In my mind, the key to marriage is simple.
Above all else, be best friends.
I know, I know. I’m 30. I’ve been married for a whopping five years. What do I know about marriage advice? But hear me out here…
Think about any couple you know that’s been happily married for 5, 10, 25, heck even 50 years. I can almost guarantee, the couple you’re thinking of – whoever they are – they’re best friends. It’s the core, the base, the foundation. Because to love each other, you have to like each other.
Krista and Max are absolutely best friends. The best of friends. The best friends that split the last piece of gum in the pack. The best friends that have countless inside jokes. The best friends that are each great by themselves, but just so much better when they are together. They have that base. And they have the love that follows. The kind of love that’s almost too good to be true.

Krista’s dress was insanely beautiful. That mix romance and elegance that you dream of.
Krista & Max’s first look, with Krista’s dad watching from a far.
I don’t get jumping shots too often, but this? This is too fantastic not to share.
That view. It ooozes with Colorado romance.
Candid bridal portraits are my favorite kind of bridal party portraits!
Krista…you are so beautiful. SO beautiful.
I love how soft and romantic these are. The Aspen grove we found was a dream.
The ceremony was high on the mountain, with the most incredible Colorado view.
Stunning florals and decor by the ever-talented Nature’s Grace Design.
The sunset was glowing with the most perfect evening light.
The reception was a blast complete with live music from Missed The Boat!
The best way to end their Granby Ranch wedding? Romance under the lights!
Favorite. Best for last, right?
Congratulations, Krista & Max. I hope your marriage brings you nothing but love, and years of being best friends.
