Chartreuse & Sunshine at Evergreen Lake House

Under the whimsical glow of the Colorado sun, Scott and Jess celebrated their union at the Evergreen Lake House with a day defined by ease and genuine presence. Photographer Madison Cotten and planner Jillian Marie Events transformed the space into a vibrant summer haven, anchoring the design in a bold chartreuse that mirrored the surrounding pines. Because the couple had already wed in a private Cape Cod ceremony the year before, this gathering was purely about connection; they even spent the morning getting ready together to ensure the day remained intentionally calm. In a sweet nod to their shared history as pilots—having first met when Scott was Jess’s flight instructor—paper plane escort cards guided guests toward an evening of dancing on the dock as the sun dipped behind the timberline.
