Rachel Franco and Alexander Oyen planned a quiet elopement on top of Flagstaff Mountain in Colorado, with just the two of them and a photographer. The sunrise ceremony was supposed to be simple, peaceful, and completely their own.

Instead, the couple ended up with two unexpected guests who wandered right into the moment and made the day even more memorable. What started as an intimate wedding quickly turned into a story about a pair of very friendly mountain crashers.

And once the dogs showed up, the ceremony took a turn neither of them could have predicted.

“We had actually just finished making our vows to each other and had our first kiss as a married couple, and as I was pulling away from the kiss, I was like, ‘I think something is on me?’” Franco shared.

“I opened my eyes and there was the most gorgeous husky there.” The two wedding crashers were Freya and her brother, Bruno.

Since the newlyweds love dogs, they were happy to have them as their witnesses.

Speaking of wedding chaos, check out the best man whose girlfriend threatened to break up.

“This was mind-blowing to us,” Franco said.

She further added, “It really did feel like the universe was congratulating us or telling us that this was right. All we ever want is for dogs to run up to us and interrupt our lives, and this just felt hilarious and perfect.”

Although the dogs' owner was very much aware that his dogs were interrupting a private moment, he tried calling them back. However, the dogs paid no heed to him and decided to join the ceremony and the photoshoot anyway.

“This was mind-blowing to us,” Franco said.

“When she first ran up to us, she leaned against my legs and just kind of gave over her body weight in the hopes of pets, which we obviously were down for,” Franco said.

“She ran over to us several times to sniff my flowers and sniff the train of my dress.”

The presence of dogs felt very welcoming to the groom as well.

He is afraid of heights, and the dogs helped him calm down. “I think it made him comfortable to see these dogs just kind of running free and having fun in this area they were clearly familiar with,” Franco shared.

Franco delights in the memory of her wedding and the wedding crashers and will forever cherish it. “I just savored our intimate ceremony and the time we spent up there,” Franco said.

“My husband looked so handsome, and I was really just happy and honored to be there with him.”
