We could go on and on about how incredibly talented of videographers Connor and Alix are. If you have stumbled upon their work, you already know this as the videos on their website will tug at your heart strings. What we’d like to highlight is everything that is NOT seen in the videos.

Although initially strangers, our first conversation with Connor and Alix felt like reconnecting with lifelong friends. They stood out amongst other videographers as they were responsive, professional, and by far the most genuinely interested in both of us as a couple, not just a client.

We had a very short timeline due to canceling our wedding in Iowa and deciding to elope in Glacier National Park. Throughout this entire process, Connor and Alix helped to setup our timeline, provided location advice, contacted their connections in the area for vendor recommendations, and pointed out permit requirements, which made this process far less stressful. They worked seamlessly with our photographer throughout the planning process and during the wedding day. Everyone seemed so comfortable with each other, it was almost like we had known each other for years.

As if COVID wasn’t enough to deal with, wildfires began to rage on the West coast causing poor air quality and visibility days before our ceremony. Connor and Alix scouted our location in the days prior to our ceremony helping us to deciding the exact timing, driving route, etc. The amount of knowledge they had regarding lighting, sunset/sunrise, air quality, and specifically in the mountains was extraordinary. Had it not been for them scouting the location (a few hours drive), we wouldn’t have had such a perfect ceremony captured at the perfect time.

Most important of all, we feel forever grateful for having had Connor and Alix film our elopement. There are many good and capable videographers out there, however, Connor and Alix have all of the intangible aspects that many others do not. They are an authentic couple with so much talent and insight, but it is their genuine interest in working towards you having a special wedding day that shines through their work. It was things like them going out of their way to scout our location when they weren’t obligated to, or them reaching out with a phone call a few days prior to make sure we felt comfortable about our timeline, or them getting to know us and our music preferences to best represent us, or them thinking to leave us alone for a few minutes after our ceremony to have a special moment, just the two of us, without cameras (this was something we hadn’t even thought about or planned for, but it was so meaningful and truly showed that, for them, it wasn’t just about getting great video the entire day, it was about us).

Having it all captured on film in such an organic and natural way allows us to relive our big day and all of the meaningful little moments that both were and weren’t captured on camera! It is something that we will cherish forever and we hope that, for your sake, you make the decision to have that opportunity as well by booking Connor and Alix.

Alix and Connor were easily some of the best people we could have picked for our elopement to Colorado. We didn’t know exactly what we wanted for our elopement, but they assisted us every step of the way. They helped us find an amazing location, both in Manitou Springs and in Garden of the Gods. They also assisted us in making sure we were allowed to have cameras everywhere that we went ahead of time, and reached out to vendors to ensure a very smooth day. They were also extremely easy to work with the day of, and were very supportive and helpful whenever they needed to be. Not to mention the fact that they’re really cool people and fun to hang out with haha.

The video they put together for us was so amazing. I don’t think we could have found anyone who could have made such a perfect elopement video for us. They got all of the big moments on video, as well as all of the fun ones. It captured our personalities so well, as well as the events of the entire day. We basically gave them full creative liberties and they blew us away!

I would HIGHLY recommend that if you’re looking to elope in Colorado and need a videographer to reach out to them. I can honestly say that without them, we would have been lost in planning everything and everything would have been a lot more stressful. Also, if you’re lucky you might run into them after the wedding hiking/biking through the various trails nearby Colorado Springs!

I wish that I could put into words how much we loved working with Alix and Connor but truthfully, I would then be writing a novel and I know that nobody has time to read that. In all seriousness, Alix and Connor went above and beyond in their production of our wedding video. Our video captured every tender moment, and truthfully the total vibe of our big day! From the little moments, the winks, silly dance moves and overall feeling of our day was brought to life. Truly, in our eyes it is perfection. While Alix and Connor are true artists, their kind souls is truly the icing on top of the cake. They made us feel so incredibly comfortable in front of the camera and they worked diligently to capture every single priceless moment of the best day of our lives. When we originally met with Connor and Alix, we requested a video that was emotional but upbeat. We wanted to relive those tender moments, while being able to laugh and smile at the same time. Y'all... they delivered. There are so many little elements that they included that we overlooked or didn't intentionally do, that we now can cherish for the rest of our lives. I cannot wait to share this video with our future generations. Our grandchildren will hear the stories of having a wedding during a pandemic but more than that, how cool their grandparents were in the year 2020.
Bottom line - we recommend Connor and Alix to anyone who wants to have the absolute best wedding video ever. Acts of Adventure, thank you for bringing our wedding vision to life. Thank you for capturing every tender moment and more than that, thank you for being two of the kindest individuals in the wedding industry.

You're so appreciated!
