How you feel matters! 

Honestly probably more  than you think!  An adventure requires time and time well spent. What would you eat? Where would you be? What scenery is surrounding you? What adventure would you take together? Dream up that perfect wedding day transformed into a custom elopement experience instead! Wedding day's are usually 6, 8, 10 or even 12 hours of coverage. Elopement days have a lot to say in them too.

How do I know how much photography coverage I'll need?

01.

First up is a kick-ass photographer of course. A florist, hair & makeup artists, officiant, event designers, planners (unless photographer helps), cater, accommodation, activities, transportation and unique services.  Before you pick a date make sure it's far enough in advance to plan ahead and find the people you want to book. Step one is booking a photographer and or planner up to 15 months before!!

What vendors may I need for my elopement?

02.

Tofino & Ucluelet, Jordon River, Strathcona Park, Mt Washington, and Victoria. Truth be told there are so many hidden gems on the island and many different places that would be wonderful depending on the vibe your after.

Where is the most popular places to elope on Vancouver Island?

03.

Yes, but there may be some more required steps to get legally married here in Canada and in British Columbia.

Can I elope to Vancouver Island If I'm not from Canada?

04.

That is totally okay! I like to be involved so I cant have complete understanding to make sure the people that work with me have a great experience. If you want no help whatsoever, I do not offer not being involved in some way.

What if i don't want any planning help?

05.

No... but... yes!!! There are some spots you can drive up to and enjoy. However, those spots are usually more populated and less private. Most super epic spots require a bit of a hike. There are plenty awesome choices where no hiking is needed but that means there will be more chance for people being there too. It's about how you feel when your "IN" your experience anyways.

Do you have to hike to get to cool spots?
