Colorful Wedding at Blanc Denver

AS OF JULY 2025, BLANC DENVER IS PERMANENTLY CLOSED.

I get a lot of couples who start off by planning a wedding.

Then, they quickly realize they wanted to elope instead. Ram and Ashley were not that couple. They actually started planning an elopement and then quickly realized they wanted a party instead! Their wedding at Blanc Denver allowed them to invite all the people that mattered to them and celebrate with SO. MUCH. COLOR!

About Blanc Denver

Unfortunately, since Ram and Ashely had their colorful day, Blanc Denver has closed its doors. It was a beautiful, urban venue in the RiNo neighborhood of Denver, which made it really convenient for accessing all the fun night life. I’m sad it’s closed, but check out my blog in the next few weeks for some Colorado venues similar to Blanc Denver!

Ashley and Ram’s Wedding at Blanc Denver

Ashley and Ram had one of the most colorful weddings I’ve ever photographed in my life. The vibes were youthful and fun, but still sophisticated. It was also a perfect blend of traditional wedding elements and unique moments that celebrated their relationship.

The Flowers

Ram and Ashley chose Blumenhaus as their florist because they knew she could match the level of color and fun that was going on with all the other elements of their day. She also delivered some super unique arrangements, like their centerpieces and Ram’s lapel. Masculine wedding outfits don’t have to have the prom-style boutonniere. Ram’s lapel florals were fucking killer. I loved that these two embraced getting as creative with his arrangement as they did with Ashley’s bouquet.

The Ceremony

Ashley and Ram had an elopement-esque moment by sharing private vows together before any of their family arrived for the ceremony. It’s so important for couples to have private moments on their wedding day, and this was a great intimate experience for them to have together. They walked down the aisle together which I thought was super sweet, and then they did a special handshake before their first kiss. So many special aspects that were unique to them and their day! After the ceremony, we prioritized taking 30 minutes for them to have a breather and smoke a joint before joining everyone for the reception. How fucking cool do they look?!

The Reception

This wedding at Blanc Denver was a PARTY! Ashley’s mom surprised them with a Mariachi band. They had no freakin’ idea what was happening – it was such a cool moment to capture. Ashley also did an outfit change so she could be more comfortable for the rest of the night. I love an outfit change and totally think more people should embrace them on their wedding or elopement day. One of the standout moments of the day for me was discovering Ashley and Ram taking an intentional moment to soak in their day. I couldn’t find them ANYWHERE. I looked outside and found them just looking into the windows at their reception. Wedding days can feel like a blur – don’t forget to slow down and take in the special moments.
