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)!

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.

T + S’s elopement was an L.A. dream come true! Bright and early in the magic of a spring sunrise, this couple said “I do” on a sandy canvas with the Pacific as their backdrop. It was like the beach itself gave a standing ovation. But here’s the twist – it wasn’t just a ceremony; it was a full-on beach picnic extravaganza! Think fluffy blankets, mimosas, and avocado toast, all while seagulls provided the soundtrack. They didn’t just exchange rings; they exchanged bites of sweets too. The sun painted the sky in all shades of “happy” as they danced on the shore and laughed like they owned the beach. From vows to views to bites, this LA elopement was a love-fueled adventure that beach dreams are made of.

What a whirlwind an adventure! So, get this – K + A met 8 years ago back in Orlando (where they still live!) through mutual friends, and guess what? They just pulled off the most epic Key West elopement ever, and get this: in just a month! Talk about spontaneous and meant-to-be. So, they kicked off their big day chilling and getting ready separately at the Pier House Resort and Spa, getting all dolled up for the adventure ahead. And you won’t believe it, but they hit up the Key Lime Pie Bakery, diving into some killer Key Lime pie (we got the coconut one, so good!) before heading to the Hemingway House – priorities, right?
