Two Brides, Two Corgis, Two Days And A Whole Lot Of Mountain Magic!
Andie and Maci came to Colorado with their two adorable corgis to get married among the majesty of Ouray’s 14 000′ peaks, and it was nothing short of magical.

Andie and Maci fought HARD to be standing face to face in the Ouray mountains, on a moody August morning, ready to share their vows with one another.
Their original plans to get married in the Moab desert in May were foiled when Maci’s military career forced a reschedule. And then, just TEN DAYS BEFORE their new date, they neeeeearly had to reschedule a second time as more work commitments arose. Add to that the fact that Maci couldn’t arrive until midnight the night before their sunrise start, and their beloved Corgi, Da Vinci, almost couldn’t make it due to health concerns, and it was all a rather stressful lead up as you can imagine.
And yet, in that moment, as they spoke words direct from the heart and committed to forever, they were enveloped in peace and serenity. Time stood still, and nothing else and no one else existed: just them and their love. (Ok, and Da Vinci’s younger brother Duncan chewing on the flowers!).
We enjoyed two incredible days celebrating Andie and Maci, exploring all of our favorite locations in Ouray. From hiking around to all the best vantage points, tucking into a picnic, enjoying a yummy dinner cooked by their private chef whilst snuggled up in their PJs, playing with their adorable doggos and dancing in the rain… These two made memories that will be etched into their minds forevermore.
And THAT, friends, is what elopements are all about.
