Planning a Wedding Abroad Sounds Incredible … Until It Starts To Feel Overwhelming
You love the idea of saying ‘I do’ surrounded by scenery you’ve only seen in the movies. But once you start thinking about the logistics … well, that’s another story.
After all, you’re balancing full-time jobs, real life, and a thousand tiny decisions. And planning a wedding abroad brings questions you’ve never had to answer before: where to go, when to go, who to invite, how the weather plays into it all, and how to choose the right people to guide you through the whole thing.
And on top of that? You’re probably not dying to be the center of attention on your most intimate day, either.
You want this day to feel like you.
You just don’t want it to feel complicated.
“Planning an elopement on a short time frame on another continent can certainly feel stressful,
but Christine was so so helpful in curating our day to exactly what we were looking for on our elopement day. From the first video chat to helping select options for locations and hikes to timeline arrangements, Christine has all her bases covered to help you through the planning process and to make your day the best for what you're imagining.”

We’re Christine & Scott
ELOPEMENT PHOTOGRAPHER AND VIDEOGRAPHER IN THE ITALIAN DOLOMITES, AND ACROSS THE SWISS, GERMAN, AND AUSTRIAN ALPS
And we’re fully committed to walking the walk (literally)
Because out here, good ideas only get you so far. As an Alps elopement photographer and videographer, we’ve learned these places by being in them: putting in the (actual) miles, stalking the weather, and understanding what works in real life.
For you? That means fewer surprises, better decisions, and a wedding day that unfolds smoothly (without you having to manage the details as you go!).
Between the two of us, we’ve spent years working in tourism, travel, and outdoor spaces. Which means that planning, logistics, and thinking a few steps ahead are second nature.
And when you’re planning a wedding abroad—and out in the mountains—those things matter. A lot.
ALPS AND DOLOMITES ELOPEMENTS?
They’re So Much More Than Just Pretty Places
That belief shapes everything we do here. From how we help you plan, to how we guide you through the day, to how your love is captured—our work is designed around the big picture, not just how it looks in photos.
And space to actually be there.
Space to slow down.
Space to breathe deeper.
Getting married in the mountains isn’t about chasing the perfect backdrop for the ‘gram or recreating a popular trend. It’s about choosing an experience that gives you space.
“I knew from the first second of our meeting that Christine and Scott were the ones for us. They were so flexible, generous, and excited throughout our entire experience, and treated every aspect of the day like it was their own. Our elopement was the adventure of a lifetime and it couldn’t have happened without them.”

FREE GUIDE
Planning a symbolic ceremony in the Alps comes with plenty of questions, yet most of the resources out there focus on the logistics of the elopement day rather than the ceremony itself. This guide is dedicated entirely to the ceremony: what it is, how it works, what it includes, and how to make it personal. […]
If you’re thinking about eloping in the Alps, you may be wondering, ‘’when is the best time to elope in the Alps?’’. The Alps aren’t a single destination though, with four neat seasons. In reality, it’s a range of mountains that spans across eight countries, with dozens of different climates. In some regions, winter can […]
“If we could give them 10 stars, we would!”
Beyond their quality of work and depth of knowledge about the region, Christine and Scott are such genuine and fun people—spending our two-day elopement with them felt like hanging out with good friends. We’re so happy that we found them, and we’ll cherish our memories (and incredible photos) forever.”
