Jeramiah + Morgan | Intimate Garden of the Gods Micro Wedding

Jeramiah and Morgan had the sweetest micro wedding at Garden of the Gods in southern Illinois. The sandstone cliffs and sweeping views of the Shawnee National Forest created the most breathtaking backdrop for their day. Before meeting their families, Jeramiah and Morgan shared a private first look in the woods nearby. It was a quiet, emotional moment, just the two of them surrounded by trees and the soft sounds of nature, the perfect way to start their wedding day.

Their story came full circle in such a meaningful way. The two actually got engaged at the Garden of the Gods in Colorado, so choosing this location for their ceremony felt like the perfect way to tie everything together.

With their closest family gathered on the cliffs, Jeramiah and Morgan exchanged heartfelt vows overlooking the incredible rock formations. The intimate setting made every moment feel personal, genuine, and full of love. After the ceremony, the couple snuck away for an adventure among the cliffs for their wedding portraits. The golden light and quiet of the forest made for the most romantic photos before they met back up with their loved ones for dinner to celebrate.

If you’ve ever dreamed of saying “I do” surrounded by nature, Garden of the Gods in southern Illinois is truly one of the most beautiful and peaceful places for an elopement or micro wedding. Let us know your wishes and we will be happy to point you in the right direction.
