Together we are a group of creatives based in the Scottish Highlands who specialise in well considered and imaginative elopements.

We have recently joined forces to collaborate in a positive response to the unpredictable events surrounding us and focus on what we CAN offer.

For anyone planning a wedding this year, no doubt you’ve been thrown many a curve ball but Love is not cancelled, quite the opposite.

Each with a different element, we know how each other tick, work really well as a collective and look for nothing more than to help you imagine your hideaway wedding.
