The Destination Wedding Experience

Lithuanian couple Giedre and Rytis celebrated their love with a legal elopement in Norway, surrounded by six cherished guests and the majestic fjord landscape. Their ceremony, officiated by a humanist, beautifully incorporated the ancient Norse handfasting ritual, enhanced by the enchanting melodies of a fiddle player. Following their heartfelt vows, they toasted their new beginning with wedding cake and enjoyed a delicious fjord charcuterie BBQ lunch. An exhilarating SUV adventure photoshoot captured their joy, before some well-deserved relaxation at their hotel, and finally, a romantic rustic barn dinner to conclude their unforgettable day.

Time Of Year

Consider a May wedding in Flåm and Aurland, where the dramatic Norwegian fjords transform into a canvas of spring's awakening, much like Giedre and Rytis experienced. While average temperatures range from 4-9°C, with lows around -1°C and highs up to 14°C, the crisp air and often clear skies provide a refreshing atmosphere. This pre-peak season offers fewer tourist crowds, allowing for more intimate moments and unimpeded views for photography. With approximately 17 hours of daylight, the soft, extended golden hour light is perfect for capturing the majestic landscapes, from snow-capped peaks to vibrant green valleys. Embrace the unique charm of Norway in May for an unforgettable and breathtaking wedding experience.
