Imagine a scene right out of a storybook, with a moody sky, vibrant autumn foliage, and an intimate mountain cabin wedding. This wedding celebration took place at Lynn Britt Cabin in Snowmass, Colorado, and my violinist and I loved being a part of a very special day for this wonderful couple.

After punching in the gate code, we wound our way up the mountainside, and the rustic setting of Lynn Britt Cabin came into view. The foliage was in its peak glory against a moody sky, and chic decor offset the wild beauty of the mountainside. It rained as we played a prelude of traditional classical and contemporary music. As we played, the sun suddenly emerged in a glorious display, illuminating the surroundings with its warm light, and the ceremony was quickly pushed up to take advantage of this moment. The bride and groom exchanged their vows bathed in golden sunlight.

Following the ceremony, we continued to play a set of romantic contemporary music as the guests enjoyed drinks and appetizers, and took advantage of the last few rays of sunshine. The weather once again turned cold and rainy after a time, and the cocktail hour was likewise cut short so that the guests could take shelter in the heated reception tent.

From the Bride:

“We were so thrilled Christen and her team were available for our wedding. She was a joy to work with, was on top of everything and made me feel like this was one major item I could check off my list and not have to worry. Extremely professional and helpful when we weren’t sure which choice of music we wanted to go with. I would choose her 100x over.” Kristen L.
