Intimate Forest Elopement Ideas
This Forest Elopement Is Peak Romance — and the Couple Enjoyed Every Minute of It!

Last fall, Hannah and Matthew eloped in the serene mountains of Idaho Springs, CO. They started their big day in a cozy cabin tucked away in a coniferous forest along a river — an amazing way to start their big day! After they got ready, they had their first look outside their cabin. Matthew was beaming with joy when he saw Hannah in a halter wedding gown with lace detailing.
After their first-look photos, they drove into the woods until their found a beautiful spot under the trees where they had their self-solemnizing ceremony and became husband and wife! They kept moving and found a lovely little spot for their first dance as newlyweds. They opened a special bottle of wine for the occasion and enjoyed the gorgeous view of the sunset. They ended the day in a cozy pub where they did a beer tasting and basked in their happiness.
Photographer Courtney Blankers was there to capture the amazing day. The photos are stunning, and she caught some candid moments of the happy couple as they danced and laughed on the day. The sun also peeked through the trees and created a stunning backdrop for this enchanting elopement. Keep reading to see these photos!
