Let me tell you about T and J’s wedding at Eden Gardens State Park last fall – it was like something out of a fairytale, seriously! The weather was on our side, not too hot, not too humid, just perfect. After the scorcher of a summer we’ve had, it was amazing!

What an epic Saturday spent with J and B! It’s safe to say it’s one for the books!

Their day kicked off in true cat-parent fashion, hanging out with their fur babies at home before diving headfirst into the wedding festivities to come that afternoon.

If you’re thinking about eloping in a beautiful place somewhere in the world you’ve undoubtedly come across the term “adventure elopement”. Despite being certain you want to do something out of the box for your wedding day, once again you’re being boxed in by this new term. Now you’re trying to navigate where you fall into the spectrum of outdoorsy-ness and getting lost in a sea of options. Enter ME. Your little beacon of light. Guiding you through the bullshit and confusion towards a day that is simply defined by: “doing-whatever-you-want-to-do elopement” (…I’ll work on a less wordy definition later)! 

Love knows no season, and for R and M, December became the canvas for their breathtaking engagement session bathed in the warm hues of a Gulf Coast sunset!

Alaska’s vast landscape is brimming with electric blue glaciers, sprawling wildflowers, aurora borealis lighting up the skies, oceans full of whales, lush mountains teeming with wildlife, and truly undisturbed locations. Oh, and it’s all a domestic flight away. There is so much to do and see. And memories to create. If that’s not the perfect destination for a rustic outdoor elopement, I don’t know what is! 

On a beautifully overcast day in Seward, B and T’s Alaskan beach elopement was nothing short of enchanting! Nestled in cozy cabins right across the street from the shoreline, they got ready surrounded by tall trees. Then walked to the beach to exchange their vows with the majestic mountains standing tall across the water, a silent witness of their vows. What made their day even more special was the fact that they were talented florists from Utah who had lovingly crafted their own floral arrangements together. Their online meeting had blossomed into a deep connection that brought them to Alaska, and their elopement was a testament to their shared passion for flowers and each other. Against the serene backdrop of the Alaskan coast, B and T’s love story unfolded with a unique charm that perfectly matched the rugged beauty of their surroundings.

K and A’s NOLA winter elopement at Race + Religious was a dream come true! With the enchanting backdrop of the city’s historic charm and the venue’s exquisite setting, their special day was nothing short of magical. The highlight of the evening was the stunning dinner table setup, adorned with lush florals and elegant tableware, creating an atmosphere that was as romantic as it was delightful. As they shared their vows under the winter sky, followed by an intimate dinner, you could feel the warmth of their love lighting up the chilly New Orleans night. It was a winter elopement to remember, filled with love, laughter, and endless joy!

Buckle up, because B + A took “wild” to a whole new level! Out in the heart of the desert, they brought their vintage bronco, their trusty campsite-on-wheels, and their dirt bikes for an adrenaline-packed session that’s like something out of a rockin’ adventure movie. With dust kicking up around them, they looked like the ultimate desert daredevils – conquering the landscape with a flair that’s just plain awesome. Imagine it: the sun dipping low, casting a warm glow on their laughter as they posed by the bronco and revved up those dirt bikes. It’s like they’re writing their own desert anthem, and the cacti are dancing along. From the sandy trails to the starlit campfire, this session was like a high-five to all things wild and free.

Las Vegas, the city that never sleeps, witnessed a love that unfolded in the early hours of the morning. D and M, two adventurous souls, decided to tie the knot in a way that was as vibrant and unique as the city itself.

Bringing your kids along for your elopement doesn’t mean you need to sacrifice intimacy or a dream-worthy experience—it just means you’ll need to do some extra planning! Having them there for your elopement is an incredibly beautiful thing. By making them an integral part of your elopement you’re fostering an even deeper connection as a family unit and modeling a healthy romantic relationship for them.
