As a wedding and couples photographer based in Jasper National Park, I've photographed some pretty incredible elopements and proposals throughout the Canadian Rockies. But there's something extra special about hopping into a helicopter and heading somewhere most people will never get to experience. Imagine exchanging vows on a remote mountaintop, surrounded by towering peaks, with hardly another soul in sight. Whether you're planning an adventurous elopement or a surprise proposal, a helicopter experience is one heck of a way to make it memorable! If you've been toying with the idea of taking your love to new heights (quite literally!), here are a few reasons why I think it's worth considering.
When you choose to elope or get engaged with a helicopter flight tour, you’re instantly setting yourself apart from the rest. Not only is taking a heli ride to your chosen location an easy option when you're not wanting to hike in your wedding day clothes, but it also offers the opportunity to explore some of the most breathtaking, remote locations in the Canadian Rockies that would otherwise be impossible to reach, especially in the wintertime.
Imagine soaring high above a seemingly endless sea of snow-capped mountains, winding rivers, and never-ending forests as you and your partner prepare to tie the knot or get engaged. The experience is truly unique and will be something you and your partner will never forget.
Plus, if you’re looking to capture those special moments, a helicopter elopement is the perfect opportunity to hire a wedding photographer (like me!). Not only can you get beautiful shots of the two of you on a rugged peak, but you can also have the photographer capture your proposal or wedding ceremony in some of the most stunning locations in the Canadian Rockies. The photos are always incredible and make for the most eye catching wall art and prints afterwards.
So if you’re looking for a truly unique and unforgettable experience, then consider a helicopter elopement or proposal with us as your photographers. You’ll get to explore some of the most beautiful places in the world, and you’ll be able to capture those special memories that you'll want to look back on for years to come.
