Just over a year ago today, Anna & Kamil eloped in Acadia National Park with their parents

At sunrise, Ryan and I acted as your guides and took them to our favorite views in the park. They started with a sunrise hike and then we showed them around the cliffs. They had a relaxing morning together before getting ready for their ceremony in the afternoon.

Anna got ready with their moms while Kamil got ready with their fathers. They wanted to keep the first look for the ceremony, so we found a ceremony site with the perfect natural asile. They had an intimate ceremony at Otter Point and took some time just celebrating with their parents after.

Next they took a charter with Acadia Charter Company | Blue Water Club to Islesford Dock Restaurant for a dinner reception!

“What if we’re awkward in front of the camera?”

I hear a version of this on almost every single call I have with couples, and I totally get it! Being in front of the camera feels ~*weird*~. Ryan and I will be the first to admit that when a camera gets turned towards us we forget everything that we know and awkwardly stand there smiling not knowing what to do with our arms lol

If you’re choosing to elope, you likely don’t love being the center of attention, so we completely understand how imagining a day where cameras are photographing you for hours feels very intimidating. We’re the same way!

Our entire approach to weddings is focused on the experience and making you feel comfortable so you can eventually forget the cameras are even there.

So if you’re camera shy don’t let that intimidate you while elopement planning. It’s one of the most common fears we hear and it’s also one of the easiest to put to rest once your day actually starts!

Aislinn and Steve’s day is a perfect example of what a relaxed, all day intimate wedding can look like!

When they started planning, they learned it was really important to share their wedding experience with their families and they wanted to have intentional time alone together. So they designed a day around both!

Their wedding day in the dark by getting ready separately at different Airbnbs. Just before sunrise, they met out on the cliffs for a first look and time together before the day really started.

They met their guests right at sunrise for their ceremony. The sun rose right over the water behind them and they had the cliffs to themselves. After, they shared a small celebration in the parking lot with their guests with local pastries and coffee.

Next, they took their friends on a hike to show them more of the park before heading to Sweet Pea's Cafe for a brunch reception.

They took a break for midday and we met back up with them a few hours before sunset. Rock climbing has been a staple of their relationship for years, so they wanted to include time to do that on their wedding day! And after, we brought them to one of our favorite locations in the park to watch the sunset.

These two truly had an all day experience, but at no point did it feel overwhelming or rushed. They were very intentional about each piece and made sure to leave room to relax throughout the day!
