Boy do I have a story for you! Ilina and Garrett’s Lodge at Breckenridge wedding was one for the books! So we began the day with the first look outside of the lodge. Their first look was so sweet! We then headed over to the gondola and took the lift up to the top of the mountain for some epic Breckenridge bride and groom portraits! We knew we were going to be fighting some rain, but we brought umbrellas and went for it anyway! Anything for some incredible Colorado mountain bride and groom portraits right?!
So the rain starts when we we’re getting off the lift, then it lets up and the sun even comes out. We shoot some incredible stunning portraits on the top of the mountain in Breckenridge. Next thing we know, someone who works at the lift walks by and tells us that lightning just struck 20 miles away, and if it strikes within 15 miles, they have to shut down the lift. And it could take 1.5 hrs to get back down! So we’re ready to wrap this up. Less than a minute later, someone else walks by and said it struck within 15 miles and so the lift is shut down! Eek! We need to get Ilina and Garrett down the mountain for their Lodge at Breckenridge wedding ceremony!
Thankfully there weren’t many people up on the mountain, so we were able to get on the first shuttle down. It delayed us a little, bit thankfully we had plenty of time built in for mountain portraits. So we were fine! Our next stop was the iconic Sapphire Point Overlook at Lake Dillon. Ilina loves this spot and the stunning mountain and lake views!
Lodge at Breckenridge Wedding
Next on the journey was their Lodge at Breckenridge wedding ceremony with their closest fiends and family! This venue has incredible mountain views surrounding it. It quickly became one of my favorite Breckenridge Colorado wedding venues! Their ceremony was absolutely incredible. Family and friends laughed and cried and the love and support for these two was palpable! Ilina and Garrett even did a surprise performance of a Backstreet Boys song after their first dance! I’m telling you, these two are incredible!
Ilina and Garrett, thank you for trusting me with the honor of being your Lodge at Breckenridge wedding photographer!
Enjoy my faves from this epic Breckenridge wedding day!
