We have  a wide variety of pre-designed elopement packages and adventure experiences for you to offer, all made by local businesses, in accordance with our sustainability policy.

There is always a base-package and you can customize it with pre-designed add-ons.

You can filter the experiences by many categories and you can have a complete overview of the costs and all the details.

All our vendors and experiences are trusted, handpicked locals by Adventure Wedding Platform.

Yes, we are really serious about this. First of all, we care for our Planet and sustainability and would not like to encourage  photographers travel further than 300 kms just for a photo session. 

Second, we really believe there is a good photographer at every corner of the world and we would like to foment these local markets instead of a few succesfull photographers travelling all around the world.

Third, we really think that you, as a client will benefit more if a local person will plan your elopement. Local meaning a person who lives in that area, knows its ins and outs and can truly share his/her passion about the place.

A vow renewal is a celebratory ceremony for a married couple to reaffirm their commitment to each other. They are especially popular on milestone anniversaries (10, 25, or 50 years), however, there is no rule as to when to have one. It is a way to commemorate the mature and deep love between two people and to celebrate the long journey they have been on

We know that planning a wedding abroad in these times can be a challenge. When you find an experience you like, you can contact the photographer personally through our website before booking and inquire further details about his/her availability and flexibility. Once you settle on a date, you book it by putting down a deposit.

In most cases, the ceremonies are just symbolic and not legally binding, alas there is also no need for a witness. On a lot  of elopements, the couples even prefer to write and say their vows even without a celebrant. A celebrant can be included on most experiences if you wish so.

Please note that getting married legally in a foreign country is in most cases very complicated, if not impossible. We recommend making the legal ceremony in your homecountry before or after the adventure wedding.

 You need to buy the tickets for yourself and handle what you need for the travel itself. Some experiences do have an airport pick up included as an additional option and your photographer or planner can help you with that.

As for accommodation, every adventure wedding experience includes the accommodation for the nights of the program’s length. If you stay in the country longer, you need to handle your own accommodation. Ask your photographer for help and tips.

Meals are included in some experiences and in others not, it is specified every time.

Every experience states in their description the amount of guests who can come along with the couple. Usually it is max 10-15 people, to keep the experience intimate.

Every experience is organised by a local vendor and they know the best how to handle the experience according to weather conditions.

Each experience states what the policy regarding unfavourable weather conditions is and what rainy day policy they have.

After agreeing with your expert, you can book your experience by paying a 15% deposit. The remaining amount has to be paid to the vendor directly as to their requirements.

According to our cancellation policy, all payments are non-refundable once the due date of an instalment passes and the transaction has been made.

Force majeur situations (including covid) do make an exception from these. In this case, every vendor has their own policy, please inquire to them about this. Every experience is different and vendors might have different costs to reserve certain things for your elopement (for example an accommodation), so we encourage a mutual  flexible and understanding attitude with clear communication in these uncertain times.

If you do not find the perfect experience you desire, contact us and we try to find a solution. The same goes for adventurous honeymoons.

We are planning on extending our experiences to offer honeymoons as well, check in to our website later.

Usually every vendor offers several experiences in the same country, with some variations on what is included and how long one elopement is. You have also at every experience some additional services (airport pick up, flower bouquet etc.) you can select.

At the moment you do not have the option to customize beyond the extra additional services.
