“When we got engaged, we knew right away that the traditional wedding route wasn’t for us. We wanted something that felt true to who we are and that’s when we started searching for an elopement team who would really understand our vision. After what felt like endless scrolling, we found Alpine Vows…and everything clicked. From our very first video call with Bailee and Jake, we felt an instant connection. They didn’t just listen to our ideas, they understood the heart behind them, even the things we didn’t put into words. It felt like they could see the exact day we had been dreaming of and bring it to life.
What makes them so special is that, even though they do this every single day, the wedding magic never fades for them. They show up to each wedding with the same joy, passion, and excitement as if it’s their very first. Bailee especially has the biggest heart…I’ll never forget glancing over at her during our ceremony and seeing tears streaming down her face. That’s how deeply she cares. It’s not just a job to her or to Jake…it’s who they are. We even had to joke with Bailee that every wedding and every couple can’t be her favorite…but I truly believe her when she says that all of them are!
And when it comes to talent? They’re remarkable. Bailee and Jake see beauty in places most people would miss. They notice the smallest details-the light shifting through the trees, the perfect angle, the hidden trail that leads to the dream spot you didn’t even know you wanted. They know Colorado like home and somehow manage to match couples to locations as if they were always meant to be there. We never would have chosen Brainard Lake ourselves, but they guided us there…and it was exactly what we had been searching for without even realizing it.
If you’re reading this, you might be wondering the same things we did: Will it feel awkward spending our day with strangers? Will they get us? Will they make us feel comfortable? Let me just say — yes, yes, and YES. Spending the day with Bailee and Jake felt like hanging out with friends we’d known forever. They made us laugh, kept us calm, and somehow made being in front of the camera (which is so not our natural state) feel easy and fun. From the first emails to the late-night texts to the countless calls, they took the time to know us…really know us…and made our experience feel uniquely ours.
Choosing them was one of the best decisions we made. Not only did we get breathtaking photos and video, but we also gained two incredible friends. We’ll forever be grateful for them, their talent, and the way they poured so much love into our day. If you’re lucky enough to work with Bailee and Jake, trust me you’re in for something truly unforgettable! -The Lawrence’s”
