Double Rainbow for a Rainbow Couple!

Jen and Elisheba met Stephanie and Maria at their Airbnb where the two were getting ready together with their family. They didn’t have a first look but they shared the experience of getting ready for their elopement together, which is just as sweet. 

The group headed to Lake Mcdonald Lodge Beach in Glacier. This was the location for their very eventful ceremony! When they first stepped onto the beach, Jen and Elisheba noticed some dark clouds quickly rolling in from the east. 

Maria got halfway through her vows with her back to the storm when she turned around and said, “what the heck is going on back there?!” Two minutes later, the rain started coming down and the group escaped to hide under some nearby trees to wait out the shower. 

After hanging out for 20 minutes or so, the rain seemed to have passed so Jen walked down to the shore to check it out and came across the most beautiful sight. A full, bright double rainbow reaching across the sky. She called the group over in excitement to take photos right away with the most beautiful backdrop. This was one of the coolest experiences we have had on an elopement. So much pride power! 

After all fo the excitement, it was time to finish the ceremony! They had a hand-fasting ceremony and then shared some sios of some cider that Elisheba brought for them. The storm was hanging out once they said their I dos so we headed out of Glacier to the Blue Moon Saloon where they had their first dance as Wife and Wife. 

This was an extremely epic day and we are honored to have been a part of it! Check out the gallery below to experience parts of it for yourself!
