When it came time to plan their wedding, Diana and Sue didn’t have to think twice—the mountains had always felt like home. It wasn’t about finding the trendiest venue or the perfect floral arrangement. They just wanted something real. Somewhere quiet, peaceful, and full of meaning. Somewhere that reminded them of how their story began—surrounded by trees, fresh air, and the kind of calm that only nature gives.

They imagined a weekend, not just a day. A little adventure with the people they loved most. There’d be hiking for those who were up for it, campfires to gather around at night, and skies full of stars. Some of their guests were seasoned outdoorsy types, while others weren’t quite sure what to expect—but that didn’t matter. What mattered was being together.

They found a cozy lodge tucked in the foothills, with a wide open meadow that felt like it had been waiting just for them. That’s where they’d say their vows, surrounded by wildflowers and the soft soundtrack of birds and wind through the trees.
