Victoria & Caleb | A Breathtaking Villa Parker Wedding

March 7, 2017 March 15, 2026 From the Hip Photo1 comment4332 views

We first met this fun-loving couple at a pre-ceremony wedding party chalk fight where they were covered head to toe in bright chalk powder paints. Believe us when we tell you that they clean up very nicely, as do all of their wedding party participants. So let’s bring your attention to their even more spectacular Villa Parker wedding day!

Breathtaking Villa Parker Wedding Photography | Traditional Vietnamese Tea Ceremony

To start the day off right, Victoria and Caleb hosted door games for their guests. It was extremely entertaining for us to watch everyone staying loose before the main event. The groom and his groomsmen played one game in particular where they tried to make a table-like circle out of themselves. One man would lay down on their neighbor’s bent knees and so on until they formed a balanced circle. Their coordination was impressive!

Before their breathtaking Villa Parker wedding ceremony, Victoria and Caleb held a traditional Vietnamese tea ceremony. Joined by their close friends and family, the couple served tea and presented gifts to their parents. Each set of parents received a picture frame with their own wedding picture next to a picture of Caleb and Victoria recreating it. To say it was a touching moment is an understatement!

The wedding ceremony took place at the rustic Villa Parker venue in Parker, Colorado. We’d be lying if we said our hearts didn’t melt when furry little Archer the French bulldog walked down the aisle and took a seat on his dad’s dress shoes. Caleb and his groomsmen looked dapper as ever in matching blue bowties at the altar made out of aspen trees. Archer even had on a black bowtie himself! Plus, he pulled double-duty as the videographer for the day (with a GoPro camera harnessed to his back). We would love to see what he captured!

Victoria looked stunning in her off the shoulder gown, garnished with a wide embellished belt. She held a bouquet of paper flowers that she made herself. DIY wedding details are always charming and we are big fans of how they can help make aspects of your special day even more meaningful.

After the ceremony, the festivities continued on into the evening! Caleb and Victoria were all smiles and laughs in their DIY photo booth. The reception was packed full of dancing, s’mores, and even a few stolen kisses between the newlyweds under Victoria’s translucent veil. In our estimation, te day was utterly flawless and we feel very lucky that they let us be a part of it!

We’d like to give a big thank you to the other vendors that took part in Caleb and Victoria’s special day at Villa Parker! Tony Rosacci’s Fine Catering and Das Meyer for the food, drinks, and pastries; that gorgeous updo and eyeshadow by the talented Hair Artistry by Hilary and Liana Kathryn Makeup; the elegant dress, shoes, and alterations done by Essence of Australia, Vince Camuto, and Rachel’s Alterations; the tuxedos from Event Rentals the groom and his groomsmen wore impeccably; Michael B. for the beautifully crafted rings; and last but not least, the Villa Parker wedding venue in Parker, CO!
