If you’ve always dreamed of your wedding day being a real-life fairy tale, look no further for your Happily Ever After inspiration! Philip and Sarah inspire us in one of the most romantic fairy tale elopements we’ve ever seen. Hidden deep in the forests of Germany is Burg Eltz, a medieval castle that features some classic Bavarian charm. Mix that with the misty, wooded setting and the rustic Fall foliage and you’ve got yourself a storybook ending ready to unfold! If you’ve been thinking of eloping, this elopement right here is the perfect inspiration to show that you don’t need much to make a perfect and magical day!

At sunrise Philip met Sarah in an old village nearby the castle where they saw each other for the first time and then headed through the forests and into the castle. The whole journey in this rural area of Germany was absolutely mind-blowing! The fall tones mixed with the historical grounds made such a beautiful backdrop for the young couple. Check out that champagne shot and how stoked on life Philip and Sarah are!

Get ready to scroll along with us and enjoy the beauty of the day! How does that saying go again? Once Upon a Time…
