“Alec and I met in college in Oklahoma, and after just four months of dating, he got a job offer in Utah. He told me moving with him would be the adventure of a lifetime—and somehow, I knew he was right! So we took the chance on love, not a long-distance relationship. Since making that leap, we’ve explored so many national parks, fallen in love with hiking, and learned to snowboard together. Two years after settling into our new life, he proposed! I was obviously so excited. When it came time to plan our wedding, we chose March so our wedding anniversary would fall on the same day we started dating. We love the simple things. We decided to read our vows in the Utah mountains, where our relationship had truly grown and flourished after our move. Alec was a little unsure about an outdoor elopement in unpredictable March weather, but the moment was absolutely perfect—just as we began reading our vows, snow started to fall softly around us. It felt like a scene from a movie. Bree Smith Photography captured that moment so perfectly.”
