If you’re traveling to Alaska with a surprise proposal in mind, Juneau, Alaska should be at the top of the list. Especially for those with adventurous hearts! With its proximity to picturesque mountains, blue flowing glaciers, and abundant wildlife, Juneau is the total package. The best time to visit Juneau is late spring and summer when the days are warm, and the wildflowers bloom.  It is also the best time to do whale watching (though the whale statue is up year round)! When Tyler reached out to me to plan his surprise proposal in Juneau, Alaska, he told me he used to come here as a kid and that he couldn’t think of a better place to propose.

Then we added this amazing dress from Leah Maria Couture to the client closet, which fit her perfectly. For the cherry on top, we hired the very talented Devyn Reece to do her hair and makeup.

They pulled up their xtratuf boots, snuggled up to stay warm, and caught snowflakes on their tongues.

What if… and hear me out… What if you traded in themed napkins and seating charts for you, your partner, a mountaintop, and the sky as your wetness? I want to give you 5 tips to plan your Alaska adventure elopement with intention.

When fireweeds bloom depends on the weather and climate.
