Eloping is one of the most exciting and meaningful decisions you can make as a couple. It’s a chance to focus entirely on your love story, free from the expectations and pressures of a traditional wedding. Whether you envision saying your vows on a mountaintop, a sunlit beach, or in the heart of a bustling city, eloping offers the ultimate freedom to create a day that feels authentically yours. This guide will walk you through elopement planning, helping you craft an unforgettable experience.

A and W’s whirlwind two-day elopement was a wild Alaskan adventure from start to finish! They kicked things off with exploring on day 1, checking out their ceremony location. Day 2 was their jaw-dropping wedding ceremony set against the cozy cabins of Hatchers Pass near the small town of Palmer, Alaska. The love in the air was palpable as they exchanged vows amidst the rustic charm of the cabins. But they weren’t content with just that – these lovebirds craved the extraordinary! So, they hopped on a helicopter ride, zooming through the Alaskan skies to a glacier, where they felt on top of the world and in love like never before. A and W’s decision to move to Alaska originally for W’s job turned into a love affair with the Last Frontier, and A, the realtor extraordinaire, ensured that they found a home as unique as their love story. With Alaska as their backdrop and each other as their adventure, their two-day elopement was an unforgettable celebration of love and the wild wonders of the north!

Last October, H and A embarked on a journey that was both deeply personal and profoundly beautiful, celebrating their love with an intimate elopement in Zion National Park. Their day was filled with meaningful moments, stunning landscapes, and a touch of their shared passion for Star Wars!

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)! 

Why elope in Greece? I think the better question is…why not? The remarkable history, mouth-water cuisine, breathtaking architecture, and the incredible Mediterranean climate. And the vibrant yet laid-back culture. AND  its drop-dead-gorgeous scenery—I mean the list is never ending. It’s the perfect place for couples that want an experience-filled adventure, but also for lovers simply craving a quiet, luxurious escape. Greece’s ethereal energy makes it a truly romantic elopement destination.

The two days that I spent with V + D up in the Isle of Skye in Scotland exceeded all of my wildest dreams! Getting to know these two and capture their love was truly such an honor. V is originally from Russia and D from Italy! V lived in the states for sometime, which is where she started her professional wedding photography career! Throughout the years she started doing more destination work which lead to her meeting her now husband while she was photographing a wedding in the UK in 2019! How incredible is that?! Their love story is the kind that novels are written about and they knew from the first moments that they were for each other. V + D faced with my trails during the start of their relationship with being long distant (UK to the US!) and then the pandemic hitting, but they showed everyone that they could (and did!) make it work. When you know you know.

There are some people that you just automatically connect with. Nick and Haley are some of those people. From the get go I felt like I had known them forever and knew that even afterwards we would be friends.
