This ski proposal at Breckenridge Ski Resort was a shocking surprise! When Coleman dropped down to his knee, Erin thought he was pranking her. Then Coleman pulled out the ring box and Erin still thought it was a prank. When he opened the ring box and Erin saw the ring, she finally realized it was real! She was in such shock she dropped her skis and poles! As she said yes, nearby skiers and snowboarders cheered for them! It was such a sweet proposal to witness at Breckenridge!
Ski Proposal in Breckenridge Colorado
Erin and Coleman came all the way from DC for their Colorado ski vacation. Though they love skiing in the East, they enjoy taking ski trips all over the U.S. and even to the Canadian Rockies! These two are both expert skiers! Both Erin and Coleman were even officer’s in their college’s ski club.
After their proposal, we took the highest lift in North America, the Imperial Express, to the top of Breckenridge’s Peak 8. Peak 8 stands just under 13,000ft! We hiked the ridge which had incredible 360 views of the Colorado mountain range. Then we dropped into the double black diamond bowls and took epic photos of Coleman and Erin being badass skiers.
It was so fun to ski with Erin and Coleman and to document their engagement!
Proposing at Breckenridge Resort
Don’t worry- you don’t need to be an expert skier like Erin and Coleman to propose while skiing or snowboarding. As long as both you and your partner are comfortable on your skis or snowboard, and can get around, then it’s completely possible. Plus, I always recommend taking off your skis or snowboard before actually proposing so that you and your partner are able to move freely. I have plenty of location recommendations to match your skiing level!
Enjoy getting a glimpse into Erin and Coleman’s ski proposal on this bright and sunny day!
