planned around the people, places, and things you love.

Mountain views,
cozy cabins & zero
hiking pressure.

You can have the big Colorado views without turning your wedding day into an episode of Survivor.

Maybe you want to exchange vows beside an alpine lake. Maybe you'd rather hang out at a cozy Airbnb, say your vows in the backyard, and let your dog roll around in the grass. Maybe you want all of the above!

ALL OF THAT COUNTS. And it’s all pretty damn epic.

Let's plan a day that’s more than just taking pretty photos:

  • Enough time to actually enjoy where you are instead of rushing off to the next spot

  • A timeline that leaves room for spontaneity, snack breaks, and whatever else the day throws at us

  • Things you genuinely enjoy doing together

  • Your favorite people, your dog, or just the two of you

  • A little direction when you need it, and plenty of time to forget there's a camera around

I want you to love your photos, obviously. I also want you to remember how much fun you had making them.

Howdy,
I’m Kimberly!

I've spent years exploring Colorado and planning elopements, so you don't need to know a thing about getting married in the mountains. I'll help you figure out where to go, what time to be there, whether Grandma can make it down that trail, and what we're doing if the weather decides to suck.

Maybe you have 32 browser tabs open. Maybe your entire plan is "we just want to get married somewhere pretty, please tell us what to do." Both are excellent starting points. We'll figure out the rest together, and have some fun doing it.

When the day rolls around, I want it to feel less like a photoshoot and more like hanging out with a friend who happens to have a camera.

The goal is a really freaking good day in a pretty place, and maybe you just happen to get married along the way.

Where to elope

in Colorado

Proof that your wedding

can look pretty much

however you want:

from people who’ve been there.

My husband, who HATES having his picture taken, had nothing but fabulous things to say and how for once he actually LIKED to have his pictures taken!

We decided to elope less than a week before and Kimberly made everything completely effortless. In the best way possible, we didn't even notice she was there during the ceremony.

Samantha

She was super helpful planning all the details and giving recommendations, especially since we are not from Colorado. She made planning the elopement so much easier!
