A Snow Canyon - St. George, UT Micro Wedding: The Love Story of Nick and Mary

Nick and Mary met on a dating app. Nick was from Philly and Mary was from Columbia originally. They both met in Florida and hit it off over travel, their mutual careers and interest in helping children, and the love of their families. They decided to have a micro wedding in St. George, UT with all of their closest friends and loved ones, for exploration of the desert, to hit up national parks with family, and then to all party in Vegas before they flew out! Here is their love story by Roaming Vow Film Co. - a photo and video team that specializes in Utah micro weddings.

Getting Ready

The couple got ready at a cute Airbnb in Washington, UT. They had sandwiches catered to the home, and champagne for everyone. All of the bridesmaids were in matching robes and PJs and they had decorated Mary’s bridal suite.

Formal/Bridal Photos

Next, the day began to turn into an elopement adventure as we hit up different destinations in Snow Canyon State Park for their bridal portraits. We started out exploring Jenny’s Canyon and the sand dunes of Snow Canyon.

The couple brought along some cute parasols for pictures.

Then we took a moment for the Petrified Dunes!

The Reception

The couple had their reception at the Cliffside Restaurant in St. George overlooking the valley. They had a beautiful table decorated for the occasion and the food and service were fantastic!

Then we concluded the night overlooking the city lights. It was such an incredible day to remember!
