Milatary wedding

A cozy, romantic ride.

A ittle bit of "Aviator Attitude"!!!!

What do you get when you have a groom and five groomsmen who are all Air Force pilots? A wonderful, fun wedding and reception.

This wedding took place in the Pinnacle Club, 38 floors above Denver. This property is the only one of it's kind in the Denver area. You have almost a 360 degree view of Denver and the Rocky Mountains. You can see from Pikes Peak to Longs Peak.

We started this wedding at sunset so the guests enjoyed the sunset and the lights of Denver.

This venue books up quickly. It's operated by the Grand Hyatt in Downtown Denver. You'll be able to see more pictures from this wedding, in the next couple of weeks at www.weddingsbytanya.com.

Spectacular Colorado Wedding Mountain Venue

I had the opportunity to experience what brides, who do Colorado Weddings in Beaver Creek can experience.

We stayed one night at the Park Hyatt. During this stay, we enjoyed a wonderful massage in the Allegria Spa, had dinner and breakfast in 8100 - The brand new Mountain Side Bar and Grill, slept in the most comfortable room, and had a spectacular view of the center of the Village of Beaver Creek and the mountains.

The Park Hyatt is a ski-in, ski-out property, however, they are year around. They have done outstanding renovations, building out the patio, changing the Antler Bar (which used to be in the lobby area) to the 8100 Mountainside Bar and Grill. The plus side of this, is it stays open much longer!

The patio, located at the foot of the mountain, is a perfect place for your wedding ceremony and cocktails before going inside for your mouth-watering reception dinner.

Chef Reese Hay, Chef de Cuisine of 8100 Mountainside Bar & Grill, is one of the most talented chefs I've had the opportunity to meet and taste what he can do! Because of his work, the Park Hyatt was listed in the Esquire Magazine as one of the MUST DINE IN restaurants in the country! Another big plus for this Chef is that he utilizes as much local fresh produce and ingredients, including meats etc. as possible. I also must add that the outstanding staff in 8100 as in all the hotel, is friendly and eager to do everything to make your stay pleasant and memorable.

Whether you are planning an elegant wedding for 100 or a small, casual wedding for 20, check out the Park Hyatt. Peach Duty, the Senior Catering Sales Manager, will do everything to make your stay special for you and your guests. You can see the property at www.parkhyattbeavercreek.com, or contact Peach at peach.duty@hyatt.com 970-827-6522, or you can contact me at tanya@weddingsbytanya.com 303-779-0395 for more information. www.weddingsbytanya.com .
This would also be the perfect resort for a Planned Elopement.

Luxury Weddings -Destination Colorado

I just returned from an overnight visit to the Vail/Beaver Creek, Leadville, CO areas.
If you are considering Colorado either as a home or destination wedding I'd like to share three venues that I visited.

Vail is the home of a brand new hotel, the Arrabelle at Vail Square. If you've ever traveled to the south of Germany, in the Bravarian area, you'll swear you are there again. This hotel is a village within the village of Vail.

If you want luxury, there's no place like the Arrabeelle. You are met at your car by the Bell Captain, taken to the front desk, where you are met by your own personal butler (trained in the English manner), escorted to your room, where your butler will do everything from putting your clothes away, ironing out the wrinkles to bring you coffee in bed in the morning.

I could go on and on about this fantastic venue, but want to leave some surprises for those of you who decide to visit there. I will say they have a beautiful ballroom that can easily hold 180 guests for a sit down dinner as well as an outdoor area for weddings.

Whether you are considering a memorable wedding or elopement, this is the place! Let me know and I'll be happy to assist with your planning. www.weddingsbytanya.com.

Nestled in Avon, just before you start up the mountain to Beaver Creek is the brand new Westin Riverfront. If you are looking for a Colorado feel, this is a venue certainly to be considered. They are one of the new "green" hotels, which includes bamboo robes! They have a wonderful, warm feel and would certainly welcome the larger weddings in the area. Also being close by the mountains of Beaver Creek, a beautiful spot for elopements.

If you are a romantic at heart and love the idea of a Victorian Wedding, complete with costumes, then consider the Delaware Hotel, founded in 1886. Leadville, for those history buffs, is the initial home of "Molly Brown". While the elevation of over 10,000 feet may be a consideration, there are so many things to do here from hiking, to biking, to fishing and you are only about 45 minute drive from Vail. This is truly a wonderful little Victorian town that has maintained the feel of the west. This hotel can do a sitdown dinner for 45 guests, has truly maintained it's feel of days past. Great for a small wedding or elopement. Each hotel room is different and very comfortable.

Another "hidden Jewel" in Vail is the Antler's. This facility is all condos, for comfort, is affordable, and has everything from one bedroom to four bedroom condos. Located on the creek and right across from the Vail mountain, this is the place for anyone who wants to experience Vail, but may be on more of a budget. Each room is equiped with a kitchen so you can fix your own meals, but are close enough to walk into Vail should you decide to enjoy the fine dining you can find in the village.

The Antler's also has room for ceremonies and weddings and ample opportunities for pictures in their beautiful courtyard with a wonderful waterfall flowing around two elk. Do check out this venue for your wedding or elopement.

As with any of these venues, I'm available to assist you plan your weddings. Just contact me through www.weddingsbytanya.com or tanya@weddingsbytanya.com. Let's create a wedding you and your guests will long remember! (I'm always happy to take calls after hours and week-ends to fit YOUR schedule.)
