What is and adventure elopement?
An adventure elopement is an outdoor, intimate wedding that focuses on your relationship more than anything else. Adventure elopements are more than weddings with breathtaking views and bouquets in backpacks. Rather, it’s a one-of-a-kind experience that forgoes the stress of a typical wedding in favor of untamed love and adventure.
Why I love helping couples craft an all day adventure elopement…
Looking back on your romantic, daring wedding day will be a foundation of your marriage as the years pass.
I love to explore and I have an endless list of amazing locations I have fallen in love with. I am excited to document you intimate wedding or adventurous elopement! If you plan to hike into the Mountains with your future spouse to exchange private vows or have a family accessible intimate micro wedding at the beach or a smaller venue, and I will be there to capture every moment of your grandest adventure yet!
