Soul & Sky Weddings — 1.5–5+ Day Elopements Where Your Vows Are Wrapped in the Adventure of a Honeymoon
I'm Kate Okenatez-Mahoney — the photographer and elopement designer behind Soul & Sky Weddings. I create adventure luxe elopements for travel-loving couples so you can truly experience Alaska and hidden-gem destinations around the world, without any of the logistics landing on your plate.

WHAT I CREATE
My obsession? Elopements built on unique, adventure-luxe lodging, immersive experiences, and personal details that make it unmistakably yours.
Think of this adventure as *less* of a "wedding day" and *more* like a honeymoon with your vows woven into it:
...The lodging I find is the unique home base your whole adventure lives around— not just put you near it...
...The experiences are built to lean into what makes the place special, so you can explore in a unique way...
...And the days are paced so experiences have room to imprint and be felt without rush, because time is what creates access to the moments that couldn't have been planned.
This is why my elopements start at 1.5 days. Not to fill a timeline, but so you can actually slow down, explore, feel, and enjoy where you are — not just rush through it.

HOW I SUPPORT YOU
As your elopement designer and photographer, I guide every step from vision to final gallery. Location scouting, adventure-luxe lodging, permits, travel flow, ground experiences — fully handled. You show up. I've quietly taken care of the rest.
With a passport stamped across six continents and a career built on complex project management, I know how to source the right partners, design the logistics, and coordinate every moving piece — so you stay present with each other the whole time.
And while all of that unfolds around you, I'm documenting how it felt, not just how it looked.

WHY ALASKA & WHERE TO START
Alaska is *always* on my mind. Why?
Because it’s not just scenery—it’s an experience.
The wild beauty, the bucket-list access, the incredible guides, the light at 11pm that does things you didn't know light could do — it all comes together for elopements that couldn't happen anywhere else. I spend extended time in Alaska each year, which means I know where to go, who to call, and how to bring your unique vision to life.
If you're not sure where to start, my Enchanted Canopy Collection packages featured here on Wandering Weddings are a great place to begin:
--All-inclusive Alaska elopement experiences — fully designed, ready to go, and with personalizations to make it yours always welcome.

CUSTOM & GLOBAL
For couples excited about something fully bespoke — in Alaska or anywhere in the world — I build custom elopements around exactly where you want to go and how you want to feel when you get there.
We’ll choose the right place + right season, and I'll design lodging, access, immersive experiences, and partners— then document the whole story — with detail management fully handled, start to finish.

— START WITH A FEELING —
You don't need to have it figured out. Most couples come to me with a feeling or a place they've always wanted to experience — not a plan. Wispy ideas are 100% welcome here.
