A Classic Ceremony at St. Mary’s Church

After the ceremony, guests boarded the gondola and made their way to one of Aspen’s most iconic venues, The Sundeck at The Little Nell.
Situated at more than 11,000 feet above sea level, the Sundeck offered breathtaking views of the surrounding peaks. With fresh snowfall adding a touch of magic, the space transformed into a cozy winter haven. Twinkling lights, warm textures, and elegant details filled the reception with elevated mountain charm.
As the sun dipped behind the mountains, guests enjoyed champagne toasts, delicious food, and heartfelt speeches that celebrated Jacqueline and Eric’s journey together. Laughter filled the room, happy tears were shed, and countless joyful memories were created.
One of the most unforgettable moments was when Jacqueline and Eric shared their first dance as husband and wife. Surrounded by candlelight and snow-covered windows, the moment felt like a scene from a romantic film.
Later in the evening, the dance floor came alive with celebration while snow continued to fall outside. It was the perfect ending to a day full of beauty and emotion.
