Sedona Elopement Photographer + Videographer

Serving Arizona & Beyond

You are adventurers, explorers, and dreamers

You’re not looking for the usual wedding experience

You’re here because a traditional wedding doesn’t feel like you. You want a wedding day that’s about the experienceβ€”not the expectations.

A day where you’re free to be fully present, soaking in every moment together. Where the focus isn’t on a big production, but on the quiet, breathtaking, once-in-a-lifetime feeling of saying I do in a place that speaks to your heart.

You want a day that resembles your love story and adventurous wedding vision. A day you can look back on and say, β€œI can’t believe we did that”.

Imagine Your Perfect Day

  • Waking up before the sun, hiking up a mountainside to view the edge of the world.
  • Off-roading to a private destination for epic portraits as the sun sets.
  • Having a picnic in the forest next to the Oak Creek.
  • Flying over the red mountains in a helicopter and exchanging vows on the side of a mountain.

Your wedding is the day you say I do to marrying your best friend, however you want. This is the start of your greatest adventure yet.

The heart of your

Sedona elopement

Your wedding is one of the most important moments of your life. It’s about celebrating your love without pressure, expectations, or a checklistβ€”just the two of you, fully present in the moment.

Imagine standing hand in hand, surrounded by towering red rocks, with nothing but the sound of the wind and your heartbeat. No stress, no obligationsβ€”just an experience that feels wild, freeing, and so perfectly you.

Your love story is one of a kind. Your wedding day should be too.

How to choose where to elope in Sedona

Pick a location together

Choose a location that both you and your partner love.

Start with places that excite you, whether it’s a forest, mountains, or near Oak Creek. Imagine exchanging vows in that settingβ€”consider how it looks, feels, and smells. Exploring what your heart desires will help you find the perfect spot for your Sedona elopement or wedding.

Envision your day

Having scenery in mind, even if you don’t have an exact location picked out yet, can help with choosing the best place to get married in Sedona. Consider what activities you’d like to do to celebrate. Imagine your day looking like:

– Off-roading to a private location

– Rock climbing as the sun sets

– Having a picnic on top of a mountain

Have an open mind

Choosing a Sedona elopement location can be overwhelming, with endless options to choose from. If you’re unsure of what you want, remember that what matters most is your marriage. Focus on creating a day that day is centered around your love and the start of your adventure together, showcasing your unique connection as a couple.

The best places to Elope in Sedona

If you’re wanting to go on a challenging hike and watch the sun set at one of Sedona’s most popular hikes, this spot would be perfect for your wedding portraits.

Merry Go Round Rock

This once secretive location is one of my personal favorite places to get married in Sedona. It has one of the most beautiful views of the Sedona scenery and an epic 1 hour off-roading adventure along the way.

Private Sedona Local Locations

If you’re wanting a more private location away from tourists, as a Sedona expert I can recommend some ‘off the beaten path’ locations no one else knows about.

An Intimate airbnb

If you’d prefer a smaller wedding celebration with your close friends and family, consider booking an AirBnB that allows large groups. There are many private homes that offer the option to host your wedding or reception on their property.

One of Sedona’s beautiful Venues

From a small venue for less than 50 guests to a venue sitting on top of a mountain, each wedding venue in Sedona offers a unique view of the red rocks.

frequently asked questions about eloping in Sedona

I book elopements up to 16 months in advance. It is always best to book your Sedona elopement photographer, videographer, and other vendors as soon as possible! Contact me here to save your date on my calendar.

Eloping in Sedona can cost as low as $83 for just a marriage license or up to $10,000 if you’re wanting a bigger / traditional wedding experience. Here’s a blog with an elopement calculator to see how much your dream wedding will cost.

That depends on a few factors; what you want to do and during your elopement, how many guests you want to invite, and where you want to get married.

During our consult call we’ll go over your elopement vision and help decide how much coverage your day will need.

Here’s a link to my elopement packages and pricing to learn more.

The best time to elope in Sedona is typically January – March or October – November. You can get married at any time of the year in Sedona but weather can be unpredictable depending on the season.

Here’s a link to my Sedona Elopement Planning Guide with all the tips on how to get married in Sedona.

Weeks leading up to your wedding date I will be keeping an eye on the weather and road conditions and keep you updated on any changes that may affect your wedding plans.

Unless there is a major weather condition, road closures, or event that would make it unsafe to get married then we would continue with your wedding / elopement pre-planned backup location.

We will change your elopement date or location if the unsafe conditions continue.

If you’re wanting to elope in Sedona I recommend no more than 20 guests. Any more than 20, a private venue or Airbnb is recommended.

Here’s some ideas on how to include your guests in your elopement.

While Sedona is home, I travel far and wide to document love stories in epic places. Here are some of my favoriteS:

Arizona | Utah | Oregon | California | Alaska | Iceland

Phoenix | Page | Grand Canyon | Moab | Salt Lake City | Zion | Big Sur | Yosemite | Redwood National Park
