Elopement Packages Colorado: When Should I Elope To Colorado?

I’m not sure there’s ever a bad time to plan Colorado elopements, but there are times that could be thought of as more optimal. Each season in the State brings something new, which as an adventurer and photographer is mind-blowingly cool. The State is known for erratic weather. If you struggle in the cold, maybe a mountain in winter isn’t the best place to elope in Colorado for you. My elopement wedding packages in Colorado can be booked year-round so have a look at what each season could offer and see which one offers you the most of what you want.

Fall Colorado Elopement

Being adventurous outdoor types, fall is a magical time to schedule all-inclusive elopement packages in Colorado. The landscape is changing color with Aspen trees changing from green to beautiful yellows, oranges, golds, and warm reds. There are still tons of activities to enjoy. If you like beer, Oktoberfest hits the city of Denver, you can take romantic train rides, experience festivals, go on hikes or take scenic drives, or even visit an Elk farm.

Spring Colorado Elopement

Elopement spots in Colorado offer couples slightly milder weather with an average of 78ยฐF. With the warmer weather comes the early spring wildflowers, including bright yellow violets, the pink Western Spring Beauty, and the common Starlilly. The last of the winter snow still hangs around making the trails quite muddy, so if you want dry hiking trails, it’s best to target your Colorado elopement package for mid-late June.

Summer Colorado Elopement

If you’re not into snow, getting eloped in Colorado in summertime offers the best all-around package. The days are nice and warm and the nighttime temperatures are comfortable, and with clear skies, stargazing is at its best, good enough to see the Milky Way!

Wildflowers are hitting their peak with Gentian, Lupine, Elephant Head, and Indian Paintbrushes washing the landscape. You’re also spoilt for choice when it comes to activities at places to get eloped in Colorado with ATVs, kayaking, canoeing, jeep riding, and picnicking all accessible.

Winter Colorado Elopement

From my point of view, a Colorado winter elopement is the perfect choice for couples who want epic backdrops for their wedding ceremony and love outdoor activities involving snow. The snow-capped high peaks are absolutely stunning and there are so many Colorado mountain elopement locations to choose from. The best snow is between February and March and is perfect for skiing, snowboarding, snowshoeing, and enjoying a log cabin retreat.

WEEKDAY OR WEEKEND

If you can help it, elope on a weekday! Trust me, trails and mountain towns get busy during the weekends because all the locals and tourists are out and about having fun. The best time to get married, heck even to just have a regular old adventure, is during the weekday. Youโ€™ll have far fewer people to contend with, and also might even have lower costs!

“This is the hardest review I ever had to write. Only because I have so many great things I can say about Adam @Adventure Amore. First I will say to stop looking around for the perfect photographer! Adam is the one! Adam gave his all to find out who we are, our likes and dislikes, what we pictured on our day and how WE wanted it to be. With all honesty he made our day amazing.” – Eugene & Angela

Colorado Elopement FAQs

My Colorado mountain elopement packages will give you an incredible choice of insanely beautiful elopement venues to choose from. Probably the most famous of all would be Aspen. Great all-year-round views, and world-class skiing, hiking, and mountain biking. Aspen is a sought-after location but can be a bit of a wallet kicker. Rocky Mountain National Park is another great place to elope in Colorado and if you’re having wedding guests fly in and want to keep logistics easy and budget-friendly, Lookout Mountain in Denver and Breckenridge are also well worth considering.

I don’t think there’s a bad time of year to elope in Colorado, but there is something magical about the place in winter. With crisp fresh air, fresh snowfall, and dreamy backdrops, a Colorado winter elopement creates a deeply romantic atmosphere. You’ll find the most snowfall between February and March which covers the high mountain peaks. It can get a little chilly though at altitude so wrap up warm and bring plenty of appropriate clothing for hikes and outdoor activities.

It’s better to take too much than not enough, right? I’ve spent plenty of time at many different Colorado elopement locations, and what I’ve learned is that you need layers. You’ll be so much more comfortable if you need to remove a layer or two because you get warm rather than needing an extra layer you don’t have. If you plan on hiking or spending long periods in the snow, take plenty of warm socks and good comfortable shoes or hiking boots.

My Colorado all-inclusive elopement packages are what you want them to be. It’s your wedding day and you can pick and choose what you do and where you go. I’ll be there to capture the best hi-res images that you can look back on in years to come. My love as a photographer and Colorado elopement planner is to give you the day you want and deserve. I can offer advice on destinations, timelines, and activities to help relieve the strain of bringing it all together.

Our Colorado elopement packages open the doors to our intimate knowledge of the best elopement places in Colorado, the logistics of traveling between them, and have vendors we can suggest to take care of details like catering, floral arrangement, hair and makeup, and officiating. The biggest part of my role is to remove any worry and stress from your wedding day leaving you free to be in the moment with the person you love and have fun, laugh, cry, and be unapologetically you!

On average, a Colorado adventure elopement will cost you about 60-70% less than your traditional white wedding. Much of the cost of a traditional wedding goes on sending invites and feeding family you haven’t spoken to in twenty years and won’t speak to again after your reception. You can create small elopement packages in Colorado for less than $8,000. I find the average couple is spending around $10-11,000, and you can have an all-out luxury wedding and head to the best elopement locations in Colorado for about $15,000.

Part of the reason National Parks, BLM, and State Parks require eloping couples to get a permit is so they can monitor the number of people entering. The upkeep of the lands should be at the forefront of everyone’s thoughts as the ecosystems in these spaces are incredibly delicate and must be taken care of for future generations to benefit from and following these principles helps me offer the best elopement packages.

To elope in Colorado, which is truly a stunning part of the world, brings us back to nature, and we should all make a conscious effort to keep it this way. By following a few basic measures we can ensure the best places in Colorado to elope stay that way. Do some research before you travel and learn the regulations. Camp on durable surfaces and dispose of litter and waste responsibly. Leave what you find, minimize the impact of campfires, respect all wildlife, and always show consideration to other visitors during elopements. Colorado is a true gift to everyone who visits and we must ensure it stays that way.
