href=\"https:\/\/www.dictionary.com\/browse\/elopement\">The dictionary<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/span> defines an elopement as an act or an instance running off secretly to be married. Well, I\u2019ll let you in on a little secret; Times are changing! While that is still the official term for elopement; I know for a fact that it\u2019s more than that.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Eloping doesn\u2019t just mean getting married in secret anymore. I define an elopement as a couple taking control of their own wedding day. They create their own traditions and plan a day that is truly meaningful, memorable, and authentic to them. This could mean taking a helicopter to the top of a glacier in Alaska and getting married with mountain views for miles, or it could mean a simple backyard wedding with your dogs signing your marriage license with their paw print. In some cases, guests may attend which turns the event into more of an intimate wedding ceremony (or small wedding). I typically categorize intimate weddings as 20 guests or less, but I also feel these terms are subjective.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are many different types of elopements. City elopements, desert elopements, and I bet there\u2019s even a market for underwater elopements. We\u2019re not here to talk about that, as we\u2019re here to talk about mountain elopements.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mountain elopements and intimate weddings are my absolute favorite. There\u2019s something magical that happens when you\u2019re standing next to a bright blue turquoise lake with a 13,000-foot mountain towering over you. That\u2019s why I made photographing couples in the mountains my specialty.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So if you\u2019re up for a little hiking, off-roading, and adventuring to see a beautiful view then a mountain elopement may be exactly what you\u2019re looking for. If you\u2019re thinking this might be right for you, then it\u2019s very important that you plan ahead, come over-prepared, and have multiple backup plans. You never know what the mountains will throw at you!<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-d0d6d9b elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"d0d6d9b\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-74d6d326\" data-id=\"74d6d326\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-789ec144 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"789ec144\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.paigeweberphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/mountain-elopement-near-ridgway-1-683x1024.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"Bride and groom stand together on a rock at sunrise.

Once you confirm the agency you should be able to search online for their email or phone number online.

If you haven\u2019t visited high elevations before then you may not know that weather can be extremely unpredictable and can turn in an instant. In Colorado, you may get snow on top of a mountain at 14,000 feet in June or July. It all depends on your elevation. So think about your ideal weather, and then do some online research to determine what month would be the best in that location. You will want to look at the overall average temperature as well as the amount of precipitation to expect. <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.currentresults.com\/Weather\/US\/weather-averages-index.php\">Start here by looking at weather by state, city, or town.<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-63db3b5 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"63db3b5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\n\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>PRO TIP:<\/strong> Typically my favorite time of the year to be in the mountains is during the mid-summer when the wildflowers are at peak season.

In fact, look at that mud as a badge of honor. A token of your wedding day to bring home with you.

People love being outside and escaping technology more than ever before. If you\u2019re the kind of person that loves to spend all their free time camping, hiking, or even just being outside then you\u2019re probably thinking of planning an elopement or small intimate wedding somewhere in nature. I want you to know that that is 100% possible, and don\u2019t let anyone make you feel guilty for your choices.
