Also head over to the fabulous POPSUGAR. blog for more!
What a knockout combo… THIS Iceland Wedding Dress and THESE Sorel Boots!
…and their Iceland Wedding Welcome Bags?! #yesplease!
Because our adventure weddings in Iceland begin early… We like to do the first look before we head out! Devin adored Crystal in her dress!
These two and their guests were so badass! They didn’t care that it was raining, windy, or that they needed to cross some glacier rivers either!
Iceland Glacier Weddings make me totally SWOON! …and these two make it look easy!
Sometimes there are unexpected Iceland wedding guests!
These two were an Iceland wedding photographers dream come true!
…an adventure wedding in Iceland wouldn’t be complete without a traditional BBQ of hot dogs and all their toppings!
Crystal and Devin ventured to some beautiful secret waterfalls throughout their Iceland wedding day too!
Then it was like they beamed themselves to MARS!
Crystal + Devin felt a special pull to Reynisfjara Black Sand Beach. Normally we do not adventure to tourist locations but we made an exception for the dreaminess below!
As the sun set, the adventure drew to a close and we retreated back to Hotel Ranga in Hella Iceland for their intimate wedding reception!
As unpredictable as Iceland can be, we tried to launch wish lanterns but sadly the wind one, so we switched to sparklers for their send off!
Congratulations Devin + Crystal!
What an incredibly unforgettable adventure wedding in Iceland you shared!

Lapland Wedding: Kavoos + Diana (Part 1)
Posted on March 2, 2017
Kavoos and Diana, had the burning desire to hold an adventurous elopement in Lapland! Which is quite brave considering they are California natives and during winter northern Finland is well below freezing. But sometimes a location and the opportunity to see Northern Lights is all it takes to muster up courage to have an epically snowy incredible experience!
During the months of December and January, Lapland is in full swing of “polar nights,” which means the sun doesn’t actually rise and the “blue light” daylight hours are between 1-2 hours a day. Our adventure wedding planning team, crafted an epic adventure wedding day at the Kakslauttanen Igloo Resort (the famed igloo hotel).
But! Since there adventurous elopement in Lapland was so BEAUTIFUL… we need break it into 2 blog posts! So today we will share with you their stunning ceremony and first half of their adventure wedding. Then stay tuned next week for the second and most adventurous half (hello dog sledding, styled reception for two, and reindeer Northern Lights hunting!).
With a smile, Ann Peters + Team (Lapland Wedding Planner + Photographer)
Kakslauttanen Igloo Resort offers a uniquely beautiful experience in the Kelo-Glass Igloo Cabins! Imagine waking up in one of these for our adventurous wedding in Finland! Kavoos and Diana did during their elopement adventure in Lapland and savored every second of it!
The Polar Nights in Lapland are an amazing sight! although the sun doesn’t not rise, if it’s clear, you get a “mock”sunrise like this during the beginning of January! So dream for your Finnish elopement!
These two would make any Finland wedding photographer swoon! So in love!
Just because you decide to elopement, does not mean you should skimp on the details! How stunning is this Lapland wedding ceremony setup?!
Ohhhh these petals!!! My favorite shade of PINK! Thanks Flyboy Naturals!
A glas teepee makes such a beautiful Lapland wedding ceremony location!
Northern Lights wedding photos can always be possible during a Lapland winter wedding!
The Lapland wedding image below might go down as one of my top FAVORITE images, ever! So much snowy goodness and beauty!

New Zealand Adventure Wedding
Posted on December 15, 2016
When I caught the travel bug, one of the first countries I spent an extended amount of time in was in Southern New Zealand. For a thrill seeker like me, it was the mecca of adventure.
Specifically, in the South Island, I found to be a place that I could do a skydive at sunrise, be bungee jumping into a canyon before lunch, ice climbing or heli-skiing on a glacier in the afternoon, and then choose to either go on a hike or wine tasting at night. It had everything, I ever wished for. Throw in some cool caves, waterfalls, pristine beaches, unforgettable lush hikes, and landscapes that went on for days and I was in the epitome of happiness!
When you think dynamic landscape and endless adventure options for your destination wedding adventures, I sure hope New Zealand is on that list!
One of my obsessions to it has always been that the landscape is so diverse no matter the season. This fun fact makes New Zealand an ideal destination wedding adventure location! Can you imagine yourself getting married in New Zealand in one of the following locations?
- Abel Tasman
- Fox Glacier
- Mount Aspiring National Park Wedding
- Milford Sound
- Lake Taupo
- Lake Matheson
- Mount Ngauruhoe
- Golden Sand Beaches
- Incredible Caves
- New Zealand Wine Country Weddings!
- Motuoapa
- The 90 Mile Beach
- Cute Coves
- Putangirua Pinnacles
- Fabulous Falls
- Thermal Pools
- Marlborough Sounds
- The Shire (yes… remember Lord of the Rings was filmed here)!
Having a New Zealand adventure wedding or elopement will have everyone back home swooning in jealousy! We would love to help customize some EPIC NZ adventure wedding options for you throughout the North and South Island of New Zealand. Please contact us for more information on how to get started!

Norway Wedding Geirangerfjord | Liz + Mike
Posted on September 27, 2016
Thanks for joining us for Part 2 of Liz and Mike’s magical Norway wedding in the Geirangerfjord! If you missed Part 1 of their Norway wedding at Hotel Alexandra, head back HERE to see. I’m going to go minimal on my commentary today because the photos will blow you out of the water!
One of my all time favorites from Mike and Liz’s Norway destination wedding day is below. Magical, just magical, right?! The Geiranger area is full of secret spots like these!
Our second stop on our Norway adventure wedding schedule was this fabulous point. Mike and Liz did a little fun hike to get to the top of this rock formation and the rest was beautiful history!
A summer wedding in Norway in this Geirangerfjord area will still carry a snow in the mountains. Driving through this valley area from Loen, is one of my favorite drives in Norway. How perfect for your Norway wedding, right?!
After a small sketchy hike, Mike and Liz found their way to this amazing spot overlooking the Geirangerfjord in all of it’s glory.I assure you the spot was 100% safe and I was probably in more danger than they were because of my angle =)
These two were the perfect combo for this incredible Norway wedding photo stop!
Total magazine cover, right?! Leaves me breathless.
This couple and this view! The heavens opened for this amazing Norway wedding in the Geirangerfjord!
There amazing group of 16 guests travelled from California for this surprise Norway wedding adventure! …and they were in total awe all day!
As we made our way through the Geirangerfjord and down to the docks, we stopped for a few minutes for a sweet champagne toast!
I found myself addicted to sooo many spots throughout this Geirangerfjord area! The character and the charm were off the charts!
When we were Norway wedding planning with Liz and Mike, they wanted to take their guests not just on a experience, but a super fun activity to do together during the day. Their favorite option we proposed was a 90 minute boat ride through the inspiring Geirangerfjord.
Norway Wedding Photos with the famed Seven Sisters Waterfall in the background! Swoon!
After the Geirangerfjord wedding boat adventure concluded, we were off to one of our final stops which included a beautiful mountain view on one side and sweet little Norwegian waterfall on the other!
Nothing better than a bride and groom being super adventurous on their wedding day skipping over rocks and water! Mike and Liz were willing to go whereever for the best Norway wedding photos!
I’m totally OBSESSED with this waterfall in the Geirangerfjord! How perfect for a destination wedding in Norway, right?!
Mike + Liz, We know Norway will forever be a part of your love story and souls. But we challenge you to come back to this intoxicating country each year on your Norway wedding anniversary to explore a new part of the country as your love grows!
