As I talk with folks about my ongoing time and travels through Alaska, I’ve found the idea of Alaska is shoe-horned into one of two buckets:
- Cruise-based travel
- Sweaty, people-powered exploration by hiking.
This is no different for eloping couples, too. If you don’t want to be tied to a cruise port, but, you don’t want to hike, then what is there for you?
So, if you’ve started to think about an elopement in Alaska, and then felt, “Ugh, that’s not for us as we don’t like to hike,” this article is for you.
In my Alaska elopements and explorations, I’ve personally searched out stunning glaciers, impossibly craggy mountains, incredible waterways, beautiful forests, and brain-altering vistas across multiple seasons alongside pilots, guides, and boat operators. And the best part? As you’ll see below, they are all there for you to explore and enjoy, without needing a single mile of hiked trail.
Let’s explore your non-hiking Alaska elopement options:

Can You Elope in Alaska Without Hiking?
Yes — and it’s not a “lesser” version. As one example, the helicopter that sets you down on a glacier isn’t a consolation prize to an intense, hiking elopement. It’s a chapter of a story hiking alone couldn’t give you: the terrain unfolding below you as you fly, the sense of scale you get as you rise up above the landscape, and as you land, the silence in a place you truly couldn’t get to any other way.
This type of “unique access vs hiking” experience is at the heart of Adventure Luxe, where the adventure in your elopement doesn’t demand intensity and endurance, and the experience is built around your interests, not stamina.
Hiking is never required because the way you travel into this corner of wild Alaska you’ve chosen IS the adventure.
The unique lodging you stay in as part of the experience isn’t just a trailside tent or logistical detail; it’s a foundation to the days of adventure, with thoughtful details and comfort that still allow you to be wrapped in the beauty of the place.
And because of this Adventure Luxe structure, this is also where your Alaska adventure elopement itself starts to look different. As National Geographic has documented in its coverage of experiential travel, the most memorable journeys are often not defined by just where you are, but by how you immerse once you get there.
This is why an adventure luxe elopement in Alaska is not a wedding afternoon or wedding day followed by a separate honeymoon, but a honeymoon with vows woven directly in.
What Is a Helicopter Elopement in Alaska?
A helicopter elopement means your ceremony happens somewhere a road or trail could never take you in Alaska — a glacier, an alpine ridge, or even a stretch of backcountry that would otherwise take days to reach on foot (if you could even get there at all!)
The way I encourage couples to think about a heli elopement is that the flight itself is not a transfer to the experience; it’s the start of it.
The moment you get in the heli, and the rotors start spinning and the machine begins to hover, you’ll understand 🙂
Seeing the terrain unfolding around you and the scale of the landscape changing as you climb is wildly cool. But, I’ve found that the amazement that settles in once you land somewhere that makes you feel impossibly tiny and the engines are turned off is unforgettable. THAT is the feeling you’ll talk about forever.
PRO TIP: If flying in a heli or a tiny plane isn’t for you, you’re not alone! I’ve found it’s much more common feeling than people expect, but, it doesn’t rule out option to explore Alaska’s wilds. Skip ahead to “non-flying & non-hiking options” below for everything Alaska offers without leaving solid ground.
What to Know When Planning a Helicopter Elopement in Alaska
*Experience Types:
There are two genuinely different helicopter-accessed elopement experiences to choose between in Alaska, and it’s important to look for that difference before you book.
- Flight-seeing is pure exploration from the air — you see the scale of the terrain, the glaciers, the mountain range, entirely from above, with no stops.
- Flight-seeing with landings blends that same flight-supported viewing, but with one or more stops on the ground.
- This means you get the wide view and the close, intimate one of the landscape as you can feel the ice underfoot, see the color and texture of the tundra lichens & grasses, and the sounds of wind, water, birds, etc that are unique in that particular place. Choosing a flight with landing(s) is most common for non-hiking elopements in Alaska
*Time:
Hiking elopements typically include more time by default, but my guidance is to give your heli elopement more time than you think you “need.”
Flights run anywhere from 1.5 hours with a single landing up to 5–8+ hours and 4+ landings for a fuller day. Having lived this experience with couples across different seasons, glaciers/locations, and “plans” for time on the ground, I will always encourage my couples and you to:
✨Book as much time as you can manage for your Alaska helicopter elopement, and if you can help it, don’t go shorter than three hours with three stops.
In my experience, anything less than 3 hours tends to feel rushed (even with no hiking once on the ground) — you’re either rushing the ceremony stop to fit the flight, or skipping the landscape experience to fit the ceremony, and neither is the point.
*Which Helicopter Company is the Best for Elopements
Which is the best helicopter company to fly you for your elopement day depends entirely on where you’re headed for your adventure’s homebase location, and what your plans are for the time.
- For example, if you’ll be in the Palmer/Wasilla corridor, north of Anchorage, you might find that one of my trusted partners, Outbound Heli, is the best option for the Knik Glacier. They are huge fans of elopements, and offer fun and unique on-glacier experiences like paddling an inflatable kayak in a summer blue pool, ice climbing, etc.
- If you are looking for dog sledding on snow in the summer, you’ll be looking for a heli company that takes you up to a glacier in the mountains to a dog sled training camp where the team lives and works for the summer.
- Seward Helicopter Tours, outside of Kenai Fjords National Park, is one of the few vendors that offers this unique experience along with other beautiful flight and landing experiences along the fjord-lined coast, mountains, and more.
- If you are headed more north for a heli elopement experience, the Matanuska Glacier is a less visited gem. Sheep Mountain Air knows the 26 miles of glacier and the surrounding mountains deeply, and can make your heli elopement amazing, with zero hiking required for wildly beautiful scenery.
- Pair that Matanuska heli glacier access with adventure luxe glamping at the glacier’s edge, and you get the 2-Day Matanuska Glacier Forest Glamping & Helicopter Elopement — elegant canvas tents, a cedar hot tub, and helicopter access to the ice itself, all in one stay.
- BUT… Did you know you can also homebase your elopement from adventure luxe glamping directly ON the Matanuska Glacier itself? With beautiful bell tents, real beds, and cozy touches, all accessed via heli, it’s all brought to life in this 2-Day Luxury Glacier Glamping and Heli Elopement.
- Or maybe you’re arrving to Juneau by sea?
- If so, the best heli company in Juneau for your no-hiking heli elopement will be based on factors set by your cruise details. With the strict timing for shoreday logistics, you’ll want to pick the vendor where you can ensure the excursion timing (both time of day, and excursion length), provided transport, and experience support (such as an available officiant, or perhaps included picnic or celebratory sip), all work well with the factors of your shore day travel.
All these factors can make it feel daunting to try figure out where do do your Alaska helicopter wedding and with what vendor on your own. This is why I have prioritized getting to know these teams, their offerings, and passions in my working relationships built across multiple seasons in the field, all over the state.
This means I can help you match to the right adventure location, and then, to the right heli partner for your target vibe/experiences, and, your adventure. You’re never left guessing and Googling, trying to decide from a generic list handed to every couple; my borne-from-adventure-insights become your guide.
*Who a Heli Elopement Fits Well
Ultimately, choosing the option of a helicopter elopement instead of a hiking elopement in Alaska, you’ll need a sense of adventure. It is a unique experience, and if you’ve never been in a helicopter before, that openness to a new method of travel is part of what makes this the right fit for some couples and not others.
The group size for heli elopement is naturally smaller, so often work best for true Just Us Two elopements, or ones with very few guests. If you’re exploring ideas for Alaska glacier weddings with guests, you can learn more about helicopter capacities and ways to involve guests in this detailed article on the best glaciers to elope on in Alaska.
Beyond that, a heli-elopement could be a good fit for you if you want the day to include a chance to see and feel tiny in a massive scale of a landscape, or if experiencing a wide variety of terrains in one adventure is important to you (eg: glacier ice, high alpine tundra/lakes, ridgelines/mountains, rocky glacier moraine, etc).
It’s not as strong a fit if you’re drawn to something slower, more “tucked-in” feeling perhaps with forest connections, and/or closer to the water; that’s where bushplane or floatplane access (scroll just below!), may feel more like you.
Floatplane Access for an Alaska Elopement
A floatplane elopement means landing on water instead of ice or ground — a private alpine lake, a quiet cove, a stretch of river with no dock and no one else around. Instead of wheels, the plane is equipped with pontoon “skis” on both sides of the base, that allow it to skim/float atop the water.
A floatplane flight tends to be a lower, slower flight than a helicopter, and the landing is part of the experience:
The plane skis, gently touching down on open water create a spray illuminated in the sun as you glide to a stop and ease your way to touching the shore.
It is a beautiful way to access into a place that could take days of hiking to get to, or often, has no other way in.
It’s a genuinely different relationship with the terrain than a helicopter landing — more intimate, closer to the surface, the kind of arrival that puts you in the landscape rather than above it.
If Knik Glacier is the classic scale-and-elevation choice, a floatplane to a private lake, a backcountry river, or island cove is the one to consider if what you’re actually after is a more easy going, immersed-in-the-vibes, single type of location sort of experience.
Bush Plane & Ski Plane Elopements: Reaching Alaska’s Most Remote Terrain
Like a float plane, a ski plane is a a small, more traditional looking plane (also called “fixed wing aircraft”). However, it has wheels that are used for ground landings, and skis that lower below the wheels for landing on snow.
A ski plane landing on Ruth Glacier is how Eric and Elisa started the first day of their adventure together in the Denali region — touching down on a snow-covered expanse in the Alaska Range. With our flight carefully timed to allow privacy between the arrival of other ski planes, it was them, the ceremonial officiant, the pilot and me in this massive snow-field glacier filled amphitheater.
This experience, the feel of the ski plan taking off and landing on the snow, and the scale of the mountains surrounding us set a beautiful reference point for a second day of helicopter access even deeper into the mountains outside the park boundary.
That itinerary is customized from the Denali Glacier Landing + Private Chef Elopement, and is one of the most adventurous — but luxe-leaning elopement packages — I offer in my Enchanted Canopy Collection of all-inclusive elopement experiences in Alaska. (And, yes, many of these other Collection elopement packages still don’t require hiking!)
A bush plane is much like a ski plane, but with no skis that lower. Instead, they have larger, fatter, more “donut”-like wheels. These oversized tires allow them to take your elopement in places with uneven or more rough terrain with dirt or sandy or grass runways vs the clean concrete we’re used to seeing at airports.
Taking a bush plane into places like Gates of the Arctic or Wrangell-St. Elias works differently than the routes above.
Who you end up flying with as a vendor (and the right route to travel) is entirely dependent on where you’re drawn to and what you want the adventure to hold. With limited buildings and infrastructure development, and their massive land size, what it could be like to elope in these Alaska National Parks without hiking is limited only by your imagination! So, figuring that out, matching the terrain to the couple, and then the skilled pilot to get you to your dream spot is genuinely part of what I do in my elopement design and concierge work.
You bring the scale of what you’re imagining. I find the way in.
And, regardless of which of the air access options above that you choose for no-hiking needed Alaska elopement, you’ll find that these flights aren’t just scenic routes.
They’re entrances into places that launch your experience, and blow your mind with a brand new perspective before you’ve even touched down.
Can You Elope in Alaska Without Hiking or Flying?
Not every couple wants to fly, and I’ve found it’s a more common preference than people expect it might be.
I’ve seen in my adventures that some of the most vivid elopement experiences happen close to the ground, moving through the terrain instead of hovering over it. So, I’ve designed full elopement experience allowing for ground access alone with no aircraft involved for couples who wanted the wild without hiking, but, also, without ever leaving solid ground.
Below are a few ideas to get your imagination going for what’s possible for elopements in Alaska without flying or hiking:
UTV & Snowmobile Access
A UTV (also called a “side-by-side” because of it’s seating arrangement) is an off-road vehicle that is built for comfort and adventure. This mode of backcountry travel offers “car-like” steering and gas/brake set-up, but, takes you into terrain cars can’t typically explore. They also give access to where a trail hike would take much more time and energy to reach.
With views and stops at places like creek crossings, high alpine lakes, and mountain meadows tucked away from most visitors, a UTV is the mode to choose if you want your elopement to feel like a hand-on exploration with several stops and a flow of experiences instead of one single destination.
This was Kristin and Oliver’s first day of adventure in Alaska. Their UTV experience featured creekside splashing that turned into an impromptu stop to watch kayakers paddle by… Celebratory treats overlooking a high alpine lake… And, a wild blueberry feast in a mountain meadow, all without having to hike to access it.
Their second day then took them into the air to explore the Knik Glacier by helicopter. Proof that ground and air adventure options aren’t either/or limits in your Adventure Luxe Alaska elopement. Instead, you can do both as you’d like, on different days of the same trip.
UTV access runs most reliably June through September, though Mother Nature has her own say in the exact window every year.
In winter, the same Hatcher Pass, Matanuska Glacier, and Fairbanks-area terrain opens up by snowmachine (aka “snowmobile”) instead. A motorized “sled” with skis on the base to steer it, and a track at the rear that pushes it forward, a snowmachine gives you access to terrain and features that are often not feasible (or advisable!) to travel to by foot in the winter.
The same opportunity for an elopement in Alaska without having to hike holds true with snowmachine tour. This mode of travel for your elopement experience is a perfect option if you’re looking for a more hands-on adventure, and are ready to welcome Alaska’s winter elements in an excursion where the journey is a big part of the destination.
Of Note: If you crave deep silence for your Alaska non-hiking elopement, snowmachines may not be the option for you…
…If you’ve never done a snowmachining tour, the engines and motors aren’t quiet in their operation. This means the travel to your stops and across your experiences carries the sound of the machines traveling in your group.
Once you are stopped and engines are shut off, the heavy quiet of winter can find you again. But, couples seeking slower, quieter flow, take note. (Keep reading below for more on winter-specific elopement flows and ideas.)
Dogsledding Elopements in Alaska
Yes — you can have a summer dogsled experience in Alaska without snow! Wheeled dog carting runs the same dog teams, the same handlers, but instead, they are pulling a cart on wheels over a dirt forest path instead of a sled on runners over snow.
With dogcarting elopement experience, you’ll still get to meet the dog teams (and perhaps snuggle some puppies!), but the way you experience the feeling of running with the dogs is different.
It’s how Eric and Elisa spent their third day in the Denali region. Real Iditarod race team dogs pulling them through the forest, the handler calling out commands, the whole team working in that beautiful, bark-filled energy that working sled dogs have.
Dogcarting for your non-hiking Alaska elopement is available through the warmer months, when dogsledding on snow isn’t at lower elevations. And, with availability at various locations across the state, this can be a beautiful option for an elopement ceremony, or, an additional adventure experience to add depth to your days.
On-snow dogsledding, however, is what I’ve found that many couples have in mind as they think about a dogsledding elopement.
There are two options if being pulled behind a dog team on snow is your vision:
- ONE – In the winter, and perhaps into early spring, some working dog teams will provide sledding experiences for guests. No air access is needed, as snow is present in the valleys and lower elevations.
- TWO – In Alaskan summer, the only way to do a dogsledding elopement in the snow is on a high alpine glacier, accessed by helicopter flight.
- This 2-Day Bear Lake Glamping and Glacier Dog Sledding Elopement travels by a dogsled across a snow-field glacier —tucked in the mountains at high elevation—for an elopement experience that a hiking trail just can’t replicate.
Whether the vows moment is earlier in your adventure like Eric & Elisa, or, like Ronnie & Anthony picking their vow spot mid-dogsled ride on the glacier with the dogs as their ceremony attendants, dogsledding in Alaska is an unexpected and amazing option for an elopement with no hiking.
The beauty in these adventures is in access through experience design, not endurance.
Horseback Riding Elopements in Alaska
Horseback as an option for a non-hiking elopement in Alaska moves at the one pace nothing else on this list does — slow enough that the landscape opens up gradually instead of grand, sweeping reveals.
And, with the connection to the horses and the time moving through forests and along water elements, a horseback elopement creates an experience that wraps you in nature for a unique feeling of “grounding” in the experience.
One of the most common regions for where to have an engagement or elopement by horseback in Alaska traces the Knik River and the historical path of the glacier itself. Here, forest, riverbank, and sweeping mountain views that arrive the way they would on foot by hiking, just minus the effort.
And best of all, these fully guided trail ride experiences for an elopement are available to all riders, experience is not required.
So, whether you are an experienced equestrian, or, a first-time or rider with “just a little experience”, there’s an adventure available to you.
Alaska Horse Adventures is a good starting reference for what’s possible in this vein, though often I’m sourcing a bespoke outfitter allowing true flexibility to build the experience a couple wants.
Is a horseback elopement in Alaska a good fit for you?
I’d suggest exploring a horseback trail ride for your elopement in Alaska if calm and pace matter more to you than covering ground quickly. It is a beautiful option if you want the experience itself, not just the destination, to feel unhurried.
Eloping by horseback can also be a good fit where deeper immersion into one experience and one main type of environment feels right to you vs multiple very different environs (eg, like in a heli tour)
Train & Automobile Options for a Non-Hiking Alaska Elopement
Alaska’s passenger rail lines often move through terrain a road can’t touch, and choosing from any of the routes, such as the whistle-stop route out of Talkeetna or the Spencer whistle-stop line, makes for a genuinely different kind of immersive elopement adventure.
How? On their own, both are scenic. But, when paired with a second adventure at the destination, such as guided kayaking among icebergs, a river rafting run, or even a stop to a hidden beautiful spot along the route— the train is the way in, and the experiences that follow become where your vows happen.
A 4×4 vehicle opens up a different kind of ground access than UTV touring — instead of a single guided day through one region, it puts you behind the wheel of your own route to hidden-gem spots tucked along rivers, lakes, and wild lands most visitors never find.
This road-trip elopement experience is self-directed rather than guided, so it is a totally different experience than the UTV elopement experience above, not just a variation on it.
Alaska is also genuinely built for RV and overlanding travel with an adventure powered by a rental camping-ready jeep, truck, or vanlife-style van that functions as a home on wheels.
You are free to chase the light, weather, and the landscape you’re drawn to across your days, as your vehicle itself becomes the homebase instead of a locked-in spot you return to each night. And with the journey as the destination, you can wake up, already there and ready to adventure in the places you’ve been dreaming of.
But even with the vehicle-based options, you don’t have to go it alone or “rough it.”
Working with the right elopement designer allows you to build an Adventure Luxe-style elopement where you can still pair bucketlist experiences, guided adventures, and thoughtful details and comforts nested into your experience during this type of travel.
Picking train access for your no-hiking elopement in Alaska fits well if you want the journey itself to feel like part of the ceremony, not just the way you got there. If combining different landscapes in one day appeals to you more than choosing just one, train access could be a good fit for you.
Choosing 4×4 or overlanding/RV access is a great fit if big variety of destinations and independence to fully explore matters to you. Setting your own pace and your own route for this option for no-hiking required vows creates space and flexibility for elopement vows, wrapped into immersive, honeymoon-like experiences.
Can You Elope on the Water in Alaska? (Floatplane, Boat & More)
Yes — and water access opens up some of the most private, immersive terrain in Alaska for an elopement without hiking: lakes, fjords, glacial rivers, and iceberg lagoons that no road or trail can reach. I love finding ways to make water part of the story itself, not just the backdrop to it.
River Rafting, Packraft & Kayak Access
Sometimes this means a quiet paddle across a misty lake at sunrise, just the two of you and the sound of the morning. Other times it’s a kayak through an iceberg-dotted lagoon, or an adventure-day whitewater run down a river racing off the foot of a glacier — a once-in-a-lifetime thrill in a genuinely unique place.
Or, like Laci and Gabe, it can move at a completely different pace: they explored the heart of Alaska by raft, fly fishing as the current carried them through miles of wild backcountry forest.
Choose rafting, packraft, or kayak access if you want the water itself to set the pace of your day — whether that’s Laci and Gabe’s unhurried drift or a full adrenaline run.
Floatplane Travel into Remote Elopements
A floatplane doesn’t just get you somewhere water can’t — it gets you somewhere nothing else can. Remote high alpine lakes with no trail, no dock, and no other way in become reachable in a single flight.
The same access can deliver you to a bespoke wilderness lodge like Tordrillo Mountain Lodge, deep in the Alaska Range. This destination becomes your home base for the days ahead, with comfort and thoughtful detail, dropped into total remoteness.
Sailboat, Yacht & Water Taxi: Fjords, Lagoons, and Private Coves
For couples drawn to something more distinctive for their unique non-hiking Alaska elopement, a private sailboat charter near Kenai Fjords National Park glides past tidewater glaciers and sea stacks on a small expedition that feels like your own world.
Or a private boat becomes an intimate dinner cruise in Resurrection Bay, with locally sourced food prepped by a private chef. The sounds of the birds and water, with sweeping views of lush mountains round out the scene of your elopement celebration on the water.
For couples who want to fully immerse in the natural energies of water, Shearwater Cove is a true Adventure Luxe lodging gem near Seward that’s only accessible by thier private water taxi.
With a handful of luxury glamping yurts on a private cove, you’ll find peace and beauty nestled into the mountains at the water’s edge. Adventure mixes with comfort, too, with sea otters peeking at you as you kayak in the bay, and custom helicopter excursions departing from an island near the camp.
For a fully designed itinerary in this same coastal terrain, the 2-Day Kenai Fjords + Glacier Dogsled Alaska Elopement wraps water access, heli travel, glacier dogsledding, and backcountry yurt glamping into one two-day adventure elopement experience in Alaska. All with zero hiking required.
Water invites presence into an elopement. It slows you down and creates a physical connection to the place in a way that’s difficult to explain and nearly impossible to replicate.
Is an Alaska Elopement Accessible for Limited Mobility, Sensory, and Neurodivergent Needs?
Elopements in Alaska have the option to be far more accessible for different mobility needs than most couples realize — vehicle-based, boat-based, and aviation-based access already remove most of the physical demand people assume an Alaska elopement requires. If you’ve quietly wondered whether what you and your partner want is even possible — given a mobility device, a chronic condition, a sensory need, or anything else that shapes how you or the people you love move through the world — I want you to know it’s not just possible. It’s something I plan for from the very beginning, not as an add-on.
Standing on a glacier, watching light move across a coastal fjord from a cabin, seeing the Aurora from a glass-walled dome… All of it is reachable across a wide range of physical ability levels, because the way in was never hiking to begin with.
Accessible design goes well beyond how you get there, though. Mobility assistive devices, blind or low vision, Deaf or hard of hearing, sensory sensitivities, neurodivergent-supportive pacing can all be thoughtfully built into how your day flows, not bolted on after the fact.
And this isn’t only about the two of you. When people you love are joining you, their needs matter just as much in how the experiences are shaped.
Sometimes that looks like coordinating a boat with ramped access to a wheelchair-accessible ceremony site. Sometimes it’s building the day’s timeline around a known concern — planning meal and snack timing for someone managing diabetes, or around food sensitivities and allergies.
And sometimes it’s something as small as making sure there are extra warm socks, gloves, and handwarmers on hand for a guest with Raynaud’s. None of it is an afterthought. All of it is part of the design.
In my experience, a consideration like this can flex how we approach building to achieve your vision, but, it never needs to change your ambition.
Can You Have a Winter Elopement in Alaska Without Hiking?
Yes, winter elopements in Alaska are incredible — and every non-hiking access mode covered above still works in winter, just transformed by the season. Dogsledding moves from summer forest paths to open snow. Snowmachine touring replaces UTV access across the same Hatcher Pass, Matanuska, and Fairbanks-area terrain. Helicopter access reaches a ridge of unbroken snow or an ice cave hidden inside a glacier. Ski plane access lands you on a frozen lake with unbeatable views of Denali and its surrounding mountain layers, stacked in every direction.
In winter, glass-walled dome built for Northern Lights viewing, a cabin reached only by snowmachine, a backcountry lodge accessible only by air aren’t just elopement lodging options. They’re the elopement itself.
Winter in Alaska is something specific. Yes, it’s cold — but that cold brings its own heightened, crystal-clear quality. You haven’t seen stars until you’ve seen them under clear Alaskan winter skies, and the sparkle of snow on a sunny winter day is something you’ll never forget.
Some may argue when talking about when to elope in Alaska that the snow cover simplifies the landscape — burying the detail of forests, valleys, and ridge lines you’d see in summer. But, I’ve found it’s less a loss of complexity and more a different type of complexity. Landscapes are amplified with whites and incredible blue tones, and textures of shadows and light on the snow covered, frozen terrain. I believe it is just as beautiful, just different.
Based on my experience in Alaska across multiple seasons, I’d argue that wintertime might actually be one of the most incredible—and unexpected—times to have your non-hiking elopement here.
At the end of all this, I want you to know:
Your vision for a non-hiking elopement in Alaska isn’t just possible. It might be even better than you’ve let yourself imagine so far.
So explore it. Dream a little bigger than feels safe. Then let’s start planning — because your vision can be real, and Adventure Luxe is where it comes to life, smoothly, beautifully, and with intention.
Explore what Adventure Luxe can bring to your Alaska elopement.
Adventure, always
