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.
