A Passo Giau Meadow Elopement in the Dolomites

A mountain chapel, a meadow high on Passo Giau and the last golden light on the peaks — an intimate Dolomites elopement.

They chose Passo Giau for its wide-open meadows and the little alpine chapel beneath Ra Gusela — one of the most scenic passes in the Dolomites, and yet only a few steps from the road. No long hike, no rush; just the two of them, a sunflower bouquet and the whole amphitheatre of peaks to themselves.

We timed the vows for the golden hour, when the clouds broke over the ridgeline and the meadow turned warm and amber. A pass like Giau is perfect when you want big Dolomite drama without the effort — drive up, walk a few minutes, and marry with the mountains as your only guests.
