GLACIER HELICOPTER ELOPEMENT IN ALASKA
Looking for a once-in-a-lifetime outdoor elopement experience? Do a glacier helicopter elopement in Alaska! Jon + Carolyn originally planned on eloping in Juneau during a cruise stop, but the pandemic caused cancellation. We pivoted and hooked up with Alaska Helicopter Tours at Knik River Lodge for an epic tour onto a glacier and mountaintop. These two got ready in a yurt together as it drizzled rain outside. Soon we were inside and briefed for safety.

The helicopter ride was INCREDIBLE. Blue pools dotted the jagged black + white glacier. It was expansive and made us feel so tiny. We scoured the pools from above for the right one. Once we landed, we got our crampons on for grip on the ice and explored around. It was just us and the pilot. So quiet; no stress and no expectations. I even signed as the officiant! I’m ordained and can legally marry you in most U.S. states.
If a helicopter elopement sounds like a dream to you, let’s team up and make it happen! Reach out to me here about it. I coordinate it all for you and make it easy to show up and enjoy your day without the stress of a tightly-packed schedule, hundreds of eyes on you, and exhausting little performances all day.





“We might be a little bias but we think Emily is the best in the biz! We contacted her when we we first starting to envision our Alaska elopement and she made our dreams a reality! And by that I mean she helped us figure out the entire experience, not just the photos.
We knew we wanted to get married in Alaska on a glacier, but had never been there and had absolutely NO knowledge of the area and she made it happen! AND THE PICTURES…. just unreal!!
She was so attentive to every detail and so professional yet also down to earth and just fun to be around. She put us both at ease on what could have been a stressful day. I cannot recommend her enough. Book her now!!”
