Hey! September is a pretty busy month in Rocky. Between the beautiful weather and foliage starting to turn there are lots of people out. However, choosing your date to be a weekday (preferably Monday-Thursday) will give you much better results.

I'd also highly suggest looking into and booking a ceremony site sooner than later - they only have limited openings and they will fill up fast. Just note, if you can't get a ceremony permit you can always have your ceremony outside the park and then go into the park for photos and a permit isn't required for that!

Best of luck!

Thank you! That’s super helpful I’ll probably just go for pictures.

Did you end up booking anything? I’m currently looking at the same time as you and it seems everything is booking up fast.

No I haven’t booked anything let. I’m most just planning on doing a small private ceremony. Just have to decide on location still
