Saying I do in the Mountains

The most incredible experience, starting off with a beautiful helicopter ride. We flew with views of the vast mountain ranges and the deep blues of Lake Wakatipu curved around the land, and beyond it, the vastness of New Zealand unfolded in every direction. There was laughter inside the headset, the kind that comes from disbelief—is this really happening?

A destination elopement like this isn’t about escape. It’s about choosing presence. Choosing each other. And choosing a beginning that feels as boundless as the mountains themselves.
