Their journey together began in grad school, where their shared ambitions and dreams set the stage for a love story that would lead them to one of the most memorable days of their lives.

The proposal was nothing short of magical. While backpacking and hiking in the Indian Peak Wilderness, Mark chose a picturesque alpine lake, one of their favorite spots, to pop the question. It was a moment that perfectly encapsulated their shared love for adventure and the great outdoors.

Estes Park holds a special place in Morgan and Mark’s hearts, making it the natural choice for their wedding.

Morgan and Mark were charmed by their meeting with Beth and were thoroughly impressed with the tasting session, which solidified their decision.

The theme of their wedding was inspired by a fall day in the mountains, reminiscent of the season when Mark proposed. The autumnal hues and the crisp mountain air created a setting that was both intimate and breathtaking, making their special day even more meaningful.

One of the standout memories for Morgan and Mark was the rehearsal, which was filled with laughter and joy. Having their friends and family stay at the lodge added an extra layer of fun and camaraderie, turning the celebration into a cherished gathering of loved ones.

The highlight for many was the incredible food, which received rave reviews from everyone in attendance. The culinary delights added an extra touch of excellence to the day, leaving a lasting impression on all who were there.
