What day one of this incredible Madeira elopement looked like last month 😍 Nothing but the best of times with some newly found friends for life.
Mikaela & Ben spent 20h+ in a plane from Australia to turn their wedding into an amazing month-long honeymoon trip through Europe – traveling to Germany, Portugal, Croatia, Switzerland and Belgium. Since they already got engaged in Madeira years before, it was only fitting to choose to elope in what is (judging by the photos) definitely rightfully called „the flower island“ during this time of year.
We spent two days that simply felt like being on a fun road trip, exploring some of my favorite places in Madeira, and before meeting again to hang out in Lisbon AND Belgium, ended our stay on the island with a casual afternoon of go-karting. Gotta do what you gotta do.
And speaking of Belgium – a week after their elopement, it took one single message to convince me to join them for a 5-day camping trip and book some flights as well as a weekend ticket to watch the F1 Grand Prix in Spa with them lol.
What a joy to call something that makes me connect with some of the most amazing people I ever met my job.
Until next time, Aussies 🇦🇺
