Boulder Waterfall Elopement | Giedre + Brooke
Posted On | June 27, 2022
Giedre and Brooke are two humans who truly embraced creating a wedding day that truly felt like themselves.
We started planning their day around sunset photos, but as we got into the details and who these two truly are at the core, they decided that sunrise was a truer expression of their relationship.
Giedre and Brooke love to run races together (heck, they are even doing a week+ trailrunning trip through Canada for their honeymoon!). Part of race days is waking up before the sun to lace up your shoes and start running. Their other favorite ritual is getting up early for a morning walk with their coffee and their dogs before they start their workday.
So we shifted their wedding plan to hike up to a lookout at sunrise. And, DAMN, I’ve never seen so many incredible golden colors from a sunrise last that long. These two shared special presents with each other, drank coffee, caught up on life, and soaked in a glowy, peaceful morning.
After their private sunrise and exploring the mountains and a waterfall near Boulder, we headed back to their rental home. Overlooking a mountain lake, Brooke’s best friend officiated and family stood nearby and witnessed their personal vows to each other.
Their morning ended with a private chef who cooked up their favorite brunch – eggs benedict for Brooke and savory waffles for Giedre (complete with a nod to Giedre’s Lithuanian roots with potato latkes and saltibarsciai).
Thank you, you two, for staying true to yourselves on your wedding day and making it exactly how you wanted it. What a MAGICAL morning!
