A fall elopement at Dolly Sods

Ashley and Paul's elopement at Dolly Sods was a masterclass in intimate elegance and natural beauty. Nestled in the rugged wilderness of West Virginia, Dolly Sods offered the perfect backdrop for their special day, with its stunning vistas and early fall colors providing an idyllic setting for their vows and celebration.

Ashley and Paul chose to share their elopement ceremony with their immediate family members. The ceremony site was just a short walk for an incredible payout with a breathtaking viewpoint and our in-house officiant made it heartfelt and personal for A+ P. After the ceremony, as their families departed, Ashley and Paul took the opportunity to explore the vast beauty of Dolly Sods. The early fall colors were in full display, with vibrant reds, oranges, and yellows painting the landscape. Amidst the trees, Ashley and Paul enjoyed a private picnic for two. The secluded spot offered the perfect retreat where they could relax and savor the moment. Surrounded by nature, they shared one of Tom’s glorious charcuterie boards, that was both simple and exquisite. The quietness of the forest and the gentle rustling of leaves created an atmosphere of peace and intimacy. As the day transitioned into evening, Ashley and Paul shared their first dance among the trees before soaking in the remaining sunlight.
