A ski trip turned into an engagement trip for this couple in Steamboat, Colorado. Remy and Sara came to all the way to Colorado from Columbus, Ohio. These two come out west to ski several times a year. This year was their first time in Steamboat Springs and skiing at Steamboat Resort!
For the proposal, Remy lead Sarah over to a gorgeous spot overlooking the mountains. Right before they got to this spot a huge cloud had come by and was blocking the mountain view that we had chosen the spot for. By the time they arrived, the clouds parted and the mountain view opened up! Remy popped the question and of course, Sara said yes! They both were so thrilled and had the best smiles on their faces!
Ski & Snowboard Proposal Steamboat Colorado
After Sara said yes, I skied along with them for a few runs. In a span of a few hours, the weather went from cloudy to snowy, to sunny, so we experienced it all during our time together! To end their ski and snowboard proposal session, Remy and Sarah nestled up in some trees and popped a bottle of champagne to celebrate!
After he proposed Sara said, "Steamboat is my new favorite mountain!" Steamboat will be a memorable place for Remy and Sarah from now on! It was so much fun to photograph this Steamboat ski proposal with an adventurous and upbeat couple!
How to Propose while Skiing at Steamboat Ski Resort
Steamboat is one of the largest ski resorts in Colorado with a wide variety of trails for beginners to experts. Being tucked in the northwest corner of Colorado, Steamboat Springs is about a 3 hour drive from Denver. It’s a slightly longer drive than other popular Colorado ski resorts, but it’s beyond worth it! Skiing at Steamboat is always an amazing experience! And If you love tree runs, Steamboat is known for it’s amazing powder-filled tree skiing!
With all of my clients planning to propose, I usually recommend:
Propose on a weekday. Ski resorts are typically less busy on weekdays with the exception of any holidays (like Christmas, New Years, and Spring Break).
Propose in the morning. There will be less people to work around in your ski photos if you pop the question earlier in the day!
