The Quiet Moments Before “I Do”
Devin and Jorge’s special day began at Blind Tiger in Burlington. The soon-to-be married couple got ready for their intimate elopement together, surrounded by the beautiful interiors of the historic hotel, originally built in 1881. Antique furnishings, high windows, and unique paintings surrounded Devin and Jorge as they shared their pre-ceremony champagne. Adding to the joy of the day, the couple was greeted with heartfelt congratulations from both fellow guests and Inn staff as they made their way through the morning. After getting ready, the couple headed downstairs to the Blind Tiger’s chic common area and then outside for stunning portraits captured by Vermont wedding photographer, Moriah of Moho Photo.
“One of the many reasons I love being part of elopements is the freedom couples have to focus on what truly matters to them. These two put so much thought into how they wanted to spend their day, and beginning in such a beautiful space, with no rush, was the loveliest start!” – Moriah
Stunning Views & Mountaintop Vows
After their slow morning at Blind Tiger, the couple headed to Mount Philo State Park, located just down Route 7 in Charlotte, Vermont. Devin and Jorge looked effortlessly stylish in their complementary brown and green suits, each adorned with sweet boutonnieres by Vermont wedding florist Tipsy Tulip Designs. Standing before sweeping mountaintop views, they read carefully crafted, handwritten vows to one another. Their officiant, Greg Trulson, kept the mood light, prompting plenty of laughter throughout the ceremony. When it came time to exchange rings, the moment felt extra special: their bands paired perfectly with their matching initial tattoos, a subtle but meaningful symbol of their bond.
Surrounded by love and natural beauty, Devin and Jorge sealed their promises with their first kiss as a married couple, a joyful start to the next chapter of their lives together! A gorgeous floral cake from Red Poppy Cakery awaited the couple after their ceremony, and Devin and Jorge captured countless memories on their film camera together.
Choosing to elope in Vermont means giving yourself the freedom to slow down and focus on what matters most: each other. You’re not tied to a rigid timeline or expectations, but instead free to shape a day that feels natural and meaningful. With stunning landscapes and welcoming wedding vendors ready to help, it’s an encouraging reminder that your Vermont wedding can be whatever you want it to be.
Congratulations, Devin and Jorge, on your beautiful wedding day!
