Colorado Elopement Location: Boulder Mountain Top

The Kiss. On the peak of our Boulder mountain top location.


The Mountain Top That’s Been In Your Mind’s Eye

Updated For 2023

If you’ve always had the image of getting married on a mountain top with granite rocks, beautiful pines and views for miles, this is a quintessential mountain top experience. Even better, it’s super easy to get to - a five minute walk.

Something about this spot has magic in it - you walk a short distance on a dirt trail through a Ponderosa Pine forest, but in that time you feel like you’ve reached the heart of the mountains. There are so many hidden gem nooks to have a ceremony that feels tucked away while at the same time on top of the world, and to get great photos to capture the magic of the day. Read on for all the intel!

With love,
Officiant Lisa

All The Deets

Availability: Accessible May 1st through October 30th, with mid-June through early October being ideal for weather.

Group Size: Just the two of you, or bring up to 10 guests with you.

The Drive: A 25-minute drive from downtown Boulder on a twisting, scenic, well-paved road with beautiful views as it takes you up the mountain.

The Walk: It’s a simple five-minute walk/hike from parking lot to the spot. Even though it’s a short walk, we require hiking shoes or sneakers since it’s still an uneven dirt trail and even ladies wedges or men’s dress shoes can slip. If you want to wear fancy wedding shoes, you can change into them at the site :)

Permit: Commercial permit required, and it's included in your package.
