Vendor Appreciation
Vendor Appreciation
We are fortunate to be working with some of the best professionals in the industry. Their dedication, creativity, and hard work are making our special day truly unforgettable. We cannot wait to see our vision come to life on August 23!
Hearth House: Dan and Angela accidentally stumbled upon this beautiful place during Dan’s birthday dinner across the street, and immediately fell in love with it. Located just north of Colorado Springs, this white barn has both indoor and outdoor space, a grand hearth with two-way fireplace, and provides an elegant mountain ambiance without actually driving into the mountains.
Nicole Hepperle: Nicole is a Wedding and Event Planner who also works for Hearth House. Of course, Dan knows her, and chose her to be their Planner. With her experience, Dan and Angela and comforted to know the day will go as planned!
All Star DJs: No, Dan isn’t DJing his own wedding! HA! But one of Hearth House’s preferred vendors happens to be All Star DJs, owned by Dan’s friend Karson (also known as Karson with a K). Yes, Dan has a curated list of songs to be played during special moments but they are also super excited for Karson to bring his party/club vibe! If you can’t find Angela anywhere else, she’ll be on the dance floor!
Flintwood Floral: Angela met Kristin, the owner of Flintwood Floral several years back while working out at the same gym. And Dan even ran into her while working the same wedding! Flintwood Floral’s arrangements are gorgeous and Dan and Angela can’t wait for you to see what she has created for their special day!
Father Michael Messina: Angela wanted a traditional Catholic ceremony and Dan wanted an officiant who could make him laugh. Well, Father Michael fit the bill! We are pleased to have him officiate our wedding and don’t worry, it won’t be a full Mass!
Jessica Cooke Photography: Dan and Jess have worked weddings together in the past so to him, it was a no-brainer to hire her. Jess will be there to photo-document the more formal moments for Dan and Angela from the ceremony through reception. And in turn, Dan will be DJing her wedding in Fall 2025 down in Taos!
Watermelon Sugar Film and Events: When Angela found out what a Content Creator could do for them on their wedding day, she asked Dan to see what it’s all about with her. After meeting virtually with Rilee, owner and operator, we were hooked! Rilee’s bubbly self will be taking photos and videos of our day with her Iphone, and maybe even do a ‘phone takeover’ for them. She will document all the moments that we might miss and then compile a short video for social media the following day!
What Snappin' Photo Booth: Dan and Angela ran into Val, the owner of What Snappin the summer of 2024 at a party. She is a former co-worker of Dan’s and runs this awesome booth where guests can receive photos via text or have them printed on site! Angela said it was a must-have and of course, Dan obliged. Don’t forget to show those photos off on your socials!
Sugar Plum Cake Shoppe: Sugar Plum is another preferred vendor at Hearth House. While Dan and Angela both LOVE chocolate, they decided to go with something a little lighter for their wedding day and they can’t wait for you to have a taste!
Janel Gruber: Janel has been cutting and styling Angela’s hair for the past 15+ years. And if anyone knows about a great stylist, you’ll know that they must be a great therapist too! For the wedding, Janel will be styling Angela and Haylee’s hair, and then putting the finishing touches on anything else she sees as necessary.
Suite Remedy: Hailey was referred to by a friend of a friend. Having only had professional makeup done once before, but also seeing Hailey’s work online, Angela is excited to see what she can do! Angela’s daughters will also be ‘fresh-faced’ for those photos that will hang on the wall forever!
Buffalo Gals Catering: Dan and Angela decided to forgo some of the newly popular fare for a traditional wedding menu. Our buffet will have something for everyone, including options for those who have dietary restrictions. They look forward to breaking bread with their friends and family over a tasty meal!
First Class Libations: As a preferred vendor at Hearth House, Dan and Angela decided to go with First Class Libations to keep their friends and family well hydrated on their wedding day. They hope you enjoy their signature drinks!
