Capturing Kassie and Travis's elopement in the Smoky Mountains was an absolute dream come true. As part of the photography and videography team, we had the incredible privilege of witnessing their love story unfold in one of the most breathtaking natural settings imaginable.

Kassie and Travis, who had been together for over seven years, reached out to us with a unique vision for their special day. They longed for an adventure elopement that prioritized intimate moments and awe-inspiring scenery over the grandeur of a traditional wedding. Together, we decided on the enchanting Smoky Mountains as the backdrop for their love story.

Their elopement day was pure magic. We started at a cozy Airbnb where they exchanged their heartfelt vows in an intimate ceremony surrounded by their closest family members. The air was filled with love, and champagne toasts and a sweet cake added to the joyous atmosphere.

However, Mother Nature had her own plans, surprising us with a sudden downpour. But Kassie and Travis didn't let this deter them; instead, they embraced the rain as an unexpected, beautiful part of their journey. To our delight, the rain added a unique and almost ethereal quality to their photos and videos, turning their day into an enchanting fairytale.

With their adventurous spirits guiding us, we ventured into the Smoky Mountains' lush landscapes and misty peaks. The rain-soaked setting became the canvas for capturing their love story, highlighting the beauty of spontaneity, love, and the great outdoors.

As the day transitioned into evening, the adventure continued with a private, romantic dinner at the Appalachian Restaurant. Here, Kassie and Travis enjoyed the intimacy of their elopement day while sharing dreams and aspirations for their future. We wrapped up the evening with a heartwarming first dance beneath the starry Smoky Mountain sky.

Kassie and Travis's Smoky Mountain elopement was an extraordinary journey of love and embracing life's surprises. It showcased the stunning Smoky Mountain backdrop and turned unexpected rain into a beautiful memory. We're deeply grateful to have been part of their unforgettable day, capturing the start of their forever journey as the Kostellos. It's a day that will forever hold a special place in their hearts, and in ours too.
