Adventure elopements are a type of wedding ceremony where the couple chooses to exchange vows in a remote outdoor location. It is typically a more intimate and casual event compared to a traditional wedding and the focus is on the natural surroundings and the couples connection to each other rather than on traditional customs and wedding guests.
Read MoreWe had a blast with these two at The Quarry! The Quarry is a privately owned quarry in Harpers Ferry, West Virginia that makes you feel like you are in the tropics with it’s crystal clear water and white sand beach. These two danced to their favorite song, practicing their first dance for their wedding next year. They took the row boat out for a little spin. They had a splash fight and since they were already wet, they went for a swim too. We can’t wait to have fun with these two again next year when they officially tie the knot!

The new owners have been adding onto this property for the past several years and are ready to open for private weddings and events.
