Two years ago, Erin and Marshall both came to Zion on their own soul-searching missions, and they both happened to hike up to this point around the same time. Thankfully, Marshall has a habit of saying hello to just about every person he sees, so up on this rock, he struck up a conversation with Erin and her friend Anje. They connected immediately and after braving a beautiful rainstorm up top, the three of them hiked the whole way down together in good conversation. They exchanged numbers, and the conversation still hasn’t stopped. Two years later, we hiked out to this point with them and three of their closest friends (including Anje!) so they could exchange vows as the sun came up behind the canyon.

Krista and Justin wanted to do something different for their wedding, so they decided to elope in Page, Arizona! They rented a jeep and after their first look at Horseshoe Bend, we drove an epic 4x4 road out to a secret overlook on Lake Powell where they had their intimate elopement ceremony. We spent the evening drinking cocktails and exploring the desert above Lake Powell.
