Cozy Surprise Colorado Proposal in Jefferson

Getting to capture Ben and Maeve’s surprise Colorado proposal in Jefferson was an absolute dream! Ben wanted to keep things intimate and low-key while still sweeping Maeve off her feet—so he planned the perfect moment right outside the back door of their cozy A-frame cabin, The Triangle Cabin, with nothing but fresh mountain air and endless views.

These two first met in July 2021 after matching on Hinge. Maeve had just moved to Colorado the year before, and after a few messages, Ben convinced her to go on a first date. A four-hour night filled with tacos, churros, and margaritas quickly turned into ten dates over the next few weeks. Now, 3.5 years later (or 3, depending on who you ask!), they live together in Denver with their cat Tuesday—named after the day they first met. From the very start, their story has been filled with adventure, laughter, and the kind of love that makes a surprise proposal feel like the perfect next chapter.

Ben & Maeve’s Cozy Surprise Colorado Proposal in Jefferson

Ben’s surprise Colorado proposal to Maeve was nothing short of amazing. Right outside the backdoor of their cozy A-frame cabin in Jefferson, he dropped to one knee with the mountains stretching behind them. The moment was so intimate and full of the best kind of emotions. Maeve’s reaction said it all. And their outfits? Absolutely perfect for the setting. The earthy, neutral tones of their coats blended seamlessly with the golden winter landscapes, while Maeve’s emerald green sweater added the perfect pop of color against the muted backdrop.

And let’s talk about Maeve’s ring. So stunning! She worked with The Diamond Reserve to create a custom design that felt uniquely her, and they went above and beyond to bring her vision to life. The result? A stunning, one-of-a-kind piece that will make her think of this day every time she looks at it!
