How to plan an Elopement or Adventure Wedding?
You've decided on an outdoor-focused wedding experience, but the how-to part might be a bit fuzzy.
Chances are, you've scrolled through the internet and stumbled upon jaw-dropping photos of couples tying the knot on mountain peaks, beneath waterfalls, or perhaps in a desert. Now, you're left pondering, "How on earth do I plan such an outdoor extravaganza? Where do I even kick off the planning?" Well, that's where we step in!
So, how do we exactly do this?
Sit back, relax, and grab your favorite drink (ours is Micheladas) because this is going to be the best part of planning an elopement or adventure wedding.
Planning before your wedding day
Location Guides
After filling out our customized questionnaire, we kick off the location process! This is where the magic happens. We consider all your answers and pinpoint the most epic locations that fit your criteria. No location guide is the same because each couple is unique in their wants and needs!
Unlimited Communication
Each of our couples gets unlimited communication, whether that is through Zoom, phone calls, or text messages. We are here for you!
Timeline Building
This is where we need your trust! With numerous elopements under our belt, we've got the lowdown on how much time certain activities take and how to capture those epic shots you brought us on board for! We'll always be straight with you and give the heads up if some things on your wishlist might not fit into our time together, or if your dream location isn't the best bet for that time of year. If we say no, we'll always spill the beans on why, and it's all in your best interest!
Planning Resources
Vendor & Accommodation
After you've settled on your final location, grab your drinks and kick up your legs because we'll handle the rest—finding the perfect vendors and accommodation for you. Think florists, makeup artists, hotels, food, and activities. Your only job is to pick the vendors you fancy and book them. Want to be more hands-on with planning? No problem! We love working together as a team.
What to expect on your wedding day?
Your big day is finally here! After weeks, months, or maybe even a year of planning, it's time to have the best day of your lives together. The coolest thing about planning a wedding with your photographer(s) is that we're already going to be friends before we even meet in real life!
Posing vs Unposed
After talking about trust, let’s be honest! Those Pinterest and Instagram-ready pictures don’t just happen, and there will be some posing. But not to worry! You can expect a 50/50 ratio of posed vs. organic photos, and we'll involve you in our creative thought process to help with the posing. Trust us! When we suggest a pose and say you look fire, we seriously mean it!
Unexpected things happen
No matter how much we plan your big day, stuff can go haywire. The weather plays tricks, folks get fashionably late, Aunt Sue might tear up, and you and your partner might just need a breather. But here's the scoop—none of it matters if you're enjoying yourselves and soaking in the awesome moments. When things don't go as scripted, our game plan is to keep it real, chat with you guys, and have some backup plans ready to roll.

When it comes to those wedding albums, it's like giving your special day the VIP treatment.

This is what it looks like to run wild on your wedding day!
