Hi, We’re Christine + Scott—Midwest Transplants, Married Couple, and Mountain Enthusiasts
We live and work in the Alps, but our roots are firmly in the Midwest, which means we show up prepared, approachable, and genuinely invested in helping people feel comfortable in unfamiliar places.
The mountains may be our everyday, but we remember what it feels like to experience them for the first time.
This blog is where we share what we’ve learned from years of planning, hiking, scouting, and helping couples elope here.
Whether you’re deep in the planning process or just starting to explore the idea of an Alps elopement, you’ve officially arrived in the right place.
