Melisa & Joshua in Colorado Springs, CO

It's safe to say that Melisa McHale and Joshua (Josh) Fluhr, director of operations at a different posh palace in New York, know a thing or two about hospitality. And they put those skills to good use pulling off a weekend-long wedding at the Broadmoor, in Colorado Springs. THE BRIDE Melisa McHale THE GROOM Joshua (Josh) Fluhr THE DATE September 5 Melisa was lucky to be able to work closely with her mother in planning the event (her parents had moved to Colorado a few years before). It was a wonderful bonding experience and a memory I will always cherish, the bride says. She credits her crazy wedding binder -- now a great keepsake -- with getting them through the process. With help from family and a year of planning, the couple was ready when guests from both coasts converged in Colorado.
