The pair got married on March 7, 2015, at the The Equinox Resort & Spa, Manchester, Vermont. The following day, they went to a nearby Bromley Mountain for a day-after photo session with photographer, Lara Woolfson of Studio Nouveau.

Newlyweds, Lauren and Aidan Donahue from Boston, first met while skiing in Vermont in February 2010.

The couple spent their first weekends away together spent skiing, and every year since they've been together, they have done one major ski trip out west to places such as Jackson Hole, Wyoming.

It came as no surprise that they decided to incorporate their shared passion for skiiing in their wedding which took place earlier this month.

The pair got married on March 7, 2015, at the The Equinox Resort & Spa, Manchester, Vermont. The following day, they went to a nearby Bromley Mountain for a day-after photo session with photographer, Lara Woolfson of Studio Nouveau.

"When we planned our wedding, we wanted the reception to be close to a mountain so that we could ski after," Lauren told The Huffington Post. "We originally wanted to take a run the day of our wedding, but it was a logistical nightmare. Doing it the day after made much more sense and it was so fun to put the dress back on and go out with a bang at the end of the weekend."

Woolfson rode the chairlift with the bride and groom, and then spent the day running up and down the mountain in her boots, snapping photos of the newlyweds skiing and snowboarding.

"One of the best parts was getting well wishes and cheers from everyone on the mountain," Lauren said.

"Everyone was so friendly and congratulatory. On our first lift ride there was a group of little skiers on the trail below and one of them shrieked, 'Oh my gosh! I think they're getting married!' Their excitement and awe was so adorable and really special."

The couple are now enjoying what they call their 'surf and turf' honeymoon. They spent the first part of the trip drinking cocktails on the tropical beaches of Turks and Caicos and the second part is now being spent skiing in the Swiss Alps.
