Braydon + Emily | Maroon Bells Wedding

Emily and Braydon’s September Maroon Bells wedding was magical. They chose the perfect location – no wonder it’s the most photographed location in all of Colorado!

Emily + Braydon are close friends of mine. They met on a little app called Bumble. It may have been the perfect profile picture they each had. But, if I had to guess, these two connected based on the fact that they both love being outdoors every chance they get.

If they’re not working, they are planning their next weekend getaway to a new state. Or leaving work early on a Friday afternoon to go on a dirtbiking and camping trip. Or maybe they’re backpacking through the Colorado mountains. (Ya see why we’re friends, now?).

In early 2018, Emily and Braydon hit the road for 6 months, road-tripping through Alaska. During that trip, Braydon proposed to Emily at the base of a glacier. Their pup, Ryder, stood by cheering his humans on. On their road-trip back from this adventure, Emily got the idea of having a Maroon Bells wedding. Maroon Bells was one of their favorite backpacking trips together.

Enjoy every image from their Maroon Bells wedding.
