Kelly & Mike
The Couple and Their Decision to Plan an Italian Dolomites Elopement
Kelly and Mike’s Italian Dolomites elopement originally started out with the couple planning Kelly’s 30th birthday trip to Italy. The couple got to talking and decided that while they were there, they should also plan their elopement and surprise their family when they got back home. Since they wanted to celebrate their marriage on top of a mountain, we quickly decided on The Dolomites.
As I had previous experience with the Dolomites in May, I made sure to warn Kelly and Mike that we might experience potential road closures. As with many mountain elopement locations, springtime can be a little tricky as it is a bit too early in the season for everything to be fully open. But, they were up for the challenge and ready to embrace whatever came their way.

During the planning process, Kelly and Mike knew they wanted to experience Lago Di Braies and Cadini Di Misurina for their elopement locations, however, I wanted to make sure we had a few backup plans as well
Although I had been to these locations before, the day before their elopement, I revisited them to double-check the road status as the online report isn’t quite reliable.
The night before their elopement, I met up with Mike and Kelly to go over our game plan. We made some changes to the elopement timeline due to some road closures and early morning rain.
The morning of their Italian Dolomites elopement was misty and foggy. We waited for the fog to lift and the mountain to come out at Lago
