Eloping in Colorado Springs & Pikes Peak

Colorado Springs is the easiest big scenery elopement in Colorado. Garden of the Gods is a free city park with six named wedding areas, first come and first served, and Pikes Peak behind the sandstone. The airport is twenty minutes away and the climate is mild enough for a winter date without snowshoes.

The tradeoff is crowds, so sunrise, weekdays and the shoulder months matter more here than permits do. Manitou Springs, Cheyenne Canon and the state parks nearby add quieter options. The photographers, officiants and venues below know the park rules, where to park a small group and when the light hits the rocks.
