Colleen and Damon flew in from Florida to have their dream desert elopement. Colleen is originally from Arizona, but never made it up to Sedona when she was a child and had always dreamed of being able to come back to the state that she used to call home. So, after Damon proposed, they both knew that Sedona should be the location that they would elope.

Colleen and Damon got theirselves ready at their Airbnb in the heart of the red rocks. They opted to get ready in separate bedrooms so that they could still enjoy that special first look moment. Their Airbnb backed up to some absolutely beautiful red rock buttes, so the backyard made the perfect place for their first look. Damon was in complete awe at how beautiful his bride was and how her wedding dress fit her impeccably. After taking it all in, we headed back through the house and out through the front door and Colleen and Damon loaded up into their Rav-4 rental car.

Once we arrived at Red Rock Western Jeep Tours, they had us each sign a waiver before loading up to learn about Sedona’s rich history and starting our off-road journey to Seven Sacred Pools. Once we arrived to Seven Sacred Pools, Colleen and Damon found the perfect spot with views of Coffee Pot Rock to say their vows.

The second location that we stopped at on our jeep tour was Devil’s Kitchen sink hole, the most active sinkhole in Sedona. Our tour guide shared with us some of the history of the sinkhole, which you can learn more about here. We then finished out our jeep tour at Airport View Overlook and took in the most epic view of Sedona.

After their jeep tour, Colleen and Damon went to a nearby resort where they had a table with views of Oak Creek reserved for brunch. Then proceeded to enjoy another hike that afternoon after heading back to their Airbnb to relax and change for the evening.
