If you’re the kind of couple that would rather ditch the ‘Instagram hotspots’ in favor of something more remote and unique, then this is the package for you!
You’ll base yourselves in the teeny little town of Hanksville, in the absolute heart of the remote Utah desert. All those wild west movies you watched as a kid? Yeah, you’re going to be LIVING in one!
You’ll begin your day long before the birds start chirping, with a sunrise first look at a dramatic viewpoint in Goblin Valley State Park. It’s a hidden gem location where you rarely see another soul, allowing you to soak in the magic peacefully, existing in your own little bubble.
You’ll wander around the ‘hoodoos’ and ‘goblins’, mesmerized by the other-worldly landscape and dwarfed by its scale.
Nestled amongst the red rocks, in a space of intimacy and privacy, you’ll share vows and commit your lives to one another.
Midday offers a natural pause. You will step away from the cameras, enjoy lunch, decompress, and rest before the second chapter of the day begins.
Later in the day, you’ll disappear down a dirt track until you find yourselves on the Moon… At least, that’s what it will feel like! The landscape here has to be seen to be believed.
To wrap up the day, you’ll take a short hike out into what seems like vast nothingness… Until you turn a corner and are all of a sudden met with spectacular views of a 100’ towering rock spire, bursting up from nowhere and piercing the blue sky above.
As the sun sets below the horizon and the landscape glows in the final light of the day, you can celebrate in whatever way feels most authentic to you. Perhaps a first dance with not another soul around, maybe a picnic with charcuterie and champagne, or it might be that you’d simply like to tuck into pizza and beers.
As the air begins to cool, the day comes to a quiet close. You will find yourselves smiling at each other, taking in the stillness, and wondering how something this beautiful can feel so real.
You’ll slowly meander your way back to the trailhead under the sparkling night sky.
This is what elopement dreams are made of.
