Happy five years to the love of my life. Can you b

Happy five years to the love of my life. Can you believe all that we’ve done in this time? Five years ago we ran off to Iceland, got married in a sea of lupines, and chased a rainbow by a waterfall. I look forward to every adventure still ahead of us. Thank you for loving me and for being the best husband. You are truly amazing, and my favorite person to do this life with. 🤍 Iceland, June 2021

When your elopement day includes: cake before vows

When your elopement day includes: cake before vows, hiking in the rain, and a tea ceremony by the lake ☕🌲 Erin + Ryan started their morning cozy in a cabin, then embraced every bit of that moody PNW weather for the most epic lakeside elopement. Dancing in the mist, saying ‘I do’ with mountains in the distance, and ending with tea together—this day was everything 💕 #pnwelopement #washingtonelopement #adventureelopement #pnwelopementphotographer #washingtonelopementphotographer #elopementphotographer #rainyelopement #pacificnorthwestelopement #mountainelopement

There’s something about getting married in a place

There’s something about getting married in a place that feels like another planet 🌿✨ Katherine + Mitchel’s Hoh Rainforest ceremony was intimate, emotional, and surrounded by the most epic moss-covered trees you’ve ever seen. This is what PNW elopement dreams are made of! #olympicnationalparkelopement #hohrainforestelopement #pnwelopement #pnwelopementphotographer #washintonelopementphotographer #wanderingweddings

Hi, I’m Jaclyn—thru-hiker, en plein air painter, adventure seeker & professional third-wheel to the world’s coolest couples. I started this journey living in a van with my husband Ryan back in 2017. 200 elopements later, I know exactly how precious these moments are. Because I’ve stood where you’re standing. Now I get to help couples like you plan days that feel the same—bold, authentic, and so incredibly YOU. Whether it’s a PNW mountaintop or somewhere totally wild, I’m here to guide you through it all. Let’s make this the adventure of your life 🏔️✨

Sometimes the moody days are the most magical ones

Sometimes the moody days are the most magical ones 🌧️✨ Gretchen and Zach embraced every bit of the San Juan’s rainy, atmospheric vibes for their waterfall elopement. Saying “I do” next to a rushing waterfall, ring exchange tucked under the trees, autumn colors glowing through the mist, and mountain peaks disappearing into dramatic clouds. Ended the night the best way possible - dessert by the lake in the back of their car, soaking in every perfect, moody moment. This is what elopement dreams are made of 🍂💕

One year ago, Maribell + Alejandro had the most ep

One year ago, Maribell + Alejandro had the most epic wedding day ever! 🥂 Started above the clouds on a mountaintop for sunrise personal vows, moved to the beach for ceremony and cake with family, then ended at Ruby Beach with sunset champagne. Olympic National Park really said ‘let’s give them EVERYTHING’ and I am so here for it! Happy one year to this adventure-loving duo who knows how to celebrate right ✨🏔️🌊 #OlympicNationalParkWedding #WashingtonWedding #MountainWedding #BeachWedding #AdventureWedding
