Telluride Fall Backyard Wedding

September 27, 2025

There’s something undeniably special about exchanging vows surrounded by the crisp mountain air and the vibrant colors of fall, and that’s exactly what made this Telluride backyard wedding so unforgettable. Nestled on their family property just south of Telluride, the couple celebrated their love in a setting that was both deeply personal and breathtakingly beautiful.

Gold and organe hues of the surrounding leaves, rustic décor, and the natural charm of the mountains set the tone for a day that felt intimate, relaxed, and full of heart. The bride and groom added meaningful touches throughout the celebration, from vintage skis reflecting their shared love of hitting the slopes to South African blooms honoring the groom’s heritage. Every detail, big or small, made the day uniquely theirs.

It’s these kinds of celebrations—intimate, authentic, and surrounded by the beauty of Colorado that remind us why backyard weddings can be so magical. For couples dreaming of a mountain-inspired day that feels completely their own, there’s truly no place like home.
