There’s something unmistakably magical about Aspen in September. The light softens, the mountains glow, and the season shifts just enough to feel intimate and full of possibility. Olivia and Jared chose T-Lazy-7 Ranch for its sweeping views and quiet natural beauty, creating a celebration that blended simple elegance with subtle celestial notes inspired by Olivia’s love of astrology.

Their day unfolded with effortless charm — from a ceremony framed by aspen groves to a candlelit reception touched with midnight blue and gold accents. Designed with a balance of warmth, refinement, and understated detail, this wedding showcases the elevated mountain experience that makes Aspen such an extraordinary destination for couples. It was captured beautifully by Alp & Isle Photography and Mark Morarie Videography. Be sure to check out the video after the photos!
