Top 3 Places to Elope in Colorado
Colorado Elopement Guide
If you’re thinking about eloping, it can be overwhelming to decide on a location. I mean, there’s a whole world out there - literally! Our company specializes in elopements in western Colorado, so of course we are biased to this area. But we have good reason! Western Colorado has something to fit just about everyone’s checkboxes. Within a geographical area of just a few hundred miles, there are 14,000-foot peaks, meadows of (summer) wildflowers, waterfalls, desert red rock formations, turquoise alpine lakes, winter ski slopes, forests of pine & aspen trees, and a canyon so deep, it’s only second to the Grand Canyon. The natural beauty here is mind-blowing, and it’s the main reason we originally moved here.
Our consensus for the best places to elope in Colorado are the towns of Telluride, Ouray, and Ridgway. Taking into consideration 1) variety of easily accessible ceremony locations, 2) lodging options, 3) honeymoon activities, and 4) scenic views. These towns have the best locations for adventure elopements in the whole state. They may not be household names like Breckenridge, Denver or Rocky Mountain National Park, but they are more laid back and have MUCH better mountain views for eloping.
We have created helpful Elopement Guides for all three of these towns, explaining how to elope there, the best months to elope, and photos of each town’s ceremony locations! Click below to link to each town’s Elopement Guide:
