After a quiet morning of sipping coffee together, B & R departed on a private helicopter ride up to secret canyons. They pointed to tall peaks and waterfalls, squealing with excitement on the ride up. We landed at a secluded glacier, where they shared their vows amidst the deep blue pools. They went from belly laughs to tears as the sun peaked out from behind the clouds. B cheered on R as she took a celebratory sip of glacial water after signing their marriage license. The day ended with the pilot catching the bouquet!

Frequently Asked Questions
If you haven't noticed yet, Alaska is huge, and everywhere has it's own unique charm and feel. With that said, I am willing to go on record and say that Juneau, the Capital, is the best place to elope. It's a happy mix between the tiny towns that only have one grocery store, and the larger cities that honestly just feel like another city. My top reasons for thinking Juneau is the best are; accessibility and proximity (you're smack dab in the mountains, and have 360 views of towering mountains), it has it all (glaciers, lakes, waterfalls, fields, mountains, ocean, beaches...etc.), it's a hidden gem in Alaska (not even all Alaskans know about it!), and the people are amazing (everywhere you go, you'll be welcomed by incredible people). While the bigger cities are beautiful and have benefits, for a couple who wants intimate adventure why wouldn't you go somewhere where no matter where you are you can be alone in a forest, on a mountain or beach within 5 minutes?
Considering that our state is so large and we have many different climates this question can be addressed more specifically as we plan. However, something to note, Alaska is not buried in snow all year, and it can get pretty warm here! Southeast Alaska is a temperate rainforest, that means we get moody fog rolling through the mountains, extra vibrant colors on glaciers and mountain sides, and we get a lot of rain, so everything is lush and green! Interior Alaska is a little more dry, but much colder in the winter. Also, our weather changes as the day goes on many different times, there is a chance you could get all four seasons in one day! With that I recommend packing layers, and waterproof shoes and jackets. I'll provide umbrellas so don't worry about those!
You can get to Alaska one of four ways; (or a mix of a few!)
Airline - (Alaska is the way to go, ask me how to get one ticket free and a free check bag… who can argue with that!).
Ferry - the Alaska Marine Highway, it’s a great way to get to take in the views of Southeast Alaska but be prepared for three days on a small boat, okay food, and no cell service or internet (it actually is a really beautiful trip!) or
Cruise ship - this is the most common way to get to Alaska, and while you time in port may be limited that doesn’t mean your adventure can’t be grand!
Car - this is the option for the most adventurous, and don't forget to pack your passport, you'll have to pass through Canada!
There are many companies that offer helicopter tours to the nearby Glaciers, that is the easiest way to get on a glacier, the other ways include various levels of hikes!
One of my favorite services I provide is sending you several high resolution sneak peeks within 12-24 hours (I truly strive for same day) of your adventure session or wedding. I call this photo tax, your reward for being photographed! Plus we are all excited to see and share those photos! The full gallery will be finished within 2-3 weeks
It's totally up to you! Alaska can have muddy trails and the Muskeg is pretty squishy, therefore, if you choose not to I recommend getting some nice rain jackets or warm sweaters (think Patagonia or similar) that are white and black/dark grey or blue that you can hike in. You will need comfortable and waterproof hiking shoes either way. Changing when you reach the viewpoint is an option! I have a pop-up tent if you prefer more privacy!
It's totally up to you! I recommend no more than 10 people, however, it can absolutely just be the two of you also! If you're bringing guests I recommend that you book at least the Full day package so that you get plenty of time to adventure just the two of you as well as celebrate with your loved ones!
