Their next event is coming up on June 14-15: Elizabeth Dye {portland, or designer features thoughtful details and unique trim}

Portland based designer Elizabeth Dye’s collection of soft, feminine gowns are the essence of craftsmanship. All of the gowns are produced locally to Portland and feature thoughtful details and unique trims. As a small designer, Dye has been very selective about where her gowns can be found and Anna Be is so thrilled to be chosen for her Denver Debut. Don’t miss your chance to play with these romantic beguiling beauties.

It all started with a song…

Some consider me an old soul; totally obsessed with old Hollywood, black and white movies and timeless music; while others know me as a sometimes quirky but full time romantic. And then, back in 1950, many years before I was born, a song (one of my favorites) was recorded by the late great Nat King Cole (also one of my favorites) that “married” two of my favorite things: classic music and romance.

“Orange colored, purple striped, pretty green polka-dot sky”…my color inspiration for the style shoot! How serendipitous is that? My color scheme is the lyrics to the song! So there you have it, orange, purple and green.

“One look and I yelled timber” (more lyrics). This line set the stage for the location. This shoot had to take place where there was an abundance of trees and what better place than in the mountains?

I wanted to capture the simplicity of the song and allow the colors to be the main focus, so I opted for a no-fuss picnic wedding.

A laid back dessert table made the “reception” even sweeter.

Who needs a wedding cake when you have cupcakes topped with orange slices…need I say more?

What is a reception without favors, right? Homemade orange marmalade in mini glass jars tied with “orange”, “purple striped” and “green polka-dot” ribbon. There are those lyrics again!

Zen the Pug stood in for his best friend as the best man.

A musically inspired shoot, called for a guitar of course. Our groom is a musician, so this tied in nicely.

COUTUREcolorado STYLE for a cause events series is our way of giving back to our community. Each event has a style element to it along with a worthwhile cause. Our first event at the ultra hip Denver boutique, Goldyn, was a huge hit that was sold out in just 48 hours.

The dichotomy of sexy and strong, unexpected fabric selections, and elegant tailoring result in a look that is uniquely Houghton. Com surprise yourself with these bridal gowns.
