In my opinion, Olympic National Park is one of the loveliest places to elope and offers a stunning variety of scenery. Whether you want to splash along the craggy coast with sea stacks as your witnesses or slip silently through old-growth forests or run wild in an alpine meadow, you can elope to your heart’s content in this northwestern gem.

For all of my wandering and life on the road, if I had to suddenly stop and stay in one place, I would choose the Olympic Peninsula in a heartbeat. Every time I see this place, it is with new eyes and new wonder.

Lacey and Jordan feel the same way. They currently live on Vancouver Island (another dreamy destination) where she’s a hair stylist and he’s an artist. With their healthy dose of creativity and wild and free spirits, they opted for an intimate elopement that reflected their bohemian vibe and allowed them to focus on the deep connection they share without all the frills of a traditional big wedding.

Lacey and Jordan got ready together in their studio apartment before we headed out into nature to explore and find the perfect spot for them to exchange vows.
