Sunrise Hurricane Ridge Elopement
Sunrise Hurricane Ridge Elopement
Kelley and Matt woke up at the crack of dawn for this sunrise styled elopement at Hurricane Ridge in Olympic National Park. To say it was gorgeous would be an understatement. Everything was so still, quiet, and beautiful. Kelley put on leggings under her dress and they both wore socks with their chacos!
K & M snuggled in the soft blue hour light while they watched the alpenglow on the distant mountains. The moon was out, which only added to the morning magic! Once they were ready the exchanged personal love letters and vows as sun got closer and closer to rising over the mountains. We then continued on to other parts of the park for elopement portraits and exploring!
Hurricane Ridge is an incredible place for both sunrise and sunset elopements. There’s a lot of space to spread out, trails to explore, and 360 views in many areas. There’s also a ton of wildlife in Olympic National Park! It’s not uncommon to see deer within 30 ft of you, bunnies, and even bears! One time I saw 3 bears in one day (all from a safe distance away, thankfully!). I absolutely love how accessible it is as well. The road up to Hurricane Ridge is absolutely gorgeous itself and there’s many locations that area ADA accessible. This styled elopement was a perfect example. In some of the images you can tell this was on a dirt road close to the main parking lot. There wasn’t a sole around and it was so incredibly accessible.
