Explore destinations like Lake Garda, Lake Eibsee, or the hidden gems of Switzerland for a one-of-a-kind lakeside celebration.

Planning Your Lakeside Elopement

Here are some of our tips when planning your lakeside elopement. First, be mindful of the season. Summer offers the best weather for a lakeside wedding, but spring and autumn also bring beautiful landscapes and fewer crowds (however the potential of a rainy day is much higher). Our lake elopement packages ensure you have everything covered, from local permits to finding the ideal lakeside spot for your ceremony. Don’t forget to consider the wind—lakes can get breezy, so you may want to choose a secure hairstyle or consider light wraps for added comfort. For an extra special touch, incorporate lake-themed elements into your decor, such as nautical accents or floral arrangements that reflect the natural surroundings.

When planning a lakeside elopement, choose your ceremony time carefully to take advantage of the best natural light. Sunset is a particularly popular time for lakeside weddings, offering a stunning golden glow over the water.

If you're feeling adventurous, consider adding a boat ride or a lakeside picnic to your celebration, and create unique and memorable moments. Our experienced wedding planners at Somewhere Crazy will help you plan all the details, including local experiences like lakefront dining, a traditional boat ride, or a romantic walk along the shore, making your lake elopement truly unforgettable. And if you’re feeling extra adventurous, you and your partner could also jump into the lake - which makes for incredibly fun photos!
