun came out….and then the rain- sun showers! It was very pretty though! They laughed and smiled the whole time. It was overcast during almost the whole ceremony until right before the kiss and then just a few beams of sun came out on the ceremony. It was a beautiful site!
It began to snow during the reception but, that is okay because everyone was inside dancing, singing and having the time of their lives. Valerie’s dad told me she was determined to move to Colorado since she was a little girl. It was reiterated during the speeches and toasts. She was going to move here and marry a mountain man! She is obviously a girl who goes after what she wants and gets it.
I am so happy for both of you. You had a wonderful wedding and it was beautiful. The snow topped Pikes Peak is such a gorgeous backdrop for your wedding vows at Garden of the Gods Club in Colorado Springs, CO. And like your dad told me “you have to have a story.” And you guys surely do.
