Glen Eyrie Castle Wedding: Amanda & Jerry

Sometimes you just never know what to expect.  

Like the Friday I got a call from Amanda & Jerry saying they were leaving Oklahoma and headed to Colorado and just decided to elope! And if was I available on Tuesday.

Sometimes you just know.

These two met by the powers of the internet (Hey, John and I did too), a month prior to their wedding.  After a couple of dates, it was undeniable. Amanda and Jerry were engaged just weeks later.

Based on their families’ availability, they saw a narrow window of opportunity for the wedding, but it had to be in Colorado.  The grabbed it and planned their wedding on the drive from Oklahoma to Colorado.

What a whirlwind!  Their quick planning paid of ten-fold in what turned out to be a perfectly, gorgeous, intimate wedding at the Glen Eyrie Castle.

Amanda and Jerry,  I am blessed to have a witnessed your first day of a lifetime!  Thank you for letting me be the one to capture it.

I hope you enjoy! There’s plenty more where these came from.

With love and joy
René
