Getting ready to elope in Iceland can be both exciting and overwhelming.
As someone who’s been in the wedding and elopement industry for going on 18 years, I’ve seen both sides of wedding planning- planning a large, conventional wedding and planning an Iceland elopement abroad. I can tell you first hand that planning an elopement is FAR less stressful and WAY more fin than planning a conventional wedding filled with guests the couple typically doesn’t really know, managing family and friends expectations, and paying for shit they don’t even want.
Which, if I were to guess, is exactly why you ended up on this page- because you also decided to say ‘absolutely not’ to planning the big conventional wedding day and ‘yes-so-fucking-lutely’ to the elopement planning, instead.

There’s something so special about an elopement in Iceland that is just the couple, in a private and meaningful ceremony, overlooking a beautiful fjord.
I started photographing weddings almost 20 years ago (what, how) and I’ve been involved in my fair share of wedding days. Over 300, actually. I’ve been a part of weddings with 650 guests, down to just the usual 150 to 200 guests. I’ve been side-by-side with the couples in every type of wedding from the super-luxury where the flowers alone cost over 6-figures (yes, over $100,000 on flowers), to micro-weddings in quirky breweries, to weddings in theme parks.
