Leah and Stanley’s Breckenridge, CO elopement day was one that 100% came full circle!
The pair met each other in person for the first time at 11:00 am at a coffee shop the Sunday before Thanksgiving after matching on Bumble. Their connection was immediate, and when Stanley swore to his cousin four months into their relationship that he was going to marry Leah, he made good on that promise!
The two spent a slow morning getting ready to finally tie the knot at an adorable A-frame exactly three years after their first date. After sharing their first look on the porch, they took their place overlooking a gorgeous valley and exchanged vows at 11:00 am. To stay in line with tradition, they then headed to a cozy coffee shop to share their first brunch as husband and wife and reminisce about where it all began!
Since Leah and Stanley are both close to their families, they hopped on to Zoom for their virtual reception after having kept their elopement a secret until the very last minute. Sharing a bourbon toast, cupcakes, and a virtual dance party, they were able to have the elopement of their dreams while still including those closest to them!
After many toasts and happy tears, we headed up a pass to end the day watching the sunset and the moon rise over the mountains.
Leah and Stanley’s day was SO unique to who they are, and it was a joy to be able to celebrate with them in such a meaningful way! Plus, coffee is never a bad idea on your elopement day!
