Amore Borealis: Make a ceremony lit by northern lights

It sounds like a dream – the trading promises as the sky dances you in green and purple colors – but in recent years, after astrotism has gone from a warm interest in public obsession, the mystical wedding of northern lights has made its way to reality.

One of the largest travel trends of 2025, according to the book, is “Noctourism”, with nearly two -thirds of travelers looking for dark sky.

Aurora borealis, or northern lights, are color strips that occur with the interaction of loaded solar particles and the upper atmosphere of the Earth. Last year, they were the most active who have been in two decades, even making a rare appearance in some of the 48 lower states.

Norwegian election planner Tanja Skoglund TS Photo Design added the Northern Dedes in its repertoire in 2022, at the suggestion of its ex-husband. “I live in high, a city in the Arctic who is locally known as Nordlysbyen“Or” the city of northern lights, “she said. With minimal light pollution, at high the lights are visible from late September to early April.

Mimets range from $ 6,200 to $ 9,300, and Skoglund helps customers with anything from suggesting where you go to the reindeer. But her main job is to get money shot under the aurora, and she has gone to extreme length to buy it.

Like the time in February 2023 when she brought her clients through a flash to the clear sky in Finland. She called her one of the most scary discs of her life.

“It was a full herb and we were lucky that the roads did not close,” she said. “But finally, the snow had disappeared. Can you imagine the couple’s joy, seeing Aurora Borealis for the first time in their life, their wedding night? That was fully worth it.”

There is, of course, bold ways to have the Aurora wedding experience. Reserve a wedding at ALESESKA Resort in Girdwood, Alaska (from $ 233 a night), and have their goalkeeper Aurora give you a northern light awakening call.

Or make a navigation on Norwegian fjordat in Hurtigruten or havila cruise lines and have your on board nuptials. Both lines have promises of northern lights during certain seasons, offering complete trips if you go out with empty hands.

Due to their flying nature, northern lights wedding tents tend to be descending. This is also the best for the photographer. (Costs start with $ 9,900.)

For him, if there are more than two people involved, things become complicated and “this is annoying for the couple,” she said. “I want them to be as free as possible. Of course, if you want to have the northern lights, you have to be open to do the ceremony too late during the day. Guests should be very open -minded. “

Everyone should also be heard that it can be greatly cool. “I always carry heaters of the hand and toes because I have crazy brides who want to wear their outfit with nothing [else]”She said.

In Fairbanks, Alaska, temperatures are so cold that the iPhones give up, said the ordained minister Elise Miller of the Golden Heart weddings. “We have a photographer who has special equipment for extreme cold, because it is Italy below zero when we are going to get there and we are doing this,” Miller said. “Electronic equipment hates cold”.

The request made Miller start offering Aurora weddings. “We kept calling and e -mail from couples asking,” Do you do that? “She said.

Thus, their wedding package Aurora Borealis Adventure was launched in 2022, with prices starting at $ 5,434.

For Miller’s weddings, the more merit guests – the greatest so far has been 30 people. The Coupleifti chooses a desired location from a list and for seven nights, the staff of the golden heart weddings are on the phone.

Each every day, they control both the weather and the prediction of the Alaska University Institute of Alaska. They are consulted with the couple after knowing how active Aurora and the changes of current visibility.

Coupleifi then calls whether they want to try for that night, or wait. But catching is that they only get one kick in it. Nightsdo extra nights will run you $ 2,612.50 in half an hour.

Coupleifti can wear head bulbs to be seen from camera to dark. If she wants, the bride can wear silk flowers. (Those truths would be lost in the cold.) Miller is the official.

“I will go there to my park, my mucus and my Arctic dresses, and I will perform the ceremony,” she said, mentioning that “we have to keep extremely while moving around us. Almost almost like Old -time photography, to get those perfect shots. “
