Elope in Boulder With Ease
With My Expert Intimate-Wedding Planning Advice
In the foothills of the Rocky Mountains, only 40 minutes from Denver lies a unique town close to my heart and home. Boulder, Colorado, offers city conveniences plus all the fantastic scenery you could ever want. And I know from my experience as a Colorado elopement photographer Boulder is ideal for small, intimate weddings.
Boulder may make you think of organics and wellness. But that’s because the whole town feels organic, natural, and healthy. Boulder can also be glamorous or mellow–you choose the vibe here. That’s what makes Boulder one of my favorite towns to photograph. You’ll find everything from interesting buildings and streets to beautiful trails and peaks in Boulder.

Why Choose a Boulder Elopement?
Boulder is accessible year-round, making it a stress-free choice for eloping in Colorado. If you can get to Denver, you can get to Boulder. Boulder is only 42 miles from Denver International Airport.
You Can Elope in Boulder in Any Season
Winter – This time of year is one of my favorites in Boulder because of the seasonal events and the tons of powder that fall in the area. If you enjoy winter sports like skiing or snowboarding, come here anytime between January and March, as Boulder is close to world-class ski mountains.
Spring – Boulder is simply beautiful in spring. You’ll likely see some rainy days, but how about some sweet photos of the two of you sharing a kiss under an umbrella? Even when it showers, Boulder is incredibly scenic and romantic.
Summer – Another of my favorite times of year in Boulder. Again, summer sees many fun festivals held. Restaurants and bars open their patios so that guests can enjoy the warm weather. And hiking is fantastic because the air in the mountains is cool and refreshing.
Fall – Fall colors make for glorious photos. Like springtime, this season can bring some rainy days and chilly nights. But for beautiful foliage, Boulder’s lakes and parks offer amazing colors you can enjoy on foot or by bike.
Boulder Is Scenic From Every Angle
Boulder may not be as remote as some areas of Colorado, but this adorable town is no less stunning. I like grabbing my camera for unique shots of iconic places I find when walking around the city. Boulder is easy to get around because it’s pedestrian- and bike-friendly. The bus system is also excellent.
You can also drive to the surrounding beauty, but here’s an insider tip: Watch where you park in Boulder and follow all parking laws to avoid tickets. You’ll find parking regulations strictly enforced in town.
Many shops in Boulder are locally owned and carry lots of interesting merchandise. Whenever I shop there, I always find something wonderful to photograph. Boulder restaurants also serve the most Insta-worthy (and delicious) plates.
The Best Places to Elope in Boulder
My work as a seasoned Colorado elopement photographer means I know Boulder elopement locations to have your dream ceremony, whether it’s just the two of you or a small party. Often, clients who know they want to get married in this scenic town, but haven’t yet picked a specific location, will ask me: Where should we have our elopement ceremony in Boulder?
Below are my top 8 Boulder, Colorado, elopement locations, but we can also talk about your personal preferences—I always have a few other ideas in my back pocket—and sometimes the sweetest spots are off the beaten path. So even if you have another Colorado elopement plan, you can still use this as a fun list of things to do in Boulder.
Bear in mind that if you hire a Boulder elopement photographer for any Open Space and Mountain Park spots, they’ll need to secure a photography permit as well as submit a reservation request. I handle all this for you, but I mention it here because planning ahead is important. I’ll need to know on exactly which trail(s) you want photography (and when), and if any friends, family, or vendors will be joining. The good news is this system means only one elopement can happen at each location at a time, but this also means the most popular spots book up fast, so again, please reach out ASAP if you’re considering Boulder for your elopement!
Sunrise Amphitheater
Get breathtaking combination views of the city and mountains with all the privacy you want by reserving this gorgeous natural venue through Boulder Open Space and Mountain Parks. The amphitheater can accommodate guests and a sizable wedding party. Plus, you won’t have hikers in the background of your photos.
Another great feature about one of my favorite Boulder elopement locations is that you’re close to a few hiking trails for epic post-ceremony photos with plenty of glorious mountain scenery to make it appear you’re thousands of miles from civilization. Both sunrises and sunsets are incredible at Sunrise Amphitheater.
Reservations are either one or three hours. The fee for one hour is $100 for residents of Boulder and $150 for non-residents, and the fee for three hours is $300 for residents and $400 for non-residents. Please note: The amphitheater is closed from October 31 through April 30.
Artist Point Elopement
Located near Sunrise Amphitheater, on top of Flagstaff Mountain, is the pretty spot of Artist Point. This point is a great place for intimate elopements without guests because the surrounding trees make it nicely private. I like this spot because of both the privacy and fantastic views where the trees clear, and dogs are allowed here.
Chautauqua Park
Chautauqua Park is a busy space, but you can also see the iconic Flatirons right from the parking lot. The best time to elope here is on a weekday at sunrise when it freshly glows and before the crowds arrive. But even if you’re not alone (it’s a popular spot among Boulder, Colorado, elopement locations), you’ll get lots of well-wishes from everyone you meet. If you’d like to stay onsite, Chautauqua Park offers 58 adorable cottages ranging in size from studio to three bedrooms, with kitchens and screened porches. It’s also dog-friendly.
Lost Gulch Overlook
Reach Lost Gulch Overlook by taking a drive up Flagstaff Road. From here, you’ll feel like you can see the entire beautiful state of Colorado. It’s a popular spot and open year-round. For the best experience, summer and fall are ideal seasons for elopements here. Sunrise is your best bet for avoiding crowds and getting the most spectacular views and photos.
It’s also another excellent place for wearing traditional gowns and shoes. The walk to the overlook is short, although rocky and inaccessible for wheelchairs. It’s also dog-friendly.
National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) Trail
As far as Boulder elopement locations, this one has a strange name with a fantastic trail. The NCAR trail offers incredible views and is a beautiful elopement spot, especially at sunrise or sunset. You don’t have to hike to get to a good ceremony spot, so you can wear whatever you’d like. Restrooms are available, it’s wheelchair accessible, and the area is dog friendly.
Red Rocks Park
Red Rocks Park is managed by the City of Denver but is easily accessible from Boulder. If you have fewer than five guests (including you and the photographer), you won’t need a permit for either the ceremony or the photography in the park area and trails.
However, if you want to have a larger wedding inside the park’s famous amphitheater or use any part of the amphitheater for your elopement, you’ll need to call (720) 865-2484 or visit their online contact page.
I do love the rock formations and how they add interest to photos. Out on the trails, the rocks will also give you a bit of privacy during your ceremony.
Brainard Lake
Brainard Lake is a popular destination with fantastic mountain views and a gorgeous place for your Boulder, Colorado, elopement, especially during July or August. It’s less than an hour away by car and is open 24 hours, so you have lots of flexibility on when to have your ceremony and photographs. However, since Brainard Lake sees a high volume of visitors, I recommend sunrise or a weekday with few guests.
If you plan to park at the Brainard Lake Recreation Area you’ll need to purchase a timed-entry ticket. The timed-entry window is 8 a.m. – 11 a.m. but you can get there early, too, starting at 5 a.m.
Another good thing about eloping at Brainard Lake is that you don’t have to hike. Restrooms are available for hair and makeup touch-ups too. Bridal updos, cute shoes, and dream wedding dresses are perfectly fine here. You are also welcome to include your (leashed) dog if you elope at Brainard Lake. This park is dog friendly.
Indian Peaks Wilderness
The gorgeous Indian Peaks Wilderness area covering 76,000 acres was officially designated in 1978. It’s now a hugely popular destination for hikers. I love this natural space for a Boulder elopement because of its alpine vibe, tundras, and massive 13,000-feet peaks. Named after western Native American peoples, the peaks are called Apache Peak, Pawnee Peak, and Ogallala Peak. It’s managed by the U.S. Forest Service and the National Park Service because it shares a border with Rocky Mountain National Park.
The wilderness is a lovely area within the Arapaho and Roosevelt national forests. Best of all, it’s easy to get to from Boulder. You’ll need a permit for groups of 8 to 12, and you should plan to get one as soon as you start making plans as they’ll fill fast. But because of its popularity, the trails are well-marked and maintained. There is even a spectacular alpine lake called Devil’s Thumb Lake, sitting at 11,180 feet. It takes a 6-mile hike from the town of Nederland in Boulder County to reach it.
I know this wild part of Boulder County well, so I can take you to some quiet, scenic spots that will make your elopement as memorable as possible.
Here are a few other favorite places I like to take couples to get great photos in Boulder County. Or add them to your to-do list just for fun:
University of Colorado Boulder–This gorgeous campus’ sandstone buildings have fantastic red tile roofs. You can also see the Flatirons from here. I always get great shots of famous Folsom Field from campus too.
Boulder Theater–Pre- or post-wedding photos in front of the Boulder Theater’s art deco marquee would be a superb choice for couples who love live music.
Boulder Farmers Market–I love capturing an elopement photography session at farmers’ markets. There’s just something “casual weekend” about shopping for colorful veggies and flowers or choosing a great loaf of bread for the week ahead.
Flagstaff Mountain–You’ll find Flagstaff Mountain west of Boulder. From the top, you’ll get the best views of the town. It’s also one of my favorite places to hike and picnic–romantic picnics here are the best. On the way to the top, look for the pull-outs so you can stop and get fantastic panoramas of the entire valley.
The Chairs–These are sandstone chunks left in an old rock quarry. But hikers making the Mesa Trail sit on them like they are furniture and enjoy the views while surrounded by nature.
These are just a few places where you can experience Boulder’s beauty. In addition, I have many secret spots in and around Boulder where I like to take my couples to get the ultimate “wow” factor.

Boulder, Colorado Vacation Rentals
Whenever I stay over in Boulder, I love the feeling of having my very own mountain hideaway. For your Boulder elopement, here’s a list of amazing vacation rentals that offer ultra privacy and relaxation with options to fit every preference.
I personally researched each of these properties before adding them to this list, taking into consideration the layout of the space and the overall aesthetic for the potential photography we might be doing there! Families can spread out (and the betrothed can occupy opposite wings, if needed), and these types of lodging are also perfect for bringing in a private chef for your wedding day dinner! I’ve included a good mix of budget, luxury, and dog-friendly listings–click the button above and start getting inspired!
When a Vrbo listing has caught your eye, scroll down to the “House Rules” to read the hosts’ event policy. Some may charge an extra fee, and pay attention to the limit on guests. While I’ve vetted these properties for their amenities, ambiance, and elopement potential (have you SEEN some of these back yards?!), you’ll definitely want to disclose your plans with your host to ensure you’re not met with any last-minute surprises.
Boulder Wedding Vendors
These Boulder wedding vendors come highly recommended by my past couples and have been personally vetted to ensure they share my values of inclusion.

Genius!
Fun Things to Do in Boulder, Co.
Here are some of my favorite places to see and activities to do in Boulder whenever I visit.
Flatirons
These iconic sandstone formations called the Flatirons are a part of the town’s western foothills. You can get great views and photos of them from Boulder. But to get a closer experience, hike them on one of the many trails, including the Chautauqua Trailhead found off Baseline Road. You can also opt for rock climbing if you have the skills (fun photo opp!) or grab some fresh items from the farmers market and have a romantic picnic.
Eldorado Canyon
Another one of my favorite places for great things to do in Boulder is head to Eldorado Canyon. I love hiking through the sandstone cliffs, and the canyon is ideal for a picnic or rock climbing. The area also has more than 500 technical rock climbing routes.
You can also mountain bike the trails of various difficulties, all connected with Boulder’s trail systems. Finally, I highly recommend picnics and fishing in beautiful South Boulder Creek. The canyon gets crowded on weekends, especially in the summer, so choose a gorgeous weekday (especially for a Boulder, Colorado, elopement) to enjoy it all.
Pearl Street Mall
I can’t list all my favorite restaurants, breweries, and shops found at the fabulous pedestrian Pearl Street Mall that covers four blocks. But, I often share my choices with my Boulder elopement couples when they tell me they want to elope in Boulder. The mall spans downtown Boulder from 11th Street to 15th Street and holds many gems, plus the Boulder County Courthouse. It’s a great place to spend a couple of hours browsing the unique bookstores, galleries, and boutiques.
Boulder’s Rich History
As with many western territories, Boulder’s gold first attracted settlers in the 1850s. The original settlement in Boulder County was at Red Rocks, or The Peoples’ Crossing, on October 17, 1858. One of the gold-seeking settlers, A.A. Brookfield established the Boulder City Town Company on February 19, 1859.
As president of Boulder City, he and a group of shareholders divided the acreage along Boulder Creek. They tried to sell them for $1,000 per lot. Such high land prices kept growth low. Yet, miners poured into the area, along with hardware and mining suppliers, transportation companies, gambling halls and saloons, and rooming houses.
By late 1871, Boulder officially incorporated and dropped the aspirational “city.” Citizens first built their homes downtown but soon moved after the district became commercial. Wealthy families made their homes in the Mapleton Hill and Whittier districts.
Throughout the late 1800s, townspeople erected schoolhouses and banks. The one-building University of Colorado welcomed 44 students and a professor in 1877. In 1887, electricity was available for the swelling population. Three years later, the railroad depot opened.
Boulder was also the location of Chautauqua, which some Texans established in 1898 to allow them to retreat from sweltering summer weather. The Chautauqua they created boosted Boulder’s parks and open space preservation program, which is still a city priority.
Over the decades, tech and aerospace companies have moved in, bringing interesting and well-paying jobs to town. Today, Boulder remains a beautifully planned city advancing a healthy environment and high quality of life for residents and visitors to enjoy. It was even named Happiest City in the U.S. by National Geographic.
