What is an elopement, anyway?

It’s a chance to give yourselves a wedding experience that feels true to who you are and what matters most to you — not to Pinterest.

Think of this less like a “wedding” and more like a call to adventure: gearing up, exploring a new place, experiencing something new to start this new chapter together.

Whatever you want that to look like —
a slow day of exploring
a barefoot ceremony on the beach
a seaplane flight to somewhere new + wild
a cozy weekend away with your favorite people
a day filled to the brim with new adventures
or a quiet, intimate day somewhere serene
we’re here to help you make it happen.

What We Do

Think of us as your wilderness guides for eloping in the great outdoors. Part photographer, planner, officiant, guide — we help you navigate everything from permits and trail access to weather windows and backup plans.

We’ve helped plan hundreds of elopements across Washington, but no two are ever the same — each experience is entirely tailored around your preferences, abilities, and wishes.

Meet the team

Wilderpines is a small Seattle-based team helping couples escape the wedding world and elope in the wild landscapes of Washington — from Mount Rainier and the North Cascades to Olympic National Park and beyond.

Together, we’ve photographed 180+ adventures, officiated 80+ ceremonies, and helped couples plan everything from sunrise solo hikes to multi-day mountaintop adventures.

We bring our local expertise and leave-no-trace awareness to help plan your day, handle the logistics, and document your experience so you can stay present for what matters most: getting married somewhere beautiful.

“Ashton went above and beyond. Not only did he capture every special moment, but he also provided much-needed hot coffee at 6 a.m., bandaids for when a choice to jump off a rock was made, committing to get into Lake Crescent when we decided to jump in. We walked away feeling like we have a new friend in our life, which was icing on top of the cake for our perfect day. Thank you so much!”

— Casey & Jarrett @ Olympic

“They were incredible throughout the planning phase. They were on top of all the nuances of an adventure elopement and kept us up-to-date, including road and weather conditions, leave no trace principles, contingency plans, and more. Wilderpines is top notch and exceeded our expectations.”

— Monica & Nic @ Mt. Rainier
