Great Day For A Wedding

This past Saturday, we hosted yet another wedding here at The Boulder Country Club.  And despite the heat, it was a  perfect day for an outdoor ceremony!  The guests came inside to quite the treat, a bridal punch that was poured through an ice luge in the couples ice sculpture.  Check out just some of the photos below!

Our Wedding Weekend

This past weekend, we had not just one, but two weddings at The Boulder Country Club!  Each one of them was a blast and below are just some of the great pictures that we captured from the weekend.

To see more of the gorgeous pictures that were taken at both weddings, please check out our Pinterest page or our Weddings Facebook page!


Creative Table Number Ideas

Getting creative and personalizing your wedding is one of the many things we absolutely love to see here at The Boulder Country Club!  Table numbers are just one more way that you can add your personal touch to your wedding reception.  Below I have put together some fun table number ideas that would be cute for your wedding.

At one of our past weddings this summer, the bride put together table numbers with a photo of her and the groom at the age that corresponded with the table number. 

Another cute idea is having the table numbers on candles.  You can combine your centerpiece nd table number, which is a great way to cut costs as well!

Any item at your wedding should tie into your theme.  This is a fun idea for a travel or vintage themed wedding.

Below is another idea from a wedding we had last year here at the club.  They definitely kept to theme with their table numbers and the place cards/gifts that told their guests where they would be sitting.

 

There are countless ways to make your table numbers!  But no matter what you do, keep them unique to your wedding..even table numbers can be something that a guest walks away remembering.


More Photos From Our First Wedding Of The Season

A couple of weeks ago, we hosted our first wedding of the season!  It was such a fun wedding and I was able to capture some great images from the event to post on our blog for you all to enjoy.  Below are some more gorgeous photos taken by Jenae Lopez, the photographer that Tanner and Tracy picked to document their special day. 

A big thank you to Jenae Lopez for these beautiful photos and to Tracy and Tanner for hosting their wedding here at The Boulder Country Club.


Bridal Party Gift Ideas

Your maid of honor and bridesmaids have been assisting you through out the entire wedding planning process, helping you with all the small details and tasks that were assigned to them.  A nice way to say a heartfelt thank you like a personalized gift for each of them. 

When my sister got married, she gave each of us a tote bag with our names on them.  She gave us our bags at the rehearsal dinner and inside was the jewelry that we would wear on the wedding day, some other little goodies and a nice thank you note for all we did to help her prepare for the wedding.  It was such a nice gift and I can’t tell you how useful that bag is in my everyday life!

These wine glasses are such a cute gift to give to your bridesmaids.  You can have their names added to the glasses so they each have their own unique one.  For your flower girl?  A small glass with their name on it and drawing of their dress!

If you are experienced with Do It Yourself projects, you can pick up some wooden picture frames and put your bridesmaid’s names on their individual frame.  If not, you can always custom order a gift like this.  Make sure to include a special picture of you and your bridesmaid, maybe a picture from when you two were growing up together, an exciting vacation or another memorable time that you shared.

Including a personalized note or letter with your gift is a great idea.  Thank your bridesmaids for all their hard work in making sure that your wedding day was truly memorable.  They all took the time to be there for you on your special day and this is a great way to put into words how much that you appreciate them.  Trust me, it will be something that each of them cherish for a lifetime.

Beyond The Wedding Cake

As time goes on, traditions are changing.  More and more, 4-tiered wedding cake is becoming a thing of the past.  This is not saying that wedding cakes are being forgotten all together, but other dessert options are becoming wildly more popular.

One trend on the rise is having cupcakes at your wedding.  Here at The Boulder Country Club, we saw plenty of cupcake displays at our weddings this past year.  Having cupcakes for all your guests tends to be less expensive than a large cake.  Still, the top-tier on a wedding cake is very important to the bride and groom.  It is tradition to keep the top-tier for one whole year and enjoy it together on your one year anniversary.  You can still keep that tradition and not have an entire cake.  Below is an example of what one of our couples did for their cake/cupcake display last winter.

Another popular trend is to have a dessert and/or candy buffet.  You can match the colors of your candy and dessert to your theme and wedding colors.  It is a fun and creative way to present the dessert to your guests.

Having a traditional wedding cake is still such a great option.  Keep in mind, these are just a few wedding dessert trends that are becoming more popular.  Whatever you decide to do, make sure that it is something that you love and is unique to you and your wedding.

Send Out Those Save The Date Cards!

Your Save The Date card is your first real invitation to your friends and family, telling them that you want them to attend your wedding.  There are so many different options on how to make your card unique and memorable and give your guests the distinctive information that they need to know to mark their calendars for your upcoming wedding!  Your Save The Date will need to include your wedding date and if you have booked your ceremony and reception site, put that information on there as well.

Below are just some creative ideas to look at for inspiration.

Sending out a Save The Date in a card form is a traditional way to get the information to your guests.  There are so many ways to make your card unique for you as a couple and to fit into the theme of your wedding.  This is a cute idea, especially for a summer wedding. 

You can also tell a little story with your card, making it unique to you as a couple.

If you want to make your Save The Date extra special, you can make them yourselves.  There are countless DIY ideas that you can use to make your card!  For example, what a cute way to tell your guests that you will be “tying the knot”.

If you have the time to spend on making your Save The Date Cards, this is such a cute way to tell your friends and family the date of your wedding.

You don’t just have to send out a card, another cute idea is to make a magnet with your information on it.

There are so many creative and unique ideas to create your Save The Dates!  For more ideas and inspiration, check out of Pinterest page.

Just a Little Bit of DIY Fun!

Purchasing decorations for a wedding can be costly, especially if you really want to go over the top with your decor.  But it doesn’t have to be that expensive if you put your DIY (Do It Yourself) skills to the test and come up with cute and unique ideas for your wedding.

Here at The Boulder Country Club, we have seen some very crafty ideas!  One of the things we see the most is colorful lanterns that can be hung from any of our chandeliers.  You can order these online or if you have a truly talented member of your family or wedding party, they can also be made by hand.

Another popular DIY project is making your own place cards for the guests to know where they are sitting during the reception.  You can tie this into your theme, as we have seen here, for a fall wedding a bride made little leaf place cards and hung them on a tree.

You can also tie in your place cards AND a gift for your guests to take home with them after your wedding is over.  This couple did just that, attaching their cards onto little bottles of champagne.

One of the most popular DIY projects is making centerpieces.  You can have so much fun making unique and colorful centerpieces for your wedding!  This is something you can definitely get creative with.  We have seen many amazing DIY centerpieces at The Boulder Country Club.  Here are just a few below…

These are just some of the great ideas that we have seen at The Boulder Country Club!  You can check out more photos on our Facebook and Pinterest pages.  Creating DIY ideas is such a fun process and at the club, we would LOVE to help you with any ideas that you may have!!!


Choosing the Perfect Venue

Once you become engaged, one of the first things you need to do is pick the right venue for your ceremony and location.  Venues get booked far in advance, so the earlier you can choose your location, the better. 

Choosing the right venue is so important as it will be the setting for the whole evening.  It needs to be able to hold all of your guests comfortably, have the space and ambiance that you are looking for and most of all, be able to provide you with all the things you want out of your wedding.  Most people are starting to veer away from the large hotel ballroom setting and choosing different venues such as mountain resorts, boat houses and country clubs.  These spaces provide a more intimate setting for you and your guests. 

Something else to think about is if you want to have your ceremony and reception at the same venue.  Here at The Boulder Country Club, we provide both sites to you.  We don’t just have a beautiful outdoor ceremony site, we have 3 different locations to have your ceremony outside!  Each of these 3 locations provide gorgeous views and a perfect backdrop for all your wedding photos.  If you are looking to have your ceremony inside, we can do that to, still giving you beautiful mountain views.

Choosing where to have your reception is so important as the reception site will provide you with the space, set up, menu options and so much more.  You want to have all these things in your mind when picking a venue.  Most places offer different wedding packages at a set price and you can pick the package that best fits your budget.  The Boulder Country Club provides you with 4 different wedding package options, ranging from bronze all the way to platinum!  They all contain wonderful hors d’oeuvre and entrée options, a champagne toast, wine service and more.  Our experienced wedding consultants sit with you and will help you choose a package based on what you are looking for and your budget!  These packages can also be customized to keep you on point with your budget and we are here to help in any way possible!

You can see now how important it is to choose the right venue for your wedding.  There are so many details to think about and at The Boulder Country Club, we strive to help you with those details while making sure that we provide you with your dream wedding!
