"Colorado couple are down to do whatever! Which I think makes them special. I think my favorite thing about Colorado weddings is the vendor community we have. All the vendors are incredible, and some of my best friends come from this industry."
" Don't settle- book the vendors you LOVE, and make sure to book vendors that you will get along with and who feel like you would be friends with post-wedding. Even if you have to fly them out. These vendors will bend over backwards for you, if you book the right ones!"
Madison loves seeing her couples being loved so much by their people on their day. Speeches from the father also tug at her heart strings in an aggressive manor! Her dream wedding would be an open, Colorado field where they get to bring every detail to create a wedding that celebrates Colorado's natural beauty. This could be ceremony installs, tents, tables, chairs, etc. Let's allow Colorado to do the work, and we will simply enhance the glory that already exists.

"There's no place like a Colorado mountain town! A weekend in the mountains always leaves us, our clients, and their guests refreshed and rejuvenated. "
"The more you trust your planner and vendor team, the more enjoyable the process and your wedding weekend will be. Never try anything new less than a month before your wedding. Quality over quantity (including your guest count)."
"Our team loves travel and experiencing new places, cultures, people, and form design concepts accordingly. It truly is what makes us feel most alive!"

"I love Colorado because everyone has their priorities in order! They want a fun experience, a beautiful backdrop, and creative additions! We love the mix of mountain and urban as well."
"I would advise couples to make date days out of absolutely every step of the process! Going to Denver for a photo consultation? Stay and eat at a new restaurant! Location scouting? Find a fun hike or adventure along the way! Just make it FUN!"
"The absolute best part about our jobs is feeling like we're giving something back, or doing something worth while. I once heard a sentiment that has stuck with me for years...we may not be surgeons, or first responders, but we provide the experiences and memories that people look back on or look forward to when things are really tough. We feel very fulfilled after each wedding we do!"

Couples seek out Revel + Bloom / Sage Events for their intentional and elevated approach and taste. Rather than only focus on the final product, they have also honed in the process in which they guide each couple through to ensure that each step of planning, from their vendor team, to design, to logistical flow, is curated to them and their relationship. Their value can be found in both the extensive, deep vendor relationships they keep as well as the innovative edge in their design sensibilities.
They truly thrive from first doing an intentional deep dive into each couple and the life they've already created together and translating that into a celebration that is reflective of just that. For this reason they also work best with couples who look forward to having their guiding expertise at each step of their planning process!

"All of the ways that I am able to be a liaison for each couple, which inherently looks different every time. This can look like being the matchmaker between the couple and their ideal vendor partners some days. Other days it is about understanding what the couple is really saying (or not saying) and bringing that to life in a way far better and more authentic than they originally imagined. "
"Throw out any concepts of what you "should do" and focus only on what feels authentic to you. A close second is to trust the professionals you have brought onto your team!"
"The diversity of the landscapes throughout the state and all of the small corners that are to be explored. Most of the couples we work with are traveling with their guests to Colorado, so sharing the grandeur of the state is special!"

"Certainly an elopement style, with maybe a few close friends and family, overlooking a beautiful Colorado scape. Because, did you actually get married in Colorado if you didn't capture those gorgeous views?"
"Don't wait to hire a coordinator! While it may appear like our services are limited to the "day of" or "month of" they most certainly are not. Unique to Calico, our couples are given full access to our team's expertise from the moment they jump on board with us. Don't hesitate to reach out to your favorite vendors as soon as you're engaged."
"Our couples have voted us The Knot Best Of every year since our inception in 2019. We've successfully made our way on to preferred vendor lists for venues, photographers, florists and other vendors along the Front Range."

"Couples that plan a Colorado wedding, whether they are planning locally or from afar, want to share the beauty and magic of this state with their family and friends. We love sharing that magic with them!"
"Hire a planner whenever possible. Having a collaborative partner early in the process saves you from the stress of wedding planning. Planning your wedding should be fun and if its not, ask for help. We believe that your wedding should speak to your style and relationship so if you're not traditional, don't feel like your wedding needs to be."
"At the end of the night when we put our couples in the get away car, we take a moment to reflect on how perfect the whole day was. That moment brings us so much joy knowing that the couple was having so much fun that they didn't realize how seamless their wedding was until the end of the night. Bringing joy to our clients is the very best part of this job."
