Boldly Romantic Icelandic Elopement in the Fjaðrárgljúfur Canyon

January 5, 2016 | Junebug Weddings

Boldly-Romantic-Icelandic-Elopement-in-the-Fjaorargljufur-Canyon-Nicole-Ashley-Photography-8

In a boldly romantic move, Schimine and Stephen decided to ditch their traditional wedding in lieu of an adventurous Icelandic elopement. Joined by Nicole Ashley Photography and the makeup team of Behind the Blush, Schimine and Stephen said “I do” on a cliff in the Fjaðrárgljúfur Canyon. Schimine looked positively stunning in her Pronovias gown, especially as the sun set vibrantly over the other-worldly landscape.

The Couple:

Schimine and Stephen

The Wedding:

Fjaðrárgljúfur Canyon, Iceland

We wanted our wedding style to be boldly romantic and magical. We added in small details that reflect our adornment for the outdoors, but ultimately when you go to Iceland, the other-worldliness outshines any theme and rightfully so; it is a majestic place that needs no tulle or pearls.

Our photographer, and hair/makeup team were phenomenal. We were lucky to have met up a few times before the trip and all became fast friends. They are masters of their crafts, and delivered exceptional service to us that surpassed our expectations. It felt like we were with family which was important as our elopement was intimate and quite private. Nicole Ashley Photography & Behind the Blush know how to put you at ease and you will be laughing the entire time if you have the chance to work with these incredible artists. We didn’t have to worry about anything, their skills and creativity allowed us to have an unforgettable experience. We are beyond impressed by the quality of their work!

There is so much I could say to newly engaged couples; we had quite the rollercoaster, having cancelled our traditional wedding in favour of eloping on an adventure. I’ll sum it down to 3 things that we agreed are most important. First, enjoy each other through this process. Being engaged is a special time in your life. Celebrate often and remember that this is about you as a couple. Secondly, do what is right for you. If that means having a big ball-dance or eloping in an officiant’s backyard then so be it! Weddings are expensive and stressful, don’t lose yourselves to a money pit or pressure to have the perfect day. Laugh and let it go. Lastly, your photographer is everything. Budget for one that you want. The photos are the only thing from your wedding day that will surpass your lifetime. Choose wisely!

Since we eloped, there was such a focus on all the moments of the day which makes it hard to choose. Looking back, I think it may be our first look while walking through Reykjavik to meet my groom for our first look. It was strangely quiet and I could hear my heart beating. Seeing Stephen standing there waiting filled me with love and joy like I’ve never felt. Later, our ceremony took place on a cliff – in a canyon! Moments after we shared vows the most magnificent colours sprawled across the sky. We walked back to the edge of the cliff to take in the sunset, because it truly was surreal and lasted only moments before dissipating back into grey. That is a moment we will never forget.

Inspired by springtime in Michigan and the timelessness of their family’s wedding before theirs, Molly and Drew’s Grosse Pointe War Memorial was sophisticated as could be and everything they imagined. To ensure that every moment and detail was documented with care, the couple enlisted Julie Pepin Photography to capture their day. The resulting images are artistic, romantic, and filled to the brim with joy!

The Couple:

Molly and Drew

The Wedding:

Grosse Pointe War Memorial, Grosse Pointe Farms, Michigan

We listened to the stories from grandparents’ and parents’ weddings, and were inspired by how uncomplicated they seemed. So we wanted the day and the wedding fashion to stay simple, easy with a touch of classic sophistication. With the decor, we wanted to evoke the sense of joy and hopefulness that comes with a Michigan spring.

Listen to your heart when it comes to everything – from the dress, to the venue, to the guest list. Don’t get caught up in all of the hype. Splurge on a great photographer. Julie Pepin was an absolute dream. I followed her work before and after the wedding. She was professional, calm, organized, and beyond talented. I couldn’t have been happier!
