Dana and Connor met as freshman at Colorado School of Mines back in 2012. Connor invited Dana out to a Rockies baseball game, tricking her into thinking it was a group going but he had only invited her. They quickly became best friends and spent the next ten years biking, skiing, golfing together.
During a tropical getaway to Cabo, Connor popped the question to Dana while golfing and of course, she said yes! These two now live in Texas but have a special place in their hearts for Colorado, so it was fitting to choose a venue that showcases the views they so dearly love. Mount Vernon Canyon Club was a stunning backdrop for their big day and everything came together for a perfect soiree!
I loved the little details they brought in to personalize their day. From Connor's custom topo tie (with topography from Mines to Mount Vernon!) to including their sweet pup Lana, every single piece of their day was 100% them. Congrats, you guys!
The couple's biggest wedding planning advice: "Don't sweat the small stuff - some things count for a lot but most of them don't. Be careful what you let stress you out!"
