Next Year's Wedding Pink

As most of you know we just wrapped up this year's Wedding Pink and we are happy to report that it was a huge success. We've barely had time to breathe as we are working around the clock bringing together another great team of vendors for next year's wedding on the western slope.

In case you have missed it here are a "few" of the great things that we are putting together for next year.

The wedding will take place on Sunday, May 5 at the Wine Country Inn in Palisade, Colorado and will be coordinated by Chelsea of Chelsea Allie Wedding Planning and Design. High Country Orchards and Vineyards will be hosting a welcome cocktail reception on Saturday, May 4. JR's Carriage Service will be providing horse carriage rides for family and friends through the vineyards. Sweet Treats by Danielle will be making a beautiful wedding cake while 3 Leaf Floral Design will put together some amazing floral arrangements. Wedding guests will also enjoy dancing with entertainment by DJ Ryan Griz and will have a blast with the 970 Photo Booth Company. All of these great memories will be captured by Fifth Gear Portrait Designs and Cheryl Ungar Wedding Photography.

Please don't forget that our submission period is open this summer, August 1 - 18. We encourage anyone to submit their story as long as they meet our submission criteria.

Special Video Message from Robin Roberts of Good Morning America

In the spirit of passing it on from one survivor to another, Robin Roberts was kind enough to send a video message to Roxanne and Joseph. You can imagine the surprise, delight and gratitude they felt when this video was played during the reception.

Please take a moment to view the video and share in what they experienced.

Tune into Channel 7 this Saturday morning at 8:10

With all of the excitement of next week's Wedding Pink I almost forgot to mention that Melissa, our beautiful bride from last year, and I will be on the Channel 7 morning show in Denver.

It is a great opportunity to see how Melissa is doing one year later, catch up on the status of this year's wedding and see how you can submit your story for next year's wedding.

Stay tuned though, more exciting announcements coming soon!

 

 

Thank You to our Sponsors!

As most of you know this year's Wedding Pink is taking place next week and we are all so excited to see Roxanne and Joseph tie the knot. This is the perfect ending to Roxanne's story of survival and we couldn't be more thrilled to have given them this wedding.

In addition to all of the generous vendors who are donating their services and products we have 2 local companies that we would like to recognize. Both of them have provided funding in order to cover the small costs of the wedding that we could not otherwise get donated.

With much gratitude, we would like to thank Primeflex and CoBank.
