Adventurous Dolomites Elopement

Have you ever dreamed of a Dolomites wedding? Meggin and Rob, from Reno, have seen a lot of pictures of these mountains and dreamed about these places for years. And finally, they decided to make the renewal of their wedding vows here.

Meggin is an amazing photographer, a super mum, and a powerful woman. Robert is a funny man, a wonderful husband and a supportive friend.

They decided to make the renewal of their wedding promises after 10 years in Italy and this experience has been amazing. 

We chatted a lot before this day, we talked about the location, the dresses and a lot of practical information like the car rentals and the best light conditions for the shooting. Finally we can say it has been epic.

Meg and Rob came from Venice, with a rented car, us from Lake Como. We meet each other in Ranui, Val di Funes, in the late afternoon. We spent two incredible hours together.

First of all, we took a walk in the woods behind the little church of San Giovanni. The forest was full of violet erica and the snow was amazing. The atmosphere was moody and intimate.

The renewal

Then we reached the church by walk and Megan and Robin read their vows from their phones. It has been breathtaking.

Meggin started with a classic of the Corinthians:

“Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.  It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.  It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.”

Robert talked about their life together. And we cried together. Yes, us too!
