Elopement Packages & Pricing
What is a Wild & Free Elopement?
Your Wild & Free elopement experience will be designed around these 3 values:
- Intention | You get to choose your elopement experience, from who you bring along to how you enjoy the day, to make the most meaningful day!
- Nature | There’s no venue or building that can compare to the magic and wonder of mother nature. Your love story deserves the most breathtaking backdrop ever, one that can only be found outdoors.
- Freedom | This day should reflect the two of you, not the traditions of society. I hold space for your creativity and freedom to design an elopement day that is a true reflection of you.
A Wild & Free Elopement
is for you if…
- You want your elopement to be raw and real--not just a quick ceremony and some posed photos
- You want a day so carefree and full of laughter that you can’t help but love every minute of it
- You want to have an unforgettable experience immersed in nature while reducing the environmental impact of your elopement day
- You want a safe space to focus on what truly matters--your commitment to each other
