Shelby Owens & Alec Zogas
July 24, 2021
For Shelby Owens and Alec Zogas, the town of Crested Butte, Colorado, marks the beginning of their forever. Mutual friends had tried to set them up in Dallas many times, but when the pair found themselves both in the Rocky Mountain town one New Year’s, there was no denying it was kismet. Once engaged, the couple decided to celebrate their nuptials where their love story began, while blooms were still plentiful from the destination’s annual wildflower festival.
“I wanted something unique to us,” says Shelby, who sought to enhance the wildflower aspect with a natural, undone feel. The result: a flower-filled, sunny outdoor ceremony and indoor reception full of personal details and whimsy. —Mary Grace Granados

One of the first decisions Shelby and Alec made when planning their wedding was hiring photographer Charla Storey, who also took their engagement photos.
“Having her as a cohesive look to the wedding was really important to me,” Shelby says.
