Pawlowski Wedding

Team Nelson is fresh off of a beautiful weekend in Steamboat Springs, Colorado where we were so lucky to be a part of Ryan Pawlowski's wedding to his beautiful bride Lisa.



They are such a fun couple and the wedding was extremely beautiful. Annika played the role of flower girl and Stephen a groomsman. Annika and I spent Saturday taking a beautiful 2 hour bike ride through Steamboat while Stephen spent most of the weekend doing "groomsman things" with the men. Annika's highlight for the weekend was riding up and down the mountain to the wedding site in the Gondola (or "All-Gone-Dola" in Annika's words). Annika did a great job as the flower girl, especially for her age. I of course had some fun with the camera!


Do I have cracker in my teeth - Annika checking her reflection in the mirror before the wedding.

What a beautiful pair! The tuxes were brown and gold and looked great!

So the video of Annika walking (running) down the aisle didn't turn out so well as I was too excited to hold the camera steady. This video below, however took my breath away as I was filming it. I think I had a sneak peak into a Daddy daughter dance in our future.

Next we take it up a notch - after Annika miraculously slept through the DJ and all the fun from about 8:30 - 11:15 or so, she woke up to take in about 7-8 dances to round the night out! This is a 1980's classic that Annika may have heard once or twice before blasting in her parents house.
