Maggie & Jimi traveled in from Montana for this intimate elopement in the Grand Tetons. We decided on Cascade Canyon turnout for the mountain backdrop and easy accessibility. The morning was comfortable and beautiful as these two exchanged vows in the morning light.

The sun came up and the celebration began. We wandered through the sagebrush meadow, laughing and taking in the sunlight. Maggie infused her personality into her wedding day attire by including a yellow coat to accessorize and a bouquet that complimented the aspen trees in autumn.

After the morning sunrise ceremony, we planned to head to a higher point in the park for a stunning view. We headed up to Jackson Point Overlook for a short walk and to explore somewhere new.
