The day may have started off a little bit gloomy and damp, but as you can see from these Mining Exchange wedding pictures, Austin and Kelsey’s downtown Colorado Springs nuptials ended up being perfect in every way. The weather even decided to cooperate after all! All the clouds miraculously lifted just after the ceremony and we were treated to the most glorious, late afternoon sunshine. Classic Colorado!

Beautiful Kelsey is so tiny, she had to wear high, high platform shoes so Austin could kiss her without stooping. But although the may be petite, she’s mighty! As you can see from these pictures, she is extremely fit and strong. In fact, Kelsey is somewhat of a a body builder, and her beautifully defined muscles looked fantastic in her strapless lace gown. Wow! She worked hard to prepare for her wedding, and it shows! Austin, meanwhile, is so clearly in love with her — it was just adorable the way he gazed at her when she wasn’t looking. The smile never left his face. They are such a cute couple.

I had such a blast covering this fun, family oriented, downtown Colorado Springs wedding. Kelsey has great taste, and her cheerful blue and yellow color scheme was perfect for a summer celebration. Wonderful, happy day, guys! Congratulations again and happy honeymoon!
