The main difference between adventure elopements and weddings is the scale and focus of the celebration. Weddings typically involve larger guest lists, elaborate setups, and formal ceremonies, whereas adventure elopements are more intimate and centered around the couple's connection to nature and shared experiences. Adventure elopements often take place in stunning outdoor locations, allowing couples to exchange vows amidst breathtaking scenery and embark on adventurous activities that reflect their personalities and passions.

When planning your trip to Iceland, you'll fly into Keflavik airport, which is conveniently located about 45 minutes away from Reykjavik and close to the famous Blue Lagoon. For accommodations, I suggest spending a couple of nights in Reykjavik, where you can find great options on Airbnb. After exploring the city, make your way to Vik, located about a 2-hour drive to the South of Iceland. Here, you have the choice of staying in a hostel, Airbnb, or treating yourself to a luxurious hotel for a truly memorable experience. Vik offers stunning natural wonders and is the perfect base for exploring the captivating South part of the island.

Elopements are typically booked around 8-10 months in advance, just like traditional weddings. However, depending on the location, permits, and your specific situation, you have the flexibility to book at any time. Once you're ready to secure your elopement date, a deposit/retainer is required upon signing the contract. The remaining balance will be due only one month prior to your elopement date, and I'll send you an electronic invoice with friendly reminders to keep you informed. To get started, simply fill out the contact form, and I'll be in touch within 48 hours to set up a phone call and discuss your elopement day. Even if you don't have many plans or a solid idea yet, that's absolutely fine – it's the perfect time to start crafting the elopement of your dreams together!

You'll receive a short film trailer and a beautiful 3-4 minute elopement film, complemented by a collection of stunning photographs. The more adventurous your elopement, with excursions, multiple locations, and activities, the greater the content we'll capture for your film and Instagram images. There's no limit to the footage we'll film or photographs we'll take; our goal is to provide you with the perfect film and images. Rest assured, the final film will be presented in stunning 4k quality, featuring breathtaking drone footage (subject to location and weather conditions). Moreover, all images will be expertly edited and fully sized, making them suitable for printing on canvas or sharing on Instagram with equal brilliance.

Iceland offers an array of breathtaking landscapes and unique natural phenomena that make it an ideal destination for elopements. If you're looking to capture the mesmerizing Northern Lights, late fall is a recommended time to visit. While the weather may be colder, the opportunity to witness the dancing lights in the night sky makes it a truly magical experience. However, if you prefer milder weather and want to take advantage of the extraordinary phenomenon of the midnight sun, late June to mid-July is the perfect time to elope in Iceland. During this period, you'll have 24 hours of daylight, allowing ample time to explore and capture the stunning landscapes bathed in ethereal light. It's also the time when the lupine flower fields are in full bloom, offering a vibrant and picturesque backdrop for your photographs. Additionally, late June marks the opening of the H roads, granting access to more remote and stunning locations for your elopement. Whether you choose the captivating Northern Lights of late fall or the enchanting midnight sun of late June, eloping in Iceland during these preferred times ensures you'll have the opportunity to capture Iceland's dramatic beauty while avoiding the summer crowds. Just remember to dress warmly and prepare accordingly for the colder temperatures during late fall.

Iceland is often referred to as the land of fire and ice, showcasing a mesmerizing blend of blazing volcanic eruptions, black sand beaches, vast fields of lupine flowers, and towering glaciers that seem to touch the clouds. The captivating landscape features numerous enchanting waterfalls, including the famous Skógafoss and Svartifoss. Choosing to reside in the charming town of Vik, located in South Iceland, allows easy access to all these breathtaking locations within a short drive. With such a diverse array of picturesque spots, there are endless possibilities for your elopement ceremony. As the person behind both your elopement film and photography, I'm also here to assist you in planning every detail to ensure you have the best elopement experience. Your satisfaction and joy are my utmost priority, and I am dedicated to creating unforgettable memories for your special day.

When traveling to Iceland, it's essential to be well-prepared for its ever-changing weather conditions. Even during the summer season with 23 hours of daylight, it can still get cold and chilly, so bringing layers of clothing is crucial. Additionally, pack waterproof gear to get up close to waterfalls, as rain is common in Iceland. Staying dry will ensure a more enjoyable experience. While your regular footwear is suitable for most activities, it's advisable to bring hiking boots for places that aren't easily accessible. If you plan on capturing photos near waterfalls or visiting the Blue Lagoon, consider bringing a waterproof casing for your phone, as the blue water can potentially damage your device. Don't forget to pack an international plug adapter to charge your gear, and before you go, check with your phone provider to ensure you have proper service coverage during your time in Iceland. Being well-equipped and informed will help you make the most of your Icelandic adventure!
