On a warm August afternoon, Shalisa and Nate brought Denver style to downtown Salida. In Riverside Park, under the limbs of a century old cottonwood tree, the couple said their “I Do’s”. Guests kept cool with the red heart-shaped fans found on their white wooden chairs. After an intimate ceremony, the wedding party returned to the SteamPlant Event Center for a posh D.Y.I. reception that mixed retro, elegant and downtown styles. We love the music themed reception and the rich use of colors in the Ballroom. Shalisa’s gorgeous Vera Wang wedding gown certainty steals the show.
