Calling the wanderlust! Tara (an Aussie) and Michael were looking for a spectacular Alaskan experience for their wedding ceremony. An experience they would share with her parents who were coming across the globe to witness.
Just a short scenic helicopter ride to the ceremony site, this couple married out at a remote location over looking Knik Glacier. The couple opted to have their own officiant. Tara didn't like the idea of being out on a glacier, but liked the idea of being at a private location where they wouldn't have hikers coming across their special moment.
The bride got ready privately, enjoying professional hair and make up.
The couple chose to have a private first look just outside the vacation rental where they were staying.
Erica Rose their photographer took the couple up Hatcher Pass to take private couple photos before they joined family members for their service.
Family joined them for a flight out above Knik Glacier for a very private and unique wedding ceremony.
This bridal bouquet was my favorite of the season!
Look at these stunning local peonies!
Not a soul in sight!
After the ceremony the couple opted to provide guests with a rose petal toss and then toasted to love with sparkling wine in our vintage flutes.
The couple rounded out their special day with a beautiful meal at a local restaurant. We delivered a naked cake with fresh flowers and a cake stand to the Raven's Perch.

MEET REBECCA
Hey there! I am Rebecca Kopperud, a born and bred Alaskan, as well as the owner and chief designer behind
La Boum Events.
I specialize in micro-weddings because they are a unique and special type of event focused on bringing a small group of people together to celebrate a big life event. I have been witness to transformational and intimate moments among family and friends that I can truly say are nothing short of magical.
I love helping my clients find that perfect location, orchestrate great food and drinks, schedule out time for them to connect, and create a beautiful table setting. Each time I love hearing a collective whispered "wow!" I live for these moments and can't wait to work with you to find your perfect moment in Alaska or anywhere in the world!
I have been in business offering unique micro-weddings for years, long before it became popular. We have developed sought after industry connections, and a quality of service that is unsurpassed. You simply won’t find anything cookie-cutter here. Everything truly is about you, and your special day.
We take on a limited amount of clients, so we can focus on personalization and quality. We offer a completely unique, unbundled experience so you can have exactly what you want and nothing you don’t.
