Sometimes when you take big risks you get great rewards. Planning an outdoor wedding in Iceland in November is a big risk. Hurricane force winds, sleet, snow, rain, frost or all of the above are just a few of the things that might make standing outside in a wedding dress a bit unpleasant.

"These genes can't leave the country" is what Sæunn said when she first saw Birgir who was living abroad at the time. When he moved back home they started dating and have since then built a life and a family together here in Iceland.

They had decided to travel to Iceland when Hans casually asked if they should get married while they were here. Ricardo agreed and they got married under a beautiful waterfall on the day Iceland celebrates Gay Pride in August.

The ceremony was in the oldest church in Reykjavík and  the reception was located in an old theater which in our opinion is one of the most beautiful venues in Reykjavík.

This adventure started in a church just outside Reykjavík and then took us through lava fields, snow, black sand, a lighthouse and even inside a waterfall.

Have you ever laughed for 15 hours straight? No?... neither have we, but Jenny the bride of this wedding we shot in May can tell you all about it. She will go down in the history books for being the happiest bride ever.

Trees are hard to find in Iceland and there is this ongoing joke here that if you get lost in an Icelandic forrest the only thing you have to do is stand up. But there is a spot in the far east that has a decent amount of trees, so decent in fact that you might even call it a forrest, Hallormsstaðaskógur to be exact.
