Blog post - Crested Butte Hiking Elopement | Heidi + Morgan | 19th March 2024 | By Kelly

Crested Butte Hiking Elopement | Heidi + Morgan

Heidi + Morgan’s Crested Butte Hiking Elopement

Heidi and Morgan came to me wanting to elope anywhere in Colorado. They weren’t set on where, but they were interested in a Crested Butte hiking elopement because it was special to them and they love the old saloons in town. So, while I did suggest some non Crested Butte locations to them, they stuck to what their hearts was telling them! Their date? Mid June. Was there still snow on the trails? Yes! 2023 was a record breaking year of snow fall in Colorado, so it took well in July for all the mountain snow to melt! It made for some fun navigating during their hike! 😊 The morning of their elopement, the aspens were just beginning to bud, and there was snow/rain in the forecast! Even though it ended up raining about half way into their day, it didn’t bring their spirits down at all! As you can see, Heidi and Morgan were extremely smitten for one another and just so excited to be starting their marriage. After their Crested Butte hiking elopement in the morning we all went back and took naps and then met up later on in the afternoon at a local saloon for beers and pub games. It was such a fun night. I can’t wait to hang out with these two again! Congrats Heidi and Morgan! You’re so badass!!!! 🥾

It’s your turn!

Being in Moab yesterday had me reminiscing on Hill Being in Moab yesterday had me reminiscing on Hillary + Matt’s sunset elopement there a few seasons back so I wanted to share some from their day 💜💙🩷🧡  It had me thinking how an elopement day doesn’t have to end as soon as the sun goes down. All of these pics here were taken during the last few minutes of light, and then right after during what we call “blue hour”. That special time when everything turns shades of blue, and as you can see, it’s pretty magical ✨  .

All the fall colors for Holly + Mason’s elopement All the fall colors for Holly + Mason’s elopement last fall in Ouray 🍂 ⛰️  We drove up a 4x4 road, and were kind of surprised when we didn’t see another soul out there. It was just us and the wide open space. We explored the area a bit before making our way to their ceremony spot. They exchanged their vows right there in the mountains, in the chilly autumn air. It was what fall Colorado elopement dreams are made of. Something small. Simple. And set somewhere stunning ✨  If you’re thinking of eloping this fall, I only have 2 more dates available! Reach out today and we can start planning!!  .
