Romantic Yosemite Elopement: Rayne + Michael

Romantic Yosemite Elopement: Rayne + Michael

via

Rayne + Michael live in Denver, Colorado, but chose to elopement in, arguably, one of the most beautiful locations imaginable: Yosemite. For this duo, who loves the mountains and going on adventurous hiking + biking trips, the goal for their day was to be as spontaneous as possible, without any solid plans standing in their way.

From the epic views to the relaxed + intimate vibe, we're pretty sure you're about to find yourselves majorly inspired - and dreaming of a destination elopement or wedding yourself! Let's see the day unfold in Tyler Branch 's stunning captures below...

Rayne is such a stunner, right?! She wore the 'Chante' dress by Houghton and it seriously feels like it was made just for her!

Even though they chose to elope, R + M still wanted to honor their close friends by inviting them to be members of their bridal party. We love Rayne's BFF's BHLDN dresses. A perfect match for the nature-filled surroundings!

On their sweet, intimate ceremony, Rayne tells us, We had Katie, my best friend from undergrad who introduced us (at a concert in 2011) marry us. She read quotes from John Muir that fit our love for each other & nature, and our surroundings perfectly.

This sweet, intimate tablescape came together beautifully thanks to the talent of Sweet Dreams Cakery Wedding Flowers, who provided both the lovely florals and yummy-looking dripping cake!

A million and one heart eyes for Rayne's Anna Sheffield ring! SO gorgeous.

Elope! Don't plan! Have fun!
