The Wild & Free Ceremony
An unconventional twist on elopement ceremonies
What is a Wild & Free Ceremony?
A Wild & Free Ceremony is one where you have the freedom to design and lead your own ceremony so you can be fully present, deeply connected, and free from outside pressure. As your dual photographer and low-key officiant, I will make everything official!
Here’s what that looks like on your elopement day:


✦ Get Grounded
I will begin with a short grounding exercise to help you slow down, settle in, and become fully present together.
✦ You Self Unite & Feel All the Feels
From there, I will step back into photographer mode and give you complete privacy to carry out the ceremony you’ve designed. This is your time to read vows, exchange rings, laugh, cry, and share your first kiss— while I document every moment.
✦ I’ll, Lowkey, Make it Legal
Once your private ceremony concludes, I’ll step back in as your lowkey officiant to confirm your “I Do’s,” pronounce you married, and sign your marriage license. Legal, yet simple and unobtrusive!
"Before our private vows, she led us through a grounding exercise and honestly,
it changed the entire feeling around the experience."
-Brianna
With a Wild & Free Ceremony, you’ll…
"Saying our vows in as intimate of an environment as nature can provide
was the best day of our life"
