Adventure Elopements, for Bold Couples

Sure, you could get married inside or get to your elopement by car, but why do that when you could take a helicopter or seaplane to an epic, secluded spot in BC’s beautiful backyard?

For nature lovers who dream of saying their vows on a mountaintop, secret beach or in front of a flowing waterfall, there’s nothing better than an Adventure Elopement. Your Young Hip & Married officiant will facilitate a short ceremony while your elopement photographer captures every scenic, special memory.

Check out our helicopter and seaplane elopement package details below!

Couldn’t have asked for a better team to get us married! We wanted something quick and meaningful and we got all that and more. Beth worked with us to create the perfect little ceremony and our photographer Sarah was awesome at capturing all the special moments during and as we wandered around by the lake. Shout out to Sky Helicopters (and our pilot, Aaron) for an awesome adventure and the thoughtful gift.

Everyone was super communicative and great to work with. We’ve bragged about how easy and awesome the whole thing was to all our friends so we figured we’d brag about it here too. Thanks again to the team at Young Hip and Married for such an amazing experience xx

Our Helicopter Elopement could not have been more perfect!! The sun was shining, it was warm and the snow was deep! Young Hip & Married took all the stress out of our “big day.” They were on their A Game from the beginning and I couldn’t have asked for anything more from them.

My husband and I couldn’t say greater things about working with Young Hip and Married for our big day. They were so great and easy to work with and made the whole experience from beginning to finish enjoyable.

We were looking for a fun way to elope and from the second we met Shawn and Erica, they did not let us down. They made the experience light and fun and were so easy going. It was all about us and the experience we were after. We took a helicopter tour to the top of a mountain which had incredible views. The ceremony with Shawn was super fun and the photography from Erica took our breathes away.

We couldn’t recommend this company more and now we have an amazing memory to look back on with incredible pictures we hold near and dear to our hearts. If you are getting married, they are the best and they are great to work with.

Erika officiated our helicopter elopement and she was wonderful! She was super warm, caring, and fun. We appreciated how she took an interest in us as people, and that was a big part of what made our ceremony feel perfect.

The entire Young,Hip & Married team was excellent as well! Dayna was always very responsive and helpful and we felt supported the whole way through. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend YH&M to anyone seeking a unique elopement experience.

Did a helicopter elopement with Young Hip & Married and it was amazing! We loved our officiant Beth and how she worked with us to completely personalize our ceremony! Also loved our photographer Erica who helped us feel less awkward in front of the camera and made us laugh shaking off the nerves! The pilots at SKY Helicopters were aweeeesome and made our ride so fun (and safe!)!

It’s beautiful up there guys! Highly recommend Young Hip & Married and their helicopter elopement package! Thanks for the unforgettable day!

Our big day will never be one to forget thanks to YH&M! Beth was our officiant, and let us tell you we couldn’t have asked for a better officiant! She too was full of personality, and created such a beautiful script for our intimate ceremony at Widgeon Creek.

Our photographer, Erica, was amazing. Despite feeling awkward when taking photos (we’re not ones to pose for mushy gushy photos) she had us laughing throughout, and even though awkward we felt comfortable.

We couldn’t have asked for a better crew from YH&M! Now we fully understand why people say your wedding day is the best day of your life. 150% recommend YH&M. We will be talking about this for the rest of our lives. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts! We are SO damn happy!

We were planning to do a small yet special ceremony. As we were researching ideas, we came across Young Hip & Married! And I am extremely glad we found them!

We did a helicopter elopement with Erika as our officiant and Erica as our photographer. The whole experience was so amazing, and exceeded our expectations by far. We couldn’t be happier with our ceremony.

Everybody at Young Hip & Married did a great job! The helicopter ride was very beautiful and we landed by a beautiful lake and got married there! Looking at the photos and videos, it is everything we wanted! We recommend Young Hip & Married to everyone who is looking for a unique and romantic experience for their ceremony.

After over 33 years together, we were looking for something private and unique, as well as LGBTQ+ inclusive. Everything was so easy to arrange, and so much more than we had ever dreamed of. We still talk about it daily, how joyful we were and how stunningly beautiful the location, and what a perfect adventure the experience was. Beth, our officiant, brought the perfect words and energy; and our photographer Erica captured moments will treasure forever. Our families/friends, as we now share our photos/video, keep commenting on how it was the perfect ceremony for us, thus nobody has felt left out. 10/10!!!
