As soon as your booking is confirmed, we’ll set you up on your Elopement Planning Portal where you can keep track of all your valuable resources. First, you have our 100-page Elopement Handbook, full of information about eloping in Scotland - from tips on creating your vision, how to pick a location, ideas for what to do, who to include, how to tell your friends and family about your elopement, and even how to choose your attire! Let this handbook guide and inspire you for crafting your elopement vision. Then we have our extensive Planning Questionnaire to help you brainstorm and share your vision with us, including questions (and suggestions) about your ceremony, photo/video coverage, florals, beauty, music, food, activities, and anything else you can think of for your elopement. This will be the foundation on which we make our planning recommendations, so there is no rush or time limit on how long you spend filling it out.

Once we receive your Questionnaire back, we will start exploring elopement locations using two of our most valuable resources: our Locations Guide and interactive Travel Map. We'll also send you personalised recommendations based on the priorities you highlighted in your questionnaire. These can be based on a specific area of interest (e.g. Glencoe), a type of scenery or accessibility preference (e.g. by the ocean or a mountainous hiking location), or based on a particular accommodation option that we think fits your vision really well (e.g. castle with enough room for 10 people to stay).

After we choose your general elopement location, we can send you further recommendations for nearby accommodation, dining, or activities to explore.

Next we will explore the florists near your elopement location and put together a floral order. For fresh florals, we can arrange pickup and bring them to you. If you prefer dry florals, we can arrange to have them delivered to your accommodation in advance (once booked).

If you would like to book any other elements (hair and makeup, videography, music, activities, food, etc.) then we will send you local recommendations and help you find the perfect fit. All booking contracts and payments can be made directly with the additional suppliers. We will then create a group email thread so you can complete the booking contracts and payments directly.

Once any additional elements are booked, we will work on a first draft of your itinerary - including sunrise and sunset, arrival times for everyone, prep and getting ready expectations, travel times between locations, when your ceremony begins, photo coverage beginning and ending times, dining reservations, and anything else you need to keep track of.

Conor will be in touch to discuss how you would like your ceremony to flow, what you'd like to include, and brainstorm some things you might want to do during the ceremony. If you'd like to have a legal ceremony, we can help you choose one of our affiliated legal celebrants. You will be responsible for completing your marriage paperwork, but we are certainly here to help. Our Legal Paperwork Guide is accessible from your portal at any time. We recommend reading it in advance and compiling all the information/documents you will need to apply. We will remind you when the 3-month mark is approaching too, so you can get ready to submit your applications.

About 2-4 weeks before your elopement, we will also invite you to our Final Call to go over the plans for your elopement - including information, maps for the locations, the final itinerary, and everyone's contact details. We will also create a WhatsApp group chat so you can easily get in touch with us if you need anything. Your final payment will be due one month before your elopement.

Your elopement day is here! We will be by your side the whole time, making sure everything goes smoothly. Not only will we take care of the ceremony and photography, but we'll also be there to hold your jackets, remind you to drink water, drive to your ceremony, be your tour guides, be your hiking buddies, and overall, be your Scotland friends you know and trust. We will also bring some helpful elopement supplies, and everything you need for a Wild Picnic after your ceremony. If the weather does't cooperate, we can set up in your accommodation (if permitted), or we can head to a nearby restaurant!

Within 1-3 days, we will send you some sneak peeks to share with your family and friends while you wait for your full gallery. Then you just have to sit back and relax while we carefully curate and edit your full gallery of photos from your day. This usually takes between 4-8 weeks during peak season. After you have receive your online photo gallery, we can help you design a wedding album that’s just right for you, or order your own products directly from your digital gallery. You can expect albums within 5 weeks of ordering, and prints within just a few days! Everything will arrive beautifully packaged like the gifts they are, right to your home, ready to be cherished.
