Nick and Bri’s love story started in a very 2020 way with a swipe on a dating app during quarantine. After a little ghosting and a second chance, their connection grew into something lasting. Five years later, they decided to skip the stress of a big wedding and celebrate their relationship with a forest elopement in Olympic National Park.
When most people picture Olympic National Park, they think of rugged beaches or mountain overlooks. The forest is one of the most underrated places to elope. Towering ferns, moss-draped trees, and quiet trails create a setting that feels like your own private world. The light filtering through the canopy makes the whole place feel magical.
Nick and Bri wanted something that felt private and meaningful, and the forest was exactly that. They loved the variety of locations we chose for them. Each spot felt intentional, peaceful, and perfectly matched to the kind of day they envisioned. That is one of the best parts of eloping in Olympic National Park. With so many trails, forests, and overlooks, it can feel overwhelming at first. Having someone who knows the park inside and out makes it easy to find the right locations for the experience you want.
One of the biggest decisions couples face when planning an elopement is choosing where to exchange vows. In Olympic National Park there are endless choices, from rugged beaches to mountaintop views. The secret is knowing which locations truly fit your vision.
Some couples want a dramatic overlook, others want a quiet forest clearing, and some want a little of both. For Nick and Bri, the forest felt like home. We guided them to trails lined with glowing moss, fern-covered paths, and quiet spots that gave them the privacy they were looking for. These are the kinds of places that most visitors would never stumble upon, but they become the perfect backdrop when you know where to look.
Nick and Bri’s day reflected who they are as a couple. Their relationship has always been about adventure and shared experiences, from late-night D&D campaigns to traveling for metal concerts. Eloping in Olympic National Park gave them the freedom to celebrate in a way that felt authentic to them.
Every location we explored gave them time to slow down and enjoy the beauty of the park without distractions. They exchanged vows surrounded by mossy trees, wandered along fern-lined trails, and soaked in the stillness that only a forest can provide.
If you are dreaming of an elopement that feels secluded and timeless, the forest is the perfect choice. It offers privacy, beauty, and a sense of calm that you will not find in busier locations. Unlike popular overlooks or beaches, a forest elopement in Olympic National Park allows couples to focus entirely on each other and the moment.
With our all-inclusive team, the entire experience is stress-free. From florals and hair and makeup to officiating and video, we handle every detail so you can simply show up and enjoy the day.
Nick and Bri’s elopement is such a reminder of how personal and beautiful a forest ceremony can be. If you are starting to plan your own day, now is the perfect time to begin. We are booking 2026 elopements in Olympic National Park and would love to help you find the perfect locations that will make your day unforgettable.
One of the biggest parts of creating an amazing elopement experience is finding locations that feel like they were made just for you. Olympic National Park is huge and filled with options, but not every trail or overlook will give you the kind of privacy and atmosphere you want for your vows.
That is where we come in. We spend countless hours exploring the park, keeping track of how locations change with the seasons, and noting which places are best for different times of day. When you work with us, we help narrow down the options to spots that fit your vision, whether that is a quiet forest clearing, a mossy riverside, or a trail with views that stretch for miles.
Nick and Bri trusted us to guide them through that process, and the locations we picked together became some of their favorite parts of the day. That is what makes your elopement feel effortless—you get to focus on each other, while we make sure the backdrop is unforgettable.
Nick and Bri’s day is such a beautiful reminder that your wedding does not have to follow tradition to be meaningful. Olympic National Park has endless opportunities for couples who want something different, whether that is saying vows in a mossy forest, exchanging rings on a wild beach, or hiking to a mountain overlook for portraits at sunset.
We are now booking 2026 elopements and intimate weddings throughout Olympic National Park, including favorite locations like Lake Crescent, the Hoh Rain Forest, Rialto Beach, Hurricane Ridge, and tucked-away forest trails that feel like your own private world. Our all-inclusive team takes care of every detail so you can focus on celebrating together in one of the most breathtaking places in Washington.
If you are dreaming of an Olympic National Park forest elopement or a small wedding on the coast or in the mountains, we would love to help you start planning.
