Colorado Elopement Packages: Your Ultimate Guide to Eloping in Colorado
We are Andy and Abbi, two wedding photographers who moved our focus from standard weddings to something more creative, more beautiful, more adventurous, and more memorable: Adventure elopements.
Together we made Wanderlust Elopements for those of you looking for something a little different than the traditional wedding, a little more “you.”
Why Elope in Colorado?
Our goal is to take couples to the most beautiful places, to help create and capture incredible memories, and have a really good time with you while we do it! Are you dreaming of a breathtaking, intimate wedding surrounded by rugged mountain-scapes, aspen forests, meadows crammed with wild flowers, or desert canyons? Colorado is the perfect place to say "I do." The craggy alpine peaks, serene lakes, and flora + fauna in Colorado offer a ridiculous variety of backdrops for couples who want a wedding day with exactly the surroundings that they envision in their dreams. At Wanderlust Elopements it is our priority to help you craft an unforgettable Colorado elopement package, from design to celebration, that captures the spirit of your love and the thrill of adventure with a photography collection that will bring you elation forever!
If you aren’t sold based on the paragraph you just read, let’s give you a little more to consider. Eloping in Colorado offers natural beauty comparable to some of the most beautiful destinations in the world and also the freedom to make a stress-free wedding a reality (ease of marriage based on state laws). Envision a snowy winter ceremony in the San Juan Mountains, a summer sunset vow exchange overlooking a turquoise alpine lake, or a golden hour desert elopement surrounded by red sandstone walls; you’ll find those views here.
And the best part? You don’t need an officiant. Colorado is one of the few states where you can self-solemnize, meaning you can marry yourselves without anyone else present! Of course, we understand if you still want an officiant, and we are registered officiants in case you want us to take care of that part for you!
