As a Utah elopement photographer I do everything in my power to make your big day as stress free as possible! From researching local cuisines, to knowing the land and scenery for your wedding photos. And a huge part of your day is your elopement timeline. With a structured timeline you will be sure to stay on track, get to do and see everything you have been dreaming of, as well as reduce stress! Here are a few examples for my Moab couples.
Sunrise Schedule
If you are an early riser, then I definitely recommend a sunrise schedule! There is something quiet and sacred about the morning hours in Moab. It is still rather cool from the night before and the glow from the sun over the red rocks is just fantastic!
3am – Hair & Makeup
5am – Travel Time
6am – First Look/Ceremony & Exploring/Photo Session
8am – Optional Second Location of Exploring/Photos
10am – Brunch/Celebration
Sunset Schedule
On the other hand, if you are not ready to rise with the sun and would rather stay up late, consider a sunset schedule. You will still get a beautiful glow from golden hour! And you will have a more relaxed morning as this elopement timeline doesn’t begin until after noon.
1pm – Hair & Makeup
3pm – Travel Time
4pm – First Look & Exploring/Photo Session
6pm – Ceremony & Portraits
7pm – Sunset Exploration/Photo Session
8pm – Head back to town
Split Full Day Schedule
I love getting to spend the entire day with my couples as a Utah elopement photographer. A split day schedule is wonderful to document your entire elopement. From the tender moment of getting ready, to the big events like your ceremony. Not to mention, you will get so many images in your gallery that will tell the story of the entire day!
3am – Hair & Makeup
5am – Travel Time
6am – First Look/Ceremony & Exploring/Photo Session
8am – Head back to hotel for food, nap, refresh
3pm – Meet up again
4pm – Exploring/Photo Session Location One
6pm – Sunset Exploration/Photo Session
8pm – Head back to town
Two Day Schedule
Spread out the celebration and your photo session with a two day schedule. This elopement timeline gives you adventure of a couples session the first day. As well as the day of experience with your choice of a sunset, sunrise, split day, or custom schedule.
*Day One (Just the two of you)
4pm – First Look & Exploring/Photo Session
6pm – Private Vow Sharing
7pm – Sunset Exploration/Photo Session
8pm – Head back to town
*Day Two (Ceremony & Celebration with guests)
Choice between Sunset, Sunrise, Split Day or Custom Schedule.
