Cassie and Earl - Elopement below Emigrant Peak in Paradise Valley

After each saying they would not marry again, Earl and Cassie found each other and knew that they were meant to be together. Once Earl proposed, Cassie had her heart set on getting married surrounded by the beautiful mountains of Montana.  She saw photos of Emigrant Peak and decided that was the one! They came up with Cassie's daughters to West Yellowstone, and then drove over on April 2nd for the ceremony.  

We used my studio in the Emerson Center for them get ready. Early surprised Cassie with a ring she wasn't expecting. The  day was absolutely beautiful and there wasn't even any wind, which for Paradise Valley in April is pretty much a miracle.  We chose a spot on public land for the ceremony and afterwards took the back road to Chico, where we explored the hills above and they had their cake and dinner.

These two are sweet souls, and I'm grateful to know them and help them remember their day.
