How to Propose While Skiing
Proposing to the one you love is an incredible experience in itself, and when you are on top of a mountain it is even more magical! When it comes to proposing while skiing or snowboarding, there are a few factors to keep in mind. Below you’ll find some guidance on how to propose on your ski trip and also coordinate with a photographer to have the moment captured.
Why You Should Plan Your Ski Elopement on a Weekday
Imagine this- you arrive at the mountain and park only steps away from the gondola. You ski or snowboard on a mountain with only a few other people around. You have the whole trail to yourself. As soon as you get to the bottom, you ski right through to the lift and don’t have to share your chair with strangers. It’s just you, your partner, and the mountain. You talk, you snuggle, and enjoy the view until you get to the top for another perfect run.
How wonderful does that sound? Planning your elopement on a weekday allows you certain conveniences that are hard to come by over the weekend.

Winter Park Ski + Snowboard Elopement | Carissa + Aaron
Carissa and Aaron are childhood sweethearts from Oklahoma who recently moved to Colorado because of their love of skiing. Aaron even proposed to Carissa on a family ski trip to Wolf Creek.
We took their ski and snowboard wedding photos at Winter Park on a Friday, and it was a beautiful bluebird day. It was so much fun to see people who were so excited to witness a bride and groom skiing and snowboarding. Carissa + Aaron got so many congratulations’ and cheers from the other skiers and from some pumped-up lift operators.
It was such an awesome, beautiful day. We skied a few runs and ended with Carissa and Aaron toasting some champagne at the lodge. Check out some photos from their day below!
