Nestled in the crisp, golden hues of early fall, high in the mountains, a bride stepped into her moment — and into a dress that felt like poetry. Her gown was a vision of soft romance: delicate layers of tulle kissed with hand-sewn flower embellishments that seemed to bloom right from the fabric.

“What an absolutely incredible way to spend our wedding weekend!
BDL is the perfect spot if you want all your favorite people in one place. The inside has a wow factor and was so fun to have the welcome party & reception in the space where we were all staying. The meadow ceremony site is absolutely breathtaking. Outside of the lodge, we ventured down the road to the Durango Hot Springs, hiked Potato Mtn, ate at the Nugget Mountain Bar, and ventured into Trimble and d.t. Durango. Oh and the staff was fantastic!”
