Jordyn + Darian | Idaho Springs Elopement | Denver Wedding Photographer

Jun 18, 2022

I think the high temperature on Jordyn and Darian’s wedding day was in the upper 30’s with blisteringly cold winds. Although it was cold, the sun came out just for these two as they said their “I Do’s”. It was a lovely day!

Darian and Jordyn chose a beautiful, unique Idaho Springs Airbnb for their elopement. The Airbnb was so secluded that the road was too steep, even for our AWD vehicle to make it up and down safely. The owner came to pick us up when we arrived for photos. At the end of the evening, Darian took us back to our vehicle in a Polaris Side by Side up the steep hill. Talk about an awesome adventure for this Denver wedding photographer! Be sure to check out all these awesome Colorado Airbnbs if you’re looking to plan something similar. Just make sure to check the rules for each specific place!

I love that they spent the day with only each other, just going their separate ways to get dressed before their first look. Darian even helped Jordyn with her hair! Be sure to check out those adorable photos. After getting dressed, they had their emotional first look on the deck. Just moments later, they held their ceremony on that same deck. Taking breaks only when the wind howled too loud that they couldn’t hear each other, they lovingly promised forever overlooking the gorgeous Idaho Springs forest. After portraits, we headed inside not only to warm up but to enjoy delicious dessert made by the groom’s mother, make a toast with fantastic champagne and sign the marriage license. The new Mr and Mrs even played some of their favorite board games together!

It was an incredible honor to be a part of this day. Mr. and Mrs. Jefferson, congratulations on your marriage. Cheers to many years of wedded bliss!
