Your dream Colorado elopement in
the mountains of Breckenridge

Nestled in the heart of the Colorado Rockies, Breckenridge offers an enchanting backdrop for your elopement. With its stunning mountain vistas, serene alpine lakes, and charming historic town, Breckenridge provides the perfect blend of natural beauty and romantic ambiance.

Whether you dream of exchanging vows on a snow-covered peak or beside a tranquil forest stream, our elopement photography captures every magical moment of your intimate celebration in this breathtaking location. 

If you're here, then it probably means an experience straight from the wedding factory isn't really what you're looking for. You want personal, intimate, and anything but cookie cutter for your wedding day. 

There is no one "right way" to elope in Colorado. Adventure as much as you want or relax as much as you want. Elopements offer a lot of freedom- go almost anywhere, do almost anything, and that many options can often start to feel overwhelming. I love being able to help take couples from feeling overwhelmed to confidently crafting the day they've been dreaming of- from narrowing down location options to drawing up the perfect day of timeline. Together we'll create a day that makes you stop and think "everyone should get married like this".

Meaningful and Genuine elopement days with a side of epic views

I love Colorado, I love our mountains, and I especially love getting to share and experience them with couples on their wedding days. I've lived in Colorado for almost 10 years and I love exploring the mountains- especially White River National Forest. Hiking and car camping are two of my main hobbies, but when I’m home, I love to research. Colorado just has so much to offer- I spend a ton of time on Google Maps and AllTrails doing adventure research, creating lists, and keeping meticulous track of what I find. I want to be that person that knows the mountains. I love being able to recommend the cutest mountain towns and coffee shops and breweries, and I’m always the person that friends text saying “here’s what I’m looking for, what hike should I do?” or "where should I go if I want to see wildflowers?". 

Breckenridge (and Summit County in general) is one of my favorite parts of the state because there's a little bit of everything- incredible mountain passes, alpine lakes, off roading and hiking trails, rivers, wildflowers, and fall colors.

The best day ever and the photos to prove it

- Jessica G

"She sent beautifully laid out potential sites with so much information about timing distance, and lighting. She even suggested vendors for flowers, makeup, and cakes!! From the moment she came in the door I felt like she was an old friend. She was so fun to work with; she even helped pin my son and (now) husband’s boutonnières for them. She has SUCH an eye for lighting and movement that will look not only beautiful, but natural as well. She made us feel so happy and excited to have her with us! We shared cake and talked and laughed together like friends. Our hike to the location was a BLAST!! It is apparent that she loves what she is doing!! And the TALENT is by far what takes the cake!"

The best time of year to elope in Breckenridge

Where to elope in Breckenridge

These areas range in elevation from 8000ft to over 12000ft, so there are vastly different types of weather experiences depending on the time of year.
Breckenridge is one of the best year-round locations for eloping. Summer, which is typically late June-August, means wildflowers, lots of green, and sparkling alpine lakes.  It takes a while for snow to melt at higher elevations, which means months like April- early June can have a lot of mud and leftover snow, but lower elevations can have spring like conditions with trees just starting to get leaves and frozen lakes melting.
This area also has incredible fall colors which tend to show up late September- early October. The aspen trees turn the mountain sides into yellow and orange patchworks that are just as are incredible from afar as when you walk through them.
Locations are just as plentiful in the winter months, December-March. Summit County is a ski town through and through. The mountains are blanketed in snow, the pine trees look frosted, and there are tons of amazing locations and winter activities. If you're looking for a winter wonderland, this is it!

Mountain Pass: 

Lake Dillon:

Breckenridge has almost limitless location options year round. Many locations are close together allowing the two of you to experience a little bit of everything on your elopement day- from a high mountain pass along the Continental Divide, to an aspen forest, to an alpine lake. There's tons of hiking options, but if that's not really your thing, there's just as many location that only require a little bit of walking. 


Summit County has a few different mountain passes around that allow you to get to really high elevations and top of the world views. It looks like you hiked for miles, but without having to do all the work! Mountain passes are perfect for elopement days where its just the two of you or less than 10 guests. 

Surrounded by the majestic Rocky Mountains, Lake Dillon is a stunning and accessible destination for your elopement. With its expansive, sparkling waters and breathtaking views, Lake Dillon provides an idyllic setting without the work of hiking. Whether you dream of a lakeside ceremony with the peaks reflected in the water or a cozy, secluded spot among the pines, this picturesque backdrop will enhance every cherished moment.
