If you want to have a wedding experience that is truly different, then an adventure elopement in South Africa is certainly something you should consider. Where nature is wild, the landscapes breathtaking and the possibilities endless. Moira and Constant, understood the assignment. The mountains were calling, and so we headed out to answer.

Now, this adventure happened a while back. However, while looking at the images, I can still remember everything vividly.
I remember how the wind blew so fiercely on our way up. How we had our dinner from a can, somewhere mid-trail, sitting on a rock. I remember filling up our bottles with water from a cold, clean mountain-stream and how we pitched our tents in the dark.
I remember rolling through my tent in my sleeping bag, because there wasn’t really a flat surface for our tents to stand on. But, I also remember that it didn’t really matter. Because the light we were gifted on this wind-still morning, surrounded by these mountains, and the love between these two amazing people, is something that I will never, ever forget. This is what an adventure elopement should feel like.

Moira and Constant we not afraid to follow their hearts, to chose an experience that was truly about them, for them. I hope they’ll be an inspiration to whoever reads this. Do what matters to you, in a place that suits you. With words, that are important to you, for you. I trust, that by looking at these images you feel more confident in choosing your special day, for you.

A wedding doesn’t have to be traditional if you don’t want it to be. If the thought of a big wedding with six bridesmaids and a seven-course menu frightens you but a two-day hiking adventure with dinner from a can makes your heart skip a beat, then please. Please, for the love of all things;

PUT YOUR HIKING BOOTS ON AND LET’S GO!
