This week’s Vendor of the Week is a “2 for 1″! Two sisters, both with an eye for detail – Jackie of Just Bloomed works her magic on creating gorgeous florals while Jennie of Sewell Photography captures each moment of the day, big and small, on camera.

Jackie’s enthusiasm for flowers and design are contagious. She’s got a great eye for color and a passion for those “finishing touch” details that make each event unique and memorable. And Jennie has a definite knack for showcasing those colors and details in photos. But what really makes Jennie such a fabulous photographer is that she is someone you immediately feel comfortable with – allowing her to capture so many of those rare intimate and candid moments. Plus, these girls are just plain fun! It’s no wonder they’ve both become such word-of-mouth sensations around the Twin Cities!

Their joint studio is located by Lake Nokomis in Minneapolis and although the companies are separate, Jackie and Jennie do occasionally get to work together. Here are some examples of when their stunning work overlaps.

Our vendor of the week is Della Terra in Estes Park Colorado.  Yesterday, we were fortunate enough to visit Colorado’s newest venue or should we say “Chateau” and we can’t stop talking about it!   It was beyond our expectations and well worth the drive from Denver!  This fabulous venue has taken years to build, but as you can see… it was well worth the wait!  While its currently in the final phases of construction, it opens to the public next month and we cannot wait visit again. 

Della Terra, meaning “of the earth”, is located above Estes Park at the Fall River entrance to the Rocky Mountain National Park. The Chateau rests at the top of the wooded acreage, surrounded by untouched nature, overlooking the southern valley and the western continental divide across a sea of pines, tucked below the granite cliffs. Della Terra has fourteen luxury suites featuring fireplaces and private balconies with hot tubs, a lodge room with three-sided stone fireplace and waterfall, private spa treatment room, dry heat sauna, styling salon, espresso bar, library and theatre room.  

This ideal ceremony and reception site accommodates up to 200 guests. It is complete with a raised platform, dance floor, full service bar, DJ area with sound and lighting systems, live band area and gourmet kitchen for your caterer. Additionally, Della Terra offers our intimate indoor Gathering Place which features balconies and two large fireplaces. They are currently offering tours and reservations, so contact them today! Trust us- it’s amazing!
