There aren’t enough words to describe how much Joey and I adored this day! From the beginning, Courtney and Andrew were wonderful to work with, just all around fantastic humans. They wanted a wedding that was focused on each other and their loved ones, so they invited their close family and friends for a destination wedding weekend in Zion. They all stayed at Zion Mountain Ranch— a perfect little cabin retreat tucked outside of Zion National Park. December weddings in Zion are pure magic. The air is crisp and cold and I I will forever be obsessed with cabin light for getting ready photos. Even with unexpected rain, snow, and mud, the talented team at Forevermore Events put together the most beautiful weekend filled with so much joy and love. We could stop smiling at this one and even shed a few tears.
The weekend started with Joey and I meeting up with Courtney and Andrew for some pre-wedding photos at Canyon Overlook in Zion National Park. They wanted the first time they say each other in their wedding attire to be when Courtney walked down the aisle, so we discussed some options and decided to do their photoshoot in semi-formal attire instead! It made the photos the day before less stressful and more of a fun pre-wedding outing before their rehearsal dinner back at the ranch. It was cold but these two were troopers! We got some gorgeous, fun photos at sunset and then hiked back down the mountain for the rehearsal dinner.
The next morning, Joey and I woke up before sunrise for a quiet walk of our own through the park at dawn. We shot some film and enjoyed a beautiful winter morning in our favorite place! Then we headed up the mountain for Courtney and Andrew’s beautiful day.
I mentioned this earlier, but cabin light on a cloudy day is my absolute favorite. The weather kept threatening to pour but
