“An experience unlike any other! Truly, once in a lifetime. Chad and Vanessa’s attention to little details, their in-depth research for a dream location and their laidback and flexible personalities made the whole process so wonderful. Chad and Vanessa’s huge hearts and calm demeanors make these two a dream team! We feel we have gained two worldly and exceptional friends. We cannot wait to get out and explore together when our (dirt) paths cross again!”

We always wanted a small wedding out somewhere beautiful in the world. The problem was, there are many more beautiful places than Minnesota, where we live. Planning a wedding half way across the country was nerve wracking, challenging, and honestly didn’t seem like the best idea. Well, it was. Chad and Vanessa made our day incredible and unforgettable. From picking gorgeous locations within Canyonlands National Park, to helping us spend more time with our family by picking up our wedding cake, to the little things like helping carry our stuff and being a joy to be around, they were nothing short of perfect. Don’t even get me started on the photos. They are mind bogglingly beautiful. They are as talented as they are kind and good hearted people.

Vanessa and Chad made our elopement day more incredible and personal than we could’ve ever dreamt up ourselves. Every step of the planning process, they listened to us and offered suggestions to make the day not generically “insta-perfect”, but perfect for us. We laughed until we cried, cherished every bit of the full day adventure, and walked away with beautiful photos that we can’t believe are of us. Vanessa and Chad are some of the dopest, down to earth human souls we’ve had the pleasure of meeting and total professionals at the same time.

“We LOVED working with Chad and Vanessa! They could not be a cooler couple to hang out with and share the day. From the first conversation to the photo album delivery, they had great communication and were so authentic throughout. We truly felt connected to their fun, energetic and adventurous spirits right off the bat. These two made us feel so comfortable and calm during the whole experience. We are forever thankful for our memories and photos but even more grateful for the friendship that has come out of this experience"

Chad and Vanessa took all of our anxieties (of which I had many) and worries away. It’s not easy to plan an elopement across the country but The Outlovers made it so easy for us. They are communicative, friendly, professional and all around awesome. The scouting/planning packet they sent was so detailed and informative; they also helped manage expectations with what we had in mind which made the day-of so perfect and easy. They put my type-A brain at ease. The pictures are stunning and captured all the beauty, peace and joy of the day.

Chad and Vanessa went above and beyond our expectations for our special wedding day. The communication with these guys is unreal - it helps those worrisome anxiety butterflies for sure! These two do their RESEARCH!!! They scouted areas that matched our scenery in ours heads and found the perfect one for us. We were SO comfortable with Chad and Vanessa. It felt like we were meeting up with old friends and didn’t skip a beat! I truly have no words for truly how much fun our wedding day was. The amount of stress and pressure that we didn’t feel is sort of hilarious. The day felt so freeing and so right.
