Adrianne & Ken’s Upper Peninsula Beach Elopement

Adrianne and Ken had an absolutely incredible elopement day exploring a waterfall and secret beach in the Upper Peninsula!

These two brought along one of their dogs, Loretta, who was so adventurous! She is adorable and also a much more graceful hiker than I am.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
We started the day by hiking to some waterfalls. Adrianne and Ken asked another couple hiking the trail if they would sign their marriage license as witnesses, and it turned out they were in the Upper Peninsula celebrating their 30th wedding anniversary! ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
After the waterfalls, we hiked into a gorgeous beach that we had completely to ourselves. Adrianne and Ken exchanged vows with complete privacy, the sound of the waves drowned out their vows so only the other heard them. It was beautiful and intimate, and the absolute best way to get married.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
After their vows, Adrianne and Ken popped some champagne, threw sticks for Loretta, and took a walk in the water.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
I am so happy that I was able to be part of Adrianne and Ken’s day and capture their stunning elopement. Congratulations to you both!
