A Blush Bridal Cape for This Adventurous Cliffside Wedding in Iceland

Stylish Iceland Wedding

Is adventure calling you to grab your tux and gown and head off into rugged landscapes to say “I Do”? Jaira + Daniel certainly answered the call when they decided to plan their Pre-Covid micro wedding in Iceland! Frost and Fire (which totally sounds like it came right out of Game of Thrones!) is a boutique hotel that offers breathtaking views of the valleys, hills and hot springs of Southern Iceland. J + D were 100% on board for the Icelandic experience when they hiked down to a misty waterfall for their newlywed session. We’ll let them share why they decided that a destination wedding was perfect for them:

We are adventurous by nature and thought our big day should reflect the essence of our relationship and some of our favorite moments together. What better than to get married at the edge of a cliff? We were initially prepared to simply elope in Iceland but we were lucky enough to have family and friends who were willing to take the adventure along with us.

ISKRA Photography captured epic, and we mean EPIC shots of this day. Are you ready to scroll along with us and have a look?

What to Wear for a Wedding in Iceland

J + D embraced the moody vibes of the surrounding landscapes and opted for a STUNNING floral Ange Etoiles gown from Milena’s Bridal and a classically handsome Tom Ford tux. Pinkcolours Makeup made J look absolutely ethereal. We had to know more about this gown and the perfect blush wedding cape that J paired with it:

When I went looking for dresses on Black Friday between shopping for Christmas gifts, I fell in love with this bohemian styled dress but wouldn’t settle until I visited a few other shops on a few more occasions. I eventually came back to the first boutique I visited and bought the dress I’d originally fell in love with. I guess in the case of my dress and my groom, “when you know, you know”.

Our Favorite Memory From The Wedding

The last few shots of our wedding photos were positioned near a large waterfall. By the end, we were soaking wet and freezing cold. We posed for pictures whispering and laughing about how cold we were but how the bride is willing to do anything for a good photo. We thought to ourselves, "This is why you get married in Iceland."
