Traveling to Remote Areas
Switzerland boasts awe-inspiring locations, often nestled in remote areas. It's essential to factor in travel time when planning your elopement.

You’ve traveled to Switzerland - why not make a vacation out of it! We’ll gladly recommend a few trips to do while you’re here.
Getting Ready
The getting ready phase sets the tone for the entire day. Take the time to savor the moments of preparation, from hair and makeup to putting on your wedding attire. By allowing ample time, you can eliminate any stress or rush, ensuring a calm and enjoyable experience. Consider choosing a cozy accommodation where you can unwind, surrounded by the tranquility of the Swiss countryside or the urban charm of Zurich. Be it an Airbnb, a quaint chalet or the suite of your hotel.
The Couple Shoot
Switzerland's breathtaking landscapes are a photographer's paradise, providing the perfect backdrop for a couple photoshoot. Allocate enough time to explore the surroundings, from majestic mountains to serene lakeshores. Let your photographer guide you to the most enchanting spots, capturing intimate moments that reflect your love and the beauty of the Swiss scenery. Embrace the serenity and allow yourselves to get lost in the magic of the moment. You don’t want to feel rushed, so make sure to plan in enough time, especially if you’re thinking of doing a hike.
The Ceremony
The ceremony is the heart of your elopement wedding, the very special moment when you exchange vows and declare your love for each other. Choose a meaningful location that resonates with your vision—a mountainside, a secluded hut, or a lakeside setting. If you’re booking one of our celebrants, the ceremony will take anywhere from 20 to 40 minutes, if you’re exchanging your vows in private you can take all the time you need. Allow yourselves to immerse yourselves fully in the experience. Take in the surroundings, share your heartfelt vows, and celebrate your union without any rush or distractions.
Crafting the ideal elopement wedding timeline is essential to ensure a relaxed and unhurried experience, particularly in Switzerland's enchanting landscapes. From traveling to remote areas and embracing the beauty of the journey, to savoring the moments of getting ready and capturing intimate couple shots, each step should be given the time it deserves.
