Real Wedding Stirling + Josh | A Romantic Military Wedding in Watters
Stirling's rose gold Watters gown added the perfect rustic element to her military wedding at Blanc in Denver. Her two piece dress was soft and romantic next to the decorated dress uniform of her groom. From the greenery and tealights along the aisle to the cigar bar offered at the reception the nuptials were rustic and elegant down to the last detail. The couple ended the night dancing under the soft glow of market lights. We loved how the bride blended non-traditional elements with the family and military traditions. From the bride:
It was important that our wedding was fun, casual and nontraditional while still respecting Military and family traditions, like a saber arch, a fallen soldier table, cutting of the cake with a cutlass and dances with the mother of the groom and father of the bride. Before our ceremony started, our guests had a cocktail hour so that they could have their beverages to enjoy during the quick (and unseasonably warm) ceremony, which included a close friend playing the piano and surprise shots of whiskey brought up before the kiss. We had heavy, passed appetizers, followed by interactive serving stations. Our guests could eat when they wanted to and sit when they wanted to at communal tables throughout the venue. Dancing almost immediately began in the old, long standing industrial barn in the back of Blanc and continued through the end of the wedding. We had a lounge with couches and chairs, as well as a cigar bar for those who wanted to sneak away for a dancing break.
