Helicopter Glacier Weddings 

Our most popular and unique Alaska destination wedding location is an Alaska glacier landing and what a location to elope in Alaska.  We land at elevations of 1,800 to 3,500 feet, with ice up to 2,500 feet deep below our feet, mountain peaks rising a mile or more above us and massive icefalls that dwarf the Empire State Building, giving you the feeling that you are the only people on earth! Flying by helicopter provides a view that is simply breathtaking. Words can barely describe the experience! During the flight you may spot mountain goats and maybe a bear or deer, fly over two glaciers and see part of the 1,500 square mile ice field that feeds the glaciers of Northern Southeast Alaska. The flight is worth videotaping, so bring your camera(s).   Our standard season for glacier weddings is April – September.  Just so you know, we will be asking for your individual weights.

We worked with Buzz Feed on a commercial that features our Two landing wedding package, check it out – Link We landed on the Herbert Glacier, which is where our Ever After and Gold Rush Ultimate helicopter glacier weddings also take place.

A photo collection of wedding couples on the glaciers can be seen toward the bottom of this page.
