Suns, Moons & Crystals:An Olympic National Park Elopement This blog should be titled: Frog and Toad Go on an Adventure and Elope. For these two Alexes, Frog (boy Alex) and Toad (girl Alex) is their thing. Partly because boy Alex runs a very successful poison dart frog breeding business. Did you know that poison dart…
An October Scotland Elopement on the Isle of Skye Racing down single-track roads. Dodging the occasional highland cow or sheep, exploring castle ruins. Braving Scotland’s squalls of weather. Catching sight of the Hogwarts Express. Adrianna and Cam’s multi-day elopement adventure included that much and more with their first trip out of the United States! sam@samstarns.com…
Lord of the Rings Themed Wedding in the Redwoods One of the things I love about elopements is that couples feel more agency to make their wedding day what they want it to be. Anim and Mariah chose to listen to their hobbit hearts and infuse Lord of the Rings into their elopement among the…

Magical May Elopement in Olympic National Park Under near constant cover of clouds and rain… wait, that’s not right. At least, it wasn’t when Brooke and Derek said their vows on the Olympic Peninsula of Washington. If I could conjur up the perfect weather, it would have been this day. The Hoh Rainforest and Rialto…
Full-Circle Ireland Elopement with castles, cliffs and Guinness in Killarney and Dingle Growing up, Peter always knew his Irish heritage from his grandfather, having heard stories, tales, and being instilled with a sense of culture.

Moody Viking Elopement In Scotland with Castle Lightsaber Battle Scotland was the first time Daniel or Marquessa had ever traveled out of the United States, and I’m not sure any future trip could beat the week of exploration, magic, and wonder they experienced in Scotland.
