Iceland Wedding & Elopement Guide

How to Elope in the Dolomites

We’re so excited and grateful to share that two of our photographs have been selected as winners in Junebug Weddings’ Best of the Best Destination Photos of 2026.

It is always hard to put into words what moments like this mean to us.

These images are not just only about dramatic landscapes or adventurous destinations. They are about trust. About couples who let us guide them through wild weather, rapidly changing light, quiet moments, letting us be (often) the only witnesses of their vows, but everything that makes an elopement feel real.

That trust is the heart of our work.

To have two photographs of only 50 recognized by Junebug means a lot. We are deeply thankful to our couples for letting us be part of such personal days, and for allowing us to create images that carry not only the beauty of a place, but the feeling of being there together.

Thank you to @junebugweddings and the judges for this honor, and congratulations to all the incredible photographers selected this year.

We’re feeling very grateful.

When couples think about a Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon elopement in Iceland, they often imagine dramatic landscapes, glacier views, black sand, and an unforgettable adventure. Haven and Connor’s day had all of that, but what made it truly special was how personal and intentional it felt.

They first visited Iceland in 2023 on a birthday trip and completely fell in love with the island. The landscapes, the atmosphere, and the feeling of being somewhere unlike anywhere else stayed with them long after they returned home. So when they decided to elope, coming back to Iceland felt natural.

One of their drone photographs from Stokksnes Black Sand Beach later won Junebug Weddings’ 2025 Best of the Best Wedding Photos award and an International Wedding Photographer of the Year 2025 Award. But for us, the heart of this day was not the award winning image. It was the way Haven and Connor trusted the experience, followed the weather and the light, and allowed the day to become something deeply honest and beautiful.

We started the morning at Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon, where icebergs drifted quietly through the water as they held each other in the crisp morning air. Later, we made our way to a hidden waterfall, where they shared their vows surrounded by mossy rocks and the sound of rushing water. We ended the day at Stokksnes, walking barefoot across the black sand dunes beneath Vestrahorn as the sunset turned everything golden.

This Iceland elopement video was filmed and produced by ISKRA.

Locations In This Video: Vestrahorn, Stokksness, Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon, and Hotel Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon.

We still cannot get over how moody and cinematic this Madeira elopement inspiration shoot was! Katia & Vitaly were so stylish, passionate, and we felt so much energy between them and how intentional and loving they were.

From feeling like being in a fairytale in the laurel misty forest of Fanal to dancing barefoot at the sunset at Praia de Seixal: does a better way to elope even exist?

Some elopements don’t just look beautiful — they feel like a heartbeat.
That’s exactly how this day unfolded.

Wrapped in layers of fog and silence, we began the day deep in the mystical Fanal Forest, where ancient trees stood still like quiet witnesses. That morning, the air was literally filled with magic. Katia & Vitaly both looked fantastic: he wore a vintage coat and hat, she moved like poetry in a stunning silk gown by @mywony_atelier…Every touch between them was gentle, even poetic in a good way.

Later, being happy and pretty much soaked with the mist and rain, we moved down from the clouds to Praia da Seixal. The dramatic black sand stretched beneath their feet as the Atlantic breathed in and out brining cold waves which created incredible reflection on the sand. The beauty of Praia do Seixal beach was multiplied by the fantastic view of the waterfalls falling down from the mountain behind. All this covered with the clowds. And with this incredible setting K&V danced, ran, kissed, wrapped up in each other — completely lost in their own rhythm.

And this is the way to elope in Madeira.

P.S. If you’re dreaming to elope this way - we still have one spot for your dream elopement this October 2026. Feel free to DM or email us to know the details 🖤

This Dolomites elopement was one of those days that stays with you forever.

We started with a quiet morning hike to a hidden alpine lake, tucked deep in the Dolomites. Surrounded by South Tyrol’s jagged peaks and wildflowers in full bloom, the air was warm, calm, and glowing with summer light.

Later, we made our way to Passo Giau and everything shifted. The mountains slowly disappeared into the clouds, mist rolled through the peaks, and the world felt completely still. What followed was an intimate vow ceremony wrapped in fog and the kind of silence that makes every word land deeper.

There were much tears, laughter, bit of shaky voices, and so much love and Dolomites peaks surrounding us.

Where in the world will we be in 2026?

Next year is shaping up to be one of our most diverse travel seasons yet — a mix of epic landscapes, familiar places we love, and a few that were always on our bucket list 🔥

Here’s where you’ll find us in 2026:

April — Iceland & Azores (Portugal)
May — Iceland & Dolomites (Italy)
June — Iceland, Dolomites & Norway
July — Iceland, Lofoten (Norway) & Madeira
August — Iceland & Dolomites
September — Iceland, Dolomites & Madeira
October — Iceland, Dolomites & Madeira
November — Iceland, Canary Islands (Spain) & Madeira

We’re especially looking forward to another strong Iceland season, long alpine days in the Dolomites, and returning to Madeira’s cliffs and light later in the year. Lofoten in July is something we’re very excited about so much!

This year we’re doing things differently.

We’re limiting 2026 to only 20 elopements so we can stay fully present and creative for every couple we work with.

At this moment, only 5 spots remain.

If you’ve been thinking about eloping in any of these places — don’t wait too long to reach out. If we’re available, we’ll happily help you create, plan, film and capture something special.

We genuinely can’t wait to see what 2026 brings!

It’s not about money.
It’s about what you want to remember.

Eloping in Iceland isn’t about choosing less.
It’s about choosing yourselves, being present, and creating a core memory together.

Just the two of you — somewhere that makes everything else feel far away and not so important.

DM and explore how we can help you make it happen.
