Clinton Gulch Dam Reservoir, Colorado
About 30 minutes away from Breckenridge, Colorado is the perfect backdrop for a dreamy Colorado proposal. Clinton Gulch Dam Reservoir offers mountains, water and the pine trees the Colorado Rockys are known for.
Meet the couple:
Tim had been dreaming of a proposal like this since February. In fact, it’s the third romantic proposal he planned to ask Bindhu to be the love of his life. Why so many proposals? Not because he said no, but because COVID-19 hit. Tim lives in New Jersey, and his state kept issuing travel bans and stay at home orders in an effort to stop the spread and keep everyone safe. Every time he made a propsal plan, that location would be on the red list. Bindhu currently lives in Texas, but was visiting Colorado with her family to celebrate her sister’s birthday. Tim saw this as the perfect surprise, and he was right! Bindu’s family had plans to go out to dinner that night and encouraged Bindu to get dressed up. When they pulled up to a parking lot next to the Clinton Gulch Dam Reservoir, she was confused but didn’t know what was going on. Even when her family persuaded/pushed her to walk down the dirt path she had no idea a surprise romantic proposal was taking place. While Tim’s brother and best friends hit in the trees nearby, Tim stood on the peninsula, surrounded by a pile of rose petals he brought just for her. There’s a photo that captured Bindu’s face the moment she realizes Tim is the mystery man she’s heading for. After reminiscing on their relationship, Tim got down on one knee and Bindu agreed to spend the rest of her life with him. They celebrated with the family and friends, and then we took their engagement photos so Tim and Bindu can remember this location, moment, and feelings forever!
