Bryce Canyon Elopement
Photo and Video Team
Dream of western vibes, horse rides, and colorful hoodoos for your elopement?
Hey there! We’re your Bryce Canyon Elopement Guides!
We’re Tana (photographer) and Cory (videographer)
When an artsy music teacher met a mortgage broker athlete on Bumble, our photo & video team was born!
The first year of our marriage we traveled Europe visiting 15 countries and took photos and video of everything in sight! When we returned to the states, we became obsessed with telling others’ love stories through photo and film! Come adventuring with us in Bryce Canyon and we’ll show you all of the beauty that those orange hoodoos have to offer!

01 Documenting your AUTHENTIC story
Every elopement and love story is unique. We want to take the time to get to know you, your story and your wants for the day.

We are sure to hike the trails and scout your elopement locations during the week before your elopement, to make sure if anything pops up (like landslides, which can happen in Bryce from time to time, or harsh trail conditions) then we have Plan B routes to keep your day running smoothly. We want to take the stress off of your shoulders and be the experts you can rely on!

Fall and Spring.
Fall and Spring are typically cooler than the summer months and without as much snow coverage as winter.
If you are a fan of snow though, Bryce looks amazing with snow fall, you just won't be able to hike as far on the trails and the hours of daylight are shorter.
-
Bryce Canyon allows marriages to occur at 2 locations in Sunset Point: Silent City and the Main Amphitheater.
-
Bryce Canyon requires a $100 permit to get married in the park.

Sure! We love to see your crew! Elopements don't have to be running away from it all. Your friends and fam can adventure with you, as well!
Bring your friends and family, but just know within Bryce Canyon National Park no more than 30 guests are permitted to attend.

You will need an Utah Marriage license by applying at a country clerk's office in person, and someone on BCNP's approved list to officiate.
Utah also requires 2 witnesses present to sign your marriage license. If you are planning eloping with just you two, you can use vendors to sign or people on the trails are happy to sign as long as they are over the age of 18!

Here you can have your ceremony, reception, dinner, and house your guests and horses to boot!
Plus, there can be props like chairs, an alter, music, and things like that, that aren't allowed in Bryce Canyon National Park.

We don't believe hiking HAS to be required to have a beautiful elopement day.
If you enjoy hiking and it is in your bones, we will happily grab our boots and go, but there are many overlooks at Bryce that don't require hiking as well.
So this National Park can be an elopement for the adventurous OR the adventure-ISH!
We don't recommend hiking more than 3 miles out and 3 miles back on your elopement day because the outfits and gear we are taking will be different than a normal hiking day.
No worries though, we know all of the trails in this park, and can share some good recommends that make sense for YOU!
-
Most of our elopements last from 4 - 12 hours (which can be split up into two days if you wish).
It depends on what adventures you want documented or not, and how long you want the EPIC fun to last!
