Lauren & Joseph Blue Lake + Family Elopement

Lauren and Joseph’s summer elopement started with a pre-dawn hike, marking the beginning of their extraordinary day. At the summit, they both got ready for their first look, and Lauren even had her hair and makeup done on location in Colorado. So bad ass! The scene was nothing short of breathtaking, with the Telluride mountains standing majestically against the backdrop of a clear sky and the lake standing absolutely still. Their first look was a moment of pure magic in a field of wildflowers, setting the tone for the day’s adventures.

They they set out to share their vows on the shore of the lake as the reflections casted behind them. It was so incredibly clear without a spec of wind to cause any ripples. So beautiful and stunning as the rocks reflected clearly. We then explored the surrounding area for couples photos before popping some bubbles to celebrate and headed back into town to meet up with family for the family ceremony

The weather remained perfect as we arrived at the family portion of the day, surrounded by stunning views, they exchanged vows with their closest friends and family. The ceremony had traditional aspects like walking down the aisle, along with family photos before heading off to their private dinner in a horse drawn sleigh drive. I have a deep passion for blending adventure with tradition into their day, creating unique experiences that allow couples to cherish their own moments while also keeping their families delighted. Lauren & Joseph flawlessly embraced these elements, hitting every special moment along the way, and it was truly enjoyable to capture their journey!
