Truly heaven on earth during the fall, it’s one of Sonia + Chad’s favorite places on earth. Steamboat, Colorado welcomed the two + their families from Texas to host one of the sweetest days of their lives.
It was a warm, early fall day with the first autumn colors peaking through on all the surrounding mountains, the perfect day to elope in Colorado.

If you look closely, you can see Sonia + Chad’s tiny families making their way up the trail to the waterfall–the backdrop for the elopement.
They’d known each other for what felt like forever, and everyone (including Chad’s two kids, Maddox + Blake) was overjoyed to witness them make their marriage official.
