Check Out This Epic Roadtrip + Learn How You Can Go On a Honeymoon Roadtrip!
Recap of Pat and Lauren’s Honeymoon Roadtrip
Pat and Lauren eloped in Alaska and then went on an epic roadtrip around the state! Our adventure started in Seward. After flying into Anchorage and picking up their marriage license, the two drove down to Seward. They spent their first day exploring downtown and settling into Alaska. The next morning we hopped on a boat and visited Shearwater Cove, a beautiful off the grid yurt island full of adventure😍 This place is perfect for kayaking, hiking, and unplugging.
We played games, laughed a lot, drank beers, and hung out until the sun was getting low on the horizon. We hiked up to the top of the cliffs where the couple got into their wedding attire. After a joyous first look overlooking the ocean, the two got ready to say their vows.
Rock, paper, scissors determined that Pat was first to say his vows🙌 Take notes folks! These two knew how to make their day fun. After vows that had us all giggling and in tears, the two got friggin hitched.
We explored around the cliffs and took in the never ending light that seemed to pour over the horizon. Day light in Alaska persists for a long time which makes for epic photos!
The next day Pat and Lauren headed off the island to go catch a boat tour of Resurrection Bay. It’s a great way to see wildlife, glaciers, and enjoy a meal n Fox Island. When they got back they spent their first night in Bambi, Vows with Views glamping hotel on wheels. We’ll tell you more about Bambi later 😜
The couple’s roadtrip took them on a boat adventure in the Chugash Mountains, to Palmer for a nights stay, to Talkeetnah for an ATV tour and time to check out the cute town, and finally to Denali. In Denali they went hiking, had incredible local meals, hopped on a bus for a tour full of wildlife and mountain views, and got to see the tallest mountain in all of the US!
Lauren and Pat had a memorable honeyloping experience in Alaska! Roadtripping for your honeymoon is the raddest way to explore your elopement location.
