Let’s Elope in Moab, Utah | Vows on the Edge

Moab has a history of being one of the most romantic escapes for adventure couples in love.  The same held true for this gorgeous couple who eloped on the edge of the red rocks overlooking one of the most amazing views in the West.

Our day started when we woke up at 4AM on Sunday, April 3rd, 2022. We messed around a bit within our camp ground setting up the jet-boil and making some coffee and oatmeal before heading out to Dead Horse Point State park for the elopement.

Lovebirds in Moab

When we arrived it was COLD and it was still so dark you could see stars. Around 6:45 AM the sun started to peek over the horizon and mountains and we started the process! We captured beautiful sunrise photos and following the sunrise photos, we held a small ceremony!

After the ceremony we left the state park and made our way back to the campsite where we indulged in super fun retro van photos!
