Tom and Blaire’s wedding was nothing short of perfect. Set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Dillon Amphitheater at the Dillion Marina Park Pavilion in early October. Their day was filled with love, laughter, and some of the most incredible views Colorado has to offer. Overlooking the gorgeous Dillon Reservoir, this venue provided the perfect mix of natural beauty and intimate charm.

A Quiet Moment Before the Ceremony

Before the celebrations began, we met Tom and Blaire at the shores of Dillon Reservoir for a quiet and intimate bride and groom portrait session. These moments before the ceremony are always so special—just the couple, the breathtaking scenery, and a chance to soak in the excitement of the day.
As we walked along the shoreline, we found hidden pockets of beauty for their portraits, capturing the magic of the mountains and the peaceful waters behind them. One of our favorite parts of the day was watching Tom and Blaire get lost in the moment together, forgetting we were even there. That’s when we know a couple is truly present—when they pause, breathe, and take in the beauty around them, just the two of them.


Saying “I Do” with a View

We then headed to the ceremony site, and the views here were absolutely unbelievable. The reservoir, full of boats drifting across the water, stretched out beneath the towering mountains that seemed to rise right from the shoreline. It was an incredible backdrop for Tom and Blaire to exchange their vows.


After the ceremony, the newlyweds took a moment to celebrate with a champagne pop, laughing and soaking in the joy of the moment.

Family photos followed, and before heading to the reception, we made one last stop at the beach for a final mini session with just the two of them.

A Reception to Match the View

Where Tom and Blaire had their reception, once again, the theme was all about the view. The Vue Restaurant and Hotel in Dillon offered the perfect setting with stunning panoramic vistas that complemented their celebration. The intimate upstairs space was reserved just for them, ensuring a personal, cozy feel. The panoramic views of the Dillon Reservoir and surrounding mountains were absolutely breathtaking, and it felt like a seamless extension of the ceremony location.

As guests enjoyed delicious food, heartfelt toasts, and danced the night away, the incredible views outside remained the perfect backdrop for their celebration. Tom and Blaire’s wedding day was truly a reflection of their love and the beauty of the mountains they adore.
