A Beautiful Elopement at The Pavilion at Gallatin River Lodge- Jen & Colton's Special Day

Elopement at The Pavilion at Gallatin River Lodge - Alyssa Johnson Photography - Bozeman Montana Elopement/Wedding Photographer

When Jen and Colton decided to elope, they wanted an intimate, heartfelt celebration that captured their love and the excitement of welcoming a new life. The Pavilion at Gallatin River Lodge in Bozeman, MT, provided the perfect setting for their July wedding day, set against Montana’s stunning landscape and warm summer skies. With Jen glowing at over 30 weeks pregnant, their wedding was as much a celebration of love as it was of family and future.

The Challenges of a Pregnant Bride and an Elopement

Planning for the perfect, stress-free day while more than 30 weeks pregnant can be tricky. Comfort and pacing are key, but so is finding ways to let the bride relax and enjoy her day.

Capturing the intimacy and significance of an elopement requires a careful touch. Without the usual fanfare of a big wedding, every moment becomes even more important to record and cherish.

How to Make Their Day Perfect

With thoughtful planning and flexible pacing, we made sure that Jen and Colton could take breaks whenever needed, allowing Jen to rest while we captured the beauty of the day. From the peaceful walk through the Lodge’s lush grounds to intimate moments by the river, we focused on creating natural, romantic portraits that celebrated not only their love but also Jen’s radiant joy as a mother-to-be.

We tailored the photo session to capture the elopement’s special significance, honoring each moment with sensitivity and care. With the mountains framing their vows and the warm Bozeman sunlight enveloping them, every shot reflected their unique journey as a couple.

Jada & Ryan's Enchanting Montana Wedding at the Historic Marysville General Store

Capturing True Moments in a Unique Setting

Jada and Ryan's love story isn't just about dates and milestones—it’s about experiences, adventure, and a lifetime of memories that deserve to be captured authentically. But, how do you truly capture the spirit of a couple with a story so rich and varied?

Finding the Perfect Place and Style for Their Story

Jada and Ryan wanted more than just pictures—they wanted a visual legacy of their love. And with Montana’s breathtaking landscapes as their backdrop, the challenge was to find a way to capture both their personalities and the natural beauty surrounding them.

Tailored Photography That Embraces Their Love Story

By combining natural poses, candid emotions, and expert timing, we were able to bring Jada and Ryan's unique story to life. From their first date to their adventurous trips across Yellowstone and beyond, each image tells the story of their journey, capturing timeless moments against Montana’s stunning scenery.

When Jada and Ryan chose to tie the knot, they envisioned a celebration as timeless and adventurous as their love story. Their wedding at the historic Marysville General Store in the heart of Maryville, Montana, was just that—an enchanting blend of Montana’s rugged beauty and the intimate warmth of a family gathering.

The Historic Marysville General Store as a Backdrop

The choice of the Marysville General Store added a unique, rustic charm to their wedding. Nestled in the heart of Maryville, the store combines historic Montana architecture with a natural elegance that mirrored Jada and Ryan’s love for exploring rugged landscapes. Surrounded by scenic mountain views and the cozy, inviting atmosphere of the store, their wedding felt both deeply personal and profoundly connected to Montana’s natural beauty.

Wedding Details: A Blend of Rustic Charm and Modern Elegance

The decor was a beautiful balance of earthy and elegant tones. Natural elements, including lush greenery and soft white florals, enhanced the rustic charm of the general store’s wooden beams and vintage décor. Soft candlelight flickered against the rich wood, creating an intimate glow that filled the space with warmth and romance.

The tables were adorned with simple, elegant centerpieces featuring wildflowers native to Montana, bringing an organic feel to the celebration. Their color palette of soft greens, whites, and natural earth tones perfectly complemented the historic setting, emphasizing the harmonious blend of the couple’s modern love story with Montana’s timeless beauty.

Capturing Unforgettable Moments with a Unique Twist

Jada and Ryan’s wedding wasn’t just about the decor; it was about the authentic, heartfelt moments they shared with each other and their loved ones. From heartfelt vows to quiet moments stolen just for the two of them, each part of the ceremony and reception was captured in a way that highlighted both their personalities and the love that brought them together. We focused on candid shots that told the story of their day with authenticity, from their laughter to the tender glances they shared. Each photo became a timeless reminder of their wedding day, preserving the emotions and beauty of every moment.

Struggling to Find the Right Daddy-Daughter Song? Here’s How to Make It Perfect

Picking the perfect song for a daddy-daughter dance is a challenging yet memorable task. Many couples struggle to find a song that genuinely represents their unique relationship. You want something special, something that resonates and feels authentic—yet sorting through thousands of songs can feel overwhelming!

While timeless classics are popular for father-daughter dances, they may not hold personal significance for everyone. And sometimes, newer, lesser-known songs can capture the heart but may not resonate with your guests in the same way. Finding that balance between classic and personal is often the trickiest part.

Tips to Choose Your Ideal Daddy Daughter Song

1. Think About Shared Memories – Reflect on memories, experiences, or places you and your dad shared. Think of a song that reflects those moments.

2. Discuss Your Song Choices – If possible, sit down with your dad and discuss what each of you envisions for the dance. Share songs and get each other's reactions.

3. Consider the Mood and Dance Style – Do you want something lighthearted, heartfelt, or perhaps a bit more upbeat? Choose a song that fits your dancing style and desired mood.

4. Make It Unique – Pick a song that feels just right for you both, regardless of tradition or popular choices.

How Many Hours Should I Book My Wedding Photographer For?

Uncertainty in Planning Planning a wedding involves many details, and knowing how many hours of photography you need can be one of the most confusing parts.

Ensuring Adequate Coverage You want to ensure all significant moments are captured without paying for unnecessary hours.

Tailored Coverage Based on Your Day By understanding your wedding day schedule and prioritizing key moments, you can select the right photography package that meets both your needs and your budget.

Building a Wedding Timeline Always include extra time in your schedule to avoid feeling rushed. Unexpected delays can happen, and it’s better to have extra time and not need it than to stress about fitting everything in.

First Look Having a first look can be a private and calming moment before the ceremony, allowing you to spend more time together and take more photos without the pressure of guests waiting.

Weddings Without a First Look If you choose not to have a first look, plan for extra time during the cocktail hour for formal photos. Ensure everyone knows they’ll be needed for pictures immediately after the ceremony.
