Kathy & Daniel
One of the things I (Henry) loved most about Kathy and Daniel’s Seychelles elopement was how open the couple was to including fun and spontaneous moments into their day. From the moment we arrived in Seychelles, there was this feeling of freedom. With no cars on the island and limited cell service, all the stresses of everyday life seemed to melt away making room for us all to slow down, breathe, connect with nature and truly immerse in the experience of Kathy and Daniel’s wedding.
The Couple and Their Decision to Plan an Elopement in Seychelles
When Kathy and Daniel first reached out, they already knew they wanted to plan a Seychelles elopement. To be 100% honest, I (Henry) did not know much about the island at that time. But, as they described their wedding vision, I could not help but get excited.
After talking with the couple, I learned that they wanted a tropical elopement. As the couple was coming from Europe, the closest options were other locations in Europe or in Africa. Seychelles was their top choice so we went all in and started planning their Seychelles elopement.
One of the things we had to consider when it came to planning their elopement in Seychelles was the couple’s children. When they first booked me, Kathrin and Daniel had only one daughter. However, just a few months after they booked, they found out they were pregnant! By the time I met up with them in person, their youngest was already starting to walk.
Not only did this add a really fun element to the whole experience, but it also added a bit of uncertainty in terms of knowing how to plan their elopement timeline. During the planning process, we talked about how much time the couple wanted to spend together as a family vs how much time they wanted to spend with each other. After some careful planning, we created a flexible timeline that allowed the couple to be spontaneous and decide what kind of adventure they wanted in the moment.
