Desi & Hannah Breckenridge, Elopement

Desi and Hannah opted for an intimate elopement, prioritising the inclusion of their two beloved dogs over a grand ceremony. Envisioning snow-capped peaks and lush foliage, they meticulously planned their escape, selecting a Wednesday afternoon with hopes for favorable weather despite nature’s unpredictable temperament.

The day began like any other, but the majestic backdrop of the mountains elevated each moment. As final preparations unfolded, I joined them, feeling the anticipation build. Dressed and with their car packed alongside their furry companions, we embarked on their adventure. Accompanied by nostalgic 90s tunes, we arrived at a tranquil frozen lake surrounded by rocks, lush trees, and snow-capped peaks – a mere glimpse of what awaited at Copper Key.

At Copper Key, amidst a breathtaking gulch encircled by majestic mountains, vows were exchanged, witnessed by their faithful dogs, igniting jubilation that lingered beyond the ceremony. We ascended a nearby mountain pass, marveling at the awe-inspiring panorama, until the realization struck – “we’ve made it, let’s celebrate.” With their loyal dog by their side, they indulged in a champagne shower, raising a toast to formalize their union with their furry friend as witness.

After a day exploring Colorado’s scenic wonders and welcoming me as an honorary uncle to their pets, we concluded the evening with a barbecue feast and a tranquil soak in the hot tub. Stepping out, Uncle Sean shared a glimpse of the enchanting moments captured from their unforgettable day. It was a complete and enchanting experience.
