T Lazy 7 Ranch | Aspen, CO | Issy + Nick Wedding | Summit Photo & Film
Some weddings have that perfect mix of wild energy and heartfelt emotion, and Issy and Nick’s wedding at T-Lazy-7 Ranch was exactly that. Nestled in the mountains just outside Aspen, T-Lazy-7 is hands down one of the most breathtaking venues out there, and despite a little August rain, this day was absolutely magic. The weather gave us those dramatic moody skies, which only made the setting feel more epic. One of my favorite moments was when Issy stepped out of the car into the field, her dress flowing, Pyramid Peak standing tall in the background—it was a total movie moment. As a wedding videographer, these are the shots I dream of capturing. That mix of anticipation, emotion, and jaw-dropping scenery? Perfection.
Of course, the rain made the ceremony even more unforgettable. With mist rolling through the mountains and their closest people surrounding them, Issy and Nick exchanged their vows in the kind of setting you’d see in a romance film—raw, emotional, and ridiculously beautiful. Rain or shine, these two were all in, and that energy carried straight into their reception. And speaking of the reception… the dance floor was pure chaos in the best way possible. At one point, Nick and Issy were literally crowd surfing—yep, full-on lifted by their friends, laughing and throwing their hands in the air like they were at the best concert of their lives. When a couple goes all out like that, it makes the wedding film feel like a wild ride in the best way.
Before all of this, the weekend kicked off with an amazing rehearsal dinner at The Ale House in Aspen Highlands, where everyone got to soak in the pre-wedding excitement. From intimate toasts to some truly solid beer choices, it was the perfect warm-up for the big day. None of this would have come together so seamlessly without Meg Critchell, who planned everything to perfection. The entire vendor team made sure every detail was dialed in, from stunning florals to killer lighting that made the reception feel like a dream. This wedding was a reminder that no matter what the weather does, when two people are this excited to celebrate each other, the day is going to be absolutely unforgettable.
